Kitchen cupboards. Gloss or matt?

I want very modern, handleless, minimalist, soulless white. But can't decide between gloss and matt. Magnet charge more for matt because it's painted while gloss is vinyled on, but what looks better and what's easier to clean?

Thanks

Gloss, reflects more light and really easy to keep clean with a good glass cleaner. Clover brite is brilliant.

It depends on the materials and what you cook. Solid wood doors, for example, that can be sanded and repainted are a god send if you cook a lot of Indian food or use food colouring - because don’t believe the type tumeric or chilli does eventually stain even the most thoroughly cleaned gloss kitchens.

I have handleless gloss white and despise them. Don’t do it! The gloss shows every water mark and loads of dirt accumulates in the dipped handleless bits at the top of the doors of the base cabinets. I’m considering changing all of mine (they came with the house).
