You will have to figure out your needs and make sure, if you do have to return something, that is hasn’t been touched (meaning installed). They are not quite as easy to work with as the other larger stores, but the products offered are exceptional in certainly most, but not all, cases.

Home Depot offers an In-Stock product as well, but it comes KD (knocked down) so I avoid it altogether. If you are super handy and plan on doing it yourself, go for it since the price point is a fair amount less than all the other options. However, t

Cabinets can make or break a kitchen. Countless hours of research, many trips to the store, phone calls and appointments with the professionals, have all yielded valuable information that could possibly save you hours, even weeks or months of research. I know for the busy real estate investor, time is money, so consider this my gift to you.

Unless you have a strange configuration that would require going with custom cabinets, I would strongly suggest using only in-stock cabinets. Say you order a non-stocked, 4-6 week lead time cabinet, and after it arrives you discover that either you have measured wrong or they shipped the incorrect item. Either way, you will have to wait for the replacement to come in. Not only will this eat heavily into your timeline, but you can bet that if the error was your fault, the vendor may take the full 4-6 weeks to process and reorder.

The delays only help to make the problems snowball because the completion of the other items (namely the counter-tops), are dependent first on the completion of the cabinets. You cannot even measure for countertops until the cabinets are in and placed. If you will be using tile, you can figure supplies mathematically, but in the case of solid surface tops like Corion, granite, quartz and the like you must have your cabinets placed and set before they will even measure, much less start the order. These are the kinds of problems you don’t want to experience. So, I have found that using only In-Stock products helps to eliminate the problem.

Another great reason to go with stocked product is that many times the “goof ups” (incorrectly ordered cabinets) can be returned for full value and another picked up in its place, regardless of whose fault it was. This amounts to a huge savings if you compare “In-Stock goofs” only cost you time whereas special order goofs can cost you big money. Not only will you need to pay for replacement costs, but freight also. Sometimes, In-Stock can be an even exchange or even get a full refund if the difference is in your favor.

Lowe’s Companies, Inc. has a nice maple, raised panel cabinet on the shelf and comes already assembled─the best value in my opinion. The cabinets are not the quality of the Contractor’s Warehouse cabinets mentioned in Part II of this article, but you can’t beat the price and the fact that they are in stock is a must.

Contractor’s Warehouse on the other hand, is one of the best in stock resources for a better quality cabinet, and the increased options of things like spice racks and decorative details is a big plus. They even stock the crown molding (if you are using it), which I would highly suggest in giving a finished look to your kitchen project. They offer a beautiful maple, white and an awesome higher end cherry wood product straight off the shelf. This is more of a do it yourself place so don’t count on the service you might get at some of the big box stores.

One thing that inherently seems to happen with the KD products is getting pieces where the holes don’t line up.
