Magic corner carousels for corner larder unit

Hi My mum is finding it difficult in accessing items from her base kitchen units. She has seen a tall corner larder unit in a high street DIY store which has a five tier corner carousel unit ( 2m mondo unit) which would suit her needs. However the unit is very expensive, can anyone suggest where we might be able to source one of these a five tier corner carousels from any other suppliers? The ones I have found on the internet all seem to be two tier for the base cabinets. Many thanks

    I think what you are describing some suppliers call a 'Le Mans' corner system, they are kidney shape shelves that fully rotate out of the corner unit in an 'S' shape movement. These systems are rather costley but are much better than a shelf in a corner base unit. Do you just want to install the shelves into an existing unit or do you need the carcase as well? You may need a visit from a proper kitchen designer to see if there needs to be a bit of a re-design to make sure what corner systems will work best for you.

    No, the OP is refering to a larder Mondo unit (pretty sure they are 1965mm high, for a 150mm plinth, to suit a 900x900mm L-shape corner space) They are a new item, being trialled in only a few places and as a result, they are quite expensive..

    The LeMan system is designed to be used in a straight base corner unit (for a carcase between 800mm and 1000mm) and as a result, sits under the worktop. So this ISN'T what you are looking for.

    There are various mid-height corner systems available (usually from the german suppliers RWK, kutchenhaus, poggenpohl etc or Stoneham) but these are VERY expensive...
    If it looks like a duck, and quacks like a duck, we have at least to consider the possibility that we have a small aquatic bird of the family anatidae on our hands
