OP, what conditions are your csbinet boxes? Are they solid, high quality wood?

If they are in good condition, you can remove the doors, strip them down, then just order new doors, drawer fronts, hinges and hardware online. That might save you money as well.[/quote]

Lipstick on a pig. Cabinets are the most important thing in a kitchen. Besides, the new cabinets aren't doors anymore, they're 100% drawers. [/quote]

Actually, some of the older cabinets are much nicer quality workmanship and wood than newer cabinets. If they are solid wood the boxes can easily be refinished without compromising beauty.

Drawers only may work well for you but they are impractical for many. A mix of drawers and cabinets might not be trendy or the flavor of the day, but they are very functional and make much more sense in terms of storage and usage.[/quote]

I disagree about drawers. We have all drawers and one corner cabinet and one trash pullout and it's wonderful. I have dishes in drawers and pots and pans. Much easier to access and I don't have to squat and dig through the cabinets, nothing falls out of I open the door.  Of course for some that may not work. I suggest taking stock of all your kitchen supplies before ordering cabinets and not just getting the same things you have now. [/quote]

+1. Drawers are incredible. I have yet to find a single instance of a cabinet being better than a drawer. Even my plates are great in my drawers (we have peg dividers). We were able to fit 4x more in our kitchen with drawers versus what we had with cabinets.[/quote]
