Kitchen Phone Holder: Measure Your Cabinet Edge First

A kitchen phone holder that hangs under a wall cabinet keeps your recipe up off the counter. Ours hooks over a cabinet edge, and our listing advertises it for “16–19 mm cabinet boards.” Measure the board edge first, check your phone in its case, and hang it away from direct stove heat and splashes.

We sell a kitchen phone holder, so read this as a shop’s notes on its own listing plus what cooks ask online.

What cooks say

Two home cooks on Reddit posted about reading recipes on a phone while cooking.

• One wrote: “I tend to use my phone, but the screen is small, and my hands are perpetually damp from washing and cleaning during food prep.”
• Another asked: “Who else thinks reading recipes on their phone or computer in the kitchen while cooking is a PAIN?!”

A holder on the cabinet edge puts the phone where you can read it without holding it.

What our listing says

Our listing for the White Under-Cabinet Hanging Phone Holder describes “a deep upper hook, a narrow slotted back and an upturned lower support lip.” It says the pictured product “uses an upper hook that hangs over a cabinet edge.”

The listing advertises “16–19 mm cabinet boards.” That figure is the cabinet-board thickness, not the overall holder dimension or a phone-size range.

The product image labels the holder as 3D printed and PLA. The phone is not included.

People search for this as “kitchen phone holder”, “phone holder for kitchen”, “phone stand for kitchen” or “under cabinet phone holder”. They all mean a way to keep a phone in view while you cook.

Measure and pick the spot

1. The board edge. Measure the thickness of the cabinet board where the hook will sit. Our listing advertises 16 to 19 mm boards.
2. Room for the hook. Check that the hook can go over the edge without hitting a door, hinge or trim.
3. Your phone and case. Our listing says to check “phone-with-case fit” before ordering.
4. Away from the stove. Our listing says to “keep the setup away from direct stove heat and splashes.”

Hang it up

Our listing gives the steps:

1. Seat the hook. Seat the upper hook securely on the cabinet edge.
2. Rest the phone. Place the phone in front of the slotted body with its lower edge on the support lip.
3. Check the buttons. Confirm that the case and buttons have clearance.
