KCD Unfinished Birch Shaker Wall Cabinet vs Highland 18x30 Unfinished RTA Wall Cabinet

Both are 18x30 unfinished shaker wall cabinets that you assemble yourself, so the choice comes down to construction and hardware. The Highland is the stronger cabinet: 1/2-inch plywood box, finished ends, and six-way adjustable soft-close hinges. The KCD gives you less detail on the box and standard hinges, and its listing is thinner on specs. Buy the Highland if you want a sturdier box and better hinges; buy the KCD only if you want the simplest basic cabinet and don't care about soft close.

• Choose the KCD if you want a plain unfinished shaker wall cabinet and soft-close hinges don't matter to you.
• Choose the Highland if you want a plywood box, finished ends and soft-close adjustable hinges.
