Built-ins

I plan on constructing built-ins around my fireplace later thisyear and have a question about cabinets.

Most "how-to" books tell you to dowel/biscuit join the face piece together. If i'm building this out of MDF, however, wouldn't it be stronger to just cut it out as one piece? I realize that it's probably not an efficient use of materials, but i'm trying to avoid having to buy/rent/borrow any more tools than necessary.
