Thermofoil cabinets can last anywhere from 10 to 15 years with proper care. These cabinets are made by applying a thin layer of PVC vinyl to MDF or particleboard, providing a durable, moisture-resistant surface. Thermofoil cabinets are a popular, cost-effective option for homeowners looking for a sleek, low-maintenance finish.
However, thermofoil is not as durable as solid wood or plywood. It can peel, chip, or bubble if exposed to excessive heat or moisture, which may shorten its lifespan. Regular maintenance and preventing exposure to high heat sources, such as ovens or direct sunlight, can help extend the life of thermofoil cabinets.
