Cabinets made of fiberboard or particleboard with laminate or veneer finishes offer a tempting price tag, but really do more to devalue your new kitchen remodel than just about any other feature. The proper finish enhances the entire look of your kitchen, so spending time determining which cabinets are right for you is time well spent.
Choosing the right wood is critical because your new cabinets will be enjoyed for decades. Alder is hardwood well suited for creating a rich, deep finish. Additionally, hardwood construction is less likely to bend or warp.
When considering the addition of new cabinets to your kitchen it is critical to work with a company experienced in all phases of the remodeling process. Since your new cabinets will be the most noticeable and prominent feature of your kitchen, choosing the right wood and finish are key to creating the look you want.

3) Composites
Additional features to consider:
