Would it hold up if I wanted to attach hanging wine glasses racks?

Maaaaybe. Wine glasses aren't very heavy but this thing isn't super stable to begin with so I would think there may be a risk of it tipping over if it becomes top heavy. Do yourself a favor, spend an extra $10 or $20 on something a little nicer that will last and look better. The column supports are just cheap plastic and don't look very great. I use this in my basement laundry room so I don't care about the look too much.

Yes it holds them quite well. I've used it for glass bottles, adult drinking glasses and shot glasses as well. It's very convenient. I've even used it for plastic containers when I ran out of room in the drying rack.

Hello, I think if you place the wine glasses on a tray first, and then place the tray on the bench, it will be fine. The surface of the bench isn't level enough to place the glasses on it by themselves. I will say though, that this is one STURDY bench, which has survived three years of Colorado weather - rain, hail, outrageous wind and subzero winters. And I can still sit my 200lb self on it without any wobbling or creakage of the bench whatsoever. You wouldn't know how strong this bench is just by looking at it, but it's really well-made.

Glass bottles are no problem for it. I have both plastic and glass bottles and when the rack is filled with only the glass bottles, it holds their weight very well and is very stable.

I think as long as it's installed properly it should hold. I have mine mounted in my laundry room and it can hold sweaters, shirts, and unmentionables, with no problems. Make sure to use anchors if you're installing it into drywall.

It may be possible depending on your tinkering skills. The little metal racks you would have to somehow clip to the shelf run perpendicular to the bottles and there's not a lot of clearance between them and the bottle. It won't hold most of my reds as is. So putting some sort of clip over the metal to mount it under the shelf might interfere with your ability to get many bottles of wine into it.

Yes it is really a wine rack. But some people, like myself, use it to hold towels.

Yes, very strong. Comes unfinished and requires some assembly. Very happy with the product. Oh, also will not hold large diameter bottles such as champagne wine bottles.

I agree with the other 2 responses--It is a great wine rack & will accommodate most bottles--if the bottles are really large, you may not be able to utilize all the spaces...you may have to use every-other-space, therefore the rack would not hold the total amount of bottles indicated....

Look is all personal preference, but in regards to stability- Our unit is certainly stable enough to hold liquor bottles, a wine opener, and lots of other bar tools on top. A little wood glue during construction of any piece of furniture is not a bad idea too. The construction is wood, not a composite like cheaper furniture.

I think it would work for glasses. I tested the strength of the shelves and they do give a bit under weight so if you really load the shelves up with heavy glasses they might bow under the weight and most certainly will bow over time. It wouldn't take much to add an extra piece of wood to help support the shelves if it looks like you glasses are a bit heavy for them. We have two of these cabinets, both in bathrooms and both have held up really well under normal use - both are quite full with various bottled liquids (meds, alcohol, mouthwash, lotions, etc.) and other items normally kept in a medicine cabinet. We were sure to screw the cabinet into studs though. I would certainly recommend that for use in a kitchen.

Yes it is definitely sturdy enough. I currently just have a decanter on top, but could easily hold several liquor bottles.

It is definitely strong enough. You can adjust the height of the top and center bar to allow for longer items like folded tablecloths on hangers. I used to sell vintage table linens and mine would fit on here without dragging. When you install the center bar have a ratchet available and wrench instead of the wrench provided. This will allow maximum tightening and secure the middle bar very well. Also, we have the rack fully loaded with clothing right now and it is easy to move and well balanced.

I believe so. Quite sure you can leave out the wine rack piece(s). Its not that solid that it would affect overall piece.

I bought that exact shelf for my DVD's and for that it works perfectly but, for Wine bottles I don't think it'll work well, each shelf can hold the weigh of about 4 or 5 bottles across (standing up, not tipped) but, you would have to anchor it to the wall otherwise the whole thing can tip over, also you might want to strap the bottles across front because anyone bumping into it or any movement will cause those bottles to fall off the shelves if not strapped down properly.

I have not used it wth glass bottles. But i don't see any reason why it wuldn't still hold them in the rack. I think that it will be fine.

I would think so. This is actually a great idea and one I had not thought of myself. You would need to be tall enough to reach up while holding the glass and the glass would be touching the ceiling. Or have a step stool handy. I see no difference in mounting the rack to the cabinet or the ceiling just as you mentioned toggle bolts would be best to ensure the ceiling could withstand the weight of the glasses. HOpe that helps
