There is a lot of buzz going on about Chinese cabinets. Some of it is really great stuff, and for the most part you can get ALL WOOD cabinets with a nice glaze finish for an excellent price, but there definitely needs to be a HUGE “BUYER BEWARE” sticker on them!

A few points to consider:

If you are buying cabinets from someone, either on the internet or from a local shop and they are offering you ALL WOOD cabinets at a ridiculously great deal, most likely there are Chinese cabinets..even if they say they are not

Warranties on these cabinets should be taken with a grain of salt… Little known to the consumer, say you scratch a door 3 months after your beautiful new kitchen is installed, with most domestic manufactures you can call up your cabinet supplier and order just the replacement door you need. With most Chinese suppliers you have to reorder THE ENTIRE CABINET!! Make sure you ask your supplier about this and if they say you can actually get the part you need without ordering THE ENTIRE CABINET be sure to get that fact in writing!

Another warranty item to consider is that with all the regulatory issues and other nonsense going on with Chinese wood, many of the manufactures are looking to move their operations to other countries, this presents two big warranty problems #1 there is a high probability that the manufacture will not be around in a year or two when you need the replacement part, and #2 changing wood and manufacturing plants will cause consistency issues with the finish, so your Mocha Java Glaze might look more like a Mochafrapuchino Java Glaze when the replacement part comes in!
