When compared to solid wood kitchen cabinets, veneer cabinets are more affordable. This is because veneer cabinets use a thin layer of wood that is glued onto a less expensive substrate material. The substrate can be made of plywood, MDF or particleboard. As a result, the cost of the final product is lower than solid wood cabinets, without sacrificing the natural wood grain look.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
