"Beautiful Cabinets"
We recently renovated our kitchen and I found some lovely KraftMaid cabinets in cherry finish with beveled glass doors. They're very beautiful but installing them was a bit difficult as I worried about breaking the glass in the cabinet doors. The customer service was average and they were on sale for 15% off, which did influence our decision to buy them.

"Cabinets For A King"
I currently own the KraftMaid Honey Spice Maple OLMSTED kitchen cabinets. They are a delight to have because they provide quality storage while giving a sleek wooden finish to brighten up the kitchen. The Honey Spice Maple coloring is magnificent under the white lights beaming down upon it. I have owned the cabinets for the past 2 years after I moved into a house that it was prebuilt in. I dislike the fact the cabinets need to be cleaned and dusted frequently inside and it is hard to clean in the corners, I have never had to repair or replace it but in the future I may consider it. The only minor repair I had for these cabinets was when I had to sand down the door edges because our cat would scratch them and leave marks. I would definitely buy this brand again and recommend it to a friend.

"Disappointed with Kraftmaid Product"
I purchased my Kraftmaid kitchen cabinets from home depot about 6 years ago. They were presented to me by the salesman as some of the best cabinets on the market. I quickly found that to be an untrue statement. Upon delivery of the cabinets I found that 3 of them were damaged so badly that they could not be installed. We contacted Kraftmaid and they agreed to replace them. This alone took over 3 weeks to get the replacement cabinets delivered to me. Once all of those issues were resolved we finally got the cabinets installed, though I was still unhappy that my project was put behind schedule by over 3 weeks. I will say that I was very satisfied at first with the appearance of the cabinets but soon found that this would not hold true for any length of time. I started to notice small blemishes on the surface of the cabinets after just 2 months time. I contacted the manufacturer and was told that this was normal due to the drying process of the finish of the cabinet and the fact that I lived in Florida. In addition I was told to give it a few more moths and the finish would dry out evenly. I waited about 6 months after the install and still the finish on the cabinets looked uneven and blotchy. I again contacted Kraftmaid but I did not receive any satisfaction at all from them. I was so unhappy with the quality of their product that in less than 1 years time I had the cabinets replaced with a custom manufactured cabinet. I will say that I will never ever purchase another Kraftmaid product again. the main reason for this is their complete lack of customer service. If the company would have offered to help me resolve the issue I would have been more than happy to keep their product but they did not seem to care and offered no resolution to my problems at all.

"KraftMaid Cabinets"
I just recently bought a beautiful sprawling set of KitchenMaid cabinets. I went with the classic and traditional package. They are absolutely stunning they are made entirely of oak. I have not had any problems with the cabinets except for the fact that i have way to much room now. No problems in the repair department ither, very sturdy built cabinets, heavy duty hinges and handles. As well as the finishing gloss coat, they just glimmer when the morning light hits them. I would recommend these cabinets to anyone, regardless of the style or make. All exceptional cabinets.

"Cheap cabinets, not worth the money"
To subliment the existing storage space in our small home, my husband and I decided to purchase a set of two cabinets that could be installed in our kitchen. Several friends had suggested Kraftmaid cabinets because they had them in their own homes, and they were affordable and attractive. So we decided to follow our friends advice and ordered two oak cabinets from Kraftmaid. The price was quite reasonable and the installation was easy. For the price we received two very appealing cabinets that had plenty of space inside to store dishes and food. We had the cabinets for about 2 months before we noticed any issues. However, at the two month mark, we noticed that the hinges on both of the cabinets were starting to give out. The doors were basically falling off. It wasn't an installation issue- the screws used to hold the doors on were provided with the cabinets, but they were apparently made of very cheap metal. The weight of the doors had actually bent them. If you need cheap cabinets, you might like these, but you can probably find better quality for less money.

"Kraftmaid cabinets++++"
I had my Krafmaid cabinets installed a year and a half ago, and couldnt be happier!! They are beutifull and I constantly get compliments on them. They are well constructed, solid and durable. Kraftmaid had a large selections of wood, finishes and styles to choose from. The cabinets were delivered on time, undamaged with all needed hardware. The only thing i was supprised about is the pegs used to hold shelves in place seemed a bit cheap, which did not fit with the quality of everything else. Besides that, everything is wonderfull. I would recommend this company to anyone, including friends and family.

