re: Painted kitchen cabinets?

I can't stand painted cabinets. Something about it cheapens it to me. Might as well buy some pine and paint them.
Not saying you can't update the look, but painting over a quality wood cabinet irks me. Like putting linoleum over hard wood floors. The painting/antiquing feels very "fad"-ish to me, but it is very popular.

I think that's part of my husband's dislike too. He says once they're painted it's nearly impossible to go back.
And they aren't mdf, they're solid, at least the facings are, but I'm pretty sure they're pine stained honey oak color. This was a step above a starter home when we bought, there was nothing custom here. Resale market can't support a lot of upgrades and we're hoping to sell in a few years.

Exactly my opinion as well. Of course I used to think stainless steel appliances were a temporary fashion and the same for granite counter tops.
