Installing Kitchen Cabinets Made Simple: Includes Companion Step-by-Step Video (Made Simple (Taunton Press))

I have cabinets coming and what the book says makes me think that I can install them without too much trouble. I missed though, how to install island cabinets. I have a new kitchen area and I'am hoping it is pretty clean.Watch the DVD. It has the missing info and adds a lot to the book.

The information included in the book and video is very helpful. The problem is there are so many more aspects of cabinet installation that were not covered. Maybe the book should be re-titled to "beginners guide". Time was spent explaining some very basic things that if you didn't know how to do, you should not be installing your own cabinets. I really needed information on the more complicated aspects like: what to do when you have soffits on the kitchen ceiling, and walls that are out of square, out of plumb, have a wave, and a floor not level, all at the same time. Book was well written and easy to follow, video was well made.

Great for the beginner or as a re-fresher course. "Made Simple" is a pretty accurate statement for someone who has some carpentry background and is going to tackle a basic kitchen cabinet install. Everything you learn here will transalte into how to install more complex cabinetry. Worth every penny.

Perfect !! ... great descriptions with the details I need to get the project done ! ... Awesome book !

This is a very good book about installing kitchen cabinets, but it only discusses installing laminated counter tops . It does not go into installing marble, stone, or quartz counter tops, which make me think he book is a bit dated or maybe they think that job should be left to the pros, who knows?

very basic ideas, none exclusive