"The Final Touch to my Kitchen"
When starting the renovation to my kitchen I wanted to find a brand of cabinets that would suit my style. At first this task was not an easy one but soon I came across KraftMaid cabinets. With these cabinets you can determine what design suits your kitchen the best. The different styles and colors offered make these a great product for any kitchen fanatic. I have owned my KraftMaid cabinets for a little over a year now and I could not be more satisfied with them. They still look the same as the day they were installed and I have not had any problems with any broken parts or cracks from using them. The only negative comment I would have about KraftMaid cabinets is that I wish I could have more than one design of cabinets. This is not really a negative comment but more just a wish that I could have multiple kitchens with different cabinet designs. I would definitely recommend this product to any of my friends or any other people renovating their kitchen. The satisfaction you receive from this product is exceptional.

"Oak Cabinet Fronts Make Kitchen Look Like New"
Five years ago, it was time to replace the kitchen cabinets in my home. After getting several estimates for total cabinet replacement, my husband and I decided that we could not afford this so we looked for alternatives. From our research, we learned that we could replace the cabinet doors and drawer fronts for our existing cabinets and achieve a whole new look. After shopping around, we decided on KraftMaid brand cabinets in a golden oak color. We ordered the pieces we needed from a local home improvement store. My husband was able to remove the old cabinet doors and drawer fronts and install the new solid oak pieces. I selected new knobs for the doors and pulls for the drawers which he also installed. We are completely satisfied with the results of this do-it-yourself project with the high-quality KraftMaid oak pieces. Our kitchen has a completely new look for only a fraction of the cost for total cabinet replacement, and we will be able to purchase replacement pieces if needed. The cabinets have held up well and look as good today as when they were installed. I expect these cabinets to last for years. I would recommend KraftMaid cabinets to anyone who needs cabinet replacement on a tight budget.

"Brand New Kitchen Cabinets which Look Great"
Installed about a year ago, these cabinets were the first thing updated when my family and I began improving our house. The KraftMaid cabinets looked stunning and were a great first step. The red cabinets now look fantastic with the stainless steel appliances and have a window in the middle allowing you to see inside the cabinet, a feature that I love. Over a year after installation they still look great and there has not been a single problem with them. I would recommend these to anyone without thinking twice, as they both look and perform better than any other cabinets. I have absolutely no complaints about my KraftMaid cabinets and I still love them just as much as when I got them. There have been no problems and everyone says they are the best part of the house, and I agree. If anyone is looking for cabinets I would highly recommend KraftMaid

"A Good Cabinet for the Price"
My husband wanted to spend our entire budget for remodeling the kitchen on the cabinets alone! Luckily, the contractor recommended KraftMaid cabinets. These looked a lot like the more expensive cabinets that we had been considering, but came at about half the price. I'll start with the things I do like about the cabinets. Besides the price, they really are quite attractive. We chose maple door because the rest of our kitchen is maple. Let me tell you, it does not look like cheap maple. The cupboards are also roomy and laid out very well. We have had them for 2 years this coming winter and have not had any repairs during this time. There is only one thing that I don't like about the product, and that is the small inner rim found in the doors. I don't like this because dust and dirt seems to accumulate inside it and has proved very hard to clean out.

"KraftMaid Cabinets"
I ordered my KraftMaid kitchen cabinets 3 months ago, and have been very satisfied with the quality of the materials and its excellent value. I was able to browse their vast selection of cabinets through their online website, and place an order from the comfort of my home. The cabinets were then delivered to a local distributor in my area who came to my home and professionally installed them. So far, I have not had any problems with them. I will definitely recommend this brand to any of my friends doing a kitchen remodeling of their own.

"Our Kraftmaid Cabinets"
We bought our Kraftmaid cabinets (shaker style with a honey oak finish) in 2005, so we have owned them for 5 years. We purchased them from Home Depot, which was a very easy process. Our carpenters took the measurements and everything went very smoothly ordering them. We actually received two additional cabinets at no extra cost, so that was a big plus! We love the price, the quality of the workmanship (for the price) and the way they look. We also like that they look the same now (5 years later) as they did when they were first installed. The drawers open and close easily, the doors open and close easily. They are nice cabinets. The only thing I would say I dislike about them is the shaker style. This style makes it so that dust accumulates and you have to wipe it off…but that's my own fault for liking that style and has nothing to do with the cabinets per se. We have not had to have any repairs. We would definitely buy the same brand and product line again. We HAVE recommended them to friends.

