I scoured Tik Tok for corner cabinet ideas. Maybe there's an option here for you.
Corners are one of the most challenging aspects of a kitchen layout. There are many options out there for you to choose. But are they worth it?

Before you comment on how much of the screen I take up in this video, please know that I'm reacting to TikTok vertical videos. If I make them any larger they become pixilated and hard to see. It's not because I want you to look at me. In the future I will try and use horizontal videos to react to. Thanks!

When we moved my old range out to replace it I was astonished by the space wasted by the corner cabinet next to it. I’m going to have my carpenter cut into the blank wall behind it in the utility room and put in some shelves (accessible from the utility room side). I know that’s not a kitchen solution but my utility room doesn’t have a lot of storage space. 😊

I did something similar with 2 rooms that shared a common wall. I took what would have been a wasted corner of a bookshelf and changed the wall so that this wasted bookshelf space became a storage cabinet for the powder room which was on the other side of the wall to the study.

I know this isn't the popular opinion, but I like my lazy Susan corners. Mine are relatively large and I only store big stuff that can't get shoved off the back in there. Pots and pans, pie plates, etc. My kitchen is a small to small-medium sized at best. My counters go around the corners and the lazy susans give me plenty of extra storage space that is easy (for me) to get to. I need the storage.

i hate lazy suzy it's such a pointless waste of space and things are cliched and it feels like everything is falling apart. We don't have a lot of space in apartments and often in private houses, which is why everything should be economical and well planned and thought out. Such a system can be used by someone who has enough space to leave such a large part of their kitchen for just a few items. Apparently, its lovers are the owners of a large kitchen or pantry. I'll add that I don't like a completely open kitchen either. It can be in the same room, but must remain in the shadows, behind the corner. for example, an L-shaped room. The thing is, I don't want to see any kitchen stuff from the living room. Dining table - yes, it can be in the living room. It's even nice and cozy. Long story short, in my last home I finally got those wishes and also the long missed open pot rack. For this, it was necessary to leave only 30 cm of free space between the doorway and the wall, where a shelf with stylish pots could be placed. It is so good to grab a pot of the required size with a lid from a step away. No more stacking and scrambling to get them and look for a cover. Of course, the kitchen, which is not part of the living room, allows this. I am so satisfied and happy. That , loving and hating depends on many circumstances in your home, such as style, wishes and possibilities.

My favourite solution for corner cabinets is: just leave there big stuff that you dont use often. The fondu, the big pot that you only use on big family meetings, the paella, the ice-cream machine or the 8 litre oil container. As they are big are easy to locate and pull over, and the esporadic use make it convenient and cheap

@nit11 6 месяцев назад
@@charvankerck9617 don't worry, I don't use them everyday, but I don't own stuff that I don't use nether. We have big family meetings every month, we use the fondue in friends meeting every season and the ice cream machine every week in summer time. Im Spanish, so the paella also see the light quite often. I won't consider any of it often, but it definitely has it's use. I agree anyway that is better getting ride of what you don't use enough. I had a waffle machine (was a present) or a yogurt maker (used to use, but now I have an electric oven) that I have given to other interested people. If you have the money and the space to keep something, and really want to try... Try it. If at the end you don't use it, just sell it or give it to someone else. And don't think that everyone has a similar lifestyle! As a Spanish citizen, we go out to nice restaurants with kids and babys, we dry the clothes outside with the sun and we love sitting on a table for hours after we finish eating. My USA friend used to work as babysitter, use a drying machine and doesn't understand why the waiter is not checking her if she had finished her food one hour ago. Maybe in my background, culture and personality, I use more often a paella than a toaster (I don't have one), but that doesn't make any of us better, just different.

In my old house, I had a corner cabinet, 36" with a SuperSusan (no pole in the middle) and a good lip on the sides. I LOVED it. Few things ever fell off. I loved baking in that corner as I had lots of room for the mixer, the ingredients etc. Many of the ingredients I kept in the Super Sue. Now I have a corner pantry. I wish to god when we renovated that I had yanked it out, put a flat pantry in elsewhere and had the same kind of corner configuration I had with the large super susan. I sometimes question those who hate this set up if they actually cook. But to be fair, if it works for you - great. If it does not and you prefer some other set up, so be it. It's your Kitchen.

For over 35 years, and three kitchens, the lazy susan has always been where I keep all my baking supplies. Flours, sugars, oils, oats, etc. I like it because everything is in front, as you spin. Also, there is space for little used items in the corners and sides.

