Online, March 23, 2010 (Newswire.com) - Week of 3/21/2010

Today's homeowners, who want to replace their kitchen cabinets, must be even wiser consumers to overcome family budget limitations and be environmentally conscious of the choices they make.

Bamboo RTA (ready-to-assemble) kitchen cabinets could be the wisest choice for homeowners who want to save money and support a greener, cleaner planet.

From a design perspective, bamboo has grown in popularity for kitchen cabinets. It's light color and tight grain creates the look of a smoother surface than some other light-colored woods used in kitchen cabinets. Those characteristics make bamboo a pleasing match with darker, sleek granite countertops and popular floor coverings. In addition, many styles of cabinet pulls complement bamboo.

Homeowners can enjoy the look of bamboo in their kitchens and save money by choosing bamboo RTA cabinets. Under the current economic conditions, many families have discovered that investing some of their time in the installation of new kitchen cabinets lowers the cost of the project. It's also an opportunity to learn some new skills and work together as a family to improve the home environment.

As with any home project, consumer education is the key when deciding to choose and install RTA kitchen cabinets. Although only the most common tools are required, there are tips and hints easily available to improve homeowners' knowledge before they improve their kitchens.

Most popular wood choices for kitchen cabinets are natural products and environmentally sustainable because more trees can be grown; however, bamboo grows very quickly and there are many places in the world where it can be grown.

Because of advancements in manufacturing, bamboo provides many more benefits that will attract the interest of budget-wary homeowners, who are also committed to creating a better environment in the home and the world.

There was a time when bamboo could only be used if it was veneered, but now some manufacturers offer solid bamboo RTA kitchen cabinets. This eliminates the use of certain toxic glues that are used in veneered or laminated kitchen cabinets. Many of the new bamboo RTA cabinets are also finished with no or low-VOC varnish, which improves indoor air quality.
