If you have white kitchen cabinets...

How long have you had them...and have you been pleased with them?

I painted mine white. I LOVE white cabinets. They do get dirty from small kids, so they do have to be wiped more often than my wood colored ones did.

I love the look....I dislike my current ones because they weren't done properly. The previous owners had painted them (over mid-dark oak stain), and they have chipped terribly and are matte. Not a good look. I'd like to re-do them, but realize it's a huge job.

We had white cabinets in two of our homes. I love white cabinets and plan to either paint mine white or replace them with white cabinets as soon as we have a budget for it.

We had white cabinets in one of our houses. They were painted white over a darker wood stain and they chipped and did not look fabulous. That said, I loved the look. Totally brightened up the kitchen. And they would have been great had the workmanship been better.

I love ours. We painted with an oil based paint so they're super easy to wipe off. I love how bright they make our small kitchen look.
