Cubitac Cabinets Review 2026: Status, Lines, Prices and Alternatives

Cubitac cabinets were a well-known dealer-sold value line: New Jersey-made framed cabinets with plywood boxes and solid wood dovetail drawers, sold in four tiers — Imperial, Prestige, Basic, and Presto — that published dealer quotes put at roughly $3,500 to $6,900 for a 10×10 kitchen. Today the first question about the brand isn't quality or price, it's availability. Cubitac Corp, the New Jersey company behind the line, filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in October 2024; the case was converted to a Chapter 7 liquidation in February 2026, and in June 2026 the company's lender auctioned its assets, including the brand name and website. No new owner has publicly announced plans for the line.

Our cards on the table: we don't sell Cubitac. We're an authorized Fabuwood dealer who also carries US Cabinet Depot, J&K, KCD, and a handful of other lines, and we've designed and quoted kitchens in Cubitac in the past, so we know it well. This page is now written for two readers. If you already own Cubitac cabinets, it covers what they're built from, how to source parts and match doors, and what to do about a warranty problem. If you're shopping now, it explains where the brand stands and which lines we carry sit at the same tiers. The brand details — tiers, construction, colors, last published prices — are kept as a reference for both.

Is Cubitac Still in Business?

Here is what the public record shows, without spin.

• The bankruptcy filing. Cubitac Corp, of Ridgefield, New Jersey, filed a Chapter 11 petition in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District of New Jersey on October 28, 2024 (case 24-20659).
• Conversion to liquidation. The case was converted to Chapter 7 on February 9, 2026, and it is still open under a Chapter 7 trustee (case summary).
• The asset auction. The company's secured lender, Cross River Bank, published notice of a UCC Article 9 foreclosure sale, held June 12, 2026, of assets of Cubitac Corp and Cabitac Corp — including the "Cubitac" brand name, the cubitac.com domain, and inventory and machinery at the Ridgefield facility. The auctioneer's listing shows the lot as sold. No buyer has been publicly named.
• Where things stand now. As of September 2026, cubitac.com is still online, with "Cubitac Inc." in its footer. We haven't found any public statement from the company about orders, production, or warranty coverage, and Yelp lists the Ridgefield Park location as closed.

Put plainly: although the website remains online, we can't confirm that the line can currently be ordered, or that anyone is honoring the warranty. Nor can anyone outside the sale say whether the brand will come back under a new owner — no one has announced plans either way, and we won't guess. If a seller offers you Cubitac today, ask them in writing who is manufacturing the cabinets and who stands behind the warranty before any money changes hands.

What Cubitac Is and How It Was Sold

Cubitac was one of two family-run New Jersey cabinet makers — Fabuwood is the other — that grew by giving contractors and homeowners semi-custom quality at stock-cabinet speed. The two were cross-shopped constantly, which is why we wrote a dedicated Cubitac vs Fabuwood comparison. The company marketed itself under a "For the People" tagline, and the positioning was accurate: a value brand that competed on box construction and price rather than on breadth of door styles or designer accessories.

Like Fabuwood, it didn't sell direct. Cabinets went through a dealer network, which matters now for owners: the dealer who sold your kitchen is usually the first place to go for records, parts, and warranty paperwork. Materials were CARB2 compliant, and the manufacturer stated its cabinets met or exceeded KCMA standards (as distinct from carrying KCMA certification outright — a small but real difference in how the badge was worded).

The Four Tiers: Imperial, Prestige, Basic, and Presto

If you're identifying cabinets you already have, start here. The catalog was organized as a ladder rather than as architecturally different series — you stepped up in door styling and finish depth, not in what the box was made of:

Across the four tiers the brand listed 20-plus colors on 18 door styles. Every tier was framed construction; there was no true frameless line — Presto gave you the slab-door look of a European kitchen on a framed box, which is not the same thing as full-access construction. That matters if you're adding cabinets to an existing Cubitac kitchen: whatever you add should be framed too, or the reveals won't line up. Our framed vs frameless guide explains the difference.

Construction and Hardware

Whatever happens to the company, the box was not where Cubitac cut corners, and that's good news for anyone living with these cabinets. Plywood boxes, solid wood dovetail drawer boxes, and soft-close doors and drawers were standard across the range. There was no builder-grade box; stepping down from Imperial to Basic changed door styling and finish depth, not what the cabinet was made of. That's a cleaner story than some competitors tell, where the budget tier quietly switches to particleboard sides.

