My husband and I put Bella Cera Monza french oak flooring (color Adriana) in our home about a year before we decided to sell. We loved it because it was the only engineered flooring I could find that actually looks like authentic traditional wide plank solid hard wood. There's no sheen to give it away. In fact a RE agent who sees tons of homes asked if it was solid wood and our installer who does tons of floors said he wanted it for his home. We got lots of compliments. We love it so much that we plan to put it in our new home that we're currently building.

The JSI factory is in Fall River MA. The address is: 485 Commerce Drive, Fall River, MA 02720 All of the displays are there and the cabinets are really lovely. However, they don't have full-extension drawers and only self-close not soft close. The drawers close hard/load. I was working with Stacey at Woodlist.com. He got me an appointment to see them. Their site also has a good list of the cabinets and trims available with sketches. The price point is higher than Nieghbors, but Stacey said that was flexible. Their link is below. I also went and saw the Kabinart cabinets that are available from mfkusa.com. They are great! There are lots of choices in doors, colors, cabinets and trim. The construction is top notch. The price is comparable to the JSI line. Has any one used the Kraftmaid cabinet buyer that goes to the warehouse for you? Here is a link that might be useful: Woodlist cabinets

Doing a quick online search of cabinetry makers in Charleston doesn't bring up any that advertise as Amish cabinetry makers, though there may be a few which you might find by calling individually. You will probably find a broader selection of Amish cabinetry makers up in Pennsylvania if you are willing to travel that far. QCCI is a one of the larger USA cabinetry companies that has an excellent reputation and is based in Pennsylvania, and I would recommend you checking with them if you are interested in top quality, traditional style. Plain & Fancy is another company that is located in Pennsylvania and has long held a reputation for premium finishes. Some people say it looks like their cabinets were dipped in the coating they are so perfect. Note that QCCI makes everything in house last I knew while Plain & Fancy at least in the past has utilized a third party for box components which means the interiors may not be as high of quality as QCCI's, though the coating may appear superior. Both QCCI and Plain & Fancy are going to be at the top of the price range, however. If you want to save money and look at local cabinetry makers, you have plenty of choices. My caution would be that cabinetry coatings that are not done in a factory where the cabinets are sprayed with two-part, post-catalyzed conversion varnish and heat cured may not provide the durable finish that you think you are paying for. Look for a company that offers a lifetime warranty on finish if you want a kitchen that will last for decades. I do happen to know a young cabinet builder who was trained in the Amish tradition out East and does impeccable work, but he is now located in Claremore, Oklahoma. His name is Tim Matveyuk, and he has a Houzz profile here: https://www.houzz.com/pro/tim-matveyuk/precision-woodworking-and-tile-llc Several of Tim's family members did tile work on my own home renovations and were outstanding. I discussed having him do my kitchen cabinets and really wish that I had gone with him because I ended up with some issues with the local manufacturer I selected that I do not feel I would have had with him, so it would have been worth it to me to go ahead and navigate the distance. I realize Oklahoma is a long way from Charleston, but you would probably save so much money working with him over a mass manufacturer that it might be worth your effort if you wanted the Amish look and quality. I did my own two-part, post-catalyzed coating on the unfinished cabinetry I ordered, so that was not an issue for me, but you could negotiate with a smaller builder like Tim to take cabinets to a professional finisher or to have the builder use a coating like Envirolak that is one of the few one-part coatings that tests similar to two-part coating durability.

I had originally come across this and other threads when trying to decide between Showplace and Shiloh. Based on what I read, they appeared to be about the same in terms of quality, function and features with Showplace potentially being slightly ahead. When comparing contractors and kitchen designers, we ended up selecting the one who sold Showplace. Overall, I feel like it was a mistake. We have several drawers that have not "self adjusted" as we were told they would. The drawers end up sticking when pushing them in so you end up having to push them again to actually have them sit flush with the rest of the cabinet. Some parts of the cabinets arrived a bit damaged as if they were dropped and Showplace has so far said that they do not think they are damaged enough to warrant replacing. These cabinets are still functional but the seems are a bit crooked, most likely from being dropped or simply being handled without care. Finally, one item that didn't seem to be mentioned anywhere is that Shiloh seems to include baseboard molding and molding for the bottom of the wall cabinets which creates a much more finished look. A family member of mine installed Shiloh cabinets. Theirs seem to align better than ours do, feel like higher quality cabinets and overall, look more finished due to the molding. From my own experience, Showplace and Shiloh are not on par with each other and Showplace is an inferior brand.
