Title: useless
Review: I don't understand the great ratings on this. It won't keep the book open ... only works for a book that already lies flat. I have about two lie-flat cookbooks as opposed to the 40-plus other cookbooks I have that need a holder to keep them open.It does fold up. And it's stored in the box to go to the Salvation Army. I should have returned it but didn't. Am pretty disgusted and feel taken advantage of.I have one ancient cookbook holder that both holds the book open and doesn't tip over in the process and that's a clear acrylic one called Aspenglas that isn't made anymore ... at least, I can't find it anywhere.So, the hunt for a second useful cookbook holder goes on. The problem with the acrylic ones I've found is the tipping factor ... the base needs to be at least 5 inches deep, I think, or more.