I've finally figured out what I'll be doing with the corner in my new-construction kitchen. It's where I'll be stashing the tankless water heater. Close to the sink & dishwasher, so hot water should be fast. Accessible for repair - but not in the way when it doesn't need to be accessed. The very effort of getting to things in corners like that means I want something there I wouldn't have to access often. To me, putting the water heater is a perfect solution. (Height-wise, it may need to extend above the counter, which is fine. I'll just box it in to look pretty. That far corner of counterspace over a blind corner usually just collects grime & clutter anyway.)

I have that set up and love it. It’s fast to access, no folding doors, simple hardware that doesn’t break, bend or need adjustments. Some of the other options required you open a door, pull out a drawer, slide the drawer to the side, then pull out another drawer all for slightly more space utilization.

The last has the most potential for my needs. I would make it a cart for our Kitchen Aid mixer. Flip the top back to rest on swing out legs for extra work surface and put the mixer on a lift shelf. Lower pullout shelves would hold all the accessories we have. We don't use it frequently and it takes up a lot of counter space. When in use, it's a half-day process of making our own pastry and large batch of sausages to freeze. I got the idea from cabinets made for sewing machines.

My husband made a shelf for my mom about thirty years ago. It was that arrow shape one fixed shelfs on the sides. Each shelf could hold 100 pounds. This was about 33 years ago. She loved it she could get to the things she couldn't before. Her kitchen was small it gave her more storage. She had a hip replacement that made it more difficult to get to things.

In my newish kitchen, which I helped design, I have two corner lazy Susans 12:15 , one on each side. The one near the stove holds basic staples, like rice, pasta etc. The other holds all my small appliances, Cuisinart , toaster, can opener, blender etc. Both are made of wood with deep sides. The food one has a shelf underneath the top tier, which means that nothing falls into the back. I like the convenience and ease of use.

I have one lazy susan cabinet that I use for smaller appliances, and I do like it for that. The things I use regularly I can grab just by opening the door, so I only need to spin it for stuff rarely use it. And with appliances, they are heavy enough to not fall over/off. The biggie was that I could afford this "upgrade," and the only other choice I could afford at the time was your basic blind cabinet. It would have worked similarly with rarely used stuff in the back, but I think access is easier this way. If I redo my kitchen again, I'll be in a place to have many more options!

Way more interesting than seems possible! The thing about the “do nothing” solution: having seen the “stupid” ones where you get two cabinets with two doors instead of that one with the large open space and doors with a piano hinge; is that it’s way better to have the large open space. And you are charged more for that. I quite like it as large items seldom used could find a home in my kitchen. However, best thing is to not have corners. The thing we did with the peninsular is to put the dishwasher in the corner but in the back near the dining room table. Worked quite well for us.
@signespencer6887
@signespencer6887 7 месяцев назад
My old house had a different solution. There was a diagonal cabinet door in the corner- making a little more counter space above. Then there was a full lazy susan behind it- with a center pole and 4 special bins for each level with high sides so things didn’t fall off. Also easy to remove and wash. The same above for the upper cabinets but the lazy susans were smaller. Worked great.

We bought our home years after it was built. Yes we have a lazy susan and a pantry. The lazy susan holds all of our pots and pan with the exception of 3 pans I rarely use. 3 larger frying pans one of which is cast iron. I love that my pans are hidden and not below the stove where I have to dig for them.

Kraftmaid makes angled cabinets that fit on either side of the corner drawer bank. Kind of a modified blind corner but easier to reach in. No wasted space! My kitchen is too small to fit the corner drawers, but I used a left and a right angled cabinet and left a 6” open slot between them in the corner to store the stepstools I need every day.

We redid our kitchen a few years ago. We have three corner cabinets, two are on the dining room side and the third is a blind corner. My wife hates lazy susan corner cabinets. For the blind corner we did installed a lazy susan but at least each shelf rotates independently. For the two that back up to the dining room we installed ones with fixed shelves. I removed most of the rear plywood of each cabinet to provide access from both the front and rear. I made doors that match the paneling that covers the other cabinet rear. The doors are pretty unobtrusive. This makes the cabinets accessible from both the front in the kitchen and the entire cabinet from the dining room side. For the upper cabinet only one faces the dining room. We ordered that one with a door on the dining room side.

