Hi everyone,
I'm a long time lurker (I used to post on the garden board eons ago)...we are embarking on our kitchen remodel *finally*.

I found the name of a custom cabinet maker on this forum and I know it's a long shot but was wondering if anyone here had actually used them.
Dynamic Kitchens & Furniture in Copiague on Long Island.

Love what he has to offer but before we go ahead
would like to hear from anyone who has experience with them. thanks in advance!

Laurie

    Hi Laurie, I am on Long Island too and looked into Dynamic Kitchens briefly before deciding to go with frameless cabinets. If you look on the LIfamilies.com website, there are many satisfied customers there. You can PM them for more details. I think the daughter posts there too. Good Luck!

    I live on Long Island and went to Dynamic Kitchens. His work is beautiful and his prices were lower than Home Depot, Lowe's and Consumers kitchens and bath. The only reason I did not go with him is because a neighbor recommended another custom cabinet maker, who I went with. The guy from Dynamic had no problem bringing me into his shop and showing me his work.

    Laurie I am still about 2 weeks from having my cabinets installed but I have seen them in his shop. They are not stained yet because I just picked the stain color. If you would like his name and number please email me and I will give it to you.

    Hi, I am new to gardenweb.com. I would like to message anyone who has had experience with kitchen cabinet making and installation by Dynamic Kitchens and Furniture. I do no understand how to locate people's email addresses. Would someone please help me? Additionally, I found no reviews f or the company on LIfamilies.com. Thanks.

    Hi LIDuck,

    We ended up using Dynamic. We love our kitchen. However (and I knew this going in) he takes foreverrrrrrrr....we were supposed to be installed before thanksgiving and we were done just a few days before Christmas (and then bits and pieces after that were dragged out).

    We are thrilled with the design and install. I will try and attach a few pictures

    I don't know why some pics are sideways, sorry.

    I haven't done my full reveal yet - 6 months later and I still can't pick a backsplash!!

    Thank you wdwsue. I will email you.

    And thank you too avntgardnr for replying so quickly. Your cabinet color, and design and execution look stunning. Pulleeze tell me you have a floor and countertop installed by now??

    I really don't 'get' this process at all.

    My kitchen is tiny. My puppy and his too large crate both live there. The kitchen is off the back door through which he must exit to pee. Oh, and the gut which must occur, includes 70 yo plaster walls and plaster ceiling. When those are replaced, I cannot deal with delays in installation. Taking too long to complete a job is upsetting news for sure.

    Hi LI Duck,

    Yes, I do have a countertop (I didn't realize it wasn't in those pictures lol) and the floor is installed in those picture (but hard to see).

    That's a more competed version :-)

    I will be by honest - Jim does fantastic work but there will be delays. Every person I spoke to (and who have used him since) had delays of many weeks.

    I would love to recommend him to everyone I come across, and actually have other work I would like to use him for, but the crazy delays....


    Best of luck with your remodel. Take lots of pics!!
