Better Kitchens – Wood-Mode Cabinets

We recently used Better Kitchens to replace a 12 year old kitchen that didn’t provide enough storage and was just poorly designed.
Our designer, Judy, worked closely with my wife to come up with a functional and attractive layout and cabinet design. We went with their Wood Mode — Brookhaven cabinets in white with some darker brown accent touches, and we couldn’t be happier.
The cabinets were delivered when promised and everything arrived in perfect condition. Our contractor worked quite well with Better Kitchens and we managed to have a fully functional kitchen one month after demolition of our old kitchen.
We feel that we got great value for custom designed cabinets, backed by a terrific warranty.
We would highly recommend Better Kitchens.

We had our kitchen redone by Better Kitchens last March and it was a great experience. We don’t have a huge, fancy house, just an average Chicago bungalow but our designer Judy managed to use every inch of our kitchen in ways we never even thought of. I had a lot of ideas as to what I wanted but she was able to improve on them and give me a prettier kitchen than I even imagined.
The quality of the cabinets is great. They are so solid and beautiful. My old cabinets were cheaper quality and started falling apart from the insides. These are obviously much better made. Judy was also able to keep me on budget. When I started choosing items outside of my budget she was able to find alternatives that were just as nice but more affordable to me. Her contractor Jim and his men totally gutted my kitchen and redid everything: electric, drywall, floors, cabinets, painting, tiling, the works in about 3 weeks which I thought was pretty amazing. The work was high quality! I have had a lot of work done on my house in the past 20 years and this was the most professional group I have ever seen. They were not satisfied unless it was perfect. I’m just really impressed.
I have to say yes, you probably could find slightly cheaper cabinets at Ikea or someplace like that but I honestly do think you get what you pay for. I also don’t think you would get near the same help as you would from Better Kitchens.
PS — I think they have a photo of my kitchen and you should ask to see it because it is pretty gorgeous if I do say so myself! (I have gray cabinets — yes gray!)
