Kraftmaid Kitchen Cabinets
If they weren't a household word before "Extreme Makeover: Home Edition," they certainly are now, as millions of TV viewers see their cabinets incorporated into each weekly segment of architectural transformation. But KraftMaid, now a part of international megacorp Masco Corporation (which also includes such companies as Milgard, Mill's Pride, Delta Faucet, and more), is the world's leading manufacturer of built-to-order cabinetry.
Founded in 1969 in rural Ohio, KraftMaid pioneered the concept of "semi-custom" cabinetry, i.e. building cabinets to order for each customer, but achieving significant economy by using stock sizes. Customers can choose among a variety of styles and features; KraftMaid offers door and drawer fronts in square, arch and slab styles, in birch, oak, maple, hickory and cherry wood. There are many varnish and glaze options, plus an assortment of laminate and melamine finishes. Additionally, many decorative enhancements including glass inserts, moldings and hardware are available to create the perfect look.
While historically KraftMaid's styles have been on the traditional end of the spectrum, the company recently introduced the Venicia line, which Consumer Digest called "the most impressive frameless cabinet by a U.S. manufacturer." If you're going for that sleek Euro look, Venicia might be something to consider - available in all of KraftMaid's door finishes, it also offers interior options of traditional wood or modern metal-coated surfaces.
KraftMaid cabinets are made to order in the U.S. They are featured in a wide variety of showrooms and available from many vendors.
