"There are quite a few people who prefer the prefab kitchen cabinets to the more custom designed ones. Many have cited the ease and convenience […]. The prefab ones can be picked up right away." All you have to do is walk into a store that sells one and pick it up. You bring it home and you install it. Quick and painless. So what are some of the other benefits to owning a prefab kitchen cabinet, as opposed to the others. 1) While prefab cabinets are not custom, they do come in a wide range of shapes, sized and colors. There is no truth that prefab cabinets only come on way. With a prefab cabinet, you have more to work with. You can see what suits your home décor the best. "
