I was updating my kitchen but had no need for new cabinets. I wanted to change out the hardware. Shopped and saw some cheaper knobs (about 1 dollar cheaper per knob) but the quality was nothing compared to these. These really bring out the kitchen. I ordered 30 knobs total, so at $1 extra per knob, I got a great looking kitchen for an extra $30. Very well worth it, since you're only replacing your knobs once or twice in your lifetime.
