Purchased this item on May 14, 2015.
So very happy with this purchase!
I read nearly ALL reviews before purchasing, and am very happy I did not let the negative comments sway me away. Upon re-reading reviews AGAIN, I've noticed that the majority of negative / neutral reviews (3 stars or LESS) were "older review" dates. If you review by "most recent" you'll see satisfaction is GREATLY improved in more recent year/s. Obviously, the design has been greatly improved / modified in more recent year(s) vs. reviews as far back as 2006 to 2012 (+/-) which had the majority of the complaints.
Please note that the dimensions posted (12" x 12") is NOT correct - image clearly shows rectangle shape, not square. Mine measures 11" x 6" - was a pleasant surprise for us as it fits inside our "battery drawer" with room to spare to keep our three rechargeable battery chargers. Tho, hanging on the wall would work nicely for us, too. NOTE: I would not hang it onto a cabinet door, as a loaded battery organizer is quite heavy & could cause damage to the hinges.
Battery Organizer is designed to hold the batteries at a "tilt" (slightly aiming upwards) and when hung at the 90-degree angle (flat against wall) this allows for secure retention of all batteries. I'm not good with "angles" but I'd estimate that when I held the rack tilted forward to approx. 75-degree angle, that's when the 9-volt batteries would slide out - others still remained. So I feel confident about hanging this organizer on the wall, but still would not hang on a door (or cabinet door). To do so would risk the possibility of batteries falling out with the motion of opening / closing the door. Would be horrible to have a battery fall unnoticed onto floor & have someone slip on it - especially if near stairs. Best to be "safe, not sorry", right?!
Battery Organizer comes with three screws & three anchors, and you'll find the organizer is designed with three screw holes: top of rack (tester = top) has two holes found inside the top AAA row (far left & far right spots), the third hole is found within the bottom AAA spot, located between D & C battery areas.
Battery Tester is a handy little feature - mine works well for my desired purpose: to check if battery is usable. Sometimes we have 'slightly used' batteries mixed with the new; sometimes 'dead' get added in there too; and for rechargeable battery testing too. Sometimes a battery is still usable but doesn't have enough charge left for a "big draw item" (small clock vs. large mechanical item) - tester allows me to see if there's still some charge left to be used. Also, I've found rechargeable batteries to be a huge nuisance... until now! Are they charged? Did they take or hold a charge? Is it the battery or the item that is faulty? With this handy little tester, which is readily found & easily used (removable, too!), it removed all the guess work! For example, found I had one rechargeable AAA that wasn't taking a charge. HOWEVER, if you're looking for a professional / commercial grade tester - this likely won't fit your needs. It met & exceeded my needs & expectation.
Organization; Safety; Convenience; Great Price (under $15); Practical; Useful - what more could you ask from such an item?
Adding this to my GREAT gift-able item list...
great for Father's Day; House-warming / New Home Gift; Wedding Gift... really, just about ANY occasion and for ANYone! Loved the suggestion another reviewer gave: "filling with batteries" as part of the gift-giving. Tho, my budget likely swing only "partial fill". ;)
UPDATE: October 31, 2016 - only one new complaint - this handy organizational item is making it much to convenient for EVERYONE in our household (and some of our visiting family members, too) to locate and take our batteries! LOL
Has been utilized for just over 17 months and it's still working great. Only tiny issue, one of those "visiting family members" didn't realize how the tester was to "slide up & off" the top of the organizer, and used too much force (man-handled!) pulling it off. Nothing broke, but they did separate the tester into two parts. Simple fix, just glued it back together - still works just fine. Guess it's time to find a new "hiding place" for my battery organizer!
Wow! You read my complete review? :D

Absolute game changer in battery organization #halloween23

Keeps batteries organized and healthy; tester is good but I can't get it to work with the 9V
I ordered this because I was so tired of my batteries discharging in a plastic bag. Although this can be hung, I prefer to lay this flat and store it in a large 2.5 gallon zip-lock bag. It probably would have fit in a 1 gallon size.There is room for- 4 D- 5 C- 5 9V- 54 AA- 36 AAA- 5 large flat button cell batteriesThere is a tester on the end and the battery has to be angled on the diagonal. I tested my batteries and it works well. The only problem was that I was unable to test the 9V batteries. I do not know how to position those batteries in the tester. Other than this the tester worked fine once I figured out the angle.I love how this keeps my batteries organized. When loaded this is heavy, so hanging it on a wall requires putting it into the studs or using molly bolts. There are three mounting screws provided with plastic wall anchors but I know they will not hold on my wall because I have used those type screws and anchors before with ill effect. Once hung, one must be careful not to bump into this.

Well, here's a product that's just as advertised, no surprises. Unlike some other reviewers, I had no problems getting rechargeable AA batteries to slide into the slots, they fit just like the regular AA. This mounted easily and tightly to the wall with 3-point screw locations. A nice feature is the slots are just slightly slanted so the batteries fall back and won't accidentally slide out. The battery tester works fine although it's kind of a pass/fail sort of meter; you may have a better tester at your house already.
The provided screw anchors, as noted in other reviews, are cheap and worthless, if you are handy enough to wall mount this your probably have decent screw anchors already at hand. No biggie. There is also a rotating "bin" in the upper right hand corner intended to hold button batteries. It is so small that the batteries would have to be removed from their packaging and dropped in like coins. It might then be easy for the batteries to rub together and discharge (overheat?). This little bin appears to be a useless afterthought but I won't deduct a star over it.
Conclusion: Sturdy, easily mounted, does just what I expected and hoped for.
