Hello Leon, We had used the method of stacking plastic boxes on top of each other inside the storage area. It was ok for a while but not only was it necessary for one to get down on their knees but also to lift the top box with its contents up and off the other box. Then while on our knees, we had to rummage through the contents of the lower box. Next was to lift box and set it back on top of the others inside the cabinet. Being on our knees, this put most of the lifting on the lower section of our spine. But then the most difficult part was getting back up to a standing position. The aisle is narrow and there is little to grab to use in pulling ourselves up. Having to do this many times during a trip prooved to be a real drag plus a pain in the back.

With this drawer set up, it was easy to remain standing and pull out the drawer, reach in and grab a can of soup or whatever. Also, the baskets come in three different depths. In one opening we opted to put the shallowest drawer at the top. This means anything small like spices, cocoa mix, etc were not buried under the contents in the dark storage compartment. I guess also that we wanted something more permanant.
