The KraftMaid line did have the all plywood construction, and it is
"finished" inside and out. And, it is cheaper. I am definitely
looking elsewhere for my replacement cabinets, and will not consider
Home Depot for major appliances either.

Do you have an Ikea near you? We are seriously considering them for our
kitchen. They seem to have very nice, relatively expensive cabinets and
counters. My mother-in-law got some from Ikea and has been very happy. They
also clearly specify what they are made of - solid wood with birch veneer,
MDF with Pine veneer, etc.

Just a thought to try.
