Default Kitchen cabinets

The half upper shelves in the kitchen cabinets are driving me crazy.
If they have rollers on the bottoms they could have had
full upper shelves.
I really don't want to put rollouts on uppers - feel like
they waste a lot of space.

Did any of you put full uppers, and if so, who did you get
to do it?

Thanks!

I replaced my half shelves with pullouts works fine gained space and very easy access. All but the corner unit.

On a side note--- if you have upper corner cupboards with the clips that hold the shelves in place -- you can't adjust the shelves unless you break the top clip off of each little pin. I verified this with our builder. It was a hassle to fix it -- but important enough to be able to adjust shelves and to be able to put lazy Susans so I can access the space. Works great now.

At our home up North, we have roll out uppers and I love them. We just closed on a villa and one of the first things I want to do is add roll out uppers in my lower cabinents. They make it so easy to grab the pots, etc that you use everyday. Has anyone used the guy who advertises in the Sun for $38 roll outs?

I took out the upper half shelf (VERY stupid cost saving design), and moved the roll-outs (which were mounted at the bottom) to that position. Cost nothing, and gave us more usable space.
