I am considering buying kitchen cabinets from a company in Claremount NH called Crown Point. Does anyone have any experience with this company?

Our cabinets came from Crown Point. The staff are nice to deal with, the cabinets are very high quality. Prices are up there, but I have no regrets spending the money.
They completed the order when they said they would and they stand behind their products. If I can answer a specific question just ask or e-mail me.
Are they the RTA (ready to assemble) type? If so, see how a competing quote from Scherr's looks to you. They have a great website.
Thanks for the site suggestion. RTA would be even better but i want face frame (door and drawer face fits in frame not overlapping the frame). I live in Ontario Canada and have not found anyone around here that does this kind of work.
I asked Leon Scherr about how he would address a job with inset doors. We have a job to do next spring with that design.
He replied that they often make the carcases and doors and drawers for customers that make their own faceframes, but not the faceframes themselves.
I know they are capable of making faceframes, though, if you detail it all out and get them to make exactly what you specify.
You can get frame-and-panel doors from them that have mitered corners, and the edge detail is beaded. With a flat faceframe surround, that would look good.
The attached pic shows a bookshelf they made for me, including the faceframe. Parts came cut exactly to size, prepped for pocket screws. The frame went together in ten minutes.
Our crown point cabinets were also inset doors, the fit and finish is excellent.
