We redid our kitchen back in 2017 with Scherrs and still get compliments on our beautiful kitchen. We used a mix of IKEA insides, Scherrs fronts and Scherrs RTA cabinets.
We were originally thinking about doing all IKEA for budget reasons, but wanted something a bit nicer. Due to a somewhat tight space and wanting to keep the original doors, windows and casings on our 1920s Craftsman home, we also needed some upper cabinets in specific dimensions that IKEA just does not make. Lastly, we wanted to get our microwave off the counter without purchasing a huge built-in microwave. Scherrs to the rescue with creating a custom upper corner cabinet with a microwave shelf! Being able to order custom cabinets for just one portion of our kitchen, matching custom fronts, and ikea boxes for the rest helped us save $$$ while still getting solid, well-made cabinets that went well with our house.
The menu of options for wood (White oak? Red oak? Rift sawn? Quarter sawn?) also went above and beyond what similar IKEA-custom-front makers offered. We ended up choosing wood for the lower cabinets that coordinates with the original oak floors, which makes me feel confident that the cabinets will age well.
Highly recommend! read more
