Not really meant for kitchen cabinets. They are beautiful and I'm disappointed to return them (especially because of return shipping cost) but with the long attached screw they are not practical. Another reviewer reported cutting and sanding each screw but I'm concerned even if I put in that effort the nut will loosen and the knob will fall with regular use. These are pretty for a dresser. I gave them 3 stars because they are very nice but only for limited types of use.
