We've done 3 kitchens with Home Depot. Each time getting a second quote (not Lowe's, but a "real" kitchen remodeling company. Each time, HD was cheaper for the cabinets, granite, and install than the "real" kitchen places were for just the cabinets - and, yes, we were comparing apples to apples; in our case all Kraftmaid, all-plywood-construction with solid wood fronts and soft return drawers and doors.

With any construction job you should have the option of refusing the work performed. Haven't had that problem with HD, but several other contractors.
