The Qanto Corner Unit is a vertical lift system that addresses one of the most awkward spaces in your kitchen: the deep corner cabinet. Rather than crawling into the cabinet to reach items stored at the back, this mechanism brings everything up to worktop height at the touch of a button.

Where It Fits

This unit is designed specifically for corner base cabinets where you would typically lose storage space to poor accessibility. It works in kitchens where the worktop depth is at least 620mm and you have sufficient height above the worktop for the lifting mechanism to operate.

How It Works

The system consists of two storage levels that rise vertically when activated. The lower platform can hold up to 15kg while the upper platform manages 10kg. Integrated LED lighting illuminates the contents as they lift, so you can see exactly what you're storing. The entire mechanism moves smoothly and stops precisely at worktop height.

Why It Matters

Corner cabinets often become forgotten spaces where items disappear into the depths. This system means you can actually use that storage area effectively. You won't need to bend down or reach awkwardly to access heavy appliances or stored goods, which makes a real difference if you have back problems or mobility concerns.

Design Consideration

The Qanto works well when you need to store items you use regularly but don't want cluttering your worktops. However, you need to consider the space requirements carefully. The mechanism needs 696mm of clear height above the worktop to operate fully, and your worktop must be between 12mm and 28mm thick. The decor top finish allows you to match or complement your existing worktop material.

Build Quality

This is a Blum-specified mechanism manufactured by Ninka, arriving fully assembled and GS certified for safety. The lift system is engineered to handle daily use with smooth, controlled movement. The unit measures 582mm square, so it fits standard corner cabinet configurations.

Options

The decor top version allows you to specify a surface that matches your worktop. The mechanism is available in dark grey, though the visible lifting platforms can be finished to coordinate with your kitchen's colour scheme.

Closing Guidance

Consider whether you actually need the storage capacity this provides and whether the height requirements work with your kitchen's proportions. If your corner cabinet currently serves as a place where things go to be forgotten, the Qanto could genuinely change how you use that space.
