But what should you consider when choosing between these two kitchen cabinet options?

What are the considerations when choosing between solid wood or painted wood cabinets?

There are a number of considerations to take into account when choosing your kitchen cabinets. Acrylic cabinets are often well regarded but solid wood remain the other most popular option. Over recent years, painted wooden kitchen cabinets have become more popular, and are a great alternative to solid wood. So what should you consider when choosing between these two cabinet options? Well, there are a number of things to take into account. These include:

  • Style- for a kitchen that is more traditional in style, or for a period property, solid wood is the perfect option for your kitchen cabinets. However, if your kitchen is more contemporary, or you want to add an interesting twist to your country style or rustic kitchen, painted wood cabinets can provide the perfect solution. These will add visual interest to the space and help create a real visual statement.
  • Colour scheme- if your kitchen has a specific colour scheme, painted kitchen cabinets can be a great way to complement this and make a visual impact. You can opt for complementary or contrasting colours to maximise the visual impact of the cabinets. Alternatively, solid wood cabinets can be perfect for kitchens with a neutral and natural colour scheme, with the natural wood helping to create the right visual effect.
