Is there a problem with 33' corner base cabinet?

17 years ago

Hi, I'm in the middle of getting designs/quotes for a kitchen remodel. One of the designers told me to never get a 33" corner cabinet, and they wouldn't do it. It would be impossible to access things in the cabinet.

I wanted a 33" cabinet because the sink wall is 99" in a U shape kitchen. I wanted a 33" sink base cabinet and that will only work with the two 33" corner cabinets.

Anyone have the 33" cabinet? Do you find it inconvenient or have any problems with it?

I have a 33" corner cabinet and I really don't like it. In addition to the opening being too small, the lazy susan inside is very hard to turn. The small opening might not bother me as much if the motion of the susan were better. Also, my cabinets are framed; frameless construction would give you a slightly bigger opening, which would probably be a lot better. I have a 36" super susan too, which is wonderful.
