AMAGABELI GARDEN & HOME 4ft Firewood Rack Outdoor Heavy Duty Fire Wood Racks Outdoor for Firewood Log Holder Wrought Iron Firewood Log Racks Stand Wood Pile Lumber Storage Stacking Black

Sturdy. Simple. Easily assembled. Holds plenty.

Previous winter's wood piles have been unsightly at best. Why it took 6 decades for me to muster the desire to get a little more organized and prepared...I cannot explain. Ahhh...your first thought was laziness! But your first thought would be incorrect. There is nothing lazy about dealing with firewood for the winter season. This product is about creating a more organized and efficient storage for your stove's fuel.I have an inside dry storage area for the bulk of my firewood but it is some 20-30 yards from the house and that trek is a little more daunting when there is deep snow between me and my beloved old Buck Stove 27000 insert. Truckin' my 2 wheeled cart loaded down with 16" cherry and hickory chunks during those heavy snow times is not my favorite thing to do and the wife frowns on a measly few sticks remaining on the back patio when the weatherman is calling for some accumulation. But, as wives tend to be, she also doesn't like the unsightly random "pile" of wood close to the house even if it is out back. Enter the Landmann Firewood Log Rack.Easily assembled, this log rack storage solution has made me look like someone who actually knows a thing or 2 about being prepared. At least to my wife. The kids visiting the other day asked if I was a "prepper" now? I informed them that if being prepared was being a prepper...then, Yes, I was to be addressed as Dr Prepper. "But Daaad...you have so much wood stacked out there !" I will be certain to remind them of their observations when the juice goes out in the middle of a big snow storm later this season and they all come back home piling up in my den with cozies and fleece to watch movies and wait out the storm. And I'll be sure to be drinking a tall glass of Dr Prepper while reclining next to the warm fire when I recall the words.This rack holds a lot of wood and I'm glad now that I went with the 8 footer rather than the 4. Serves me well. After addressing the easy assembly, there is not a lot left to be said other than it's sturdy and once hardware is tightened, the rack does not move. Loading the wood properly aids in it's sturdiness. A previous reviewer mentioned a helpful fact concerning the length of the sticks you place on the rack. If your firewood is cut short, as mine is for the Buck insert, you will want to check the width of the bottom rack to make sure your cut wood will not fall through the span. I just placed some longer pieces for the bottom row and it was fine. But, as the other reviewer noted, placing a run of plywood or suitable base on the bottom prior to loading short wood will take care of that little problem.The cover as of this date has not been updated apparently. It is very cheaply done and I don't expect it can last very long. I opted to get the cover with the rack in spite of the reviews for the cover. My mistake. I could have applied that extra $10 or so to another, better made cover and I'd been happier but I am reviewing the log rack today and it is very well done. Cover looks nice enough...it's just the plastic tie straps (3 pairs on the front side front top to bottom) are attached in a manner that will almost certainly pull loose during your first install. Take care in this area if you opt for the cover. Blistering winds that surely will come will make this cover useless in short time.This thing is well-made, sturdy as it can be, and extremely practical. I’m buying another one of these for a family member. I like it that much. You won’t be disappointed.

Reasonably sturdy for the price it's a good value

Is everything that I expected…. I love Amazon.

So far, so good. This is fully loaded. It’s holding well at this time. Not sure if it handles weather and weight.

As with so many Chinese products found online these days, this item was designed to be inexpensive to produce and light weight / compact for shipping purposes. Not only were those factors the primary considerations in the product design, they were the only considerations in the design process. "Sturdiness" and "quality" did not have a seat at the table. When I received the package and saw how small and light the box was, I knew I was in trouble. I bought two, put the first one together and didn't even open the box for the second one. I went ahead and sent it back after seeing how crappy the first one I assembled was. I kept the one I had assembled in hopes that it would work long enough to keep the wood off the ground until I have time to split it. The next weekend, I put it to use with a recently downed pecan tree. I didn't even finish loading it before the right side had bowed out as shown in the first picture. The next morning, it has completely failed, folded like a wet paper towel, and spilled the wood (second pic). As you can in the 3rd and 4th pictures, the square metal tubes are way too thin to support any weight. Also, the paint flakes right off and they start rusting immediately. Doesn't really matter that it'll rusts away in two months, since it's going to collapse in less than 24 hours. Lesson learned. For less than $50 I bought a few cinder blocks, some landscaping timbers and in 30 minutes I built an eight foot rack that are more than capable of supporting this load (last pic). Should have just done that first.

Loved how easy this was to put together. Very lightweight on its own but very sturdy once you add any weight to it. Holds many many fires worth of wood.

It's a bit rusty on the inside, but didn't collapse when loaded up. I have mine under an overhang and a tarp so it should stay dry. I wouldn't trust it not to rust out completely if it were fully exposed to the elements
