West Dundee’s Guide to Selecting the Best Kitchen Cabinets and Countertops

Welcome to West Dundee, where your home isn’t just a place to live—it’s a canvas waiting for your personal touch!

At Planet Cabinets, we understand that updating your kitchen cabinets and countertops can completely transform your space.

It’s not just about the immediate impact of beautiful aesthetics; it’s about making a wise investment in your home.

Upgrading your kitchen can significantly enhance its beauty and boost its overall value, providing you with both visual pleasure and financial benefits.

Whether you’re dreaming of a modern makeover or a timeless renovation, we’re here to turn those dreams into reality.

Let’s explore how the right choices in kitchen design can bring lasting elegance and value to your home in West Dundee.

Understanding Your Needs: Starting Your Kitchen Remodel in West Dundee

Embarking on a kitchen remodel in West Dundee begins with a deep understanding of your personal style, functionality requirements, and lifestyle.

Here at Planet Cabinets, we believe that your kitchen should not only reflect your aesthetic preferences but also cater to your daily needs seamlessly.

Consider how you use your kitchen. Is it the heart of your home where family gathers and meals are lovingly prepared?

Or perhaps it serves as a multi-functional space where you also manage work and assist with homework?

Envisioning your daily activities in this space will help you identify what works and what doesn’t in your current setup.

From storage needs to the layout that best facilitates your cooking style, every element should enhance your kitchen’s functionality.

We encourage West Dundee homeowners to think about how each aspect of their kitchen can serve their unique way of living.

This approach ensures that your remodel not only looks spectacular but also perfectly aligns with the rhythm of your life, making everyday tasks more enjoyable and efficient.

Exploring Materials: Selecting Kitchen Cabinets in West Dundee

When selecting kitchen cabinets for your West Dundee home, the choice of material is pivotal, balancing both aesthetics and practicality. At Planet Cabinets, we pride ourselves on offering a wide array of materials in our showroom, ensuring you find the perfect fit for your style and needs.

Classic Wood: Wood cabinets bring warmth and timeless appeal to any kitchen. Whether you prefer the rich, deep tones of cherry or the light, airy feel of maple, wood offers durability and the flexibility to adapt to any design style. It’s perfect for those who appreciate natural beauty and long-lasting quality.

Modern Synthetics: For a more contemporary look, consider synthetic materials like laminate or thermofoil. These materials provide a sleek, uniform appearance at a more affordable price point. They are also easy to maintain, resisting stains and moisture better than some natural woods, making them a practical choice for busy kitchens.

Eco-Friendly Options: If sustainability is a priority, we offer eco-friendly materials that do not compromise on style or durability. These options help reduce your environmental impact while still providing the high-quality look and feel you expect from premium cabinetry.

Each material has its unique benefits, and our experienced staff is here to guide you through the selection process. We’ll help you understand which materials best meet your aesthetic desires and practical needs, ensuring your kitchen cabinets are not only beautiful but also perfectly suited to your daily life in West Dundee.

Countertop Considerations: Choosing Kitchen Countertops in West Dundee

Choosing the right countertops is crucial in creating a kitchen that’s not only striking but also highly functional. Here in West Dundee, we at Planet Cabinets offer a selection of top-quality materials like granite, quartz, and marble, each with unique characteristics to suit various tastes and needs.

Granite: Known for its rugged natural beauty, granite countertops are highly valued for their unique color variations and patterns. Each slab is one-of-a-kind, providing a distinct aesthetic that can’t be replicated. Granite is also very durable, resistant to heat and scratches, making it ideal for those who love to cook. However, it does require regular sealing to prevent stains.

Quartz: If you seek the elegance of natural stone without the maintenance, quartz countertops are an excellent choice. This engineered stone offers a more uniform appearance and comes in a wide range of colors and patterns. It’s non-porous, which means it resists staining much better than granite and doesn’t require sealing.

Marble: Marble countertops are the epitome of luxury, adding a classic touch to any kitchen. While marble is not as hard as granite or quartz, it handles heat well, making it a favorite among bakers, especially those who enjoy making pastries where a cooler surface is preferable. Marble requires some care to prevent staining and etching, so regular sealing and careful maintenance are necessary.

When selecting countertops for your West Dundee home, consider how the material will stand up to your daily kitchen activities and maintenance preferences. At Planet Cabinets, we help you weigh these factors to choose a countertop that not only enhances your kitchen’s aesthetics but also fits seamlessly into your lifestyle, ensuring lasting beauty and functionality.

  I first met Ofer on a cold-call to look at stock cabinets for a wet  bar in our basement. I'd just come off a few terrible GC experiences and was working at dipping my toes back into the water. Fast forward: he and his group did such an amazing job with that small project in the fall of '21, that here we are a brand new kitchen, dining room built-ins and living room later this last fall ('23) - we LOVE Ofer and Udi and Planet Cabinets. Incredibly knowledgeable, pro-active, great attention to detail, organized, communicative. We will only work with this group again and look forward to the next project. Big or small! Thanks for all you do!

  Wonderful showroom with amazing customer service. Reviewed all of our options.
Assisted with the drawings and provided great ideas to maximize our layout.

We have chosen to use this firm again. I cannot express enough their knowledge in cabinet design and engineering.
We are working on new construction and their insight is well appreciated.
The head of the company, Mr. Yeager, has an outstanding approach to customer care.

