What Makes Cherry Wood Cabinets Special?

Cherry wood is a hardwood known for its quality, hard texture, moderate shock resistance, durability, distinct colors and designs. A closed-grain wood, cherry wood is available in various colors — from light brown with a reddish hue to light white with a pale yet lively appearance.

Due to these characteristics, cherry wood cabinets are an excellent choice for any kitchen as they can provide functional and aesthetic value.

What Finishes Are Available for Cherry Wood?

Woodworkers and craftsmen typically use cherry wood for furniture because of its distinctive and unpredictable aging process. Cherry wood also takes stains and finishes well and results in a pleasant, smooth finish. There are many stains and finishes that can be used on cherry wood, but we highly recommend the classic deep cherry glaze as it gives a warm, inviting vibe that can stimulate appetite and improve the mood of your guests.

What Are the Disadvantages of Cherry Wood?

Though cherry wood has many advantages, there are a few disadvantages to consider before installing them in your kitchen. First and foremost, they can be more expensive than other hardwood materials for cabinets. They’re also quite heavy, so you need to hire experts who know how to properly support the weight of these cabinets.