The second to the last one is the most hilarious idea. If you stuff so many things inside that cabinet and it gets so heavy, you need to take them out before you can pull it out from there to access the hidden cabinet haha. But its a good idea to have if you want to hide some things you don't want others to find out easily.

I have a corner pantry and I love it. We extended our ground floor and have a largish (in respect of uk houses) open living space (kitchen, dining and living room) and this cupboard stores so much stuff. It’s different to the one you show as the doors are straight across rather than corner shaped so it has more floor space and more shelf space. Regular sized Uk houses rarely have a pantry anymore, ones that did have mostly had them removed, in my mind totally wrong move, but these corner pantries are great if you have a space for them.

Here's what I did in my kitchen: I actually have an angled wall rather than a corner, but I think it would work for a corner, too. The base cabinets stop where the wall starts to angle (or hold the base cabinets back from the corner on both sides). That leaves a gap of about 18". I had the contractor build a bottom and a shelf spanning between the two cabinet sides. I put two large attractive baskets in there. One holds extra "tupperware" and one holds my magic bullet and all the accessories. An inexpensive solution since no cabinet or expensive hardware was purchased.

As a kitchen designer I think accessibility is key! If you have to move something to get to something then it's not as functional or accessible. The first slide out tray with the pull tray behind it looks like it would be a less expensive solution, UNTIL you consider what a pain it will be to get something off that back tray with items on the front tray in the way. Not to mention having to get down on the floor to reach it for an older person. That would irritate me to no end. The Magic Corner II is the MAC-Daddy of corner solutions, expensive yes, but if you are needing a solution for an "aging in place" situation it is worth the investment.

I live in a rental and the cabinet under the sink has a blind corner which I can't use because the pull out bins has to block it because of the plumbing. So I have actually thought about that first solution since I moved in and the fact that it works in that first example has pretty much solidified it completely.

My blind corner set up is kind of like the one with the 7 inch space but then the other part is large and instead of having a Lazy Susan, I just left it wide-open in there. No drawers, no shelves, etc. It holds large things like my dish strainer, a couple large plastic tubs, toolbox, etc. I actually like having that big empty space. and the small little space I put in a little separation type thing and I put my cutting boards and cookie sheets in there.

Why do you have to use that space in the kitchen? How about accessing it from the other room(s)? Ours could easily be accessed from the hall where I could really use the space for either one tall, skinny closet for cleaning stuff (mop, broom, vac etc) or, if I wanted to keep the corner counter area for the kitchen, two smaller cupboards above and below.

My shelves in Boston were a lot like the one you said "takes the cake". Instead of a heavy cabinet that you have to wrestle out from under the counter, I had shelves on wheels, that were very easy to move when fully loaded (use large wheels, because they're easy to move when the object is heavy. I recommend 3 or 4 inches). I didn't have a hidden cabinet in the corner behind it though. Just another rolling shelf for the other side of the L shaped countertop. Zero wasted space, and super easy to access everything.

I’ve seen pull out “islands” similar (but better executed) like the one at 16:10. On the ones I’ve seen they are on casters and have a handle on a false drawer front so you aren’t trying to pull it out by the door handles without opening the doors! 😆Once pulled out it had a butcher block top and a drawer that opened from the side. I think one I’ve seen was designed to be a baking cabinet so the surface height was lower for kneading and all the equipment used only when baking was stored inside. The ones I’ve seen were in the middle of a cabinet run and not designed as a corner solution.

I have a standard lazy Susan and I use it for all my small appliances. The top shelf holds a four slice toaster, my ninja foodie, cutting boards, standing up and a crock of utensils. The bottom shelf holds my hand mixer my food processor, my bullet plus accessories and a mini food processor. I’m pretty happy with this.

??? At about 3:33 where an upper cabinet is being shown you comment on the dishwasher placement below it. There is a filler in the corner so I’m curious what you don’t like about the dishwasher location? It looks to me like both it and the drawers beside it have enough filler for them to clear each other’s handles, so I’m curious what is wrong with it? A corner location is the only option I see when I remodel my kitchen, so I’m trying to figure out why that wouldn’t work.

"Technically" a dishwasher should not be that close to a corner. Sometimes there's no other way, but if it can be avoided it should be. The open door blocks the counter space and cabinets. It's not the end of the world, but there's a more functional approach. IMO

Best I have seen looks like a corner drawer bank, but when you pull on the handle it is actually a cart that pulls out. Once the cart is out of the way there are pie shaped shelves that swing into the area vacated by the cart.

