I love storage solutions and I help my clients make those functional decisions every day! Before I was a cabinet designer at Forever Cabinets, I was in the process of building a new home. Forever Cabinets worked with me on designing my own kitchen, and I knew I wanted a place for items that made sense. When it came to my pots, pans & lids I knew they needed to be close to my stove. What type of cabinet did I want? My choices were adjustable shelves, roll-out trays, or drawers. The idea of bending over and getting on my hands and knees to get an item out didn’t appeal to me, so adjustable shelves were ruled out. Roll-outs vs. drawers, my deciding factor was did I want 2 steps or 1 step to get to my item. With a roll-out, it’s 2 steps (considering if it’s 1 door) open the door and pull out your roll-out.

It’s home show season at Forever Cabinets and we are loving every minute of it! Our team has been busy for the last few months putting together all of the details for this year’s home show display, and we finally got to see all of our hard work come together mid-February in Waterloo. The Eastern Iowa Home Show in Waterloo was a huge success this year. Our designers enjoyed working with new clients, visiting with previous clients, and sharing all of the cool features this year’s display kitchen boasts. Our display had a new twist this year as were able to share The Markket and its infinite awesomeness with everyone in Waterloo.
