if you know about cabinets please help

[Yerry Balenzuela]

Hey, so I have a rehab home and I cant decide on the cabinets. We are going for the contemporary look throughout the house but everyone tells me that a 300000$+ home should never have mdf in the kitchen. What is confusing me is that everywhere I look I see million dollar homes with seem less cabinets and I just don't get it.  Do upscale homes use some sort of upgraded wood or other material for modern cabinets? is it steel?

Where can I buy modern cabinetry at affordable prices that can be put in a home I plan to sell in the 300000$ range. also what other options are out there besides mdf and wood ?

@Yerry Balenzuela - while cabinet doors may be made from solid wood, seldom are the cabinet boxes though... they are usually a veneer over particle board, MDF or plywood.  Pricing generally increases respectively.  If you're going to be using painted cabinetry, then MDF is an excellent choice, even in upper price point homes.