  Udi and Ofer know there stuff and that made the decisions easy for us! Maryana, the international designer, took our ideas and in a short time had the complete design plans for our kitchen!  I highly recommend Planet Cabinets to anyone in the Chicago area who is looking for cabinets and or countertops.

  We bought our brand-new shaker cabinets from Planet Cabinets for our recent kitchen remodel. We are so happy with the quality of these cabinets! They are easy to clean, made of solid wood and are by far the best standard (stock) cabinetry we have found, and for the best price. Their showroom has a good selection of colors and styles of cabinetry and quartz countertops to fit all budgets. Highly recommend checking out Planet Cabinets!

  I cannot say enough good things about my experiences  with Planet Cabinets and all of their staff. I am a retired real estate developer and builder -and have had the opportunity over 25 years and over 500 homes to deal with numerous cabinet suppliers.

Their product is of high quality and their service is exceptional. I can also say that when I first went to them I was curious as to how they would compare in pricing to suppliers I had purchased hundreds of cabinets from.  I was pleased to see they were extremely competitive across their full range of products and styles.

Most recently , my wife and I remodeled the kitchen in our own home . They helped design  a beautiful  space that incorporated all that we had desired and more. We selected a stained rustic cherry cabinet which allows the beauty of the grain to show with the warmth and appeal of an aged barn siding. We coupled that with the same rustic cherry wood in a much darker stain for the island  and couldn’t be happier.

We were on extremely tight schedule to finish  before Thanksgiving . The cabinets arrived even earlier than they promised  and nothing was missing, damaged or back ordered and were completed ahead of schedule!

This was the 4th set of kitchen cabinets  ranging from stock  cabinets for rehab to to semi- custom made to order we have ordered through them and not once has there been an issue on delivery or quality . Whatever your cabinet needs or budget , you will not be disappointed if you choose Planet Cabinets.

  Loved working with Planet Cabinet! We were considering an Ikea kitchen, but when their inventory became a problem, we reached out to Planet Cabinet. So glad we did. Not only was it a joy working with Ofer, but the cabinets were gorgeous, and in the end it was only a few thousand more than Ikea. Plywood boxes, solid doors, more choices in sizing. Absolutely worth it. Very professional. Great communication. Beautiful product. Highly recommended!!

  We are happy to share our outstanding experience with the selection and service we encountered at Planet Cabinets. As homeowners undertaking a renovation project, selecting the right cabinet company was a very important decision, and Planet Cabinets proved to be the perfect choice.

From the outset, co-owners Udi Yeger and Ofer Gliksman at Planet Cabinets exhibited a high level of professionalism. The  showroom provided an extensive display of cabinet styles, materials, and finishes, and Udi guided us through the selection process with patience and expertise. His commitment to helping us find the perfect fit for our kitchen, laundry room, and baths was apparent from the beginning.

Udi worked closely with us to accommodate specific design preferences and spatial constraints, ensuring that the final product met our expectations. We selected the Europa brand and we couldn’t be happier. The attention to detail in the design and construction is evident in every aspect, from the precision of the joints to the flawless finish. The quality of materials used speaks to the company's commitment to durability and longevity. Our new cabinets have transformed the aesthetic appeal of our home and increased its functionality and organization.

We used Maya Construction, a sister company of Planet Cabinets, as our renovation contractor.  This was a smart move - buying our cabinets from our contractors proved advantageous as their pricing was highly competitive. Additionally, entrusting them as general contractors streamlined the process and assured us of prompt issue resolution. Throughout the entire renovation, Udi maintained excellent communication. He provided a clear timeline for production and delivery, and any inquiries or concerns were addressed promptly. This level of transparency and responsiveness made the experience smooth and stress-free. The installation team from Maya was efficient, respectful of our home, and left the space impeccably clean. Their attention to detail during installation further reinforced our confidence in their expertise.

We highly recommend Planet Cabinets (and Maya Construction!) to anyone in need of high-quality cabinets and exceptional service. Our sincere thanks to Udi, Ofer, designer Maryana, and Maya’s construction crew for transforming our home!

  After viewing and pricing cabinets at box stores, we decided to pay a visit to this small neighborhood shop. It was a decision we would appreciate enormously. We were able to complete the kitchen design we liked at a fraction of the cost at box stores. Mariana and Ofer (an owner) were delightful, fulfilled our requests with utmost respect and treated us like family. I would highly recommend Planet to anyone looking to redo a kitchen.

  Ofer and team were FANTASTIC to work with! We had a small laundry project and were frustrated with the absurd quotes from big box stores (e.g. Home Depot) and thought we would try something local. Ofer offered great quality (dovetail joints, soft close hinges), reasonable prices and included curbside delivery (cabinets) and installation (countertop). We sent his team our measurements and they provided recent projects for inspiration and brought our design to life with layouts and 3D renderings. The charcoal color is absolutely beautiful and we love the quartz countertop. My only problem is that my laundry room is now the nicest room in our home :-) We would definitely work with Ofer again - HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

  We used Planet Cabinets for two items: (1) a simple white cabinet in our basement; and (2) custom green cabinets in our bathroom under the counter/sink.

The cabinets themselves are beautiful and good quality. But what I want to emphasize most is the seamless experience we had purchasing the cabinets. Udi worked with me patiently and directly to help me pick out the cabinets that I needed. He helped me measure the space to ensure that I had the right size cabinets. And the cabinets arrived exactly within the time frame that he said they would.

I was also impressed with their selection - not so many options that it was overwhelming, but plenty from which to choose.

I would highly recommend purchasing your cabinets from Planet Cabinets.
