While it is the style and finish that you see, it is the quality of the cabinet boxes, construction of the doors and drawers, the quality of the hardware and full wood versus veneer doors that makes the difference in how well the cabinets will hold up. American Woodmark gets 3 stars on "kitchencabinetreviews.com." American Value by Bridgewood are not rated. You get what you pay for, generally.

I tend to not take kitchencabinetreviews.com too seriously because there are a lot of people on there complaining about the company they bought the cabinets through rather than the cabinets themselves. I also get the feeling that the few people who have had issues with their cabinets are more likely to post a review compared with the people who had a good experience. I was hoping to get some feedback from someone here who has purchased these cabinets or that may have experience selling/installing either one of these or both. Thanks!
