The Best Magnetic Spice Rack

To select a magnetic spice rack, first consider the space you have available in your kitchen. Do you have space to mount a steel mounting plate on the wall? If so, how large might that space be? Will you allow your spice containers to magnet to your refrigerator? What are your patterns of seasoning and how you will use your spice? If you only season with basic spices, consider models with fewer spice containers. If you have a serious limitation of counter space, consider one of the various types of wall mounted models. Cost is always a key decision point.
We will be looking at:

• Wall Mounted Units - Various Types
• Spice Containers Only - Mounted on Refrigerator or Steel Surface
• Magnetic Mounted Shelf Style Units
• Variations of the number and Types of Containers
• Mounting Racks Only - Jars purchased Separately

Wall Mount Choices

Kamenstein Magnetic Strip Model; Cost $49.00. This unit contains 12 spice tins. The system consists of three separate mounting strips where 4 tins magnet to one strip. Customer reviews give this unit a 4.1 our of 5 stars. This unit is more costly than some because the strips are color coated steel and are black, red and silver in color rather than flat steel coloring. If you need to separate the unit and disperse it in various areas of your kitchen - or if you just like the colors...this may be the unit for you.

Kamenstein Magnetic Rack with Free Spice Refills for 5 Years; Cost $39.99. Also by Kamenstein, this large square wall mount holds 12 spice tins. Just as before, they have clear lids for easy recognition. The unit has a customer review ranking of 3.8 out of 5 stars. For kitchens with a larger footprint of wall space for mounting- this might be a good choice.

Nellam Spice Rack with 9 storage jars and Measuring Spoon Set; Cost $15.98. The unit varies very little from what Kamenstein features. It also has storage canisters with clear lids and the tins magnet to a square wall mount. The Nellam unit offers a 9 spice jar alternative and includes a set of measuring spoons.

Kamenstein 6 Tin Strip Rack with Free Refills for 5 years; Cost $18.42 This wall mounted unit is ideal for situations where space is limited and the cook uses a small handful of spices for seasoning. The customer rating is 4.3 out of 5 stars. The lids are clear for easy recognition of the contents. For simpler spicing needs, this may fit the bill.

Zevro KCH-06100 Zero Gravity 12 Canister Spice Rack; Cost $24.49. This wall mounted unit has a sleek industrial appearance and has a distinctive look compared to the shallow see through lid designs we've discussed with the Kamenstein design. This wall mount has a slim magnetic shelf and 6 of the spice canisters magnet to sit on the top of the shelf, while the remaining canisters stick to the bottom of the shelf. Customer reviews give this unit a 3.2 out of 5 stars. If you seek out unique designs and "out of the box" products - this is likely one you will gravitate toward.
Yamazaki Magnetized Shelf Unit; Cost $24.10. From all outward appearances, this unit looks just as if it's a traditional spice shelf. It can hold the spice bottles you buy straight from the grocery store. No need to switch out spices to put in magnetized tins. This unit is not magnetic, but has a magnetic strip along the back - so the shelf itself sticks to steel and magnetic surfaces. Consumer reviews stand at 4.7 stars out of 5. For those wanting a more traditional look, this is a good choice.

Spice Containers Only - Magnet to Refrigerator or Other Surface

12 Spice Tins/113 Labels Featuring Sift or Pour Clear Lids - by Talented Kitchen. The Cost is $29.99. Consumer reviews are high at a 4.6 out of 5 stars. This unit is ideal if you don't need a mounting rack and can utilize the surface of your fridge. The sift or pour lids offer a major convenience.

Gneiss Spice DIY 24 Hexagon Jars; Cost $95.00. The cost may seem high, but before you pass this option by entirely, notice that you are getting 24 jars(twice the amount as in previous comparisons). Also notice that the jars are a high quality glass - not tin. And if that isn't enough, these individual hexagon shaped jars can be arranged to suite whatever your space constraints are as well as any design or shape you personally like. Also, this is another set that is eye-catching and will appeal to those who like the finer and unusual things. Customer reviews give this an amazing 4.5 out of 5 stars.

Bekith 16 Multi-purpose Tins with Clear Top and Sift or Pour Lids; Cost $18.99. The unit has the high end sift or pour tops but offers a 16 pack for about $10 less than the unit by talented kitchen(offering only 12 spice tins). This unit has no customer reviews at present. If you prefer the sift or pour lids, this option provides a great cost savings.
Mounting Plate Only - Jars must be purchased Separately

River's Edge 12 x 24" Wall Base; Cost $24.99. If one of the "jars only" options appeals to you but you'd rather not mount your spices on the fridge - consider buying a separate wall base. This unit can accommodate 28 spice tins. Customer reviews give this a 4.5 out of 5 stars. This wall base requires some space to mount, but is ideal for the person who needs to have a large variety of seasoning choices close at hand.

Gneiss Medium Wall Base 10 x 12" Plate; Cost $25.00. This wall base is medium sized, accommodating a maximum of 24 jars. It is ideally designed for the Gneiss Spice Jars, but other brands will work. Customer ranking is 4.3 out of 5 stars.
