How do I not know this woman but trust her completely?!?!

@laskutapa185 4 года назад

because she is real deal. no artificial make ups, no expensive dresses to convince audience

@OvisAriesFarm 4 года назад

I love her too and trust her implicitly, but see my comment above detailing my cabinets.com experience. What a disaster.

@pandaballsocial9828 4 года назад

To legit to quit.

@caliv0608 5 лет назад

She should totally do audiobooks in her spare time. Very soothing, non-demeaning, and approachable in her way of speaking. I always thought of plywood as being blah, but I see that it can be very useful in some applications. Thanks!

@goldworldproduction3400 5 лет назад

The knowledge you give is truly mind blowing...it’s simple but hold lots of detail. Please make videos Forever!!!!

@seejanedrill 5 лет назад

That is very nice of you to say

@AlexGraettinger 5 лет назад

Your videos are just perfection. I've seen a lot of videos that show the steps of a remodel, but nothing with this level of detail on how to pick good cabinet materials. Thank you!

@Truenorth747 6 лет назад

I agree with everything, I would also add , as an experienced homeowner, pay a little bit more for full height cabinets that are flushed with the ceiling ,wherever possible. Nothing looks good on top of them anyway, and cleaning greasy dust is a huge pain. Not to mention an injury hazard if you have to climb cabinets and ladders.

@jorrba3934 6 лет назад

TrueNorth747 That's so true. It would be a waste of space.

@seejanedrill 6 лет назад

TrueNorth747 thanks for sharing your perspective

@hardrock1826 5 лет назад

TrueNorth747 You are right about those full height cupboards. I am redoing my kitchen and would love to get them. But my kitchen has a bulkhead all the way around that houses water lines and a drain pipe from an upstairs bathroom. It would represent a major job rerouting this. It all comes around and goes down to the basement in the wall on the one side of the kitchen. I thought of eliminating that wall and taking that other room to expand the kitchen. But that wall has the water lines, drain, some electrical, the thermostat and the cold air return that also goes upstairs. It all spells nightmare to me. So i'm stuck with the regular sized cupboards.

@GoofyFlan 5 лет назад

Thank You! I'm about to take on the task of remodeling my kitchen and this helps.

@drakeorion94 5 лет назад

You should have something on the top of the cabinets. I haven't seen a square house yet. The trim at the top is to hid gaps at the top of the cabinets.

@flygirl2172 5 лет назад

I love you Leah ! You deserve your own TVs show

@cow.44 2 года назад

Leah, You are the best! You explained the critical cabinet selection points so simply. You explained the "terms" I needed to grasp so well. Now I have the confidence to tell our new construction manager what we must have in our cabinets. Thank you.

@lukei6255 5 лет назад

Clear, concise and visually well supported. Well done lady! Thank you.

@seejanedrill 5 лет назад

you're very welcome!

@eleanore7485 5 лет назад

Once again Leah saves the day! I am starting to consider a complete Kitchen remodel and the basics she covers give me a baseline to begin. YOU are wonderful.

@ramanichols9759 4 года назад

Leah, there is nothing lazy about you! I have learned so much from your videos. Thank you for posting concise, easy to understand instructions and information for those of us who are not knowledgeable about the subjects you address.

@r2solutions635 5 лет назад

I am a landlord in DC with a few small buildings, several units. I’ve come to love carpentry. I started doing my own small fixes last year and really enjoy carpentry. This video is really informative as I have to replace a few cabinets...I appreciate the craftsmanship that goes into building wooden structures. Thank you!

@vilmabock478 Год назад

Great! 💯 Love to see others prosper! 🎊 Prosper and be in good health, even as your soul prospers. 🌟The BEST for your business. 🤗

@noahturner1508 4 года назад

I saw your video about chisels a few years ago and have been trying to find you since. So glad I finally found you. I love how you get straight to the point and you describe everything so people who aren’t woodworkers can still understand

@denises4093 3 года назад

Thank you Leah! This is the best news I heard all day. I am in the process of remodeling my kitchen. I had so many questions about what to look for when purchasing good quality cabinets and you answered all of my questions. I greatly appreciate that information.

@tyflesh 4 года назад

this is a great video! I have been doing home repairs most of my life but never got deep into the different types of cabinetry and your videos really set the barriers to what type of cabinets to use in our home improvement projects thanks so much...

@K2scuba 4 года назад

Leah, I've spent hours & days trying to figure out which cabinets to purchase.It's been SO confusing. In one video, you help it all make sense. Thank you!!!! 🦋

@denisemartin3603 2 года назад

So who did you go with?

