​Shenandoah Cabinets Quality

Shenandoah build all of their cabinets to a high standard and use the best materials. All production takes place within the U.S and they take pride in every unit.

I have owned my Shenandoah kitchen cabinets in Breckenridge Maple Spice designed and installed through Lowe’s since 2011.  I thought they looked good when they were installed, and I think they still look great nearly six years later.  Overall it’s good craftsmanship and good products.

Some of the more common criticisms of Shenandoah cabinets are about their add ons and doors.

No idea how durable they are, but just can’t get good doors for the cabinets.” – Kerry T.

It’s true that the door selection of Shenandoah is less than that of competitors. My advice is to go into a dealership and have a look round at all the options.

Other criticisms are generally concerned with customer service and damage during delivery. This is a dealer issue not a manufacturing one but be sure to allow a cushion of time to sort out any problems that might occur.

Overall Shenandoah are producing cabinetry that people are happy with. It’s one of the most affordable on the market and It’s saving people money across the country. Be sure to upgrade what you can for the best user experience.  I hope you have enjoyed my Shenandoah cabinet reviews!
