Everything You Need to Know About Stacker Cabinets (And Why They’re Worth It)

Stacker Cabinets: The Smart Way to Elevate Your Kitchen

Ever wondered what the newest trend in kitchen cabinet design is? Or maybe you’re looking for a unique upgrade that makes guests go “Wow!” without blowing your renovation budget? Whether you’ve just moved in or are ready for a refresh, stacker cabinets might be the smartest solution.

At Smart Choice Cabinets, stacker cabinets are not just a trending upgrade—they’re our top-selling feature, and for good reason. And that's why in this post we tell you everything you need to know about stacker cabinets.

What Are Stacker Cabinets?

Stacker cabinets are smaller cabinets installed above standard upper cabinets, creating a second row that extends toward the ceiling. Unlike the typical cabinets over your fridge or microwave, stacker cabinets span the entire length of your upper cabinetry, giving your kitchen a high-end, custom look.

They’re perfect for kitchens with tall ceilings but work beautifully in average-height kitchens too. The result? A finished, seamless appearance with added vertical storage—no more dusty dead space above your cabinets.

Why Homeowners Love Them:

• Maximized Storage: Store less-used or seasonal items like party supplies, formal dishes, crockpots—even your favorite hidden candy stash.

• Custom Look, Stock Price: Get the look of high-end custom cabinetry with durable, factory-finished pieces at a fraction of the cost.

• Stylish Personalization: Choose from 21 finishes and 16 door styles, glass fronts, molding, wine racks, or even plate racks.

• Quick Turnaround: Orders typically ship in 15 days or less.

• Easy Installation: No need to move countertops or appliances—just send us a photo for a 3D design rendering.
