IKEA Wine Racks: Any Good?
I'm wanting to getting a wine rack or two, because I want my wine to look like it's supposed to be there. I'm tired of having it on the floor or in some other place where it just looks like a pile of wine without any form or organization. I drink everything I buy within a month or two, so I am not too terribly concerned with creating temperature conditions ideal for aging or long-term storage. If I feel like doing some aging, which I probably won't do until I have a niece or nephew to lay down a case of Port for, I have a damp, pitch black basement with a fairly consistent 60-degree temp to do that in. I plan on draping a cloth over the rack to help keep dust off and protect from light and cats. I've been looking at the Hutten 9-bottle rack from IKEA. It seems right for me, because A) it will fit the space I have in mind, B) it fits in well with my decor and design sense, and C) the price is fucking brilliant for a factory worker like myself. If anybody reading this has one of these racks, or an IKEA wine rack in general, I have a couple questions before I pull the trigger on one or two: 1 - Are these racks good quality? I've had some bad experiences with flat-pack, IKEA-style furniture, so I'm very wary of it. 2 - Will a magnum fit in these racks? I buy magnums fairly regularly, and I'd like them to be in there with all of my standard bottles. The bottles they used to model it look like they might be magnum-sized, but I'd rather not risk it. If they don't, no biggie, I'll store them upright on a shelf. They'll be drunk within a week or two anyway. Much thanks in advance.
