All,

Looking to replace cabinets in a rental unit, need something durable, long lasting, modern.  Choices are:

- H Cabinet - $2k for 10 cabinets, white shaker

- Rainbow - $2800 10 cabinets, white shaker

-Cabinets 2go - $5k 10 cabinets, white shaker

Any recommendations on quality and lastability...go with white or another color.

@Alex U.

The main wear items on cabinets I'm my mind would be:

Door construction since the doors will get slammed shut. Soft close hinges would help.

Paint quality since you will want something cleanable and you don't want the paint to chip.

Interior durability. I find tenants seem to tolerate messy cabinets and leaks under the sink. Wet cabinet shelves don't last long and if they are unlined MDF they will be ruined quickly. If you get MDF shelves make sure to use cabinet liner to protect your investment.

In all these things I'm preaching to myself. 😉
