Beautiful match for our Kitchen
This was a huge amount of work for my husband to assemble, but he did comment that the instructions included were really thorough and excellent compared to most assembly instructions. He had a few criticisms about the piece; the fact that it’s a veneer over chipboard, and that the feet were hard to place without the edging (which is supposed to be tucked under the bottom) were somewhat exposed. But he did love how the cabinet doors went in with ease and hang perfectly straight. My criticism is only that it seems they had room to make much larger drawers and that they don’t open fully.I do absolutely love the overall looks of this piece of furniture. We left the paper towel holder off, which also didn’t look like it could keep paper towels in because the rod was so short, but we didn’t need it anyway. Instead, we mounted the shelf/towel holder on the other side. They aren’t really interchangeable unless you just want to mount the shelf. He’d have had to drill holes if we’d wanted the paper towel holder on the opposite side, so that could be a real negative for someone who would like to do that. The holes on the other side are fairly well hidden for us because they’re facing a kitchen cabinet. It would be nice if they’d provided matching pegs to cover the holes if you don’t want to use these attachments. But for our purposes, the cabinet is wonderful, and the granite top was perfect, heavy duty and gorgeous. It matches quite well with our black countertops and appliances. And even though it’s pressboard with a veneer, it truly looks like solid wood. I love this cabinet!

Excellent
Well packaged and arrived undamaged even the stone top. Lot of part to assemble but for once someone wrote the instrcution that actually knew english.Just take it a step at a time and it comes together and is nice lloking, very sturdy, and great for the money compared to all others that are the same or more expensive.

Looks good and functions well
I really like this kitchen island.It is sturdy, and it looks very nice in my kitchen. My husband did not complain about the assembly, so I think it was pretty easy.The only complaint that I have is that the cupboard units are a bit small. I don't think it needs to be divided into thirds. The two cupboards on either side of the center cupboard are very narrow, and the center cupboard not as big as I would have liked. I think it would be better as a single cupboard behind the 3 doors, or just divided into 2.

Beautiful island- amazing customer service
The island arrived very well packed and great assembly instructions. The second package with the granite top was also well packed , in wood, but unfortunately the top was split in two.Contacted customer support, told them the problem, uploaded photos and boom, they sent a replacement top. Pretty sure the first top was split during transport.The customer support for this company is outstanding, and the island is solid and beautiful. We get so many compliments from visitors. I absolutely love it!

Took a Chance - Pleasantly Surprised!
I was very impressed with the quality of this island. It took almost 3 hours to put it together...time consuming, but not too difficult. There are a lot of pieces, but all the wood pieces were well marked and all the hardware was organized and numbered to coincide with the instructions in the manual. They even included some extra screws, cams locks and spring pins in case something was missing. The instructions were fairly easy to follow, although it did take two of us to complete the job. The granite top came in a wood crate that was screwed together to keep it intact. It was inside of a box, wrapped in plastic and cushioned with Styrofoam.The wood and the granite are beautiful and we are very pleased with the finished product. In my opinion, the island is very consistent with the advertised photo. I also liked having the option of putting on the casters OR the round wooden base support pieces (we chose the latter). We have the island against a wall in our kitchen and use it as a microwave stand and extra storage cabinet. It works perfectly.I was worried about spending hundreds of dollars and taking a chance on a product that you have to put together piece by piece, but for us it turned out okay. We were pleasantly surprised with the results. If you are willing to spend a little time to put it together, I would highly recommend this product.

Much needed workspace
Shortly after my husband and I purchased our house we realized, that although large, our kitchen was not set up well. I had almost no usable counter space, and that which we did have was really far away from the stove. I scoured the internet for something that would make cooking easier, but wouldn't destroy my bank account. I found this on another website for about 80.00 more, and decided to check Amazon just in case. Glad I did.Although it isn't huge, it gives me enough space to do most of my prep. I sometimes branch out to other counters if it's a particularly involved meal, but for the most part it works for me. I started keeping my most often used utensils, i.e. measuring spoons, peeler, dry measure cups etc in one drawer, and recipes in the other for quick reference. The cabinets provide ample storage space, again something we severely lacked, for all of my mixing bowls as well as my crockpot, cutting sheets a couple of cook books and my liquid measure cups (I have 4- all the way up to 4 cups).The black finish looks very sharp, and the design is a decently contemporary one. the only thing that I noticed that may detract from it, and I don't know if this is true of all stainless steel, that the occasional rust mark appears. I think it has to do with the salt I keep in the spice rack, (Side note on the spice rack, it's not terribly large, but it stores my most often used spices so I am cool with that) my husband knocks it over and it ends up on the top and I don't notice it until I go to cook and by then the mark is there. It does come off though.I would recommend this product to anyone who doesn't have a lot of work area or a whole lot of space in general. It was a perfect fit.

Happy wife, happy life!
Fantastic product. Shipping was a little confusing but it did arrive. Assembly wasn't too bad and didn't take too long at all. Think of it as IKEA - packet of screws, instructions etc. The top did arrive damaged, and was quickly replaced by the seller. Overall - fantastic product and great service.

A beautiful piece and a great finish.
I've had this piece now for almost a month and love it, it has everything I needed. The reason I did not give it a 5 star is because of the pieces at the ends, making it too long and somewhat chunky. I did not need them and believe most kitchens already have towel holders, etc. I left them out and it looks more sleek, however for those who need it, it's well done.A little time consuming to put together but instructions were quite clear and all the pieces were provided.

Love the result
Would be 5 star except one piece was not drilled properly. A phone call and received a correctly drilled part a week later. Took a bit of time to assemble. Love the result.
