We are just about finished with a nexus yellow-brown front with white base cabs and I am pretty pleased with the finished product ALTHOUGH it bothers me a bit to see the white cab between the drawers....most specifically the 30 inch three cab base drawers...the 15 inch cabs seem like a pretty good fit, the 24 inch three drawers are a decent fit too although they seem a little slow moving and are a bit sticky (they need some sort of adjustment I am sure) but i am a little put off seeing the white between and around the 30 inch cabs. Any feedback and any remedy??

thanks!

You could put on edge banding - just search for that term here and there are sources for it. But edge banding is harder to apply once the cabinets are in place.

Another possibility is to paint the edges - there is a thread here somewhere about painting the cabinets. The suggestion is to get a primer intended for use on melamine, then pick a paint color that matches your doors. With the small foam rollers, that might be the easiest way to get a color match.

Why did you pick the white cabinets, though? I have Tidaholm oak with birch effect boxes and although the boxes are a little lighter than the doors, it is not enough different to bother me.
