Main Line Kitchen Design's unique business model allows our customers to work with the most experienced designers and get the most competitive kitchen cabinet pricing. How can Main Line Kitchen Design offer both the best kitchen designs along with the most competitive kitchen cabinet pricing? Our expert kitchen designers meet customers by appointment only in our offices, instead of a large showroom open to the general public. We display the cabinet lines we sell under glass countertops so customers can see how our cabinetry is constructed.
Main Line Kitchen Design is a unique business model! We are a group of skilled Kitchen Designers each with many years of experience planning kitchens around the Delaware Valley. And we are cabinet dealers for eight nationally distributed cabinet lines much like traditional showrooms.
While most design appointments still are done via Zoom. Going over 3D designs and making changes while screen sharing via Zoom is now a regular part of our design process. We were surprised at how easy using Zoom is, and appointments have actually been shorter and more effective using it. Making design changes in our offices where there are more distractions can make appointments slightly less focused.
We'll answer any questions you might have. And give you an approximation of what you are likely to spend on your kitchen after asking you a few detailed questions. After we talk and if you'd like to proceed, we charge you a $150 measure and design deposit. One of our expert kitchen designers will then schedule an appointment to discuss your project and to measure your home. At your second 2 hour appointment our designer will go over 3D plans, make changes with you, and price out your project in greater detail.
The Main Line Kitchen Design business model enables us to give our customer's better designs, and better made cabinetry for slightly less than the cost at other showrooms and even home centers. Because we use an office to display our 8 different brands of cabinets with all of their door styles and finishes and do not have complete displays of kitchen vignettes, this saves on overhead.

We love our new kitchen! Being young and having no experience ever having a home renovation originally made the idea of re-doing our kitchen kind of scary, since we weren't sure if we would fall for "hard sells" or contractors cutting corners. Working with Chris and MLKD was the best decision we could have made! Chris designed a kitchen that maximized all of the space in our small kitchen, and made it feel giant.

I'm very happy with the quality of work that the contractors produced as well, and it was nice having them work with Chris directly and knowing exactly what to do to re-create Chris's designs. Overall, the experience of working with MLKD was great, and we'll be contacting them again for when we want to re-do our bathroom :

We worked with Chris Rossetti and he helped us get our dream kitchen! He was absolutely fabulous! We had a lot of non-traditional ideas and he was so supportive of our creativity and style and helped us figure out a way to make our kitchen design both beautiful and functional. It could not have turned out any better. Absolutely recommend using main line kitchen and working with Chris!

Lauren did an amazing job of helping us create our dream kitchen. She was extremely detail oriented and an excellent problem solver. Upon her initial visit to my house she suggested opening our kitchen to the rarely used dining room. This relatively easy change helped us to finally use the 40 percent of our downstairs (dining room and formal living room) that we never used for the 13 years we had been living in our house. MLKD offered several very good options for cabinets but not so many that the decision was overwhelming.

We ended up using Brighton for the quality and semicustom options and couldn't be more pleased with them. There were a few small issues that were resolved quickly by both Brighton and MLKD and we were more than satisfied. A shout out to Ed Sossich who handled payments and deliveries as well, he was a pleasure to deal with and always got back to me quickly with answers to my questions. I love our new kitchen's look and functionality, it's truly been life changing!

I reached out to this company today to request information for a potential kitchen renovation by filling out their online form. I was contacted within 10 minutes of clicking "submit, " which surprised me by a gentleman with a thick NYC accent. I spoke to the gentleman who said he had pulled up my home's Redfin listing and said that he noticed many "illegal" things in our kitchen.

I was taken aback by this, since our very thorough inspector did not say anything in our kitchen was "illegal." (Besides, what he was pointing out was not "illegal." In my opinion, this was a scare tactic used to pressure me to use his company). He then asked what were were looking to do, and I began describing our plans for the project. He then rudely interrupted me, indicated that kitchen designers "know better" than customers, that they are the "experts, " and that they would design my kitchen for me and then it would be better than what I wanted.

I tried to explain that we own an older home, wanted to ensure that the renovation made sense in a historical context, and that we did not want cookie cutter. He insulted me by saying that most customers don't actually know what they want and if I wanted to direct the design plans, then project would inevitably go wrong. I'm not sure if this man thought he was "selling" his company, but he did sell me on one thing - this was a company that I should stay away from. In my opinion, did not treat me with a basic level of respect that all customers deserve and I was very upset by the call.

We had a terrific experience with Ed under very difficult circumstances. Our house was destroyed by flooding from Hurricane Ida and we had to gut the whole first floor. We were in temporary housing with our two little kids and dog, which was not ideal, so just wanted to move as quickly as possible in the rebuild. We called MLKD and Ed was out here the next day, with a beautiful new kitchen design shortly afterward.

He held our hand through every step of the process, including getting us set up with a fantastic contractor (Rich Werner) for the install. We could not be happier with the outcome - thanks so much to Ed, Rich, and the MLKD team!

I love my new kitchen! I worked with Paul & his design for my space is fantastic. My dark, dreary old kitchen and dining room has been transformed into a wonderful space for my family. He was so helpful throughout the whole process. All of his suggestions were right on the mark. I am at the far end of Main Line's service area and when I struggled to find a contractor, Paul recommended one who has done a great job. It's been a very positive experience from start to finish!

