I have them under sinks, floor near washing machine, and in the basement by the sump pump. I use SmartThings ones, but several options available.

I have no idea if they have recovered. We are still very pleased with these cabinets. IMO, very good if you are looking for a contemporary/Modernist look. The top cabinets are deeper than most American cabinets. Also, IKEA has a lot of accessories that coordinate with the drawers and cabinets to maximize storage. We also did their under-counter and in-cabinet lighting. You can meet up at the Stoughton store with a kitchen planner. It’s necessary to do this as they have access to inventory that you would not get through the regular store website. FYI: they have two types of product—one for inexpensive apartment-type installations, and then longer term residential lines. We put all of the cabinets together ourselves. Get a power screwdriver... As for flooring, I highly recommend Flooring America on Rte. 9 in Natick, westbound side. We used pre-finished oak flooring from Canada, and laminated cork for other areas. We did use Lumber Liquidators for basement flooring (click vinyl laminated planking). We, too, had a pipe burst. Unbelievably destructive. Yes, very good idea to carefully look at sink and bathroom pipes, replacing them, even if you think they are still good enough. A friend of mine had what she realized too late was a slow tiny leak for years. Her meticulously maintained bath fixtures were 50 years old. Now, 5 months later, her work is done. From the upstairs bath, through the LR, all the way to the basement, she had to replace walls, flooring, ceilings, insulation, etc., through the three floors. It would have been cheaper to just replace the still functioning vanity and faucet. Stuff corrodes and then it leaks….. > On Nov 27, 2022, at 12:56 PM, Sara Levine <[email protected]> wrote: > > Hi neighbors, > > In the aftermath of an unfortunate leak, we are looking for recommendations > for someone to help with kitchen redesign and/ or your positive experiences > with local cabinet & flooring stores? > > Also, public service announcement… peek under your kitchen sink more often > than you do! :) > > Be well all. > > Thanks, > Sara > > > > > > > > > > > > -- > The LincolnTalk mailing list. > To post, send mail to [email protected]. > Search the archives at http://lincoln.2330058.n4.nabble.com/. > Browse the archives at https://pairlist9.pair.net/mailman/private/lincoln/. > Change your subscription settings at > https://pairlist9.pair.net/mailman/listinfo/lincoln. > -- The LincolnTalk mailing list.
