    The left one IMO wouldbe harder to clean so if I have to choose the one on the right. For either if they will be apinted then make sure the doors and drawer fronts are MDF not wood since wook moves and will show what look like cracks where pieces meet. I like a slab door but I also like a contemporary kitchen style. IMO a kitchen needs to be functional and easy to clean both should be considered when doing a kitchen

    Patricia- u making good points :) thanks. Ya I mostly see right one online in most kitchens and liked it. But when I saw in store somehow left one looked pretty:)

    I like the bevel one because it is not the ubiquitous Shaker. You will have to clean either one and the bevel is nice and wide so I am not sure there will be much difference in cleaning.

    I like number 1 in the same ways that palimpsest talks about.

    Lol I am confused again. I see the easy one cleaning with straight wide single line but I also find bevel more softer looking . am i wrong !

    Frankly I don’t think it’s more than a few minutes overall extra cleaning, if that. I’d go with what you are more drawn to. I’d much rather spend a minute longer cleaning something I really love than less time on something that’s meh to me.

    First, I didn't vote in your poll...either 1 or 2 would contribute to a lovely kitchen. Second, though, I love the warmth of the wood cabinets that the samples are leaning against. Are you planning to replace those with new white cabinets? To me, next to the wood cabinets, the white ones look cheap, ubiquitous, and unimpressive...obviously, this is just my opinion. I would replace the counters and the backsplash, and keep the satiny, modern-looking wood cabinets. Of course, if that is NOT your kitchen, then my point is moot.

    Agree that the wood cabinets are nicer than the white, and I vote to keep them.

    I never liked shaker(#1) style doors, but recessed(#2) one. Your door is too much recessed.

    I like # 2. It is visually less busy which I prefer.

    Number 1 or number 2 could work in a kitchen, however it depends on what other elements you will be adding. If you want a less busy cabinet and easier to clean, number 2 would work best. However, number 1 is very appealing as well.

    Is it number 1 in the picture @amy as I am also looking to have straight molding

    I think it depends on the style in the rest of the house, and the house itself.

    I think the simple lines, cabinet on the right, is much more contemporary! You could also do a very thin rail if you want to make your cabinets even more modern looking. Best of luck!

    1 has more appeal to me. It has more depth and character.
