Corner cabinet - trash or super susan
Comments (5)I'm with Holly - that does seem like a lot of trash and recycle. How big is your family? As for your other question - I love my Super Susan. I have mine in a diagonal corner, with a drawer above, so I have less height on the susans themselves. I measured my tallest small appliance, and had the cabinet maker space the shelves accordingly. If they were the same height, my rice cooker wouldn't fit. Mine contains the following: rice cooker, crock pot, mixer, waffle iron, George Foreman grill, colanders. I also have a 9" cabinet next to my sink, used for cookie sheets and cutting boards. I have a little drawer above mine, which isn't much use - I wish I had instead put a shelf inside, for things like long aluminum foil or rolling pins. What do you plan to put in the pull-out?...See Moreputting super susan next to range?
Comments (11)I too have a lazy susan in the corner right next to my slide-in range. A KD/cabinet guy also tried to tell me I couldn't have one there because there wouldn't be enough room. I didn't listen to him (or hire him) and I put one there anyway. It fits fine and I have plenty of room. My doors are not hinged in the middle though - there are two doors, hinged on either side (inset cabs) and open in the middle. You can see pics below. In my NJ kitchen, I also have the same setup, but different type cabs. The range sticks out and the door would've hit had I hinged it on the side near the range. Instead I hinged it on the side opposite the range, and it works fine. Go ahead and get your lazy susan!

Comments (69)Lisa - two KD people that I have spoken to said that the voided corner does not provide wider drawers on either side. What am I missing? Nothing as far as I can tell because what they are telling you makes no sense to me at all. If you don't give up 12" of linear space to a Susan, you gain 9" of drawer width (3" goes to spacer at corner). I considered adding a BCC to my sink corner (didn't have space on sink side to do corner Susan) but opted not to because a) it wasn't the right kind of storage for that corner and b) a drawer base was cheaper storage than a BCC. Here's my corner. Drawers & trash pull-outs open. If I had done a BCC, I would have lost the bank of drawers on the right. If I'd had room for a corner Susan, I would have lost 27" of much needed drawer storage. The few items that I would have been able to store in a BCC (ditto for a corner Susan) ended up in a a single drawer in a much roomier cab next to my wall oven. I use the items in the drawers in my prep zone much more regularly than the items I use in the drawer by my oven. A few extra steps now and then is a much better option than extra steps several times a day, IMO. Look at the whole picture when it comes to storage. What you decide for one area affects storage in another. It's a domino effect, IME....See Moreweissman
