Never mind, need new cabs and counters then. Cabs can run you $8000 and on up for, say, 18 linear feet (25 boxes or so). Plus countertops, installation, and floors, you're talking more like $15,000, minium. Ah. Never mind, need new cabs and counters then.

Made of cheap material, like plywood. We thought about refacing, but I really need to get a bit more counterspace and extend the cabinets, as the previous owners took out a door that was originally in the kitchen. That will allow us to extend it some. As someone who uses her kitchen to test recipes and make large batches of items, this one thing is crucial. The cabinets are really shoddy.

Install hardwood floors. Or Marmoleum, but tear out all the old floors first and get to the subfloor, make sure it's level, undamaged, etc. Reface the cabinets (sand down completely, and/or replace the doors).
