Baker's rack - no. I got wire shelving - 4 metal corner posts with
notches every inch; plastic collars that slide down the corner posts
and lock on the notches at your desired height; wire shelves with a
metal tube in each corner that slides over the collars and locks them
into place. They're most common in chrome, but mine is black. I use
"S" hooks to hang pots and pans on each end of the shelves.
