Thinking of renovating kitchen. Want to know your experience and suggestions.?
Looked at replacing cabinets but the time, cost and frustrationg of a couple of months seems too negative and having to find a way to prepare meals, etc. Have to find someone to remove old cabinets since the place I like for new cabinets does not do anything put install new cabinets. Then replacing the counter. And finally having a plumber come to hook up gas stove, garbage disposal, and faucet.
Wonder about resurfacing or just replacing the cabinet fronts and staining, etc., the prime base of the cabinet.

I hear you. I just moved into a older home and do not have the money right now to do a major overhaul in the kitchen. I am going to darken my cabinets from med oak to a dark stain (you can buy it at lowes) and put on new hard ware (puuting one new hardware makes a big difference we have already done this to 2 bathrooms). You could try painting them with a high gloss enamel. Just doing that will make them look new and not cost nearly as much. My counter tops are white ceramic so I will just live with them for a while. You could replace the counter tops pretty easily by doing measurement and ordering them at a home center. I have done that before and it is pretty easy to do. You can also order you sink and replace it at the same time. Paint the kitchen a new color. If you have room for an island put one in. This should brighten up your kitchen so you can enjoy it for a couple of years and not spend thousands doing an over haul.
