Answer.

Here are some of the best places to purchase quality kitchens at reasonable prices:

• Home improvement stores – Stores like Home Depot and Lowe’s have a wide selection of in-stock and custom order kitchen cabinets and accessories at competitive prices. They frequently run sales and specials too. Installation can be arranged through independent tradespeople.
• Howdens or Wren – Known for contemporary and modern style kitchens at budget-friendly prices. Howdens or Wren kitchen components come ready for self-assembly or you can pay extra for Howdens or Wren recommended professional installation. The quality is decent for the low prices.
• Cabinet distributors – Check cabinet distributors or outlets in your area. They offer surplus or discontinued stock from major brands at a fraction of the normal cost. The options are more limited but you can get solid wood cabinets at huge discounts. Installation is separate.
• Kitchen resellers – Stores like Kitchen Cabinets to Go or DirectBuy Kitchens resell kitchens purchased from manufacturers at savings of 30-50% off retail pricing. Good for modern, quality kitchens for less. You arrange your own installer.
• Cabinet manufacturers – Some cabinet brands like Kraftmaid have factory direct authorized dealers where you can customize and order kitchens directly from their manufacturing facility. This cuts out retailer markups. Installation is separate.

I’d recommend getting quotes from 2-3 kitchen resellers and cabinet distributors, along with checking sales at home stores. Compare quality, cost with installation, and service offered to find the best overall value for your particular budget and style needs.
