Modern Innovations 16 Inch Magnetic Knife Holder for Refrigerator, Magnetic Knife Holders for Fridge or Kitchen Wall No Drilling, Magnet Strips for Knives & Metal Utensils, Tool Rack, Stainless Steel

I love this knife holder. Nothing fancy, it’s made solid and is exactly what I wanted. The magnet is strong and holds knives and utensils securely. I would definitely buy it again. In fact I might buy another one to use in the garage.

Love it. Very powerful magnet and holds knives securely.

This is just as described- strong magnet adheres to refrigerator, with optional mounting piece for a wall. The knives adhere well to it. I am verynhappynwith product and would highly recommend to others. The perfect, space-saving solution

This magnet is VERY strong. I put mine on side of refrigerator. Looks great and holds most my big knives securely. Cleared up a lot of draw space too.

Needed a small magnetic knife holder because of space available on the side of the refrigerator so I bought the 10in. I also wanted other mounting options in case I wanted to move it. It came with 3M strip that was the length of holder as well as screws. Installation was easy although the screw mount metal cover-plate gave me a bit of a wrestling match to get it off but I took that as a good sign the magnet was heavy duty. The magnet back was very strong and once on the refrigerator, it was not easy to move. I will agree with other reviews the back edge is sharp so do not drag it across the surface to reposition as I am sure it will scratch. I recommend lifting it off to reposition - again a bit of a tug of war to get it off. I am not a lightweight but you are trying to lift with just your finger tips 😁. The front magnet is also very strong and fits 5 knives including my large chef knife, probably could get a sixth on it but I like the spacing to get to the handles . The knives didn’t move when touched so no wobble, swinging or sliding when you pushed with a finger. I love the clean line look of the holder and the knives are now out of reach of little hands and no accidental nicks to the fingers when they were in the drawer. I did a little comparison shopping and bought another brand (few $$ cheaper) that promoted very similar features however Modern Innovations outperformed so the other was returned.

I purchased this particular knife holder because of pretty good ratings, and I wanted a holder that could be mounted it directly onto the side of the fridge. I followed the printed instructions to remove the plastic backing and I am glad I did, because the metal backing indeed snaps very firmly into place and yes, I can see how you can pinch your fingers pretty badly. Didn't happen to me, thankfully; however, the holder did not stick to the fridge! Stumbled, I reread the instructions to see if I missed anything about putting the metal backing on one way or another, but no, nothing about that. I decided to experiment before sending the holder back. First, I carefully pried off the metal backing using the box cutter knife, and once I got enough space between the backing and the magnets, I inserted a butter knife in between (while the box cutter blade was still prying the two pieces apart) and used the butter knife as a lever to separate the backing from the magnet, and I just let the backing fall onto the kitchen counter. Then, I flipped the backing over and carefully re-positioned the backing onto the magnets to place the holder on the fridge. Flipping the metal backing over did not work, though. Disappointed, I then went on to see if the holder would stick to the fridge using the "front" side of it, and man, did it stick! I was not very happy that the "back" side would be facing out, including the 2 mounting holes in the backing for the wall hardware, but said, OK, whatever, the holes will be covered with the knives anyway. Unfortunately, the knives would not stick to the backing. Some smaller knives did, but they were not being firmly held in place and I could see knives falling off of the holder at the most unfortunate moments. I was about ready to pack the whole dang thing back and send it to Amazon, but I said, what the heck, let's try the holder without the backing. Repeated the whole box cutter and the butter knife operation (it felt like an operation, because I had to be very precise and careful while separating the two pieces!) to separate the backing from the magnet yet again, and without much hope, I brought the holder up to the side of the fridge, with the uncovered back facing the fridge. And the holder was almost ripped out of my hands; it stuck to the side of my fridge with that much force! Wow! The final test was to place the knives on the holder. I have a red Fiesta set of knives with not the lightest handles, and all of the knives stuck very firmly to the holder. If I REALLY want to, I could fit in a few more knives (much cheaper ones, with lightweight black plastic handles, facing upwards), but that would make the holder quite crowded, so I don't think I'll go that route. I wish for a longer holder in general, but this one is just long enough to fit on the side of my fridge and the cabinets don't get in the way (can't pull the fridge out more due to the laundry area door right on the other side of the fridge, and pulling the fridge out more would prevent the laundry area doors from opening). I suppose a longer holder could fit if I placed it lower than the bottom edge of the kitchen cabinets, so that's something to keep in mind, but I like this holder where it is. Glad I experimented with the backing before sending the whole thing back! After this experience, I reread some of the reviews, and a few reviews say the same thing about removing the backing altogether, so try that before giving up! Overall, after I was able to mount the holder on the side of my fridge, I am very happy with the holder and would recommend it to others. However, the instructions (or lack thereof) could have been more specific to include a blurb about installing the holder without the backing on your fridge, in case the backing does not stick. Knocking one star down for the instructions, but the product works fine once mounted.

Very strong magnet on both sides. At first glance, it looks like it has to be wall.Mounted with screws. Pull the back plate off to mount magnetically. It is nice looking, too.

I wish everything was this easy. This solved a knife storage issue for me and it was so simple. Well made, strong magnets with no weak spots. Do be careful when removing the plastic film between the metal pieces as the magnets are strong. I just wore an oven mitt so that I wouldn't get accidentally pinched. Very pleased with this purchase!

A previously returned, damaged item was sent. The plastic tab described in the instructions was not present. Only one side was sufficiently magnetic. When attached to the fridge, the magnet on the other side was not strong enough to hold knives. Returned.

Terrific product. It was super easy to install as it's magnetic and the magnet seems to be very strong. This gets my good knives out of a crowded drawer, so I'm very please with it.

Love it, works really well

Starkes Magnet, gute Leistung.
