I know that Woodmade/Brookhaven has a rep in the Houston area. Your dealer should be working to make this right, but if they aren't or are giving up, I would look for the nearest Woodmode rep (they are the parent for Brookhaven) and contact them. I would get contact info and send them a photo of what you have and what they sent. You might even put a sticky note on each -- "this is what we have" and "this is not right." If you have a copy of the original contract or the order number, that should help them locate your order and get it right.

Can't help with the comparison, but will put in a plug for Brookhaven. I have Brookhaven cabinets, style Colony in color Sierra on Maple. These were installed about 6 years ago (when we did our kitchen remodel with much help from this board) and they still look great and I love them. The finish is extremely durable and the "special" cabinets are great (corner pullout, pot drawers, file cabinet, spice cupboard, etc). I didn't like the "rubber" (probably plastic) strips inside that blocked the slight gap between 2 doors that met, and have pulled these strips off, but that's probably my only complaint. Imagine pictures of my kitchen have long since scrolled off the gallery. Good luck with your remodel!

Hi! Good think I looked at this today! The other brands I compared to were Omega/Dynasty (a combination of the two), their other line--I'm blanking on the name, and Merrilat. I believe Brookhaven runs higher than these (though possibly close to the Omega, which for us would have been around $30,000--and that was NOT for inset, which would have been 25% more). Once we did all of our add-ons with Niviya the total came to around $24,000. We are getting our cabinets unfinished and having them painted, so it would be a little higher than that if we had them stained (10% I think) and about $6500 more if they were doing the factory finish paint. One of the best things for us was that Niviya only charged about $1000 more for the inset which was far less than anyone else. So, especially if you want inset, they are a great deal. Our cabinets will be ready in a couple of weeks and I can let you know how they are...in fact if you're local, you're welcome to come see them. You can email me directly at julie@juliebrodiephotography.com. Once you have your drawings, Niviya will give you a quote and you won't have to put any $ down until you see it. I wouldn't commit $ to any place before seeing a quote. Good luck and feel free to email! Julie

Please help! I'm stuck between Brookhaven Nordic white and alpine white edgemont recessed door. for counter tops, We are 99% sure we are going w Pental Quartz akoya, which is a light cream color w some very light beige swirls. Our island will be brown with black glaze on cherry. This, along w a warm neutral backsplash and wood floors to add some warmth and will hopefully be balanced. Also going to grab a sample of Taj Mahal Quartz as well. I took advice from others and looked at the doors separately. I do think this helped BUT I'm still SO torn. My KD likes the alpine white better since it is a softer white, a little more traditional, a has the warmer undertones. My husband likes the Nordic for the contrast against the darker colors in the room. I like Nordic for the crisp look, but am reluctant that it will not give me the warmth I'm looking for. Alpine is beautiful but a shade off from the trim around the house and while I don't think that matters a whole lot, the Nordic matches a bit better. I don't think I can go wrong either way BUT I know me and no matter which I choose, I will regret not going for the other. Do I go w the designer since my indecisiveness was a big reason i hired a KD in the first place? One final note, I took the samples to my neighbors house. She has an gorgeous kitchen but a little too bright white for me. The Nordic white was almost an identical match but she also has a lot of natural light in her home. We get a lot of natural light as well in the adjacent room but because of afternoon sun, have the shades closed most afternoons. would love to hear from those who may have had this same dilemma or have either of these colors! TIA!
