Kokeena does rift sawn oak door fronts for IKEA cabinets, if that might work for you. (Have never used them so can't speak to the quality, though.)

Thank you. Unfortunately, I have non-standard dimensions in this remodel, so I wouldn't be able to go with IKEA cabinets, else I would.

" I have non-standard dimensions in this remodel "

Maybe I am mistaken but the benefit and cost savings in RTA is the fact that they produce standard sizes for quick pick up or shipping, so you may not be able to get RTA anyhow. If changing all the cabinets can you not switch out to standard sizes? They make filler strips for RTA for just these occasions.

I always thought it was a myth that you can't use Ikea in a non-standard dimension space. We've put it into multiple kitchens where we had runs with walls at both ends and had no problem finding a cabinet combo that gave us the dimensions we needed, plus a small spacer at the ends so that we could open the cabinet doors against the walls.

Conestoga (you can buy RTA through Cabinet Joint) does quarter sawn oak, and they can do frameless cabs and slab fronts I believe. this is one of my cabinets in quarter sawn white oak.

Thanks, all.

Conestoga doesn't do frameless, so they are out, amongst other reasons about their business workings, which I won't delve into but have made the news.

H202, I suppose that is true in some situations, but there is no way standard dimensions can work for us without filler strips in many different locations.

Raimondi and HU*, Doesn't sound like you are particularly familiar with the RTA market. Maybe true for 85% of the places, but there are some well produced cabinets coming out of places like barker, scherrs, conestoga - just have to find the right place.

Millworkman - not necessarily. Cheap shops, yes, but the upper end RTA mfg's will go to 1/8" or 1/4" increments in multiple directions. Filler strips aren't going to work well in this situation... definitely need a mfg that can get to the nearest 1/4".

I just ran the numbers on the barker site, and admittedly, I can't quite get to my exact configuration using the tool, but close. And, they are quarter sawn, not rift sawn, which will make a difference. Clear coat finish. Came back about $22.5k. Would definitely prefer a fully assembled cabinet, just can't spend $25k more for what some local cabinet makers are seeking, but still have a few estimates outstanding. When your remodel is more than 6 figures off the mark, due to unforeseen circumstances (ok, guess we will re-sheath the roof, replace the subfloors, mitigate the asbestos, etc)... and the kitchen wasn't in-scope, until the subfloor mess.. you have to make some concessions. I'll ask a dealer for an omega quote. Do you have any affiliation with them?

Thanks. When I spoke to a local dealer for Omega, they said they'd be happy to get me a quote, noting that sometimes Omega is at a premium for features available, which may not be desired, and mentioned another brand which I haven't researched yet, Eclipse. However, didn't sound like Eclipse has a dull/flat sheen option, and I think finish durability is a bit part of the overall product and longevity. Diving into what finishes (both clear and pigment, as the island will likely be paint) are durable and perform well is probably the next task.

Understood that finish is a bit and critical part of the product and production. None of my quotes were unfinished.

For posterity, my Omega quote came back at $45k, and my custom cabinet maker options came back between $35-50k.
