We got an initial design & quote at Home Depot, but I really did not feel comfortable buying from a big box store. Did some more research and found that the same Cabinets we priced at Home Depot were made by Masterbrand and could be bought pretty much anywhere. Home Depots brand was Thomasville, we ended up buying Kemper from Kitchen Unlimited right on Union near Walden. For the price we paid + install & tax I think we should of just went the custom made route. We did get a quote for semi custom and it was not far off what we ended up paying.

That dressing room is on point, love it :tup:  
Kitchen is coming along nicely too, and the contrasting cabinets (white wall/dark brown bases) is definitely a nice touch. We did that in our main kitchen and finished basement bar area.

Keep up on the pics once complete…

Couple updates from last week after the counters went in… since then it has just been moving from one place to another and cleaning up the old place for the new tenants who move in today.

the ‘island’ with the weathered wood top was from lowes but was actually good quality and cheap. wood features… [#sohawtrightnow](http://www.nyspeed.com/usertag.php?do=list&action=hash&hash=sohawtrightnow)

the faucets and stuff are now in… there are still quite a few things to be done but the major stuff is there and we are loving here now but we have weeks of fine tuning to go… i also cleaned out the garage and got some SICK racking from costco

here is a youtube review on them: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0YOsMHaTTEc](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0YOsMHaTTEc)

really happy with the strength and value… in Canadaland they are $250 after tax… cant beat it…

I’ll trade you a new nano and $50 USD. But you bring it over the boarder. 🙂

Never mind. Looks like $200 exemption for less than 48 hours. Just need a receipt. I will be driving through on Saturday.

Thanks man. I also realzed I will probably be driving the V back for easter anyway so it wouldn’t fit (No fold down seats to increase rigidity). But I might check to see if there is a lowes in Winsor.  
You might hear me fly through hamilton around 10/11am. Sorry to sidetrack the thread. I enjoy watching the progress and motivating me to buy something.