The specifics: the brand built with ½″ plywood sides and backs and ¾″ shelving — solid numbers for the class, and the same plywood story Fabuwood's framed Allure series tells. Hardware is where the tiers parted ways. Blum® soft-close hinges and undermount slides were reserved for the Imperial line; Prestige, Basic, and Presto used unbranded soft-close mechanisms.

For an owner, that split decides how easy repairs are. Blum mechanisms are rated for hundreds of thousands of cycles, carry a stamp you can read, and replacement parts are sold everywhere, so an Imperial kitchen is straightforward to keep running. On the other three tiers, pull the failing hinge or slide, note its overlay, mounting style, and length, and match a generic equivalent — or use the repair as a reason to upgrade that opening to Blum. We've written about why Blum hardware is worth the money if you want the long version. Either way, the dovetail drawer box underneath the slide is the real thing and rarely the part that fails.

Assembled, Not Flat-Pack

Cubitac shipped its cabinets factory-assembled through its dealers rather than flat-packed — the same model Fabuwood uses, and one of the reasons the two were compared as a pair rather than against RTA value brands. Factory assembly means square boxes and consistent fastening, which is part of why these kitchens tend to hold up. Some dealer listings described ready-to-assemble options on certain tiers, so if you're unsure what you have, look for cam-lock fittings inside the box.

If you're weighing the two approaches for a new kitchen, our RTA vs pre-assembled guide walks through the trade-offs, and our pre-assembled buying guide covers what to check when assembled boxes arrive.

Cubitac Cabinet Colors: Latte and Custom Paint

If you arrived here from a search, there's a good chance it was for a specific finish — usually because you're matching or extending a kitchen you already have. The names people look for most, by a wide margin, are the Latte finishes — Madison Latte and Dover Latte. "Latte" was the brand's name for a milky, café-with-cream light brown: wood warmth without darkening the room. The brand named finishes door-first — Madison is the Imperial shaker, and Madison Latte is that door in the latte tone — so, as far as the naming tells us, Dover Latte is the same tone on a different door.

We don't have a verified list of every stock finish the brand offered, and we'd rather say that than reproduce a third-party swatch chart we can't vouch for. What we can tell you is how the palette was organized: a stock range of 20-plus colors on 18 door styles, heavy on white and gray shakers, with the Latte tones as the standout non-neutrals — and behind that, a custom-color program that let dealers order cabinets in thousands of paint colors. That program is also why exact matches are hard now: a custom-color Cubitac kitchen may not correspond to any named finish at all.

If you're matching, work from a physical door, not a photo — screens flatten these finishes badly, and a latte that looks caramel on your phone may read gray-beige in a north-facing kitchen. Among the lines we carry, Fabuwood's Echo door supports paint-matching to Sherwin-Williams and Benjamin Moore colors, which is the closest route to a painted match; for stained finishes, a deliberate contrast (a different-color island, say) often looks better than a near-miss. Our guide to evaluating cabinet samples explains how to compare a sample in your own light, and our brown cabinet guide maps the latte tone against honey, toffee, and darker browns, including the stocked stains we carry that bracket it.

What Cubitac Cost: Last Published Prices

These are the last ranges we verified against published dealer quotes, in August 2026. Because we can't confirm the line can currently be ordered, treat them as a benchmark — for an old quote you're holding, or for pricing a replacement kitchen — not as a price you can buy at today.

For a standard 10×10 kitchen — two walls, about 20 linear feet, cabinets only — published dealer quotes generally ran from about $3,500 at the Presto and Basic end to roughly $6,900 for Imperial in a popular door style. Per linear foot, that's roughly $175–$350, the low end of the value-import class in our market-wide cabinet cost guide: a step above IKEA's $150–$300 and a little under Fabuwood's $220–$450.

The table shows where the brand sat. Its floor was lower than Fabuwood's; between comparable tiers — Prestige against Fusion or Luna, Imperial against Echo — the gap usually narrowed to a few hundred dollars on a full kitchen, with the Fabuwood side including Blum soft-close hardware as standard. If the goal is simply the lowest defensible number on a plywood box, a value RTA line like US Cabinet Depot now covers the ground Presto did. Our 10×10 pricing guide shows how to line quotes up fairly, and our cost estimator gives a retail ballpark for the lines we carry in about a minute.

