need help on cabinet color - DuraSupreme

9 years ago

Hi all. Oh my...the agonizing between different shades of white on kitchen cabinets. We are going with Dura cabinets and I am trying to decide between "Classic White" and "White". Problem is: The Classic White seems a little too dark, but the White is as white as "pure white" in sherwin Williams color!

I don't want it too look cold, but I want it to be fresh too. Does anyone have any experience in these cabinets to lend advice? I would really, really appreciate it. Pulling my hair out here in Arizona.

p.s...My kitchen faces West, so it will get a fair amount of sunshine from about 2:00pm on... if that makes a difference.

Thanks!

As a former resident of The Valley of the Sun please be aware that those white cabinets will yellow rather quickly from the UV rays, esp. when facing west.

gosh, I HAVE thought of that, but am up in the mountains (northern AZ), so hoping it won't be as bad. Will do what I can as far as window coverings. I really want a white kitchen:)

I decided on White, not classic white. I want the clean, fresh, white. I was afraid the classic white would look too yellow. When I compared the sample to my white windows, it gave off a yellow cast that I did not want. Good luck!!
