I Love this island. When we moved into our new rental property I knew right away there was going to be a problem with the size of the kitchen. I need more counter space and storage. This island is both. I love the fact that it is on wheels and I can put it right next to the sink and oven. It has locking wheels and stays put. The two drawers are a little narrow, my rolling pin is too long to fit but the 9 in carving knife fits fine. The cupboards are deep and store alot. this is the best island for the price.
Extremely impressed. August 11, 2010

First of all, you've got to put the whole thing together. I was very impressed with how well each piece was labeled, down to individual bags of screws and bolts (with labels like "screws for drawer sides"). I was equally impressed with the clarity of the instructions, the ease of assembly, and the precision with which each piece fit together. With something like this, there's LOTS of potential for misaligned holes, slots, pegs, and anything else you could think of. Everything fit together perfectly. The wood is good-quality too. The end result is something that's solid, very durable and fairly attractive; it looks just like the picture on Amazon. I never review stuff like this, but I was so impressed that I'm making an exception. Highly recommended.

Packaged in plenty of Styrofoam, leaving Styrofoam bits everywhere. My 19 year old son and I build it with some problems. The outer cabinet was wrapped and very hard to match the holes. The directions have the pieces labeled but they do not specify which direction to put the part in and the pictures are poor. A piece can fit one of two ways and will fit both. Then into the build you will find several of the pieces have holes not lining up cause some of the pieces are put in backwards. We used a portable electric driver and accessory bits with Phillips bits, regular and Allen bits. I would advise you have an electric driver with at least these bits. Makes it faster and we have to dissemble 4 times even following the directions. The electric driver makes it easy to assemble and dissemble, At the end of the constructions you have to drive Phillips screws into wood with a dimple of a pilot hole. The electric driver will help drive the screws into wood that is not predrilled for wood screws. The back panels are in slots and were very difficult to keep in, they almost seemed over sized. The casters that come with the unit are good. Over all well built for a prefab, but there is going to be a struggle to put it together. Even with an electric driver it took 2 of us 2 hours due to reassembly.

This Kitchen Island arrived promptly and was well packaged.I rated it 4 stars only because of the difficulty to assemble.It took over two hours for my husband and I and we think that we are handy with tools.It definitely takes two people.However,the end result was well worth the effort.I put a marble top on mine that I already had and it looks great!We had to call the manufacturer for new drawer slides because of damage to the ones that arrived."plastic" Need I say more.That said,the replacements arrived promptly and were an easy install. I like the fact that it's on wheels. It fit my small kitchen space perfectly.I would order this again and recommend to others.For the price you really can't beat it.I took out the center two open shelves and put in a bin from the container store that is perfect for recycling or trash.Happy customer
