A messy, inefficient kitchen doesn’t just slow you down when cooking. It drains the joy from what should be a place of comfort and ease. That’s why investing in high-quality base kitchen cabinets with drawers can make such a dramatic difference.
And at Modern Cabinets & Co., we believe every kitchen deserves to feel orderly, stylish, and effortless.
The global demand for kitchen cabinetry is booming. According to recent industry data, the overall kitchen cabinet market is projected to grow strongly in the coming years (source).
Here are a few recent trends fueling this surge:
On a more personal level, kitchens continue to be the number one target for home renovations. In 2024, nearly a quarter of homeowners upgrading their homes chose to renovate the kitchen (source). People are willing to spend more for improved functionality and aesthetics (source).
That’s where we at Modern Cabinets & Co. come in, offering premium, thoughtfully designed base kitchen cabinets with drawers that meet this growing need with style and practicality.
We know that not all kitchen cabinets are created equal. At Modern Cabinets & Co., we focus on craftsmanship, durability, and design that makes everyday use a pleasure. Let’s unpack what sets our base cabinet options apart and why they are particularly well suited to help busy homeowners reclaim their kitchen.
Here are some of our standout products with their specifications:

Let’s dive deeper into what these features mean for your everyday kitchen use.
Each cabinet is built with a ¾-inch-thick solid wood frame, giving a sturdy backbone to withstand daily use. The cabinet-grade plywood shelving and box ensure long-term durability. Combined with dovetail-joined solid wood drawers, these cabinets will not sag or warp easily, even under heavy load.
The concealed undermount full-extension drawer glides make it possible to access the entire drawer smoothly and quietly. Soft-close hinges and glides make both doors and drawers close gently, preventing slams and reducing wear over time. This kind of thoughtful hardware means less maintenance and a quieter kitchen, which is especially important for busy households.
The base cabinets come in multiple configurations (single-drawer, double-drawer, double-door with drawers) to suit different needs, whether you want deep storage for pots and pans, easy access to frequently used tools, or a mix of both. The angled wall cabinet is ideal for maximizing vertical and corner space without sacrificing neatness.
The full overlay design gives the kitchen a sleek, integrated look, rather than a patchwork of mismatched units.
Let’s get a little more real. When you live with a cramped kitchen, mismatched cabinets, or disorganized storage, here are some of the frustrations you face, plus how our cabinets can solve them.
Many kitchens lack deep drawers suitable for bulky cookware. As a result, you end up stacking pots and lids precariously, dragging them out every time you cook.
Our solution: The deeper base cabinets with full-extension drawers bring the bottom-level storage up to eye height. No more bending down and digging. Everything is easy to see and reach. The dovetail solid-wood drawers hold weight securely. You get big, organized space for heavy cookware.
Utensils, measuring spoons, and cooking gadgets tend to vanish into the back corners of deep shelves or get jumbled in mismatched drawers.
Our solution: With dedicated drawers and soft-close full-extension slides, you can create designated zones for utensils, gadgets, and tools. Drawers give instant visibility and easy retrieval. It’s easier to keep things organized and keep them that way.
When storage is inconsistent, some units have open shelves, others bulky pantry cabinets, and the kitchen loses cohesion, looking cluttered or pieced together.
Our solution: The full overlay design and premium finishes of our Charleston White collection offer a consistent, seamless look. Whether you choose a base cabinet with two doors and one drawer or go for a double door with drawers, all units match in style and finish. Add the corner wall cabinet for optimum use of space.
Low-quality hinges and drawer glides can lead to noisy kitchens, misaligned doors, and long-term durability problems.
Our solution: We use concealed undermount glides and six-way adjustable European-style hinges with soft-close. Doors and drawers close gently and align perfectly. That means less maintenance, fewer repairs, and a kitchen that feels refined day after day.
Upgrading to base kitchen cabinets with drawers from Modern Cabinets & Co. is not just a renovation. It’s a transformation of how you use your kitchen. Imagine opening a drawer and instantly finding the pot lid you need. Or storing your baking sheets vertically and effortlessly sliding them out when needed. Or walking into a kitchen that feels calm, clean, and organized.
