Kitchen Hardware Recommendation
I wanted to make a quick post to recommend eDirectHardware.com. I found this retailer a couple of weeks ago while shopping for a source of Blum drawer slides. The best price I could find locally for these slides was $38/pair at Rockler, plus tax. eDirectHardware had the same slides for $28/pair with no sales tax and no shipping charge (our order was over $200 which is their free-shipping cutoff). My experience was straight forward - online order with an email receipt. An online "check order status" page told me that my order had shipped (no tracking number...), and it arrived within a week. Awesome.
If I were to do another kitchen I'd order all the cabinet hardware (hinges too) from eDirectHardware.
