Both looked good for a long time. The biggest difference was that the first refaced the cabinet boxes with 1/8 oak faced plywood. The second used thinner layer of a specialty product. Sill wood, but I wonder if it would have the durability long term. We moved after 5 years, still looked good.
As others have noted, your old cabinets are likely solid wood, and likely stronger than everything less than absolute top of the line modern stuff.
Reface does allow you to keep more $, or use if for other things like counter tops, etc.
Reface also minimizes landfill space. While most of us are not extremely green, less in the landfill is a good thing.