We loved our experience with Chris Rossetti and Main Line Kitchen design. We remodeled our kitchen in 2021 and Chris was the first person we contacted. He not only helped us pick out cabinets but helped us visualize our new kitchen layout with 3D drawings and expert advice. From there, Chris really became our overall project coordinator. He helped us pick countertops and found us a reliable contractor to do the work. I don't think our kitchen would have ever been completed without Chris' assistance. Can't recommend Main Line Kitchen design enough.

Great service by Ed. Our kitchen old design was not functional and Ed proposed a design which opened up the space. Mainline suggested a few contractors and we went with Walt Kaufman. The crew was very professional and did a wonderful job translating the design into reality. All in all, I had a great experience for our first major renovation project in our house.

Gosh, where can I even start. Lauren, my designer, is relentless with her work ethic. Her attention to detail is second to none. She took my vague ideas and made them into a fantastic kitchen. We went through so many layouts until I gave it the green light. For that I thank her for her patience. My small galley kitchen in Manayunk was a challenge, trust me. I hope once you read this you decide to request her. She won't disappoint, a true professional with an exceptional vision.

Ed Sossich did a great job helping us plan the renovation of our kitchen. We are very pleased with the cabinets and quartz countertop from Main Line Kitchen Design. Ed addressed questions promptly, and took care of any issues immediately. We are so pleased with our new kitchen.

Renovating our extremely dated and very inefficiently laid-out kitchen was a dream of ours since we moved in 16 years ago. We wanted to remove walls and really change the space and planning it always seemed so overwhelming. One day, I came across Main Line Kitchen Design. I highly recommend this service and especially our designer, Chris. Chris came out to look at the space, he listened to our ideas, threw in a few ideas of his own, and a few weeks and some Zoom calls later, we had a plan to work with. Chris was very thoughtful in his design.

We came with an idea of what we wanted, and somehow, Chris made it all work. There is not an inch of wasted space in our new kitchen; the layout is wonderful and it's a pleasure to cook now. Chris helped us through every step of this process. He provided guidance for all kinds of things-- trends, appliances, cabinet inserts-- he was a great resource.

It didn't end there, either. Chris helped us find a contractor to complete the plans, and he personally supervised our cabinet delivery. When we had an issue with our countertop availability (we chose a vendor that wasn't on the list-our mistake), Chris worked with a supplier to get our counter measured and installed. Main Line Kitchen Design made this process as simple as possible. Chris is a great listener and really had a vision for our space. We are thrilled with how well it turned out!

We worked with Ed from Main Line Kitchen Design and could not be happier with how our kitchen turned out. After going to a general contractor on our own, we were disappointed with how high the quote was for what we were asking for. When we found Ed, he gave us the same cabinets at a lower cost. As for the design itself, Ed was the only person to suggest using a wall that (at the time) had no cabinetry.

That suggestion ended up giving us more counter space and more storage, and it's something we would have never thought of on our own. He prioritized function, and kept our opinions in mind when helping us design our kitchen. He even set us up with an amazing contractor who we now want for all of our future home projects. Even during the renovation, we ran into some issues with the cabinet doors getting scuffed, but Ed was able to quickly replace them. I'd recommend Main Line Kitchen Design to anyone looking for a kitchen remodel at a fair price!

Paul went above and beyond what a normal kitchen designer would do. The installer he recommended was also excellent and detail oriented.

Paul found mistakes that our architect made that saved us a fortune and the design he came up with was something no one else thought of.

Paul was the designer on my kitchen renovation at my beach house. He was very knowledgeable not just about color cabinets and countertops but more importantly about layout considerations, space planning, and functionality. As a consumer it is easy to get excited about trying to put the perfect magazine kitchen into your home; Paul does a great job discussing how to obtain that same look within your kitchen blue print and keep you from making functional mistakes. He has a good vision for identifying how you will live in your new kitchen and what is needed to make that happen.

Paul from Main Line Kitchen Design was truly great. He did three kitchens for me. Each design was better than I could have imagined. He helped me choose the best cabinet style for the application and my budget. I would highly recommend Paul and Main Line Kitchen Design.

MLKD designed a terrific kitchen for me which opened up the existing space and made it far more aesthetically pleasing and functional. My new kitchen is light-filled, sleek, and well-organized. With the terrific pricing on cabinets purchased through MLKD and Paul’s superb advice concerning appliance and countertop options, the project ended up costing a fraction of what I had originally anticipated and included many features I thought were out of my price range.

Moreover, Paul didn’t just hand off a design but worked with my contractors to make sure everything arrived and was installed according to plan. I would recommend MLKD unconditionally!

My wife and I hired Main Line Kitchen Design to completely redesign the kitchen of our new home. From the first meeting, Paul has been fantastic. He’s diligent, very attention oriented and extremely knowledgeable. Within 48 hours, we had the first renderings of what our space could look like; two meetings later, the design was finalized and the cabinets were ordered.

One of the things that impressed us most was Paul’s ability to understand our budget and find creative ways to get us within it. The final cost of our kitchen design ended up at 50% of the first quote, as each time we met, we fine tuned the design and stripped out elements that we felt we didn’t need. Paul was very good at removing “nice to have” items and design features (such as an expensive back plate on our island, a more expensive, but same looking crown moulding, etc.), which allowed us to reduce the price, while still creating our dream kitchen.

The end result is a space that blows us away every single morning. It really does look like something from a home design magazine spread. We really were blown away with the quality of service Main Line Kitchen Design provided and whole heartedly recommend them. Don’t consider anyone else, pick up the phone and call Paul today!
