This is what my kitchen used to look like. Right now it's in the middle of a slight renovation.
I'm shortening the peninsula by a foot and replacing the countertops, changing the dishwasher to a black-faced one and replacing the 4-burner white glass top stove with a black 2-burner. Lower cabinets have been out for a month and it looks like another 2-3 weeks of no sink.
The cabinets are oak, about 13 years old and still as good as new.
