I just googled it---I am not familiar with any of the lines of cabinets that they carry--
Interestingly,there is a store not far from me---I will check them out--thanks--Mike--
These cabinets are all wood --face framed---'knocked down" boxes -made in China.
The doors were surprisingly nice--solid wood--Cherry,hickory and paint --
Because they are assemble it your self the drawers are not dovetailed----
The boxes themselves looked quite stout--plywood sides and backs--rabbited grooves and some kind of quick lock to hold it together.
Very limited sizes--limited accessories----The trims on the display were pieced--so I am guessing that they only come in short lengths ---
All in all---looks good----nice boxes---fair drawers---I don't know what to compare them to price wise-----They are much better than Lowes cheap off the shelf boxes---Much much better than any particle board knock down--
They look like a very easy assembly---Good design overall---The plywood boxes should have enough strength to hold up granite---Best to call them on that.
Microwave? No problem.
I would have liked to use these on a couple of low budget kitchens I did last year--These cabinets look like they will hold up well---much better than the photo finished particle board stuff that is in a similar price category.
Would I use them in my own home? Nope--I'm a cabinet maker---I'd be ribbed to death.
Would I suggest these to a customer on a limited budget---Yes,absolutely.
The doors and face frames are nice---They also had a lot of vanities and tops.
You've raised some extremely valid points and I appreciate your opinion. I, to, am sick and tired of all the garbage we import from overseas while we lose precious jobs here. My wife and I are planning on putting our house on the (sucky) real estate market this Spring. Our kitchen is clean and functionally, but tired, worn and dated. It hasn't been remodeled since 1978. We thought Cabinets To Go would save us a pretty penny but now I am concerned about the quality, as well. Time for more research.
Unfortunately I can't yet give you a review of the quality of the cabinets, because I can't get mine that I have already paid for, delivered.
This may only be a local issue, and may only be one employee, or it may be company wide, I have no way of knowing. I can tell you that the salesman I've been dealing with never and I mean NEVER calls or emails, even when I ask a direct question, or he has told me that he would be calling/emailing.
I can tell you that I have called the national "customer service" number twice, and it has always gone to voice mail, which have never been answered.
I suspect that the reason this person never calls back is because one of the cabinets we want was not in stock anywhere locally, and had to come from California. So I can only assume that since it was always going to be bad news, this individual has always chosen to completely ignore me.
I can accept bad news when it can't be helped and everyone is trying, but I can not live with being ignored as a customer. I would never deal with this company again, ever. My main fear is that if they ignore me now, what if I have problems? I will post back here with the results, including a review of the cabinets, if I ever get them.
Good to hear----if the service is dismal we need to know----I still haven't used them--but I did suggest the company to someone last week--for an apartment fix up--
I'll be talking to her today and warn her---Mike---
The local Los Angeles showroom is about a 20 minute drive down the freeway from my home. The warehouse is less than an hours drive east of me. I'm unaware of the location(s) of their other warehouses, but it's hard to believe that they rely only on the one in SoCal to service the rest of the U.S.
We got one of the RTA (Ready To Assemble) for our bath vanity, and love it. It has held up really good. Would buy one again if we had to do another bath. Kitchen though we are looking for something else, due to the style that the wife wants in there.
"I heard about this company, are they any good? Has anyone ever used this product?"
Threads like these by first time posters are almost ALWAYS spammers trying to self-promote.
2 threads about the same company? Sure reeks of spam to me!
I sincerely hope if it isn't spam the company learns from the bad reviews and complaints they're getting here!
Spamming THIS forum does not always get the attention the spammers might hope for. :wink:
When I get home tonight, I'll look in to this further and we'll decide if it's spam or not and whether or not to ban the posters....
We're not stupid, so please don't think your idea (sneaky spam) is in any way, shape or form a new one.....
Personally, when I get new kitchen cabinets, I plan on hiring a local cabinet maker (like oh'mike) who knows what the **** they're doing and that uses quality materials, no particle board, cardboard crap. Solid wood and plywood, period. Getting REAL sick of Chinese garbage taking over our lives.
BUY USA!!! The job you save may be your own!!!
fresh cut oak.... mmmmmmmmmMMMMMMmmmmmm walnut too.... cherry's nice too.... maple burns real nice in our woodstove.... not a big fan of it for my projects though.
Customer assembled the cabinets and installed---he said the assembly took four hours---and was very simple. Big kitchen and three vanities--
Looked very good to me----
The only difficulty was with the layout---the clerk miss read the numbers on the drawing ---and made one run 4" short---so double and triple check the drawings and cabinet sizes.
I would use these cabinets in a situation where budget will not allow the use of preassembled cabinets.
You need to asses the quality . Get a sample door and see what you think--
Most kitchens that I work on are rather nice----but there are times when expensive high end cabinets are not appropriate---I thought these looked very nice for the price ----
I ordered a dozen cabinets and a pantry from cabinets to go. I went thru the store in my area.those guys did a great job helping us. We were so happy and excited.they come flat in boxes which I was happy to put the cabinet together, they go together easyilly. after assembling them I noticed several flaws in the faces of the cabinet, problems with the drawer and door fronts.this is where it goes down hill.still to this day, which is 6 Weeks later i'm still waiting on the replacements. After emailing the claims department and waiting Weeks for a reply,I had to call.getting no where, still waiting. Poor customer service and communications. I would not suggest buying anything

Once again, I hope the spammers learn from this. You don't always get the results you think you'll get when you spam HERE! :laughing: You LOSE customers when they see all the complaints!
