4.0 out of 5 stars Good video, January 16, 2007

I learned a lot about making the marks on the wall and using a water level accurately. That explanation alone was very helpful. I liked watching him work and picked up some good tips like the typical spacing of the cabinets. I thought the tape could have done without the countertop manufacturing piece, I thought it was a waste of time, should have showed more of Tom adjusting the doors and things of that nature.

overall, worth the money.

5.0 out of 5 stars Insatlling my kitchen cabinets, March 23, 2010

This review is from: Installing Kitchen Cabinets and Countertops (DVD)

This video was very good and thorough. I watched this 5 times before installing our new cabinets. Although there are hundreds of ways to install cabinets, Tom Law reviews the typical way and includes many subtle techniques like marking stud locations just above the level line where the counter top will cover. I actually built one of his jack-boxes to help put the uppers on. Installing my own cabinets saved multiple thousands of dollars and owning this video would be a wise investment. Enjoy.
