ROHNERT PARK — Host, Sarah Rutan: When comparing wood cabinets, it can be hard to spot subtle differences in quality. Today we’re in Rohnert Park with Diamond Certified Expert Contributor Stan Wahl of Cabinets 101 to learn more.
Diamond Certified Expert Contributor, Stan Wahl: Okay, I’d like to take a few minutes to talk about the difference in quality of a cabinet. With these two white, craftsman style cabinets, they look exactly the same. They present exactly the same. There is a difference of about twenty percent over the one manufacturer and the second. Both of them have soft-closed hinges, which allows the door to close smoothly, quietly. But once you start looking at the cabinet you’ll see the difference between the quality.
This one – the less expensive cabinet – the door is constructed of solid wood. It has a plywood center, which when you knock on it has more of a hollow sound to it. The cabinet itself has one, it comes with one shelf. The shelves are half-inch plywood. The bodies of both cabinets are plywood, but the interior of this is a vinyl coating, a melamine coating, that looks like wood.
The other cabinet has the same look to it. The door itself has got a solid wood panel, which when you tap on it sounds more heavy. It comes with two shelves and the interior of the cabinet is painted white. So, completely white cabinet, better sounding door, versus one shelf, vinyl interior, and a plywood panel.
