My husband literally just finished putting this island together.  We ordered it in black with the black granite top.  It's GORGEOUS!  It's fabulous quality and looks GREAT in our kitchen.  It came very securely packed without a scratch or knick on it. It took about two hours to put together, but the instructions are very clear and very easy to put together!  I HIGHLY recommend this.  It's a fantastic piece of furniture and high quality for the price.  Five stars all the way around!
