Good Question: Affordable Kitchen Rail System?

Could you please suggest affordable alternatives to the Rösle kitchen system? I just love their products, but they do not fit my budget. So far, I've found this item online and am looking for more suggestions.

Thanks for the help!

(To All Good Questions)

The Rösle kitchen system is a series of rails, hooks, magnets and well-designed utensils that lets you hang everything on the wall in a sleek-looking and efficient way. We love their products too; they're beautiful and substantial.

But there are other options. The one from Stacks and Stacks you mentioned looks great.

We are also big fans of the GRUNDTAL system from IKEA. It's well designed and very affordable.

Also, this nice-looking ClosetMaid organizer sells through Amazon for $39.99.

Any other ideas?

Next question?

I'm a big fan of the Ikea rail system...have used it in our apartment and am really impressed with how great it looks and holds up.

Go with Grundtal -- you can see it on over half the smallest coolest kitchen entries!

IKEA!

The others are nice but rarely make sense outside of a high-end home.

i used vintage towel bars and S hooks from the hardware store. It looks great and cost less than $30! (Sorry I don't have a picture)

I have given them as housewarming gifts and the best buys seem to be in hardware stores, good luck.

Olga-
Thank you so much for the Lee Valley link- it's exactly what I've been looking for. I wanted to devise a way to mount a corner rail with little luck- this will work wonders for my tiny counter-less kitchen!! Thanks again.

Another vote for Ikea. They have a new line besides Grundtal now too, but the possibilities with them are vast.
