Mary Jennings Meffe on Oct 18, 2015Not cheap, but years ago I added Rev-a-Shelf blind corner optimizer to a similar problem. It gave me many years of convenient storage and the new owners of the house love it too. The other product they offer is the half moon lazy susan. Don't live with wasted blind corner shelves. They can easily be made functional.Helpful Reply

Linda on Oct 18, 2015you can make a simple platform with a lip (kinda like a very short drawer) and put it on gliders or wheels. Put seasonal items on that platform and slide them to the back of the cabinet. When the season changes pull them out. It's not perfect, but it does use the space and you only have to access it 2x to get the job done.Helpful Reply

Chris on Oct 19, 2015I would find a tray (or cookie sheet) to fit and use it to slide things forward that are deep in the back. I've always maintained that people who design kitchens have never used one.Helpful Reply

Myra Bamberger on Oct 19, 2015if there is a room on the other side of the wall, I would open up the wall and put a cabinet door there. This way you would have access to the space from another room and use it for storage.Helpful Reply

Monica on Oct 19, 2015My Mom put a lazy susan in and stored her pots and pans on it. When we remodel our kitchen we are taking the corner cabinets out and putting in open shelves.Helpful Reply

Jayne gerow on Oct 19, 2015Change the doors so that they r hinged together. Then u will be able to crawl in it if need be. I had my husband do this for me. I put large appliances such as crockpots, food processor, bread maker, electric skillet, ,etc. in mine. I love it I can hide them all yet have them close.Helpful Reply

Jewellmartin on Oct 19, 2015I greatly recommend lazy susans on each shelf, as sturdy as you can afford. Lowe's, Walmart, Dollar General, Dollar Tree: they all usually carry these, and course, I'm sure you can find them online. I keep a ton of plastic containers on mine because pots and pans were too heavy for my susans. I wish I had more.Helpful Reply

Pat on Oct 20, 2015I am in the minority here....when first married I had cupboards that went way back in a corner and I kept my waffle iron, crock pot and things like that with the mixing bowls in front....put things in the back corner I didn't use very often. Now years later, I have built in lazy susans in the 2 corners of my cupboards and I do not like them at all....even with little ledges, things like plastic lids and containers and even cans fall off and naturally they are back in the corners so I am on the floor with a flashlight trying to reach the stuff. I think baskets or bins in your corner cupboards would work for you....Good luck. Thankfully I do not have lazy susans in the top cupboards.Helpful Reply

Pat on Oct 21, 2015My built in lazy Susan's, I do not like, have three shelves each....doesn't matter what shelf I put stuff on, stuff still falls off , even by spinning it very slowly, and the stuff lands on the side or in the back corner....even with a ledge on each shelf....I have canned goods on one shelf, plastic containers (the worst offenders) on the second shelf and the bottom shelf has taller bottles and some popcorn bowls. A pain!!Helpful Reply

Monica on Oct 23, 2015I should have been more clear. My Dad rebuilt my Mom's corner cabinets so they opened up wide and had a two tier lazy susan that took up the whole cabinet. Nothing could fall off, no where to go. She kept her pots and pans and small appliances there.Helpful Reply
