Tips for New Cabinets

[Tyler Frost]

I am currently building 3 spec houses. All 3/2 with about 1,400 sq ft. These are my first spec builds, previous experience in in flips. I have never had to replace the cabinets in any flips so this is my first experience installing new cabinets. I would like to put in a little nicer cabinet without the high expense of custom built cabinets. I would like to get some feedback on any positive and negative experiences. I am looking for white cabinets made of real wood, no MDF, nothing in a box from Lowe's or Home Depot. I am currently looking into Cabinets 2 Go, a national retailer. Their cabinets are real wood, but I am hesitant to put faith into a mass production company.

Here's what I've found regarding cabinets:

There are Chinese importers setting up shop all over California that seem to be importing good quality cabinets made of real wood but are limited to a few specific styles. You could see if there are similar shops in your area as well. None I've found carry flat slab cabinets which is the style I like so I've never purchased from them.

There are companies that just do doors that go on IKEA base frames:

and I've actually found pretty competitive pricing from custom cabinet shops in my area when comparing to the higher end IKEA lines as well so you might as well make some calls.
