Mine arrived with one top having fallen off - glad it wasn't more than one, as I'm not a spice expert and may not have known which bottle the tops should've gone on. Would've spent a while using fennel instead of marjoram or something....
I will post some pics later today to show more detail on the unit, but it has recessed areas where the lids are placed, so they do stay in well. I spun mine at about 75 to 90 RPM and nothing fell off... Much faster than I'd ever spin it looking for something since you can't read the labels at that speed anyway.
Each one comes individually sealed under the tops like most things do nowadays, so even with the lid off in shipping, nothing spilled.
Rotates easily, and bottles come off and go back on very quickly and without any effort.
Only reason I gave it four stars rather than 5 is the tops... The "hinges" for each side is made by having the plastic thinner there, so they don't stay open well when you are getting things out (end up using a finger to hold it) and sometimes they don't close quite as tight as I'd like. And when the hinge is thin plastic like that, you know that as things get used, that plastic will break at some point.
But for the price, can't beat it. Attractive and functional.
 One Of A Kind, Sensible Spice Rack... April 12, 2010

I own this spice rack and have now for a little over a year. I have to tell you up front that I have always been fascinated by the price of spice racks. Its just seems to be one of those items that you occasionally run into in life that are consistently outrageously priced, and for no discernible reason as to why. This particular Olde Thompson model was actually very reasonably priced as racks go, and in my opinion it is the best, unique, and most functional one I have ever had. First up the rack base is a lazy susan design that spins. My old one faced in one direction which I thought would just about cover it all if I made that direction the front. But, it didn't. The spin on this model is very handy when you have several things going at once and are momentarily held prisoner in front of the stove and need a little more oregano for your signature sauce.. Also, this models standard 3 oz. circular jars are unique and attractive in my opinion. I have not seen another rack with such a round jar design. The jars are well made with stainless steel lids and glass. It is true that the base unit is made of plastic, but I find it not to be either of a cheap feel or flimsy in any way. Indeed, I think it supports the jars quite nicely. And as for any of the jars flying off, unless you plan on practicing your roulette talents with it, you shouldn't have a problem. For me personally, (who loves to cook mind you), this has been a very well thought out, quality spice rack set.
For those of you that like statistics, this rack is up to speed on being a space saver. It is just under 11" tall, and about 9" in diameter. It spins very easily and quietly and I have received many compliments on its unique design. And, it keeps the spices tightly sealed and fresh. The only thing I have found to be a downside to this rack is like all jars with labels, they will fade with handling over time. Not in a couple of months, and not to a point where the names disappear, but they will eventually make you squint. My solution to the problem was to order some replacement labels available here on Amazon, and at the link provided. I have used these particular labels before for other spice jars and they are the best ones available on Amazon in my opinion. Not only are they very clear and easy to replace, but you can also customize your spice collection in favor of what you like and use the most. I recommend buying a set of labels here on Amazon where they are very reasonably priced. And I highly recommend this very handsome and functional spice rack. In my opinion it's very good at what its supposed to do, and does it most handsomely... R.S.V.P. 96-Piece Spice Label Set

I love this spice rack it is beautiful and does not take up a whole lot of counter space. I love the glass jars and have yet to have a proplem with them falling off. Very sturdy base. For those of you that need extra jars for your personal favorite spices they can be found at Bed Bath and Beyond for about $1.78 each. Makes a great gift to for someone who loves to cook!!
