Painting Cabinets White AGAIN?

Question

So we are planning on painting the cabinets on current rehab. When we paint, we always paint white. Does anyone do anything other than white? We try not to get too crazy with colors so it appeals to the bulk of buyers.

Just curious what everyone else does?

Gray turns out nice too, but it depends on the rest of the house.  Generally white is the highest appeal.  Sometimes you can get away with gray on the bottom and white on top.

White is what I have been using in the suburbs, gives a clean, open feel to any kitchen. In my in town properties I am doing white uppers and light to medium grey lowers/island or all light grey. That seems to be new trend in what I see in sold renovations in town.

Maybe try some lighter shades of grey if you want something other than white, but that's about as far as I would go.

Yup!  Thats what I thought!  Stick with white.  I agree its a clean crisp look.

Stick with the white.  It's neutral and appeals to most buyers.

White is so clean and crisp....especially if combined with light gray walls.  Try Glidden's universal Gray and Drifting snow for trim.  Perfection!

@Dave Charron I either Paint white because I like the farmhouse look it gives or I just do a nice stain on them to make the wood pop out more.
