This flat crossbar merchandiser featured spring-clip hook B/P (backplates) to anchor the rows of toothbrushes in position. One of the main advantages of flat crossbar merchandisers is the infinite adjustability of hook position along the bar. But loose fitting saddle mounts on applications like toothbrushes can be easily knocked out of position. Spring-fit backplates are a much better choice. Rotated metal plate label holders allowed closer spacing of these hooks. Finally a powdercoated finish was more environmentally friendly than chrome. Criticisms? The adhesive labels were larger than the metal plate holders, allowing the label stock to overhang and get ratty and unkempt. And the entire display was loosely spaced for a fixture whose purpose was to tighten up the product.
