Through a comprehensive, multimedia approach he shows exactly how to do it yourself, from choosing the right cabinetry and countertop materials to preparing the site for easy installation. There’s valuable direction for installing both wall and base cabinets so they’re level and square, as well as perfecting side panels and trim around the cabinets. The author’s foolproof methods apply to both stock and custom cabinets, giving readers plenty of options—both high-end and economical—for updating their kitchens. Step-by-step text, photos, sidebars, and “WorkSmart” tips will go a long way in getting the new look just right.

I have cabinets coming and what the book says makes me think that I can install them without too much trouble. I missed though, how to install island cabinets. I have a new kitchen area and I'am hoping it is pretty clean.

Great for the beginner or as a re-fresher course. "Made Simple" is a pretty accurate statement for someone who has some carpentry background and is going to tackle a basic kitchen cabinet install. Everything you learn here will transalte into how to install more complex cabinetry. Worth every penny.

The information included in the book and video is very helpful. The problem is there are so many more aspects of cabinet installation that were not covered. Maybe the book should be re-titled to "beginners guide". Time was spent explaining some very basic things that if you didn't know how to do, you should not be installing your own cabinets. I really needed information on the more complicated aspects like: what to do when you have soffits on the kitchen ceiling, and walls that are out of square, out of plumb, have a wave, and a floor not level, all at the same time. Book was well written and easy to follow, video was well made.
