Our dedicated designers will work with you to understand your project, suggest ideas based on the latest trends, and help you choose the brand that is right for your space and budget. Below we go through each of the brands we carry and recommend.
Legacy
Legacy cabinets are stock cabinets, meaning they offer standard sizing with no modifications and limited options. Stock cabinets have their own advantages and disadvantages. Because they offer standard sizing and limited options, the lead time is short, about 3 weeks. Stock cabinets are also more affordable than semi-custom and custom cabinetry. The downside is that you’ll have less customization, but you’ll still be able to choose from select styles, shapes, colors, and wood type.
Legacy cabinets have two lines to choose from; the Debut Series and the Advantage Series. The Debut Series allows you to choose from over 775 color and style combinations. With so many selections, you get a custom feel to your cabinets without the true custom price tag. The Advantage Series you can choose from 8 door styles and 27 finishes. Within both lines, you can choose a particleboard construction or an upgraded plywood construction. Both lines build the cabinets using framed construction. Legacy cabinets are backed by a 5-year warranty.
Legacy cabinets are a high value brand. You’ll have more choices available to you than many other stock kitchen cabinet brands without busting your budget.
Mid-Continent
Mid-Continent cabinets have stock and semi-custom cabinet options. Think of semi-custom cabinets as stock cabinets with extra detailing options. Semi-custom cabinets come in standard cabinetry sizing and you’ll have the option to tweak certain dimensions such as cabinet depth. You’ll have more options than stock cabinets, but less than fully custom cabinets. As you might have guessed, semi-custom cabinets normally fall in the price range between stock and custom. They’re a great option if you need some customization but want to keep the cost in check.
Mid-Continent offers a Signature Series, and you can customize from there. They have a variety of transitional, ornate, traditional and contemporary door styles, 9 different wood species and dozens of finishes to choose from. You can also choose a custom paint color to get the perfect look for your space. Mid-Continent cabinets come with a standard industrial-grade particleboard box construction, but can be upgraded to an all plywood box. If your space fits standard cabinet dimensions, you can save some money but Mid-Continent realizes all spaces don’t fit standard measurements so you can adjust the cabinet height, depth width, and more.
Mid-Continent cabinets are built using framed construction. The standard lead time is about 4 weeks which is very fast compared to other kitchen cabinet brands considering all the custom options available. However, certain custom options can extend the lead time. Mid-Continent also offers an impressive limited lifetime warranty.

Their full access frameless cabinetry has 15% more usable space compared to traditional framed cabinetry other kitchen cabinet brands offer and many homeowners prefer the sleek look of frameless.

The cabinet box comes in standard sizes, but Vista allows you to choose between an industrial grade particleboard and a plywood construction upgrade. Vista offers styles that will range from traditional to very contemporary. Vista not only offers your standard wood species, but also offer Acrylic, Melamine, Thermofoil and Metal door options.
