I want to use this to organize canned veggies and fruits and the like - are the shelves wide enough for 3" cans?

Definitely not. Only big enough for spice jar containers on any given shelf.

My answer would be no... The bottom shelf is about 2 3/4". middle shelf is about 2 1/2", top shelf is about 2 1/4"... Think it would be tough to put those can sizes on each of the shelves. I have some bigger items on the top shelf and then all small spice items on the bottom two shelves.. Hope this helps..

Looks like the bottom one is about 2 5/8" to maybe 2 3/4" deep...hard to tell from the angle I was looking, but not more than 2 3/4"

Hello. In answer to your question. I believe not. Pill bottles, spices, small jars will work but not 3in. Cans. Sorry

the space is about 3 inches. BUT- personally, I wouldn't put fruit in it. Don't want it touching the wide metal bands. Unless you put some kind of say cheesecloth inside as a liner. Its pretty, but think best for plants, like my "Staghorn". Good luck.

I don't think it would hold up with heaven cans. It's meant for bathroom storage. The shelves are pressed board , not wood, held in by plastic plugs.

I'm not sure what it will ultimately hold, but I use it for storing my home canned foods and supplies and have had absolutely no sagging with the shelves full of quart and half gallon jars or pints double stacked.

Yes it can, because the rods holding the shelves come in four pieces. You could have a 3 shelf with the shelves closer together and another spaced a bit wider.

I checked as well. I agree with ChowHound that standard cans (14.5 oz contents) should fit fine. My shows a height "clearance" of just under 5 inches. I would not necessarily recommend putting a lot of heavy items on the shelf though - you may want simple store boxed goods, packaged pasta, or packaged soup mixes on the shelf itself. It seems sturdy but I just don't know if it would eventually bow due to excessive weight.

No. They are not wide enough. This is for lighter storage, like hand towels, cosmetics, or a smaller trash can.

They are great shelves but I agree with Carly that they are much shorter than you expect. I have two, one on top of the other and to get the cabinet space that I was looking for I should have purchased three of them. I think your idea might possibly work but if it doesn't, you'd have to go up with them. Good luck!

The shelves are adjustable so I'm sure it'll accommodate to ur needs. I use it for DVDs, blu ray and CDS, and it fits all of it. I'm not sure of the quantity it can hold.

Tight fit. You would have to drill your own holes to have shelf fit. For the width - it's 17.75 inches.

The shelves are screwed in and I have a gallon of water stored on the two bottom shelves. They weigh about 8.3 lbs ea. One gallon per shelf is all that will fit. If the cans aren't too heavy they should hold up quite well depending on how many cans and their weight.

I use this for my spices... I just took some spices off and put some cans on the shelves and they fit just fine... Hope that helps!

Yes the shelves do expand in width. I'm not sure what the maximum is, but they are sturdy. I use they to hold pantry items and they work quite well.

I just measured the height available for a can and and it was about 5 1/2 inches so whatever diameter can fit into 5 1/2 inches, I think it will work. We only have cans in ours. I can, but I don't think I would want to put my jars in this. I would feel somewhat uncomfortable with the glass jars being on their side, rolling and and moving to the bottom level. This storage unit is not heavy duty. Mine works fine for my purposes for storing cans of items I use frequently like canned soups, Bush beans, tomato sauce, chilies and such.

Yes but just make sure the dimensions are right for where you are planning to put this rack, I didn't and know I end up placing the rack some where else and not the original intention! I like that you can adjust the rack to fit the length of the cans you need to organize, works well with soda cans as well!

not really, I would have to measure to be positive, but the space between the shelves is about 3 to 4 inches I would say. Most large cans of vegetables are bigger than that. You would probably have to lay them down.I used them in my pantry that had 4 big shelves with 18" to 2' in between them. So I put one of these on each shelf. This way I can put small things in between these little shelves and then on top I have room for taller things. does that help?
