What Size lazy Susan
What size lazy Susan do I need?
How to choose the size lazy Susan for my table?
Two considerations when choosing size...
Set ups and Reach.
Set ups are usually between 16 and 20 inches. The average
adult reach is between 17 and 21 inches. For your table
size of 62 inches "if round" the best size is a 30 inch
Susan. For your round table size of 72 inches then a 36
inch Susan. See Charts below.
This would leave you 16-18 inches for both set ups and
reach. Your guests will be able to reach items on the Susan
without standing, and you will have room for set ups.
Set Ups are plates, cups, silverware, napkins, mats. The size
of set ups vary and can be as small as 14 inches or as large
as 22 inches. The average set ups run 16-18 inches so
that is what we use for our formula.
Reach is defined as reaching items on the Susan without
standing. If your table is so large that it’s not functional,
then having a Susan that is to small will not fix the problem.
Having your guests reach items without standing will
allow functionality.
We offer sizes ranging from 14 inches up to 60 inches in 2
inch increments, so you can find the perfect size. Below
are picture examples of proper sizes. What is your perfect

guests, and specific table use.
For square tables that seat 8, unlike round tables,
your guests do not sit directly in front of the Susan,
causing them to reach farther, so the lazy Susan is
slightly larger to avoid standing.

We recommend using 2 lazy Susan turntables on
rectangular tables for full access to your guests.
Farmhouse style rectangle tables and huge
rectangle counter tops, rectangle islands, are
unique in needs.
A standard kitchen counter top is 23 to 24 inches
and usually the lazy Susan size is 22 inches to
utilize all of the counter space to allow easy access
of cups or other items.
Islands can have seating on one or two sides so
this would allow for a Susan to serve corner
seating. Feel free to contact us to get suggestions
for size recommendations.
