Perfect size
Color: Black Standard
Good quality track, looks very nice in my kitchen. I didn't use the suction cups because I have it sitting on my sink. I like that excess water can drain to avoid and build up of water or soap in the rack. Holds all of my cleaning tools well.

Hanger not secure
Color: Black Standard
Like the holder. The only issue I have is the hanger off the front is not locked in so falls off sometimes when I take the facecloth off the hanger.
