Hello. Could this wine rack sit vertically instead of the position in the photos i.e. would it stand on its side? Thanks.

Yes and no. It will sit upright and theoretically could hold 6 bottles, but as the bottles rest on the plastic cross bars/hinge with less stable (hinge) vs the wire with 2 area's of support front and back. When I tried it the bottles were tippy, but did stay in place. The hinge part has to be in the center of the bottle to maintain balance in the side up position. If you are using in a shallow cupboard for example, if the back of the bottle is even with the back of the rack in this position, the bottle will be to front heavy and slip out. Free standing or in a deep cupboard, should be OK.

There is a vertical panel in the back - you will see the hindges. Bring that panel forward - it may be kind of difficult ( I had kind of a hard tIme moving it), but the panel does move. Just bring it to the center - to support the table portion of the rack. In terms of weight, it is very sturdy. I have a couple of books, pencil holder, wine glass and bottle (smile) on mine, to add to the enjoyment of my reading/ writing.

Not stack-able. But they look great vertically and can hold one more bottle of wine if placed this way. I have two side by side. Sturdy and minimalist.

I don't think so. If it's wider than regular wine bottle it's not going to fit. It could be taller, but not wider.

yes, one can flip the rack, but that adversely affects the space in the next slot.larger bottles (chardonnay) fit with just a little drag on them.

I guess it would be fine to position it vertically instead of horizontally. But if you did that, I'd be careful not to put too much weight on the separating shelf in the center of the unit.

You could probably leave off the wine rack, but would still have the space between the drawers and shelves. I'm afraid it might also affect the stability of the piece. There are some other racks by the same company that do not have the wine rack.

Mine is on the floor. I put felt circles on the legs as we have wood floors. It is actually a pretty nice wine rack - doesn't take up too much space

I do not believe it would be tall enough. Not only that but it isn't the most stable stand. I would be afraid to put champagne glasses on it for fear someone might bump it and make it fall.

yes, you could hang this wine rack under a counter top as long as the measurements of the counter top match or is larger than the rack. i do love mine

I'm actually not sure. I never put together the wine rack portion because I used it as an entryway table. I put the wine rack pieces in the attic. I never measured it. Sorry I wasn't much help.

You can but it will look a little odd. It can be put together without though and still function properly. Without the wine bottle holder piece it has a couple of wooden planks visible in the middle section. It wouldn't look bad though. Good luck

The unit is certainly strong enough, but I would not recommend using it for wine bottles. The length of the bottles and the height of the rack could likely lead to stability problems. I would find a more suitable style of rack.

yep! i have mine set up with the two cabinets, each with a moveable shelf. i did not install the wine rack. i have a very small dining room in my apartment and need to maximize storage space. i use this buffet to hold dishware, candlestick holders, tablecloths & napkins on left cabinet.. trivets, coasters, decorative accents in left drawer. all barware, cocktail accessories/tools, canned tonic, ice bucket, shaker, etc on right side. with a wall-mounted wine rack above the buffet that holds like 20 bottles plus 8-10 hanging pieces of stemware.

It will be no more than 12 inches, bottles only fit in the recessed portion of the top rack. I love this wine rack, matches my cabinets and have gotten lots of compliments on it too

No, placing the wine bottle on its side not recommended. The product packaging states "Do not store flat!".

I don't think it's meant to. I tried it and it did stand vertical, but it was completely straight and it didn't seem 100% stable.