@OvisAriesFarm 4 года назад

I bought $10,000 new “top of the line” kitchen cabinets from cabinets.com based on this review, and was absolutely THUNDERSTRUCK when they arrived. They were extremely poorly packed so many of the corners were smashed in; the boxes were STAPLED TO THE CABINETS; and I found exactly ONE SINGLE nail in the ENTIRE KITCHEN collection. Everything else was put together with STAPLES (and not big ones either - little, dinky staples). I ordered all their top of the line products, including all hardware. Maybe half of the soft-close hardware actually worked, the rail brackets and other essential hardware were made of PLASTIC instead of metal, none of the panels or doors were square, and when my builder screwed them into the wall, the rest of the cabinet pulled away. There was no evidence of glue along any join, and almost all the cabinets just popped apart. Furthermore, all the shelves were shipped INSTALLED with no protection and therefore banged about, which is terrible practice, and the shelves were a very flimsy ¼” plywood which bowed under the slightest weight. My builder says in his 30 years in the trade he has NEVER seen such a disgraceful and shoddy disaster (he actually said “sh** show”). We’ve been trying to call them for two days and nobody will return our calls. I have no idea what I’m going to do now, because I don’t have time to order from another manufacturer before my builder has to move on to another job. I’m so depressed over this I don’t even know where to begin. Be warned!! Cabinets.com is NOT a professional quality cabinet supplier and you will NOT get what you paid for!

@micaonyx5301 Месяц назад

I know you posted this over four years ago, but I hope you see this. I was wondering if your problems were resolved and if so how. I just ordered over 10K worth of their "top of the line" cabinets may 2024 and now I'm really scared based on your post. I really hope things have improved in the last four years 😞

@OvisAriesFarm Месяц назад

@@micaonyx5301 it’s too late for me, but I can only hope you have better results than I did. I didn’t have any choice but to go ahead with my install, for all the reasons I stated. It was the Covid years, and I paid a fortune for crappy workmanship and product. I never did hear back from them nor did I receive any compensation from them. I wish you the very best, but I will NEVER order from them again!

@GarlandLym 5 лет назад

Fantastic video. !!! You not only offered the info I wanted to know, you also included what I needed to know. Video angles were on point. And sound was professional.

@garygushue4273 5 лет назад

I've missed so many of your videos Leah, but glad your still putting your beautiful tutorial videos. I've been so swamped with doing kitchen cabinet installs myself. I had to quit working for a company do to the fact of them cursing all the time with my work. I go above & beyond to make the customers happy & he had no appreciation so I just chose to go my way & not tolerate that kind of nonsense.

@sreihart 5 лет назад

Leah you amaze me. I've found this video extremely helpful! I've been planning my kitchen remodel and had no idea what to look for in cabinetry. This answers all my questions. God bless you!

@CrankyPantss 6 лет назад

That was a lot of helpful information in one video. Thanks for sharing it all with us. It's easy to get lost in all of the choices and details, so videos like this are so helpful. I'm looking forward to watching this kitchen renovation progress.

@judyjudyjudy9593 5 лет назад

Leah, for heaven sake I haven't seen you for a long, long time!!!! It is so good to see you! My gosh women, we need more of you & you're videos...you make it so easy to understand! LOL Judie

@Sergeant-of-the-crossing-guard 5 месяцев назад

Thanks SO MUCH, Leah! I’ll be buying my new kitchen cabinets in a few weeks and you’ve given me a handy checklist to bring along. I appreciate your expertise and explanations about why each aspect is important.

@jecht34 5 лет назад

I'm not sure what you do for a living (aside from making these excellent videos) but you should have a classroom. Having skill or knowledge is one thing but the ability to teach is one of the rarest. I am a professional carpenter but I wish I had a fraction of your ability to spell things out. There would fewer mistakes, less wasted time and a lot less frustration if we could spell things out to the helpers or each other on a job site like you can. Keep it up!

@seejanedrill 5 лет назад

Very nice of you to say. Actually, I am a journeyman and worked as a trades instructor.

@Celicheli3 5 лет назад

I so appreciate her expertise. Finally, great honest information. Bravo

@chrisllang8055 Год назад

Hi I just discovered you, you're a great teacher in all you do. Thanks for educating me in cabinetry, a very big decision, and motivating me learn how to use tools, drills ect buy watching your show. Keep the good work up my sista.

@jorrba3934 6 лет назад

Thanks leah. You were spot on. I would just like to add, if you do decide to get MDF, you could always skin the inside. In other words add and glue a thin material. That will protect your cabinet from water damage. You could also stain or paint your skin material. Thanks again

I looked at the price of quality cabinets and decided to learn how to make my own - it was a lot more complicated than I thought, but in the end I'm glad I did it, and now I've learned a very useful skill that I can use time and time again

@rtaylor3350 5 лет назад

I built 27 RTA unfinished Conestoga Wood cabinets myself this year. Had fun staining and top coating them myself and for the uppers, took them out in my backyard and used a Graco sprayer to paint them antique white :) Lots of work, but also the feeling of accomplishing a large project was rewarding. FWIW I've been refinishing and staining wood for 40 years, but only have used a paint sprayer for the recent 4 years

@Wyldbutterfly028 5 лет назад

@mc4kvb 6 лет назад

Leah, thanks so much for such a very detailed explanation of cabinets. You broke it down for us so we would know the difference in several different ones. You make it easy for those of us who might be in the market for cabinets. You gotta love the “soft close feature”!!! Thanks again Leah!!

@seejanedrill 6 лет назад
