 Wine Rack or Book Case, The Wine Box Stand Carries Its Weight December 20, 2008
Brockeim (Where the Wind Blows)
Black steel. What else can support a man's life? This Pinzon 3-liter Wine Box Stand carries a youth through his generation until he, at last, sets down all he has read the final time. As iron sharpens iron, this wine rack highlights what is important, what will further sharpen a man's perspective and skills in navigating the breathing world. These books give him definition along the way, a frame and mirror of where he has been and where he is going.
Four legs, with feet reminiscent of the ones Little Lord Fauntleroy wore, raise the device a half foot. Equally delicate and discrete are the four buttresses on each side, allowing books to stand ready to read.
Built to display boxed wine, a drink few are proud to flaunt, yet on everyman's desk, on my desk, it hosts five books to guide a man from youth to eternity.
Five Books
1 - A collection of nursery rhymes and tales to give a young boy wonder. I recommend the classic Richard Scarry's Best Mother Goose Ever (Giant Little Golden Book), or Edward Lear's The Complete Nonsense Book.
2 - Robert Louis Stevenson Seven Novels Complete and Unabridged (Robert Louis Stevenson Complete and Unabridged), so that the boy will taste adventure. If Stevenson is unavailable, Daniel Defoe's Robinson Crusoe (Modern Library Classics), is an excellent start.
3 - A book of etiquette, to give him sophisticated grace and courtesy. Only one book will do, Emily Post's Etiquette.
4 - A blank diary (try: Monet in Normandy Blank Journal), to record his life as adult, his adventures and dreams of adventure. While a simple spiral bound, college ruled notebook satisfies this need, something perfect bound, on acid free paper will look better and last longer for the sake of posterity.
5 - A Bible (try: Zondervan NIV Study Bible, Personal Size), to prepare him to meet God. This is my choice, but recognize others may prefer the Koran. The unbelieving man can choose Poor Richard's Almanac.
Whether a book stand or wine rack, this Pinzon wine box rack adds class to any home.

Decorative and useful. December 5, 2008
K. Robertson (southern Virginia)
I bought this stand anticipating that I would get some boxed wine in the near future. Until that time, I have actually been using it for another well-suited purpose -- a plant stand! It is the perfect width and height to accomodate a nice-sized houseplant, and with the plant sitting up a few inches off the table, leaves/vines nicely drape down. The stand is not actually wrought iron like another writer stated (does have that appearance), but is a black metal stand with a powder finish, similar to decorative candle holders and shelves that I've seen. It is definitely sturdy enough to hold a box of wine at a good height, and to raise the spout somewhat off the table to make dispensing easier. The design is simple and understated and right now I just love it on my table with an English Ivy in it.
Cute, but won't fit the boxes I'm used to seeing December 3, 2008

This is very cute, and feels very sturdy. There is even an open spot on one side for the spout to go. Pay attention to the dimensions though, this is 5 1/2 inches square. Any time I've seen wine in a box, it's not this dimension - it's large and flat, not cube, so the base would be more of a rectangle. As long as your wine box fits, this is a nice stand to use - you wouldn't need to have the box sitting right on the edge of the counter/table to use the spout. It would probably also make a nice plant stand for a small pot. Overall I think this is a very nice product.
GOOD QUALITY November 27, 2008

I had been looking for 1 of this kind and was lucky to find it on AMZN. The quality is superb. Very well built and looks nice. I will buy few of these for gifts.
 A nice stand for smaller boxes November 26, 2008
Adam Wood (Tucson, AZ USA)
This is a nice looking stand, IMO. I'll have to go looking for boxes that will fit into it. The boxes that I'm use to are rectangular and not square. So, just pay attention to the dimensions before you buy and make sure it will fit the boxes that you use.
The quality of the stand is average. The weld marks are obvious, but that's not much of an issue for me. The paint job is where I have issues. The stand is painted black, and part of it chipped off when I simply ran my finger over it. I can touch it up, so no big deal - but it is something that I wanted to mention to potential buyers. My stand sits perfectly level, so it should function very well once I find a box to fit it (I'll update this review if it doesn't).
