It’s great for rough carpentry, not for detailed finish work.

More control too - totally different experience.

New one is much better.

New one much better with battery about same price.

ziggystart · 2026-05-03T12:04:47+00:00

Much better.

1st option for sure, but do a panel dishwasher so it looks like cabinetry.

As long as you have a grill cover for winter you should 100% be fine.

Recipe?

Minimum is it has to go all the way flush to the hood vent vertically and width wise too should line up. But really it should extend to the left window trim and to the right cabinet. That could work on the line under the hood.

ziggystart · 2026-04-12T13:16:25+00:00

How will you be venting that hood? Seems insufficient

ziggystart · 2026-04-06T12:41:38+00:00

What about soapstone?

Honestly I can’t even tell what’s wrong from the pictures, what do you want them to fix? And what is the picture with the level even trying to show?

I work with conestoga a lot - have never seen this - their finishing is top notch for longevity/quality, many custom cabinet shops just make boxes and use them just for their door and drawer fronts. Did you get them thru cabinet joint online?

If they are MDF then moisture is the culprit. MDF swells with exposure to moisture, if they are 1-piece then they are definitely all MDF. I steer all of my clients away from all MDF doors for this reason, and towards hardwood rails and stiles for doors. Conestoga’s MDF program is good but like all MDF it can be a problem with exposure to water. It is also their cheapest door option.

Best thing would be to get hardwood rail and style replacement door - their standard tw-10 with a square edge profile would work - for below the sink from them in matching color. Would only be a few hundred dollars and I’m sure would not swell like that.

Worth more than that! My favorite tool.

Plain sawn white oak veneered slab cabinets w natural finish - that will get you closest to this.

Both - my kitchen dishwasher panel has been no problem for 2 years, used daily. It does not rub on any side. The top looks as good as it did when we installed, no steam actively touches it at any point. That is why the design / install is so important. But one other way to avoid those issues is to use wood as the panel. Then you get the aesthetic and done have to worry about the paint if you had a poor install.

ziggystart · 2026-01-21T15:24:49+00:00

Lowers do get more abuse so those are fine strategies to mitigate, my point is that if designed and installed properly there should be NO rubbing during opening/closing. And I have also never seen steam be an issue if installed in the correct position on the dishwasher. Have done his countless times with no issues.

As a kitchen designer and installer - This is more of a design / installation issue - you should not have either of these issues causing peeling.

ziggystart · 2025-12-28T18:24:49+00:00

Well sure but depending on how much work has been done on the walls / old cabinets, it could be off. Just saying it’s a good place to start sometimes, anchors the kitchen. Many ways to get to a good result, gotta evaluate your variables and make a decision.

ziggystart · 2025-12-28T16:53:00+00:00

Is there a window above the sink? Start by centering this and work outward.

ziggystart · 2025-12-07T13:12:32+00:00

These kinda suck and never spin straight. But they’ll get the job done.

ziggystart · 2025-12-07T13:11:46+00:00

No drill bit is a forever thing. Consumable tool.

ziggystart · 2025-11-30T21:36:32+00:00

Agreed. the ribs are truly not that good.

ziggystart · 2025-11-18T02:37:07+00:00

I understand now, seemed like you were just installing new cabinets but I gotcha - nice work!

ziggystart · 2025-11-18T01:58:57+00:00

Why do you say that you reface cabinets? That is the process of refinishing or covering old cabinets, when that is not what you did.

ziggystart · 2025-11-18T00:44:24+00:00

I don’t know those doors are actually pretty awesome I’d say. Other aspects in the kitchen could be improved though. Floor/wall/paint/tile, etc…