I did one of those cabinets 2 doors and the center hinge, and just shelves in my laundry room, but did 15" on one side and 12" on the other so the opening is much larger. The reason I did it is because I live 2 hours from big box stores and buy toilet paper, paper towels and kleenex in bulk from Costco. The big packages were always in the way. But that huge cabinet swallows it all up. It's a great way to store bulk goods like that.

Early 80's had to put a new kitchen in our 1800's home. Lazy susan was the only option available. I was very happy with it. Yes, there was still a bit of wasted space but don't remember any other options at the time. Used solid oak Merrillat cabinets.
@elizabethwaldorf9275
@elizabethwaldorf9275 2 месяца назад
Man did you cover the options! Here's one idea using a standard corner base cabinet box. How about opening that standard double hinged corner door and have a semi-circle of vertical dividers for trays, baking dishes, cutting boards, etc. Typically, we use the above fridge cabinet for that stuff, but here's another option. Depending on your needs, you could do two layers of vertical storage in the corner cabinet. What I can't stand is stacks of shallow baking dishes, or platters. They are heavy and getting to the bottom one (which is the largest) is just a pain. I love the idea of having more vehicle dividers in a kitchen. So useful. Of the options you showed, the lazy Susan is not so bad, but I like the lazy Susan attached to the drawer faces. Pretty sweet.

Love your videos and especially that they are a perfect length! ❤ My biggest concern is the overhang depth for seating: hitting knees, no foot rest, chairs come in all sizes, best height, and sometimes builders add a step up narrow shelf that hides a mess, but is unusable. Corner cabinets are #3 on my list of peeves behind pantry solutions

That last corner solution is like something I did in a rental. It had shelves tucked under in the back and a big open space under the counter. I put two carts in there with stuff I used frequently. When I needed in the back, I pulled out the carts, got down on my hands and knees and crawed under the counter.

For me, the corner drawers are nice in a LARGE kitchen, especially for older folks. It provides full, easy access when youre afforded adequate storage space elsewhere. There's one situation where the corner pantry was the best solution for me (as the cabinet designer). It was kind of a cramped G-shaped kitchen and she wanted a tall oven cabinet. As opposed to doing a corner tall oven, i was able to shift it over, go into the corner pantry, and avoid a weird inaccessible counter space in a corner.
@GingerBiPolarBear

I actually really like the second last one. I've taken the two sides of the door apart and gave yhhem wide angle hinges because the weight if both was too much and the hinges kept breaking. That already made the cabinet way better. Im going to try to add that slide out and over ttpe thing too.

Most of these would not work in our kitchen. Our pair of doors in the corner are only 7” wide. An adult definitely can’t get shoulders in there. But your reviews help me think about what WOULD work. Before the solution, comes outlining the problem, followed by deciding what WON’T work.

The corner lazy susan without a high rail is the WORST. We had one when I was a kid and a can of food fell off in the back. It sat there for months, hanging the lazy susan up every once in awhile or making a 'clunking' sound whenever we turned it. Finally my mother had enough. The entire thing was stripped bare and it was my job to get in there to fetch the offending can. It was a struggle and we finally got it by me curling around the rod and my mom turning the whole thing around so i could reach it. It was wedged. Of course. I'd say it was an hour of work to empty, crawl, roll, pry, reorganize and put everything back total. Horrible. About a week later ANOTHER can fell off. We never bothered to fetch it out. The entire house pretended that it wasn't there for a few years until we moved. When we moved, we left the stupid can.

Years ago when putting together a kitchen with second-hand cabinets I wound up with a very large empty corner. I put in a two-tier lazy susan with 45 cut out that filled the available space. It was great for extra large items. To solve the "drop off" problem there was a piece of linoleum that wrapped around to block the corners.

