I love the island. It’s a terrific size and after the long process of assembling it ourselves (I highly recommend buying the assembly package!) I find it is exactly what I wanted. There is one problem, however... the pre drilled holes on the base piece, were drilled backwards, thereby rendering the bottle holder unusable. The only way we could attach the base was to remove the bottle holder, flip the base and attach. There are now four ugly holes with nothing in them. The cart is sturdy and works really well and I would have given it 5 stars if the pieces would have worked as planned. I don’t mind not having the bottle holders, I do mind the holes.
