Adelphi vs Omega cabinets
Comments (0)I'm in the infancy stage of gutting/expanding my kitchen. I've read through many of the cabinet threads and overall both the Adelphi and Omega cabinets get good reviews. Does anyone have personal experience regarding quality and cost? How would you rate these in terms of middle of the road, upper middle, etc? Also, what has been your process with selecting a KD and/or contractor? Do you feel that you get a better rate from a KD that is not part of a kitchen design retail store? Did you pick your KD based on the cabinet brands sold at the store? What is the difference b/n custom vs semi-custom? Is semi-custom by the inch and custom any size?...See MoreHas anyone used Dynasty (by Omega) inset cabinets?
Comments (9)I have Omega custom entirely, but I do have inset shaker style doors with a bead. I love them, they're gorgeous and wonderful quality. I'm not sure if your dealer has mentioned it, but you can mix Dynasty and Omega if you need something that Dynasty does not have (Buehl did this). Use Dynasty for the bulk of your cabs and then do the island in the black from Omega (they do an antiqued black finish and can do it on any door that either dynasty or omega make). On a personal note, I'm totally against the island in a different color as I think this will be a dated thing soon, but if you have the right kitchen, and are shooting for an unfitted look, than do the island in a totally different finish and door style that flows well with the others to make the look make sense. If you don't...well that's ok too :) It's your kitchen! These are all unfinished pics...sorry: As to the custom verses dynasty or omega...If I lived in the lower 48 (ok i forgot, I now do LOL) I would use a custom cabinet maker as they would be cheaper than the Omega custom kitchen and probably easier to deal with, but in Alaska, I had less options. Either way, I don't think you'll regret dynasty or omega...they're both lovely (the difference is higher end finishes and totally custom for omega by the way, but the same company makes both). If you look at Buehl's kitchen you'll see that the two are seamless when mixed...See MoreProblems with omega cabinets tarin line?
Comments (56)I am writing to clarify some of my previous comments which were not entirely accurate and Houzz does not allow me to edit/correct my posts. I put an order through today with a walnut-veneered slab door. This thread got me thinking and in order to give my customer accurate information, I called to speak with Omega customer service. The original poster's door is outsourced. It arrives at the Omega factory already veneered but unfinished. Other parts of this kitchen ( veneered plywood cabinet sides and panels) come from a different supplier. To add to the issue, there are solid walnut pieces such as crown. Therefore, in any one walnut kitchen, you have the potential of three different finish aesthetics. Everything is stained at the Omega factory, but the veneers on the doors (minimal sap wood) differ from the veneers on the plywood (up to 20% sap wood), which will differ still from solid wood. This can result in slight color differences. I have sold several walnut slab kitchens without issues. The kitchen in this original post obviously has some! Knowing Omega like I do, I know anything that needs replacement will be taken care of....See MoreName brand paint match for Omega Cabinets Oyster color
Comments (1)Thank you to both replies. I learned a lot just now. We will go for a nice cointrasting color to compliment what is already in the kitchen space. Thanks again....See Moredav200
