- I looked in retail stores and online.. the best place I have found to buy kitchen cabinets is an RTA cabinet Site. The one I found with the best prices is: www.rtacabinetstore.com

- To answer that question-- Large stores like Home Depot have very few cabinets in stock (it takes up a lot of space) so they encourage you to "special order" their cabints and then the store will add-on a huge mark up in price. Buying online cuts out the middle man, try rtacabinetstore.com

- I compared prices and the RTA cabinets were on average $26.00 less than Home Depot. PLUS they are made of real wood, home depot is using particle board.

- These prices are very low and the quality is better. I noticed that there is no particle board. Its solid fronts and paneled sides. Very nice.

- Another good point to make. If you use a combination of 30" and 42" cabinets you can create a custom look with the staggered sized cabinets (using 42" cabinets in the corner cabinet to create different shadow lines). The crown molding really capped it off

- You can also save a lot of money on your countertops if you use granite tiles instead of a solid granite top.

- Do you know of anyone that makes modifications for RTA cabinets, since they only carry standard options... I am looking for things like pullout baskets, trash cans, appliance garages, etc..

- Home Depot used to carry pre-assembled cabinets, but I see where a lot of their stores are no longer selling them. Anybody know why? What is the difference between RTA Kitchen Cabinets and the Pre-Assembled Cabinets that they sell or used to sell?

- I was skeptical about the quality of knockdown cabinets, or ready-to-assemble cabinets because I was burned before by the Ikea version of RTA furniture. I was pleasantly surprised when I ordered a sample cabinet.... easy to assemble, solid construction... I may be converting

- All of the (RTA) Ready-To-Assemble Cabinets come with assembly instructions and it really is pretty simple (you can see a sample assembly sheet if you go to www.rtacabinetstore.com/installation.php). If you get to a point where you need assistance, there is a contact number for help.

If you go to www.rtacabinetstore.com/resources.php you will find links to a couple of documents that can help you layout and design your own kitchen. I also have a lens on kitchen design that might help. That should be enough info to design your own kitchen.

- I am curious about the RTA Cabinets for my a rental property that I am remodeling, but I have never tried to design the layout for a kitchen before... any suggestions on how to do it without hiring a designer or architect?

- Ready to Assemble Cabinets are the way to go. They are made of real wood versus the cheap particle board, and they are a better price than anything I have found.

- The cabinets are real wood. I looked at other stores cabinets and they are made of particle board or cardboard. Only the fronts were real.
I am very impressed with the quality of this product!

- At first I was skeptical about the quality of RTA's products as well as their claim on how easy they are to install. Now that I have received and installed the euro-vanity I can attest to it's high quality and ease of installation. I highly recommend these products to all weekend warriors!!!
