Relative cabinetry prices: brand vs. brand
Comments (203)So the contractor we were working with used only Mid-Continent Cabinets. After working with him since early June to put together a plan, he just told us yesterday he won't be able to start our kitchen until at least January. My husband is a contractor (works in commercial and medical development) questioned the breakdown of $25,000 for pretty standard cabinets which we think bugged the GC. I have $15,000 in Bosch appliances sitting in a warehouse and an engineer's plan for a beam to take out a wall. We are frustrated and disappointed. My husband is now considering coordinating our reno himself. Any suggestions on to pursue cabinet work - we our outside Orlando, FL......See MoreRTA Cabinet Help
Comments (51)I am a cabinet dealer in Raleigh, North Carolina. I mostly sell KCD (River Run and Carriage House are the same cabinets) and Fabuwood RTA cabinets. I have used both for about 5 years. I have been very pleased with both lines. The KCD line is less expensive than Fabuwood by quite a bit. The only real difference that I see in them are the pullouts (also a huge difference in price). Both lines are easy to assemble and both lines have a video to show you how to assemble them. I have never had a customer tell me that my quote was more expensive than any line of cabinets at big box stores. One thing that helps out a little on that though is that most of my customers can pick them up or have them delivered from the warehouse (located in Raleigh, NC). Shipping is fairly inexpensive as well (usually round $350). Of course that depends on how many cabinets, and where they are being shipped to. It is also more expensive to ship pantry and oven cabinets (requires a double pallet). Both lines are full overlay but, they do not have center styles so when you order a 42" cabinet, you get a 39" opening. KCD currently has 9 cabinets (two are furniture board) and will be adding more over the next few months. The next one to be added will be a white painted Shaker (very white....beautiful). It will be fully stocked by mid February....See MoreKitchen Cabinet (TSG/Fabuwood vs. Wellborn)
Comments (2)With 42'' wall cabinets, the pantry size you need will be 96'', not 90''. 90'' aligns with 36'' uppers. You don't get what you don't pay for. No way on the imports if you want to actually live in the house. Not crazy about Welborn either. Move up to a real midgrade US made line. Shiloh, Kraftmaid, Kemper, Medallion....See MoreRTA (Ready to Assemble) Cabinets
Comments (13)@Michelle glad it worked out for you. I'm going to measure the drawers of the Forevermark cabinets. From notes I had taken I believe they tend to be a little shallower. Such as on a 30" 3 drawer base stack, the drawers were 3", 5" 5". I looked at Kraftmaid same 30" 3 drawer base stack and they were 5", 8", 8". That's a big deal for me and may be a deal breaker. The cabinets are plywood boxes, soft close hinges, full extension drawers BUT if the drawers run shallower that won't work....See MorePerfect World Design
