Lazy Susan
A rotating shelf assembly installed inside a corner cabinet to bring items stored in the back within easy reach. Lazy Susans come in full-circle and kidney-shaped (D-shaped) configurations and spin on a central pole or bearing. They are one of the most effective solutions for utilizing otherwise wasted corner cabinet space and are available in plastic, wire, and wood.
