Pros / Fairly easy to assemble. Not too heavy, so moving it around isnt bad. Adjustable shelves allow you to store whatever you want in any confusion.
Cons / The material quality is mediocre at best. The doors and drawers seem super light and flimsy, and are a bit warped. Mine was missing a bolt anchor; luckily I had a large wood screw that I could use to substitute.
Overall / I wouldnt buy again at the 561 price, but most of the flaws didnt really become evident until it was mostly put together. So its not worth the hassle of disassembling for a return. Maybe worth it if the price drops below 400.
Yes, its a pain to put together, and you want to get your own Wood Glue for added stability/sturdiness on the wooden dowels. You also are best building it on its back or upside/down.
Be aware, if you order the chairs to go with it, its only 1, not 2 The stools do come in a pair.
However, once youve gotten past that pain, its aming! Plenty of added shelf space, cabinets, and a large countertop, with a leaf that folds out if desired. Makes for a great breakfast table.
It took two of us to assemble so I didnt rate 5/stars for that reason only. The storage space is needed but you cannot really store anything too wide like an instapot, but I can store my baking supplies easily
Very sturdy and looks lovely. Cannot believe we didnt get it sooner
This is sturdy and solid and HEAVY!! It is such a pretty piece of furniture. It was well packaged, everything lined up during the process of putting it together.
The packaging was very good!
It took my husband and myself about 45 minutes to put together.
I will put wheels on it for easy moving, but it is PERFECT
It came in 3 boxes. It was not difficult to assemble, it took my husband and I about 90 mins. BUT, marking the box that has the hardware, on the outside of the box, would have been nice. we had to open all 3 to find it. It is in box 2, but we opened 1 3 first, LOL. I love the extra storage and that it has seating. the top folds down, if you dont want the seating part. it seems to be very solid, not particle board! matches my stools perfectly!
After waiting a long time for the island to be back in stock we finally received our purchase, which showed up in 3 boxes. The top and the base are each one piece and all I had to do was put the panels and the columns together. It went together easily and the materials are of good quality. We enjoy our new addition in our kitchen.

Buy at a lower price.
