Magic corner unit?

[jenny60]

Sorry to be boring, but please tell me which of these is best. Can't link as on phone but am looking at the Haffele magic corner and the Le Mans ( the one that is kidney shaped). I'm willing to pay more for the Haffele but don't want to pay £200 more for a couple of inches more storage space.

Are there other brands anyone can recommend.

Would appreciate your views as have to decide ASAP.

If you get a le mans make sure the shelves swing out independently. You will pay more but it makes it a lot easier to get stuff off the bottom shelf.

I have had both, and I actually prefer the Le Mans. Make sure you get the good quality, sturdy one where each shelf swings out independently.

The magic corner is ok, but it seems like the Le Mans is much sturdier so I have no qualms about loading it up. It's used as my main jars and tins storage so quite heavy stuff. Mine is this one - it comes in different sizes

Hafele is a very sound maker and is used by lots of kitchen companies for their gadgetry.

Are you buying it from the kitchen supplier? if you know a skilled joiner he might be willing to source one and fit it for you

My magic corner didn't last 3 years before it broke
I would have lemans but as others have said, make sure the shelves operate independently

Think carefully about what you're planning to keep in that cupboard. If you don't need regular access to it, it may not be worth getting any type of magic corner - you get more storage space without.

Thanks very much. Le Mans it is.

Banana: I know what you mean as some of the stuff in the corner is hardly touched. But I don't have much storage in the kitchen overall so do need to get to what is in the front and middle parts of the cupboard more easily.
