Review Detail

I install Kemper cabinets every day. I also used to own a custom cabinet shop, so I know cabinets. These cabinets are no different than any other box cabinet. Cheap, thin particle board fake grain interiors and end panels. Boxes hot glued and stapled together (most of which are out of square). Bowed faceframes (hot glued and stapled every inch from behind) which rarely line up perfectly with an ajoining cabinet. Pairs of doors as much as an 1/8" different in hieght and gaps as much as 1/4" between. I have to shim most doors because the cheap hinges don't adjust enough. The finish is usually good except not all parts match. The drawers are nice. The biggest problem is when designers try to make them look custom. I assure you, there is NOTHING custom about these box cabinets. Mediocre cabinets screwed together with fillers added here and there to get a specified length is laughable to a custom cabinet maker. The really sad thing is that people are paying 2 or 3 times what these cabinets are worth.
