New Pro series Newage cabinets

These new cabinets are awesome. I love the white.

I'm in the middle of installing the black Performance Plus cabinets in my garage right now. Had I known these were going to be available at the same price as price as the plus, I would have bought them instead. I know mine will look great, but still kicking myself.

They look really nice I found a few reviews on them and people seem happy. This set would be perfect for my single car motorcycle garage.

Apparently shipping not a strong point.

 

[Temaweaver]

Shipping seems to be hit or miss. They put the smaller cabinets in the tall locker. The one locker I received was packed tight with foam. The other had very little foam and no blocking to keep them from moving. This set had damage. Newage seems to take care of their customers well. The only problem is waiting for replacements.

No shelving inside the 'actual' door, ideal for cans / bottles and the like, for that price ?

Don't think that's a great deal, for that reason alone.

I'm really fighting the urge to pick these up....but kind of want to make my own? Costco has this 8 piece a little cheaper.

The dead area between the bottom cabs and the tall ones on the outside is kind of cheesy. There's really nothing it's good for, and it just looks like a good place for stuff to fall down in and accumulate.

If you're interested in building your own set, check out my build your own page at ShopStorageCabinets.com.

The new cabinets are called Pro 3.0 and they have some nice improvements to the older cabinets. There's a corner wall cabinet now, a 15" wide tall locker and a multi-purpose base cabinet.

Here's a short video on the new line.

Or you could put them together any way you want. Move the lockers together and push the workbench up to the lockers. The units are modular put them where you want. The new workbenches they are selling are 66" long. The cabinets are 28" apiece, so the area you see in the photo is 84".

I just started looking at these myself. I'm going to have to do some more research but they have at least caught my attention. And the guy in the above video review clip must have $10k worth of these cabinets!!!

 

[mfa81]

I'm also really tempted to buying one of these sets, newage has a deal on one similar to costco but comes with 84" worktop instead of the bench which makes the entire set to fit together nicely!

I just built a new workbench in my garage and it's killing myself to get rid of it or move it to my shed! but the new age 3.0 it indeed really nice!

anybody thinks the tool storage is enough to no need a toolbox? Looks to me that unless you go custom you won't have enough tool drawers!

I ordered four of the pro cabinets in gray. I was expecting 7-10 days delivery and got a call in about 3 or 4. Nicely packaged. Put them up together in a row. Really like the look and the quality. Man, they hold a lot.

 

[retfr8flyr]

I have had the older model Diamond Pro series cabinets for several years now.





I have another section just like these on the other side of my garage. I have been very happy with them. They have held up very well and offered me just the right compromise between the cheaper, lighter weight, cabinets and the much more expensive cabinets. I would recommend them without reservation.

 

[ishiboo]

Wish they offered "white" as in all white - not a little white with mostly gray.

 

[W_KY]

These look really nice. Is there a place I can put my hands on these besides Costco? We don't have a Costco locally.

NewAge sells online only. No store to do the touchy feelly thing. No matter who you buy from the products come from the same regional warehouses.

The best reviews are right here on garage journal. Click on search and enter NewAge Cabinets.

If you drive through Jackson, TN - you can look at mine

I have ordered 6 of the Bold 3 series lockers so far, and every one I have had to return due to shipping damage..... VERY frustrating. I need two of them to complete my garage (they match the existing ones I got a few years ago).

NewAge is great at replacing damaged cabinets. When you order one or two they tend to ship FedEx, not the best for handling cabinets. When you order a set of cabinets they come out on a skid and are shrink rapped together.

I truly believe fork lift drivers are under trained and over worked.

 

[Scud67]

These have all been UPS shipped. Sides caved in, top and bottom corners crushed. I am getting tired of returning them to the local HD store. I am going to give it one more shot, after that I think I need to find another option....

 

[pinkerton]

My performance plus' came packed in each locker. No damage, but had some paint issues on the sides - they took care of me.

 

[Scud67]

I have NO issues with NewAge - it is the shipping that is doing the damage. The ONLY place I have found the Bold 3 locker (15 x 18 x 77) in on HD online. I wish I could find it elsewhere, but it looks like they are the only ones that carry it - or at least offer it.

yup agree!!!

