This study examines the US market for cabinets, defined as enclosed storage units that are permanently affixed to a structure. Cabinet products discussed include kitchen (stock, semicustom and custom), bath (vanities, medicine cabinets, linen cabinets and other), and other (store display cabinets, entertainment centers, home office cabinets, garage cabinets and other special-function room cabinets). While these product categories are often the same as the rooms in which the cabinets are used (i.e., bath cabinets are almost exclusively used in bathrooms), the cabinet type does not always match the location of the installed cabinet, as in the case of kitchen cabinets adapted for use in such other locations as laundry rooms, family rooms or bedrooms. Furniture pieces, ready-to-assemble cabinets, bookcases and other casework that fulfill similar storage functions are not included in the scope of the study.