I like several deep drawers for pots as I have a lot. Also a tray door for lap trays. If I had a choice I'd have all drawers for the bottom cupboards as I'm elderly and have arthritis so I can't kneel or bend - its much easier to pull out a drawer to see and reach whats inside. I also like a mini pantry for smaller kitchen which also houses a spice rack. My present kitchen has a cuboard with pull out racks for vegetables which I really like

Currently, I have a hinged corner cupboard with an L-shaped shelf, recessed so it only goes around the perimeter of the cabinet, allowing better access to the stuff at the back of the bottom of the cabinet. It's pretty functional, but whoever built the kitchen also put 2 4" drawers on either side (so tiny and barely functional and you can't open them at the same time). I'm looking for a simple option and found one that I did not see you review (probably because it is close to a 'do nothing' solution, like that one dude. Ha ha). Just have 2 shelves installed at 90deg with the bottom shelf 12"" high across the right side, and the top shelf about 24"" high (or whatever vertical space available) across the left side. This leaves HIGH storage space in 2 areas (bottom left; middle shelf on right), perfect for a blender, instant pot, soda stream machine, or other tall appliance storage; Then there are a couple of smaller areas that can be used too -- ordinary baskets that fit she shelves full of like-stuff are great for the corner cabinets. I'm having them remove the stupid useless drawers! LOL

Great video with excellent corner options. I think on the peninsula corner, you can cut a hole and insert a wine refrigerator, instead of dog food storage. My husband put a dishwasher in ours that is accessible from the back of the peninsula, which isn't the optimum location, but I didn't have a spot for a dishwasher without redoing the whole kitchen. We are a year or two away from a kitchen remodel. I think in the scenarios where you have 15" deep drawers you could do a pop-up TV screen behind them. TFS

There are some interesting ideas here. Thanks for putting this together. One thing I notice with some ideas - like the Le Mans - is that they need a certain amount of space outside the corner to be able to use them. My kitchen is a U shape with barely 30 ins between the opposite cabinets. I think I will take the bottom of the U through to the wall and then there will be two straight runs of cabinets facing each other and both corners can be full height regular cabinets (or fridge, etc.)

I explained to my designer that I hated corner cabinets but he didn’t come up with anything practical in my price range (i.e. budget!!) so I just put very little in that cabinet but I’ve picked up a few ideas from your video, thank you for showing all the options. I don’t like lazy Susan’s either but I can’t afford the magic cabinet idea so I am going with you, the wooden lazy Susan seemed a good idea 👍

A few large items in there, stuffed with all my canning gear… if I didn’t decide to use the space for that I would totally just block it off like you said you do. If I design and build another house I will go out of my way to not have corners in the kitchen haha I think I can do it. That is the best idea, if possible.

@ayamesilver

my favorite is the last 1. absolutely agree that it needs wheels because manhandling it is not practical, but being able to move the unit out also gives you another prep surface in addition to the storage. also, it's the most space saving out of all of them, besides the basic shelves. if you put a folding extension on the side of that, you could have even more prep space. if you can't tell, i have a very small kitchen 😂 basically non-existent counter space. for upper cabinets, you could have something that drops down for your extra storage or convert it into a pull station for bags, wipes, napkins, etc that you can load from the top or from the side with a divider.

I just redid my kitchen myself re-using my excellent cabinet boxes and maintaining the layout for about a thousand reasons. 1 reason was: the main issue I had with the kitchen was the soffit that I wanted to remove. I had 5 contractors give me estimates for a complete renovation with new cabinets etc. The lowest was $90k with me doing a lot of work like painting etc. The highest was minimum $140k and that did not include lighting or appliances. None of the contractors were confident the soffit could be removed and didn't want to poke any holes to find out. So I could not commit. I decided to reface myself and have custom doors built and I am so happy with my nearly finished results. I hired trades for things I flat out couldn't do. I am pretending the soffit is a tray ceiling. The best thing I did was turn 2 cabinets that were just doors with a shelf and 2 tiny upper drawers into 3 drawer cabinets. That has been the best most amazing change. I have 2 of these horrors- aka lower corner cabinets- in my 1996 kitchen. One has fixed shelves which I am ok with. I store my 3 large frying pans on top and they are easy reach. On the bottom, only at the forward edge are my large stock pot, my slow cooker, and my food processor. All are fine to reach and I can get to them easily. The other corner unit has a lazy susan. That worked beautifully and only housed colanders, and glass pyrex storage dishes on top, on the bottom I had a couple of boxes that contained vitamins and aspirin. Weirdly, after I started searching for Lazy Susan alternatives, my Lazy Susan broke. It is about 30 years old, after all. One of the best things I was/am interested in is a poleless Lazy Susan but it was pricey (it's on sale now) and I wasn't sure it would fit. Now I am revisiting it since my Lazy Susan is now compromised. I think the key with Lazy Susans and fixed corner shelves is do not overload these spaces. But I still hate them.
