Those things waste a lot of space... I'd remove them. I have two
corner cabinets that are quite deep, so I use them to store tall items
like paper towels stacked on end, aluminum foil/wax paper, plastic
wrap boxes on end, 2 liter soda bottles, way into the depths gallon
jugs of emergency water, and near the front 1.75 L bottles of Crystal
Palace. I wouldn't think to store canned goods in any bottom cabinet,
they are all too deep and too low... I hate creeping about on the
floor to find stuff. Bottom cabinets are for storing large items one
doesn't use on a daily basis, even a monthly basis. But I do use
those small plastic lazy susans from Rubbermaid (I have three) in one
of my upper cabinets for storing spice bottles; items on the lazy
susan and items around the perimeter, no wasted space. I don't store
many canned goods and rarely used items in my kitchen, that's what a
basement is for.
