Shoutout to the guy who recommended using plywood sheets for cabinet backing instead of hardboard

I spent 12 years using thin hardboard that would warp after a season of humidity changes. Switched to 1/4 inch plywood on my last kitchen job and the difference in stability is night and day. Has anyone else made the switch and noticed better results over time?

Did you have to adjust your cabinet dimensions at all to account for the thicker ply?

Ugh @blairwhite, I feel your pain! I had to tweak my dado heights by like 1/16" to get everything to sit right.
