So I just found out that Dean sold Saber cabinets to some new company. Sad to say they have taken their pricing up to premium cabinet prices so be aware. I tried getting one last cabinet to finish my wall and literally with shipping (which they now have horrible rates) was over 1/3 of the price of my entire last order. Oh well I guess I will be doing without but wanted to make folks aware I would steer away from Saber. They are not worth the premium money.

Prices went up because of tariffs before the company was sold then went up further after the sale. I still think they are a decent value. What else is out there the competes in their price range? The big boys (lista, moduline) are way more. Even sonic is a good bit more.

Looked like ‘by 34%’. Doesn’t feel good I’m sure, but it was low.... you guys are still doing okay. no income tax and property tax about half what most Texas counties run. +Nashville and the smokies!

You sir are a very organized individual. And I think contrast works better than "match"!!

What are you guys doing to cool down your garages in the hot summer? I have a couple of heating units in my garage, but no air conditioning. My garage is close to 2000 sf, with capacity for 9 cars and 6 cars in it. To make the pandemic livable, we're using the extra garage space to allow my daughter to have her friends over with the garage doors open and maintaining social distancing.
