There's no shortage of options when it comes to organizing your kitchen, which is why the absolute best kitchen cabinet organizers can get lost in the clutter. (No pun intended.) Luckily, their best-selling status and stellar reviews often set the must-haves which combine durability and practicality apart. Still, when shopping for the most clever organization products for your cabinets, you should consider two main things: the function and the size.

Simply put, different organization products do different things. Before you buy anything, think about which areas and which items most need your attention: Are your plates impossible to get to due to the bowls stacked on top of them, or are your pans and bakeware in need of a serious overhaul? How about those cans in the pantry or those food storage lids in that drawer? There's a solution for every problem — you just need to scan through your kitchen and narrow down your top organizational priorities before you start shopping.

The function isn't the only factor, though. Always check the dimensions and break out that measuring tape before you click "buy" on any particular organization product. (The design may be genius, but if it doesn't fit in your cabinet, it won't do you much good.) Scroll on for products that make your cabinets look 10-times more organized — and the dimensions are listed right below each one for your convenience.

1. The Best Kitchen Corner Cabinet Organizer

The DecoBros organizer does two things simultaneously: It creates new tiers that stack items on top of each other to utilize vertical storage, and it makes use out of the corners to maximize space in your cabinets. Thanks to its durable iron construction, it can hold everything from plates and bowls to shallow pans — and some reviewers even use it in the fridge for meal-prep organization.

  • Dimensions: 13.1 x 9.8 x 7.5 inches

2. A Brilliant Over-The-Cabinet-Door Solution

The possibilities are endless when it comes to this genius hanging basket from SimpleHouseware. It clasps over any cabinet door (or it can be mounted to the wall with the included hardware) to create additional space for cutting boards, baking trays, food storage wraps, cleaning supplies, and even irregularly shaped kitchen tools. "This is a great addition to our kitchen," one reviewer wrote. "It frees up space for other things and it was really easy to assemble."

  • Dimensions: 13.5 x 3.62 x 9.49 inches

3. These Stackable Can Racks

These stackable racks are designed to store up to 36 cans at once — all in an accessible and visually pleasing way. That said, reviewers have found plenty of alternative uses for them: jars, wine, foil, plastic wrap, and water bottles are also a great fit. Each order even comes with six adjustable dividers so you can personalize the rack to your needs. The four color options mean you can match it to your kitchen's fixtures, too. It assembles in minutes without the need for tools.

  • Dimensions: 17 x 11.5 x 14 inches

4. The Best Under-Shelf Storage

Maximize the storage space in your cabinets with these hanging baskets, which hook onto most standard-size shelves to provide additional organization underneath. Since they're made from solid metal, they're sturdy enough for plates in the cabinet, cans in the pantry, or leftovers in the fridge — and since they slide on without the need for hardware, they're a damage-free storage solution for renters. Get them in your choice of silver, bronze, or white, all in a value-friendly two-pack.

  • Dimensions: 5.25 x 12.75 x 12.75 inches

5. This Best-Selling Under-Sink Organizer Rack

I have one of these SimpleHouseware organizers in my bathroom and another in my kitchen — and if I had any more under-sink storage, I'd buy yet another one. Its genius design expands to fit your cabinet, but most importantly, you can rearrange all of the modular shelves to accommodate your plumbing. Since it's made from perforated steel, it's durable, easy to wash, and well-suited for everything from toiletries to cleaning products.

  • Dimensions: 15 to 25 to 11.25 x 15 inches

6. An Expandable Spice Rack

Thanks to this tiered spice rack, you'll be able to see all of your herbs and seasonings — even the ones all the way in the back. Its three-step design is made from durable, eco-friendly bamboo, and it extends from 8.75 to 15.5 inches to fit a wide range of cabinets. (It's not just for spices, either; some reviewers also use it for sauces, canned foods, essential oils, and supplements.)

