Reviews

The other reviewer is correct that it is easy to install. It comes with two screws, two pieces of plastic, and the rack itself. At first, I thought the instructions were missing. I looked at the picture to make sure the red tab points downward. The directions are on the side of the box. It comes with two long screws. I actually used my own anchor and screws, since this doesn't come with anchors. I, too, was skeptical about how much weight it could hold. It was good enough for our 17 pound Bugaboo stroller.
There is no indication on the box about the maximum weight it can hold. I wouldn't test it to its limit. The rack does wiggle a bit when attached to the plastic part. I wish it attached on more securely. The rack itself is pretty well-made. It's the plastic that it snaps onto which I worry about giving if too much weight/stress is put on it. Once again, it would be nice if they did some quality control test and found out. I'm happy with it because now our stroller is hung up and out of the way in our little NYC apartment!

This product is a lawsuit waiting to happen - Jason M. Page -
I ordered this product as I needed a simple multi-use rack for storing something in my garage. At the time I placed my order I did not notice that it used the interchange dock system. The interchange dock system is a flimsy piece of plastic that mounts to a stud. There is another (even flimsier) piece of plastic that has a tab, a plastic "spring" and a red button that can be slid down to release the tab and allow the rack to separate from the dock.

This is an accident (and possibly lawsuit) waiting to happen. The red plastic button requires very little force to pull down and I could easily see this being something a child would want to do, resulting in a large and heavy object (plus the rack) coming off the wall and injuring them or someone else.

The other issue I have is that the latching mechanism itself looks very cheap and frail. I would be concerned that after repeated stress the low quality plastic could eventually fail, resulting in someone being injured, a vehicle being damaged by a falling object, etc. It doesn't help that there is a lot of play between the dock and the rack when properly installed. This play could lead to a stress fracture over time resulting in this product failing.

If Racor really cared they would offer a way to "lock out" the tab so it could not be accidentally released, as well as making the materials out of something sturdier like steel. That might add a dollar or two to the price but would make it less likely that someone would be hurt by this cheaply produced (in China of course) piece of equipment.

Great for utility storage - Shanker Balasubramanian - Bridgewater, NJ
I needed an item to hang my ladder on the garage wall. And this was perfect for it. Like one of reviewers pointed out - I was little skeptical about the multipurpose plastic wall dock arrangement, which supposedly hold a variety of such racks or hooks. But it turned out fine - I have been using for close to 3 months now, without any problems. It is very easy to set up. The product comes with 2 2" screws, 2 pieces of plastic dock and the rack. The bottom piece of the plastic dock is screwed to the wall. The top piece snaps onto the bottom plate and the Rack sits on this dock arrangement. There is only one thing to keep in mind. If you are planning on screwing the dock to a wall stud, make sure you drill a hole on the wall stud first. I did not do it for the first screw and my power tool ended up damaging it when it was half way in (The hardware was not that great). Good that I had a homedepot close by. Other than that - It was an easy setup and overall the product is of great utility.
