Split-Rack with Removable Insert

The split-rack with removable insert is a space maximizer. When the two are attached, they make a full rack. The insert can also be removed to provide room for large items such as a turkey and casseroles.

The insert can also be used on the counter for a cooling rack.

Do not place more than 25 lb (11.3 kg) on the split-rack.
