Reaching items in the very back of my tallest cupboards can be a challenge. Unfortunately, that's where I keep some common staples, like vinegar. To help keep my bottles of vinegar, soy sauce, fish sauce, and other pantry items organized, I use the OXO Good Grips Lazy Susan.
OXO is one of our favorite kitchenware brands: we've reviewed everything from the signature OXO Pop Containers to one of the best baking sheets. The spinning turntable makes it so that I don't have to remove four or five bottles just to get something out of the back of the cupboard. Instead, I turn the lazy Susan and grab what I want.
The OXO Lazy Susan comes in two sizes (11 and 16 inches), each under $20. Whether you use these in your cabinets or refrigerator, they're a great way to keep you from forgetting about a bottle of hot sauce you bought on a whim or help you organize all your spices. For more storage tips, check out our guide to the best cheap kitchen organization ideas.
Organizing my kitchen cabinets
Before I put the OXO Lazy Susan in my cupboard, I kept the taller bottles behind the shorter ones so I could see everything. But that meant I was pulling out bottles to grab frequently used items, like soy sauce.
I do lose some cupboard space with this lazy Susan. I have the smaller version, which is about 11 inches wide at the base and about 9 inches around on the platform itself. Right now, I have 12 bottles of various sizes nestled in the turntable.

A fridge storage solution
With its relatively small footprint, the turntable fits a lot of places where you might not think to put it. Insider Reviews' Executive Editor Sally Kaplan uses the OXO Lazy Susan in her refrigerator to keep little jars from disappearing for weeks.
"The rubberized surface means glass jars don't slip around, and the whole thing is also very easy to clean," Kaplan said. It may also save you from having to pull out your refrigerator shelves as often since it catches wayward drips from your condiments.
