Q. How long do plastic cabinets last?

With simple normal care plastic cabinets have a lifespan of 15 years or more. While this timeframe may be short for some homeowners it is perfect for those who are searching for inexpensive renovations to help them quickly flip or sell their homes. Solid hardwood is the material of choice for the longest lasting kitchen cabinets. Some common wood selections are cherry and maple. They cost the most but they last the longest and always look wonderful. You may save money by using plywood or MDF (medium-density fiberboard). You may get them in imitation wood grain finishes to make your cabinets look like they're made of real wood.
