When you find the manufacturer of the cabinets, you can call around and see who carries that line. For example, our cabinets are made by Homecrest. Bailey, Abshier, and Munz all carried Homecrest when we were looking.

We bought a few items from Abshier who delivered them promptly. Bailey had a long lead time and high price. Munz had the best price plus they had the cabinets in two weeks. They have a workshop located in an office/warehouse center behind Bargains 'n Treasures. Also, I was able to go on line to Homecrest and pick out the exact cabinets, molding, fillers, etc. that we needed before we ordered.

We saw an island someone had put in their Lantana. I think they bought a 24" deep 30" wide base unit to match their cabinetry and put it on casters. Can't remember if it was a drawer or door unit. It was very attractive.
