Kitchen cabinets: Diamond or Schuler?

14 years ago

We are planning to remodel our 40 yr old kitchen with new cabintets, counter tops, etc. I am considering either Diamond (Prelude or Reflections) and Schuler. The Lowe's KD, who seems very knowledgeable, claims there is not a notable quality difference between the 3 lines, although there is definitely a price difference between Prelude and other two. I would also consider Kraftmaid but there seems to be a fair amount of negative reviews of them in my online searching. I would appreciate others insight. Thanks.

We have Schuler and the quality is way beyond what we expected. Also everything arrived with no mistakes. That could be because the KD designer at Lowes was terrific. Several of our friends thought that we had hired a brilliant cabinet maker and finisher.

We have Diamond semi-custom cabs from a kitchen store so they are not either line they carry at Lowes. I adore them, the quality is there and customer service is awesome. One of our cabs arrived damaged so they added soft close hinges on the Interior drawers that did not have them to make up for the delay. Very classy...
