I was wondering the other day why a frame and panel design is used on cabinet doors, but solid wood is usually preferred for drawer fronts. (I know we all have seen frame & panels used as drawer fronts, but many purists howl at the sight.) Why is this? In our kitchen, we have a lot of drawers, and some of the fronts are as large as the smaller doors, so it must not be a size issue. And with euro hardware and overlay doors, it doesn't seem like wood movement is the issue either. Can anyone shed some light on this/ give opinions? Thanks.
