I do not know how much it costs around the world, but in Poland I consider it most overpriced thing you can have in kitchen! This has only sense if any of those 2 are happening: 1. kitchen is so small that this corner MUST be used for easy-access 2. you can afford this without problem At the end gain is maybe 50% of actual volume of this cabinet!

I've got one of these. I wouldnt say it's the last word in efficient storage (a lot of space is unused) but it really makes accessing my cooking pans so much easier.

[@livium2514]

It's supposed to be easy access and efficient use of the otherwise dead space... not maximizing with limited access. What's your alternative, is it comparable in access with more utilized space?

[@FirstLast-my6ke]

​@@livium2514the alternative is to use all the dead space - by getting on your hand and knees, pulling everything out that pulls straight out, then reaching around the corner and pulling out the stuff that's in front of the stuff in the very back, and then finally getting that lid for the one Tupperware that doesn't share lids with the 30pc set of Tupperware that you got at Costco but you had to use your phone camera to see around the corner because the last time you stuck your neck in without stretching and regretted it. Then you put everything back in and toss that one Tupperware.

[@jeffh8803]

You get the best of both worlds where most of that cabinet is unused, but then something will fall off the shelf right at the back and you have to twist around the shelves to climb in and find it.

[@REALfish1552]

I would argue it is MORE effieint use of the space. I have a space like this without one of these shelves. It ends up a jumbled mess of containers, which causes me crawling halfway inside to search for containers for longer than I should need. Having one of these would allow me to pull it out and find the item almost immediately. So aside from filling the space with clutter than you never see, I don't see this as losing space or efficiency.

[@gambithewigbandit]

Oh, yes! I created one of these 7 years ago when I moved into our 1955 house that we purchased from the original owner. It was owned by the trust left to the surviving children and they threw in the original (aftermarket) GE Liberator Electric Range Double Oven, so I moved it to the adjacent 90° wall which created a blind corner but my similar creation added storage and convenience to the kitchen. Thanks for sharing.

[@PennsPens]

As a bespoke kitchen manufacturer these mechanisms absolutely crap. In reality these are all looks zero quality therefore quality cause issues in the swing accessibility and the storage is absolutely appalling. If you want quality hardware with more functionality request Blum. Blum is the only renowned hardware / mechanism company in the world. Other brands are just cheap rubbish knockoffs.

[@micheledimond]

I have a similar setup. I love it for my mixing bowls, plastic containers, beater, etc. Before I put those in, I couldn't really use that space and had to get a flashlight out to find things that got pushed back in the deep corner. Highly recommend this type of thing. This is nice b/c it pulls out. Mine is a double turning racks.

Yup I'm considering some for under my sink, it's the opposite of the vid cabinet and yes I use a torch too, thankfully the system at the moment is Bulk(accessible by scoop) and products of less use go to the back, lmao, still feel like I'm climbing in tho🤣🤣🤣

Gute arbeit echtholz küche hab ich auch einmal gebaut, das war meine allererste Einbauküche nach Maß, der Nachmieter hat sie bei meinem umzug mir abgekauft.als ich meine neue wohnung die noch im bau war besichtigte nahm ich messwerkzeug mit um mir mein Aufmaß zu erstellen, so fertigte ich mir in meinem keller schon mal meine zweite Einbauküche aus voll Holz. Als sie fertig war hab ich sie lackiert innen weiß und außen in verschiedenen Pastellfarben wie man es in deen 50ern hatte die beschläge hatte ich von einem laden der uralte beschläge hatte.die arbeitsplatte wurde für spühlbecken kochfeld und für versenkbare geräte ausgeschnitten.da ich die küchengeräte vom flohmärkten hatte wurden diese von mir komplett zerlegt,gereinigt und restauriert. Da kamen alle kaber raus und wurden gegeen neue ersetzt und die gehäuse hab ich neu lackiert und alles edelstahl und Aluminium wurde poliert. Auch meine neuen vintage geräte bekamen eine lackierung die der damaligen zeit entsprachen. Als ich wieder umzog verkaufte ich auch diese küche an den vermieter, da gehörte ein tresen im 50er style und vier barhocker 50er style und der boden war pvc schwarz weiß Schachbrett muster.der hat nach meinem umzug diese wohnung selbst bezogen und die andere wohnung gab er seiner Tochter.solche möbel sind wenn sie jemand gebaut hat der es auch kannte Handwerklich viel mehr wert als eine Nobilia küche die aus preßholzplatten gefertigt sind.ich spiele wieder mit dem gedankenmir eine zu bauen.
