Your dining room has become your home office, your home office has become a makeshift classroom, your bathroom is seeing more fallout than the janitorial staff at an elementary school, and no part of your home resembles the abode you used to love.

But you have the power to change all that, and the team at Northeast Factory Direct can help.

“With so much out of our control these days, people are looking for ways to take charge at home and really make their interior spaces work better for them,” says Angelo Lardomita, lead kitchen designer for NEFD. “Many people are surprised to learn we can design spaces for our stunning semi-custom cabinets in other parts of the house besides the kitchen. In fact, bathrooms are our other big thing, followed by home offices, recreation spaces like the basement, mudrooms, laundry rooms—you name it.”

Designing “That” Space

“Our cabinets sell for 60-70 percent less than comparable cabinets and, in addition to price, we regularly beat the competition with our service and installation,” Angelo states. “When it comes to maximizing the return on an investment in your home, we can make a couple hundred dollars spent translate into a couple thousand saved.”

Part of the value here is that NEFD employs top kitchen designers who can maximize the space you have in, say, an alcove, and turn it into something that’s beautiful and functional.

“We can find a way to carve out space in a lot of creative ways,” Angelo says.

The bonus is that in addition to having NEFD design your new space, you can also have them do the installation for a true one-stop shopping experience.

Free Stuff!

Here’s how NEFD takes your dollars further.

The complete design, 3-D elevations and in-home measurements are just a few of the freebies you’ll get when you shop NEFD for solid wood cabinets with raised or recessed door panels, and 75 different door/drawer styles and color combinations from which to choose. Here are the rest:

• Door knobs and drawer pulls – free;

• Design service – free;

• Design to take with you without a commitment – free;

• Upgrade to all-wood construction, solid maple dovetail drawers, steel under mount full-extension guides, soft-close doors and drawers, and paint, stain and finish options of your choosing – free.

Kitchens Starting at $1,899

If your kitchen is still the hub of pandemic activity, maybe it’s time to reconfigure that space to accommodate more at-home usage by family members.

“Our basic L-shaped kitchen starts at just $1,899, but most kitchens average about $5,500. And at that price, you’re getting all of the bells and whistles, like a pull-out trash cabinet, roll-out trays, crown molding and more. At other places, those things are expensive add-ons. No way could you get them into a $5,500 kitchen,” Angelo says. “And our cabinets have the look of custom and semi-custom styles. The difference is we offer them at a fraction of the price others are selling them. And we don’t just sell them in standard sizes.”

Buy Now, Pay Later

NEFD offers zero percent financing along with its expert design service and exclusive-to-NEFD tradesmen on the job, so if you’d like to invest in home furnishings, a hot tub or any of the other below-retail goodies the store sells, you can do that, instead, and pay for your kitchen over time.