The Warranty After the Bankruptcy

Before the bankruptcy, the warranty was already the brand's messiest area: the manufacturer's site advertised a limited lifetime warranty under its "For the People" pledge, while older documents with five-year terms still circulated on dealer sites and in spec books. Now there's a bigger question on top of that one. We can't confirm that anyone is currently honoring Cubitac warranty claims, and there has been no public statement saying either way.

If you have a problem with cabinets you already own, here's the sensible order of operations:

1. Document it. Photos, dates, and a short description of what failed and when you noticed.
2. Gather your paperwork. The invoice, the dealer's name, the tier and door style, and whatever warranty document you received at purchase.
3. Start with the dealer who sold the cabinets. Some dealers keep parts on hand or will help with repairs regardless of the manufacturer's status.
4. For claims against Cubitac Corp itself, the company's estate is being administered by the Chapter 7 trustee in case 24-20659 (U.S. Bankruptcy Court, D.N.J.); the case docket lists the trustee's contact details. A bankruptcy attorney can tell you whether filing a claim makes sense for you.

Keep in mind what was never covered: labor is excluded on essentially every cabinet warranty at this level, and hairline paint cracking at joints is treated as normal material movement by nearly every manufacturer in this class. Most everyday fixes — a hinge, a slide, a door adjustment — are cheaper to handle directly than to pursue as a claim.

If You Already Own a Cubitac Kitchen

Nothing in the court case changes what's hanging on your walls. Plywood boxes and dovetail drawers don't depend on the company that built them, and a well-installed Cubitac kitchen should keep doing its job. The practical issues are parts and matching:

• Hinges and slides. Imperial cabinets use Blum, which any hardware supplier stocks. On the other tiers, match the existing part by overlay, mounting style, and length, as described in the construction section.
• A damaged door or drawer front. A local cabinet shop or refinisher can usually build a shaker or slab door to your measurements and paint or stain it to match; bring an existing door, not a photo.
• Adding cabinets. Stay framed, match the box depth and face-frame width, and treat color as the hard part. A contrasting island or a separate run in a different finish often looks intentional where a near-match looks like a mistake.
• Keeping records. File the invoice, dealer name, tier, door style, and any warranty document together. They're what a dealer, a trustee, or a future buyer of your home will ask for.

If you're planning a larger change — a remodel of the rest of the room, or replacing a run that's beyond repair — send us a photo and measurements. We can't supply Cubitac parts, but we can tell you honestly whether a line we carry will sit comfortably next to what you have.

If You're Holding a Cubitac Quote

If you received a Cubitac quote before the bankruptcy, or a seller is offering the brand now, don't pay a deposit until these are settled in writing:

1. Who is manufacturing the cabinets — the company name, not just the brand name on the quote.
2. Who warranties them — the dated warranty document, naming the company that stands behind it.
3. A delivery date range for your specific tier, door, and finish — or confirmation that the cabinets are already in the seller's stock.
4. How replacement doors and parts would be supplied in year three, if you need them.
5. A same-layout quote from a line with confirmed availability — same tier, same footage, assembled if the Cubitac quote is assembled — so you know what the price difference is actually buying.

If you already paid a deposit toward a Cubitac order that hasn't arrived, talk to the dealer you paid first; if the money went to Cubitac Corp, the bankruptcy case is where creditor claims are handled. Our broader guide to choosing a cabinet brand covers the questions to ask any manufacturer.

How the Brand Stacked Up

For owners weighing what they have, and shoppers wondering what they missed, here's our scorecard of the line as it was sold.

Its strengths:

• Entry price. A plywood-box, dovetail-drawer kitchen in the mid-$3,000s for a 10×10 was a real number, and Presto delivered it.
• Custom color. Thousands of paint colors through the dealer was a program most brands at this price didn't have.
• An honest box. No particleboard tier hiding at the bottom of the range.

Its weak spots:

• Warranty clarity. Lifetime in the marketing, five years in some of the paperwork — even before the bankruptcy.
• Hardware below Imperial. Blum was Imperial-only; the other three tiers used unbranded soft-close.
• No frameless option. True full-access architecture didn't exist in the catalog. Fabuwood's Illume and Ovela, and US Cabinet Depot's Palermo and Torino, do.
• Selection depth. 20-plus colors on 18 doors was fine; it wasn't Fabuwood's 55-plus, and there was no equivalent to KCD's rift-oak and walnut Oslo look.