"High ennd cherry cabinets for my kitchen rehab"
The final step of my home rehab was purchasing and installing kitchen cabinets. After a long search I ended up ordering a custom set of KraftMaid from Lowes. The cabinets were installed last week (October, 2010. I knew I wanted a warm cherry finish. The floors in my kitchen were Brazilian cherry, and the countertop is a sand colored granite, so a High end look was also a necessity. I really liked all the little options that were available with KraftMaid. The pullout shelves, base drawers for pots and pans instead of cabinets, and the dividers in the utensil drawers were very nice. They also had a great trim selection. The downside to these cabinets were few. The delivery took a week longer that what was originally quoted. When they were delivered, there were some parts missing. One Corner base had the wrong lazy susan, and one upper cabinet was missing hardware. Also the pull out shelves and lazy susan had no instructions for assembly. All of these issues were immediately taken care of by Lowes, so it was only a minor inconvenience. We installed these cabinets ourselves. I found them easily assembled and as simple to put up as any standard set. The measurement were very accurate, and everything fit as was intended. I would definitely purchase these cabinets again. I was very particular and am very happy with the product I ended up with.

"PLAIN AND SIMPLE"
Five years ago I had my kitchen remodeled and the contractor suggested the brand and the local company who sells them. I ordered a plain wood, with a light natural finish, and no knobs or other adornments. The day they were installed, I was not at home, but they looked fine to me. It wasn't until a while later that my cousin, an interior decorator with a large and very well-known firm in New York City, came to visit. She immediately said to me that the trim between the top of the cabinets and the ceiling was not the same finish as the rest of the cabinets! Stupid me; I had never noticed, but when she pointed it out, I did see that the strip of wood was definitely darker than the rest. I had a feeling that the installer knew when he was installing them but never said anything, hoping I wouldn't notice, which I obviously didn't. Annoyed as I was when I realized the situation, there was nothing I could do, as too much time had gone by. I realize the cabinets themselves were not the problem, but it was the fault of the company that ordered and installed them. The only problem I had with them is the hinges on one of the heaviest and largest door. It broke after a few years use and was easily and quickly repaired with a new hinge. However, after five years, I can also say that they are good in every other way. They are sturdy and, even after a lot of washing their surfaces, the finish is only just now beginning to wear a bit. I would order Kraftmaid again, but I would make sure that I looked at them very closely after installation.

"Crappy Cabinets From A Crappy Store"
I would like the review my KraftMaid cabinets. I have to say that they are the biggest piece of junk that I have ever bought. I had the cabinets for about 2 weeks before I took them back to Lowes for a refund. I bought the cabinets to replace a few old ones in my kitchen. Installing them was pretty easy, thou having to rip them out was a pain. After installing them, they started to bow after a while. I would say a week or so. They were bowing in the shelf part of the cabinets. I didn't put anything really heavy on them, just mostly dishes. I have never seen anything made so badly. After having a contractor friend come out and double check that I didn't mess up them somehow. I returned them for a refund and I will never use that company again. You could give me some KraftMaid cabinets and I would have more fun using them for firewood. Never, ever, ever get KraftMaid cabinets. They can send their junk back to china cause I told all my friends to stay away from them.

"Kraftmaid Cabinets"
We have purchased Kraftmaid cabinets for two of our houses over the past five years. We purchased them for our first house about five years ago, and for our second house, just nine months ago. We absolutely love the beauty and quality of the cabinets. We bought maple wood both times and they complement our countertop very well. We also love how they came with roll out shelves and a pull out shelves for the pantry. We also thought that they were the best deal for the price. The price was mid-range, but the quality has been superb. There is really nothing that we dislike about the cabinets. When we first ordered them, a few of them arrived damaged, but the company was very quick to send us a replacement. We also love the honey color of the cabinets. I would definitely buy the same brand again and would recommend them to my friends.

"Kraftmade are the cabinets for you!!"
Kraftmaid has a great selection of doors and cabinet styles. They offer numerous door styles and finishes, but the selection of custom sized cabinets is limited. If you are looking for a great value on nice cabinets, you cant go wrong with Marsh. They offer many "custom" options and the only drawback to buying their cabinets is that they are on the more expensive side for semi-custom cabinets. If you are considering these cabinets, you will end up with great quality cabinets. Marsh has been manufacturing cabinets for over 100 years and they make a very nice cabinet. This wont keep you from being able to design an amazing kitchen though. Their cabinets are KCMA cert. and come with a five year warranty, so you can be assured that the cabinets will last. Make sure to use the ACO hinges with them, they are smooth as butter!
