Abstract: The present invention relates to a stackable carrying rack comprising a support base provided with support legs extending downwardly from the base and vertical support means mounted on the base and provided for supporting and storing a plurality of items placed in the rack. The support base has a configuration allowing to freely dispense items of smaller dimensions stored inside the rack downwardly though a central opening formed in the base without any obstructions or restrictions. The support base has a generally square configuration formed by side support members, and the central opening has a diamond-shaped configuration formed by reinforcement members extending between each adjacent side support member; the diamond-shaped configuration facilitates free dispensing of items through the central opening. Each of the reinforcement members forms a hypotenuse of a right triangle with respect to the adjacent side support members.