 

[Fur_252]

I really like the cabinets ...only one problems for me is the bench is 35" tall, I'm 6'4" think I would be bending over a lot!

Moved into a new home and have been piecing my NewAge Pro 3.0 set together over the last month. Finally got everything together. No issues in shipping and the cabinet quality is top notch. These are very heavy cabinets with soft close doors and smooth roller action on the drawers. The set I got came with an 84" bamboo top that is meant to span the 2 base cabinets with a blank space underneath in the middle but I cut it down to 56" because I have a sink on the left side. The Platinum/White color scheme is stunning in person.

I did a Racedeck freeflow floor to match. Love the floor as well as it's super easy to keep clean. Also have a Harbor Freight 44 and Uline workstation on the other side of the garage.

Try Garage Organization. I ordered some separate bases from them. They did not offer them on their web site when I ordered them, but they were able to get them and then added them to their site.

Those look awesome. I don't think they would stay looking that good in my shop for long, but wow they look nice when they are shiny and clean.

Got mine from Home Depot who had the best price and took a 10% coupon I had. They came packed extremely well. Thick cardboard around the locker, braced at the corners, base and top cabinets inside braced with foam and everything strapped and shrink wrapped. Took quite a while unpacking. No matter the retailer they come from a central warehouse if you're the first person to receive them. Open box / returns sold as new are probably an issue.

Thanks, I hit them with some Adams H2O gloss & guard which is great stuff. You could throw a bucket of grease on them and it won't stick. Damp rag cleans anything up and you reapply about every 3 months.

Mount your base cabinets to the wall with lag bolts.

Sounds easy to me.

My bench is sitting at 38". The 35.5"H base cabinets come with max 2" adjustable leveling legs then you have a 1.5" top so 39" max.

My experience with the Pro 3.0 was similar to Stang, my review is here: http://www.garagejournal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=341000

As for bench height, due to the floor inconsistencies and adjustments to keep good gaps on the base cabinet connections my top height ranges 37 to 37 1/2". I could go a bit higher but this works for me.

 

[bjsbuds]

I have several Pro 3.0 white and gray cabinets. Absolutely love them. They fill the entire back wall of the new garage, that is 36' wide.

A few observations:
- Shipping is poor. My stainless counter tops were damaged. NewAge made it right.
- Stainless counter tops - would not recommend. Dent easily, and show so many marks. Order the wood tops instead. I plan to replace them with wood countertops from ikea.
- I bought the Sports Locker only because I needed something to fit that exact width to complete my wall of cabinets. Ends up being a great cabinet and I wish I had more.
- Wish the wall cabinets base was flush, so I could see what is in the cabinets. Not a fan of the lip that is about 1-2" above floor of wall cabinet.
- Love the soft close drawers.
- They include so many awesome accessories that provide options to fit your needs.
- The leveling legs are terrific.
- The installation hardware is plentiful.

Have $5,200 invested in these cabinets. Would I do it again? YES

Will attach photos soon.

If you end up swapping the countertops with Ikea, I suggest their Karlby series. It's almost a dead match for the new age bamboo top and very good quality. I just built my kids a desk in their study with that top spanning two base / file cabinets. 8' x 25" x 1.5" top is about $130.

NewAge usually asks the customer to depose of the damaged cabinet. NewAge does all the shipping and warehousing of their products. They transfer cabinets from their warehouses to regional shipping companies. When they send out a replacement and it's through a regional shipper, the shipper would charge NewAge for the return shipping. So the cost of returning something they would scrap isn't that interesting to NewAge.

 

[torchred04]

I just wanted to jump in and ask if anyone has reviewed the Newage Pro 3.0 series workbench and how is the quality compared to say the Gladiator workbench(which from all I can read and hear its beefy)

I am interested in a newage set but wondering if I stay away from the workbench included sets like below and opt for just the worktop set.

https://ca.shopnewage.com/products/pro-8pc-mobile

https://ca.shopnewage.com/collections/pro-3-0-series/products/pro-6pc-mobile#

I am trying to fit cabinets around a 48" window so the sets with two big lockers included aren't going to work unless I cover my window up.

Any input you guys can share would be appreciated.
