Dolly Madison Kitchen Island: Worth the Effort to Assemble
It takes a minimum of two persons to put most of the parts that are pre/tooled in place because of the weight of the piece. It also was missing certain small drilled holes in at least three parts of the assembly including the butcherbox top. The instructions were a help but you had to provide the craftsman small phillips screwdriver to really do the trick with the very small wood screws. And, as for easy to flip clamps that was a joke. My fingers, my sisters were not strong enough in the majority of cases to flip the clamp, it took a hard tool from my toolbox to squeeze, hammer it without breaking anything. I do like the piece very much however once it has been done and it is the perfect storage for my appliances that will not fit on my kitchen shelves. (And it doesnt obstruct the walkway from the kitchen area.
