Decent product for the price. It takes a bit to assemble and is intimidating but is easier than expected. I love the size. Leaf is sturdier than expected. Fits regular bar stool height. Good storage space, though you need shorter flatware bins in drawers. Theres ample space to add shelve spacers to double dish storage. I did wish this came in an espresso and white (not so ivory), so I may paint and stain rubber wood top just to match my kitchen better.
Okay- so I read the reviews before purchasing. I originally found this online from Home Depot (same price) and decided to order thru so I could receive it sooner. First- it arrived within 3 days, though quoted at a week without Prime. The reviews said it took awhile to put together, need 2 people, etc. No. if youve ever put something together especially recently like ikea or anything from target, this is way easier. Everything Like side walls and top secured together with locking Switch pieces instead of screws so that was time saving and cool. Also- every single piece was labeled as well as every type of hardware in their own labeled bag. This couldnt have been easier! Took maybe 40 min, by myself, while chatting with my toddler and getting dinner in the oven. Instructions were clear and easy to follow. I was amazed at how simple this was to assemble. Nothing was damaged. But- as someone else said- the foam bits go all over. The right side door didnt fit right or stay shut like someone else said, but with a simple Tightening adjustments to the top it works. This is a great buy.
I love the size and look of this! It was not hard to assemble with two people, some of the interlocking latches were little hard to close but it wasnt a big deal. I do wish the drawers were a little bit longer, they work great for my kitchen towels and dry goods but mixing spoons have to be diagonal and a roll of aluminum foil does not fit at all. Overall I am very pleased with the size of the top and cabinets and the Look and quality of the unit.
I received this kitchen cart today and immediately put it together and moved it into the kitchen. Overall, its a really great product but a few imperfections and a problem with part of the assembly keep it from getting the full 5 stars. Ill break it down below:
Packaging: DEFINITELY one of the easier huge packages to open. Its done in a way that you just need to cut down the tape and everything opens easily, no awkward pulling things out or lifting a super heavy box at an odd angle.
Assembly: From the time I started opening the box until I put the last pieces together, it took 2 hours. I have put together TONS of furniture and exercise equipment purchased online and these by far are the clearest instructions. Even each bag of screws was clearly labeled as to what they were for. The only problem I had was with assembling the drawers. Instructions say not to use power tools but there are no pre-drilled holes for where the bottom of the drawers go into the sides so I had to use a drill on a low setting. Also hanging the doors - you literally just slide them into the fittings, there is nothing more to it than that. The doors are a little crooked. I have take pictures of it at the top and bottom to show the difference. Not too noticeable from a distance.
Final product - Only problem is mine had a big scratch a couple inches long on the top, photo included. Thats pretty disappointing. But its a big heavy product that I just put together so its not worth sending back over that. Aside from that, it looks pretty good! I tested out the leaf and it sits up evenly and is sturdy. The drawers are pretty deep and the shelves are adjustable so its pretty roomy! Overall Im quite happy with it.
Every kitchen with little counter space should have one!! Best thing I have purchased in a long time, gives so much extra storage and counter space for cooking!
I bought this for my daughter-in-law she needed more space for her kitchen appliances and pots and pans. Assembly is straightforward, took a few hours by myself. Looks great and if it is taken care of, should last quite awhile. Not the most expensive island but not cheaply made either.

Great looking product, well built, a few imperfections

Buy it!
Every kitchen with little counter space should have one!! Best thing I have purchased in a long time, gives so much extra storage and counter space for cooking!
Not quite worth what I paid.
Unfortunately its china made which is not quality. Its not worth more then $150.00 tops.
Economical and stores an abundance of kitchen appliances.
I bought this for my daughter-in-law she needed more space for her kitchen appliances and pots and pans. Assembly is straightforward, took a few hours by myself. Looks great and if it is taken care of, should last quite awhile. Not the most expensive island but not cheaply made either.
Easy to build
easy to build, looks great! Everything fit together really tight, the instructions were simple to follow and the parts were clearly labeled.
