You lose significant storage space using those. What you have is a little more organized, if you use it that way, but now you can only fit 2/3 of what you could before.

Can confirm this stuff does wonders for stainless steel that isn't looking so great anymore. For new stainless steel, it does not work well at all. I use it only for an expensive but old stainless trash can, which it gives an incredible makeover. It's somehow awful on the stainless appliances that show no wear, though.
