Does anyone know if they make kitchen cabinets without using particleboard?
I make my own so, yes!! Willow oak cabinets in the kitchen and master bath. Cedar in the first floor bathroom and some kind of fruit tree for the kids bathroom. Won't use that again, it was hard to work with. Did oak and barnwood cabinets in my horse trailer. As soon as it cools up some I'm going to make some cedar cabinets for an outdoor kitchen on the deck.

We shopped around and figured out what we had was much better than what we could buy. Ours were solid birch. It took a while but we refinished them and were glad for it.
With the money saved we had SoMD Kitchen and Bath come in for the counter top (quartz), sink (soapstone) and faucet...BIG MISTAKE!! I don't even want to rehash it all cause it's been a good day. Just from our experience, I'll tell you to stay far away from them.
Same here. Current kitchen is all oak. My next one will be cherry, when I have the time to start woodworking again.I make my own so, yes!! Willow oak cabinets in the kitchen and master bath.

You will go through many saw blades and router bits, and lots of sandpaper. Very hard wood.I am going to attempt Hickory when the time comes, hear it is hard to work with.
There are many places that make nice ones. Not sure you are going to find at Lowes though. I think Deans is now doing that?
