I have Geneva cabinets in my garage but I dont think were talking the same Geneva cabinets mine started life in a Kitchen 40 or 50 years ago 
I'll put up a few pics anyways but I love my cabinets only cost so far was paint about $35.00 with proper thinner and reducer at TSC and counter tops .

I just got off the phone today with Geneva Manufacturing company about the way Sears markets their product. It seems that it is not possible to have the units delivered to the stores. Even though it states on the website that it is "Availible for pick-up at store" in the ad. Talked to Sears themself yesterday and the lady was very helpful in putting in the zip codes of most major cities. I even put in the zip code of the main Sears warehouse in Mantena Ill. Still could not get them to work. I just really hate to pay $100-$150 per piece to get them delivered. Anyone have any ideas?

Hmmm. Get another brand of cabinets? Maybe find a way to buy them directly from Geneva?

I can't compare them to the Geneva's (haven't seen them), but I'm quite happy with my C-Pro's. I'm a HUGE fan of the door storage.
The only thing I found annoying was that the stupid brackets to put on the wall have holes for bolts that do NOT correspond to stud spacing, so I had to screw a 2x4 to the wall through the studs, then use the supplied lag bolts to hold the brackets to the 2x4. I also had to put a 2x4 on the bottom to make them level, BUT the bracket takes up 1/4" on the top side, so I also ripped some 1/4" plywood to put on the lower 2x4 to make it all even (this is me being ****). Oh, and due to the storage in door design, there's a gap between cabinets (only way to make a door that opens), that lets the wall show between the cabinets, which bugged me. I had some diamond tread foam floor walkway material that I cut to fill the gap and put in there, but that's mostly just me being **** again. I didn't like the white strips of wall showing between them.
