This is a very informative video!!! I just bought very expensive Thomasville cabinets at Home Depot for my laundry room. They are made with only half inch plywood. My next cabinets for my kitchen will be from Wellborn cabinets. Thank you for opening my eyes!!!😊
Informative videos...although there is no discussion of carcass construction or the door panel itself. One wonders if parts of the cabinet that commonly use plywood or particleboard were purposely edited out. BTW...this is what American commodity residential furniture manufacturing looks like. It is a manufacturing sector that was heavily hit when China entered the WTO and corporate shareholders along with price conscious consumers pushed much manufacturing overseas. Most commodity kitchen cabinets are purchased be large home building corporations. Think about that next time you go cabinet shopping at your local home center.
I remodeled my kitchen last year and I wish I would have asked more questions about these cabinets. I am so disappointed. I was expecting the cabinets to go to the ceiling like the contractor described, but the cabinets are about 10 inches below the ceiling with a strip of matching wood and crown molding to fill in the space. The strips of wood are joined by putty that is supposed to camouflage the seams, but unfortunately, the installer was sloppy with the putty and rubbed it all over creating a dull finish. I reached out to Welborn and was told it was up to the contractor to fix it. I was not at all happy with the contractor so the last thing I wanted was to have them in my home again. Another problem with the cabinets are the drawers are oddly shallow. You wouldn't know it by looking at the drawer face because the face is so much larger than the drawer. Poorly designed cabinets. The finish colors were nice, but they need to work on design.

Is Karman Cabinetry owned by Wellborn?
Are the joints glued at all?
Yes they're glued, with a basic wood glue.
