How much did your kitchen cabinets cost? + pics!
Comments (3)I was lucky enough to get mine through an employee discount at Kraftmaid. I paid less than $6000 for mine and they were over $25000 retail. I don't have an exact pic of mine as we are installing, but I picked durango natural hickory cabinets. I got 23 cabinets with all the bells and whistles. Door/racks, pull outs, spice drawers, pot and pan drawers, trash bins. I am in love with them and very happy with the product. I will post my own picks when complete, but I did add link. Nothing had to be replaced or repaired and the customer service was excellent through Kraftmaid. I have read horror stories about people having to go through their retail supplier due to problems, but dealing directly with Kraftmaid was a pleasure.

Comments (5)Cabinets are priced so competitively right now, as a kitchen designer I'm finding that frequently it doesn't even pay to replace the doors, panels and edgebanding (known as refacing) when you can buy new cabinets for only slightly more. I would hesitate to put that much money into IKEA cabinets. If they were all wood cabinets in otherwise great condition maybe painting would be a good choice.

Comments (16)Is this an area of flat ceiling that is 6'5" or does it slant down to 6'5" over part if it. In my location if the lowered portion is over counter areas or fixtures and not in areas where one walks, or is a soffit-type drop that doesn't involve the entire ceiling it is sometimes allowable, although 7' is the minimum ceiling height in kitchens and bathrooms in my location, technically. However I live in an area with extremely old and small housing stock where a kitchen and bath were often added as a lean-to type structure on the back of a house that originally did not have one. Alternately some very large houses with high ceilings (commonly 14') on the first floor were lofted with a kitchen above or below and a bath above or below the loft portion, resulting in two areas of ceiling height of about 6'6". These areas are grandfathered in terms of already preexisting conditions and the envelope is grandfathered allowing a remodeled kitchen or bath in the same space. (As long as the undersized structure is sound). I've done and seen done permitted remodels under these conditions. Because if they weren't permitted, lots of housing stock would be "uninhabitable" and the entire lot size would need to be changed in order to build currently fully compliant housing--many lots are too small to build something compliant. Brand new construction of multiple units often demands the demolition of say 5 houses and replacement with 4. I doubt my situation is applicable in many areas but the point is that existing conditions will be grandfathered locally. This would never fly in someplace like California for example So your locale may grandfather some preexisting conditions if they complied at some past time, to avoid the necessity of complete demolition of a portion of the house. (If the structure is sound, otherwise)....See MoreHow much misalignment between cabinet doors is too much?
Comments (9)Yup, you should ask the installer to fix this. Hopefully these cabinets have the kind of hinges where you loosen/tighten screws which makes the doors move up/down and in/out. If the installer does it, he can probably fix the whole kitchen in nothing flat. If you have to do after watching youtube videos, well, it will take a little longer. :-)...See MoreDIY2Much2Do
