We were disappointed at the number of shelves in the pantry, it seemed like it was more unusable space than usable. So, hubby added two shelves to increase storage. We got a wood stain from home depot to ty to match as close as possible, and it turned out pretty well. Attachments:

Looks good! Your lucky you have a wide cupboard. I had thought of doing that on our D250RES but cupboard is not that wide and sits between fridge and dinette table. It might make it hard to reach in and grab something out.

It might make it hard to reach in and grab something out. For a narrower cabinet, you could install shelves / drawers with drawer slides like some have. That would work well too.

That was the one thing we didn't get was a pantry, guess it was an option, with all the cabinets we are OK on the storage.

I thought of that but cupboard is 10 1/2” wide but opening is only 7 1/2” wide. We would lose a lot of space with drawers barely 7” wide. I’d have to really think about an extra drawer vs leaving it as is.

Nice work Chulavista, looks factory. I will agree, some cabinets need shelves. I have added a few in a BR cabinet, as well as some of those wire rack pull put shelves in the kitchen, but as noted, the pull out feature does use up some of the width.

As stated, the pull out shelves use up some of the width - so what is your priority, right! I'll be loading this pantry in the next week or so, I'll decide then if I really like it or not! I'm sure I'll be just fine with it though, hubby wanted to make sure canned goods would fit in the shortest shelves.

Looks great, Kathy! I want to add pull-out shelving in our pantry. As it is, we can't load the pantry prior to traveling, and have to take the shelves down. Useless. Probably my one biggest complaint about this rig.
