KastKing V16 Fishing Rod Rack With Rotating Base- Fishing Pole Rack Holds Up to 16 Fishing Rods or Combos, Lightweight and Durable ABS Construction, Space-Saving Fishing Rod Holders for Garage

Pros: Unit assembles quickly and appears to be made of sturdy materials. All parts were present and fit and finish is good.Cons: Unit does not sit completely vertical tending to list to one side (see photo). Note that rods are not plumb with window frame. This after redistributing the weight, re-tightening threaded joints, moving rods from one side to the other, and even rotating rack but it always leans the same direction.A second area for improvement: the rubber inserts on the unit meant to retain the rod do not grip the rod properly and several rods fall out when attempting to remove or insert another.This unit was a gift, however, I could not recommend this product to a friend.

Flimsy crap, doesn't stand up straight and the rods will not stay on it.I only have 10 rods on it, but the rack keeps listing to one side and the foam that is supposed to hold the rods in place keeps bending and letting them fall on the floor.Don't waste your money, buy something sturdier.

The KastKing V16 Fishing Rod Rack with Rotating Base is easily one of the best gear organizers I’ve ever bought. It’s compact, lightweight, and saves a ton of space in my apartment. I used to have rods leaning against the wall and taking up too much room — now everything looks clean, organized, and professional.

Has held all my rods in my living room for years now. Lightweight, easy to assemble, holds all my rods from catfish/surf, bass, panfish. Very sturdy. Bought my brother one I was so happy with mine. Elite Product!

Given the price, I wasn't expecting much from this rod rack, but I was pleasantly surprised. The rack assembled easily, (less than 10 minutes), held several light- to medium-weight rod/reel combos securely, and thus far seems stable despite the weight of the equipment. I have owned several rod racks over the years, and although all were considerably more expensive than the KastKing V16, from a functionality standpoint, there is virtually no difference. (If anything, the KastKing V16 is superior to the other rod racks I have owned because it has a smaller footprint.) Overall, a good product at a great price that should provide years of service.Pros:Excellent price pointHolds several rod/reel combosFunctional design, (the top tray for other equipment is nice, though the fishing line spool holder seems unnecessary)Well built/sturdy, particularly given its plastic compositionSmall footprintAssembles easily (see "cons" for additional information)Cons:Threaded nut that secures the base to the bottom tray did not go on or tighten easilyFoam inserts seem looser than comparable foam retention "clips" on other vertical rod holdersSuggestion:Great design overall, but adding a ball-bearing ring on the underside of the bottom tray would enable the product to be easily rotated in place. For some people, the inability to turn the rod holder is not an issue. But given the space-saving design, particularly for users storing multiple rod/reel combos, it makes sense to have such a feature.

The first thing i tried with this rod holder was balance. I figured most people are going to set this in a corner or up against a wall, so i loaded six rods all on the same side to see if it was still stable. I could see my self grabbing a rod with one hand and pulling the whole thing over but was pleased to see that the foam rod holders were just snug enough to keep the rods upright and need very little effort to remove. I was able to remove a rod one handed without holding on to the entire stand to keep it from tipping over. The entire rack is attractive and built well. The staggered base plates are a good design so the reels are not in contact with each other. Just remember if you have a ceiling height of 8' you wont be able to store a 7' 5" or longer rod on the top plate. There are six that are floor level and six that are about 7" above. If there is one thing I would like to see added would be a carousel so you could spin it around to select the rod you want if its in the back corner or against the wall but its not heavy so not that big a deal. Overall this is a really good product.

Easy to assemble and holds all different kinds of rods very nicely!! Love the 2 tier level bottom holder, keeps reels from hitting each other.

The rod rack is pretty solid for the money. It has enough space to hold rod all kinds of rods except one surf rod that is too thick for the clamp. Installation was easy and has very little room to go wrong.However, the rotation base does not work very well. Although it does work, the rotation is not very smooth. And because the rods are held together tightly, it feels a bit flimsy when rotating when heavily loaded. The bottom of the base does not sit flat on the floor and it wiggles a little, which make it even more unstable especially if you have a heavier rod on one side.Overall it is a good looking product that works as described. The flaws are not too bad for the price you pay.
