Particle Board vs. Plywood Shootout
I am having quite an exchange, over at This Old House Discussions, on the relative merits of 65 lb. particle board, plywood and MDF.
Take a look.

I too agree with you Peggy.
ReplyDeleteI prefer particleboard over MDF as it is much lighter (great when installing cabinets) and the dust generated is not so fine as MDF.
There is no problem with strength as all loads on kitchen cabinets are vertical (bar shelves of course!)
