Normally, apples for apples, Medallion will price out slightly more....not less than KraftMaid. The two doors you have picked out are not apples for apples. The Lindsey door is one of KraftMaid's most expensive doors. The Brookhill door is a basic raised panel door w/ matching 5pc drawer front. KraftMaid's equivalent to Brookhill is called Marquette. Have your KM salesperson also quote you Marquette. With a standard finish, the Brookhill will quote out just under KM. But with the premium glaze finishes, Medallion should be a little more. Factory incentives may also affect the price. KM usually has more discounts. Here's my input on quality: 1. Medallion has a slightly better finish than KraftMaid 2. Medallion has better quality control. 3. When you do a glaze finish with Medallion, it's a matte finish and is really nice! KM's will still have a standard semi-glossy sheen. Which is fine...but I really like the matte finish better. 4. Medallion has a higher upcharge for premium finishes 5. Integrated matching doorstyle end panels are SO much nicer with Medallion. I could post two pics on Tuesday if you're interested in seeing the difference. 6. Medallion offers custom height mods....if that's important. 7. Soft close drawers are standard on KM. An upcharge with Medallions middle line (Designer). Will add about $35 per drawer w/ Medallion. 8. I recommend that you upgrade the end panels to wood....whether you go with Med or KM. I would only upgrade the EXPOSED end panels to save $. 9. Medallion has one flaw that annoys me. They only offer 3 drawer box heights. So, some of their drawer boxes can be shorter than the actual opening in the framework. KM has taller sides of their pot/pan drawers. Overall....if all things were equal, I would go with Medallion over KM. Just a nicer looking/feeling cabinet. It looks more like a custom finish! Here is a photo of a maple Brookhill bathroom with one of the glazed finishes. Notice the integrated matching end panel on the wall cabinet??? I like how Medallion does them with corner mitre joints! You don't see a vertical 'seam' along the side of the end panel. This is nicer than how most factory high-end cabinets do this. Some competitors will argue it's not as stable....but we've never had issues with separation at all! . Both are having promotions right now. KM: 10% off. Upgrade to all ply construction and receive a free premium finish upgrade. This sale might have ended this weekend. Medallion: 5% off (except for Silverline...has free sink base)

I will say that when we did our new build kitchen 2 years ago, there were a few issues with what was shipped. Our crown molding was the wrong style. They promptly replaced it and I believe our KD kept the wrong shipment. The thing that drove me and our KD the most crazy was the bookcase that sits on our counter. The first shipment had a very nice beadboard panel. That was it. No shelves, no sides, no top. The second try came as a full bookcase, but only painted on the outside. Oh, and the beadboard was installed to face the wall. Third try it came out fine. Our KD took pictures to show their quality control people. How they thought a flat panel was a bookcase, I've yet to figure out. I wanted to keep the inside out bookcase to put in our garage, but they wanted it back. It was very well built. ;)

The Kitchen Place, Kraftmaid all plywood Sonata Maple in Canvas Suede. A Kraftmaid rep did come to our home to see the issues and in response stated, "in relation to the cabinet boxes with the thin paint finish the best way to remedy that issue will be to install decoratvie panels and use touch up paint for any areas the panels will not cover." Masco mailed us a can of spray paint which stated on the instuctions that is was only to be applied wearing appropriate protective breathing apperatus in well ventilated area. Difficult as the cabinets were already installed. I will try to post photos of chipped door edges tomorrow for you. www.kitchenreviews.com/cabinets/reviews/kraftmaid/ There are reviews for 2019 here and most express the same problems.

Bump. Curious which cabinet manifacturer you went with. Thanks!