Today one factor outweighs every line above: we can't confirm the cabinets can be ordered or that the warranty is being honored. Until that changes, it isn't a brand we'd point a new kitchen toward.

Shopping Now: Comparable Lines We Carry

If you came here comparing brands, these are lines we carry and can quote today that sit at the same tiers Cubitac did. Send the layout from an old Cubitac quote and we'll price the same kitchen, so you have a real number to hold it against. All of these ship nationwide; we design and quote, but we don't install (in New Jersey, installation is available through our sister company, Captivating Construction Group).

For the line-by-line, see our Cubitac vs Fabuwood comparison, plus our KCD review and our Fabuwood review for the brands themselves. None of these replicates Cubitac's open-ended custom-color program, and we'd rather say so than pretend stock colors are the same thing. Fabuwood's palette is curated rather than open-ended, and the Echo door's paint-matching is the closest we get.

Contractors and trade buyers should know that every line above carries trade pricing through Captivating Pro. For a quote, send measurements to our free 3D design service: a designer replies within 1 business day, and the full 3D design and itemized quote follow within 24–48 hours.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Cubitac still in business?

Cubitac Corp, the New Jersey company behind the brand, filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in October 2024; the case was converted to a Chapter 7 liquidation in February 2026 (U.S. Bankruptcy Court, D.N.J., No. 24-20659). In June 2026 the company's lender auctioned its assets, including the Cubitac brand name and website, and no new owner has publicly announced plans for the line. Although cubitac.com remains online, we can't confirm that the cabinets can currently be ordered or that the warranty is being honored.

Can I still buy Cubitac?

We can't confirm that you can. If a seller offers them, get in writing which company is manufacturing the cabinets and who warranties them before paying a deposit — and get a same-layout quote from a line with confirmed availability to compare.

Is my Cubitac warranty still valid?

We can't confirm that anyone is honoring Cubitac warranty claims. Keep your invoice, dealer name, and warranty document together, start with the dealer who sold the cabinets, and note that claims against Cubitac Corp itself are handled through the Chapter 7 case, No. 24-20659 in the District of New Jersey.

Where can I get replacement parts or doors for a Cubitac kitchen?

Imperial-tier cabinets use Blum hinges and slides, which any hardware supplier carries; other tiers used unbranded soft-close parts you can match by overlay, mounting style, and length. For doors, a local cabinet shop can build a shaker or slab door to your measurements and finish it to match an existing door.

Was Cubitac good quality?

For the price, yes. Plywood boxes, solid wood dovetail drawer boxes, and soft-close doors and drawers were standard across all four tiers, with no particleboard builder tier at the bottom. Blum hardware was Imperial-only.

Where was Cubitac made?

The company was based in Ridgefield, New Jersey and assembled its cabinets there from largely imported components. (Fabuwood, by comparison, says it assembles in the USA from a combination of U.S. and globally sourced components.) Materials were CARB2 compliant, and the manufacturer stated its cabinets met or exceeded KCMA standards.

What were the Cubitac lines or collections?

Four value tiers. Imperial was the premium line (Madison shaker, Bergen flat panel, Montclair recessed panel, Artisan slab); Prestige was the mid-range shaker; Basic was the entry tier; and Presto was a budget modern-slab collection. All were framed construction.

How much did a Cubitac kitchen cost?

The last published dealer quotes we verified for a 10×10 kitchen ran from about $3,500 in Presto or Basic to roughly $6,900–$7,000 in Imperial, or about $175–$350 per linear foot. Comparable Fabuwood kitchens run $4,400–$9,000, and a value RTA line like US Cabinet Depot's Shaker starts around $2,900.

Was Cubitac RTA or pre-assembled?

Pre-assembled. It shipped factory-assembled cabinets through its dealers rather than flat-pack, though some dealer listings mentioned ready-to-assemble options on certain tiers.

Does Captivating Cabinets sell Cubitac?

No. We've quoted and designed with the brand in the past, but we don't carry it and can't supply Cubitac parts. We do carry Fabuwood, US Cabinet Depot, J&K, KCD, and several other lines that sit at the same tiers, and we're glad to quote your layout in any of them.