  • Dimensions: 8.75 to 15.5 x 8.25 x 3.3 inches

7. A Great Solution For Crowded Drawers

While it's technically for your drawer (not your cabinet), it's hard to ignore this number-one best-selling solution in kitchen organization products. The Joseph Joseph DrawerStore cutlery tray layers your forks, knives, and spoons on top of each other to save ample space — but since they're fanned out and labeled with minimalist icons, you can still see and grab exactly what you need. Choose between two sizes and three colors (or opt for an in-drawer knife block or accessories organizer).

  • Dimensions: 15.55 x 4.33 x 2.24 inches

8. These Expandable Shelves

Sometimes cabinet shelves are too spaced out, and that results in wasted storage. Bridge the gap between non-adjustable shelves with this Seville Classics solution, which allows you to stack your kitchen essentials on top of each other without rendering anything inaccessible. It's adjustable to fit cabinets between 15.75 to 30 inches wide, and it's made from sturdy iron with a sleek platinum finish. Use it for everything from dishes to canned goods.

  • Dimensions: 9.4 x 15.75 to 30 x 5.7 inches

9. This Best-Selling Pot Lid Holder

If you spend a lot of time looking for the right pot and pan lids, consider this brilliant organization solution: an over-the-cabinet-door rack that keeps the lids accessible, yet compact and out of the way. It can also be mounted to the wall or door of your choice, and since each order comes with two separate racks (in either chrome or bronze), you can store six lids in total. No wonder it's a best-selling option.

  • Dimensions: 9.5 x 4 x 11.2 inches

10. A Lazy Susan For Your Cabinet

Smooth-turning, an ideal size for your cabinets, lined with easy-to-clean, non-skid material — what more could you want from a turntable? This lazy Susan from Copco has more than 8,000 reviews and a 4.6-star rating. Its dual tiers are a great size for spices, cans, a coffee and tea station, and more. Plus, the raised rim prevents things from falling off when you turn it. "I bought 3 of these and am so thrilled I just ordered a fourth!" wrote one reviewer who's reorganizing their walk-in pantry.

  • Dimensions: 12 x 12 x 7.5 inches

11. The Best Food Storage Lid Organizer

Odds are, your food storage containers stack inside of each other — but the lids often end up in a disorganized heap or form an ever-tumbling tower. No longer. The YouCopia StoraLid has five adjustable dividers that file food storage container lids (both square and round) up to 9 inches. It's also BPA-free, easy to clean, and sets up in under a minute without the need for any tools.

  • Dimensions: 10.4 x 13.2 x 3.3 inches

12. The Best Pan Organizer

Cookware is notoriously hard to store, but the SimpleHouseware pot and pan organizer rack has more than 10,000 reviews for a reason: It stacks pans, shallow pots, and lids, either vertically or horizontally, in the cabinet of your choosing. You can even secure it in place with the built-in screw holes and included hardware, and since it keeps everything separate between its wire rungs, you don't have to worry about scratching your nonstick surfaces.

  • Dimensions: 9 x 8.75 x 12 inches

13. The Best Sliding Drawers

The Lynk sliding shelves help you reach all of your ingredients, gadgets, and more at once so grabbing it is a breeze. Thanks to its steel-chrome construction and smooth-rolling wheels, you can access anything that would otherwise be shoved into the back of a cabinet. Some reviewers even use it for their in-cabinet garbage and recycling bins. Plus, since it comes in a seven different sizes, it's easy to get the one that fits your space.

  • Dimensions: 21 x 11 x 4 inches (or 6 other sizes)

14. The Best Bakeware Organizer

Keep your cookie sheets, trays, tins, glass bakeware, and cutting boards neat and ready to go. The YouCopia Bakeware StoreMore rack creates an instant filing system — and the steel dividers are adjustable so you can customize the fit to your specific items. Best of all, since things are stored horizontally instead of on top of each other, everything is accessible and nothing gets scratched. "Loved it so much I bought a second one immediately!" one reviewer raved.

  • Dimensions: 7.25 x 11.5 x 6.38 inches
