Market Position: Premium ($$$)
How It Compares: This tier represents a significant investment in craftsmanship, material superiority, and design flexibility.

How It Compares: At the pinnacle of cabinetry, this tier is characterized by unparalleled material quality, exclusive finishes, and near-limitless customization, including unique architectural designs.
