MDF Shaker Doors Question

Last week I made some mdf shaker doors, ive always known the theory of making them, so i had a go - ive got all the gear "tools".

I could of made faker shakers, which i find to be amateurish, so bought some cutters and rebated the stiles and rails and glued in 6mm inset mdf panels.

I'd already made the drawers a few weeks ago.

I am happy with the outcome, but im not happy with the flimsyness of the doors. I used 18mm & 6mm Moisture Resistant MDF.

I'm wondering if 25mm and 9mm MR MDF would give less flex?

9mm rebated into rear of door as one piece would make a sturdier door .
