Stick with the lazy/super susan. The blind corner units are really for people who cannot fit a susan. Susans are much easier to use and nothing can fall off of them. With a blind corner unit, if something falls off, you cannot close them until you crawl back into the corner and retrieve the item. My KD discourages them b/c she's had so many complaints from clients who got them. (If you insist, she'll order one since it's your kitchen, but it goes against her better judgment.) I don't know if super susan shelves are adjustable (the turntables sit on stationary shelves in the cabinet, but the top shelf may be adjustable). However, I wouldn't want to store my KA mixer (or any heavy appliance) below the counter if I had to lift it out, regardless of cabinet type (except, maybe a lift, but I'm not sure even then since you still have to lift it up to the counter since I don't think those lifts are really stable enough to use the mixer for any length of time or w/a lot of movement). Rather, I suggest you consider either storing it on the counter (if you don't like the way it "looks", get a nice cover...but remember, this is a kitchen, not a formal living room or similar) OR in a pantry on a shelf somewhere around waist or slightly higher height. Your Cuisinart can be stored in the susan if you separate the bowl.

This is one reason I really dislike lazy susans....especially the ones that revolve on a center pole. These have been the thorn in the side of KD's worldwide for many years. The hardware changes over the years and it's not an easy task to replace for the average homeowner. I tried to help one of my best friends replace hers. I was doing her a favor, ended up buy two replacements that wouldn't work for her 20 year old cabinets and I was out the $. My business partner eventually was able to fix it. I know she was frustrated but not even a thank you from her, she just complained that the kitchen business needs to have more service in fixing things when they break. Even though there might be some truth in that....what you need is a good carpenter or someone good with tools and a lot of patience. First off, try to find out who the maker of your cabinets are. If you can find out....call them or dealer who has them to get help. Here are a few online guides on how to replace. It also depends to: Is it a regular pole type lazy susan? A super susan? What is the diameter of the trays? Do your trays spin on a shelf? Or Are the trays secured to the revolving door? Or do the trays spin without the door? While I've never fixed one (I am NOT qualified to do that!), here are a few online instructions I found: Good luck. http://homeguides.sfgate.com/replace-lazy-susan-cabinet-29166.html this is kinda cool https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VNP0xa3OrZk This is cool if you have shelves in your corner cabinets http://www.retrolazysusy.com/ This is cool for an upper diagonal cabinet https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D8ejlXcGjPU Ps. Do you know where your cabinets came from? If you do, see if they will help you. With parts and labor, a fix could cost $130 to $400 depending on the parts and time involved. If you don't know, then contact a local kitchen dealership to see if they will help you. Some will, some won't. If they won't, then a cabinet installer is your next best bet. Maybe Lowes could give you a list. Don't be surprised if people want to blow you off. There's no money to be made in this and a huge PITA factor. Unless you do all the legwork and finding out what will work best with your cabinets.

We are getting a carpenter to build us Super Susans. I am sure you can find one too. We are making sure that he makes the circle as big as possible to avoid wasting space, and to avoid that black hole where things can fall off. By having your turntable on a fixed shelf, nothing can fall down below (could fall off the turntable if you spin too fast, but it's less likely). With the pole type LS, because the shelves often aren't perfectly level, ie because of weight issues they can tip, and things are more likely to fly off. Think about it, if you have a spice turntable (I have a rubbermaid plastic one that I think I paid 50 cents for at a garage sale), it lays flat on the shelf, and nothing flies off, and those are just small bottles. So, have a turntable on a solid shelf, make the circle as big as possible, and build up the sides a few inches, I think you can learn to like Susan.

You have to make the shelf unless you know the cabinet maker and can order one.. The pins may be sufficient to hold it...But why? There a many different types of adjustable Lazy susans that are of great quality and easier to install. You can get higher end wooden ones with better hardware.
