I bought this island and paid the extra money to have one of wayfairs handy man assemble it.  Worth every penny.  The island is gorgeous and gives me so much storage!   I am so happy I decided to let a professional put it together, he had it done in 2 hours.  If your trying to decide on weather you should buy this island, just go for it.  Well worth the money, and if you can swing it, have them put it together.  It was nice to have it in 3 boxes and then within 2 hours a beautiful island in my kitchen.  Only thing you might need to know is that 2 of the boxes were very heavy so make sure you got someone strong to take in the boxes.  I used a dolly and that helped.  Anyway,  I say go for it.  I’m sure you will love it once it’s all put together.   I would’ve taken a picture but I’m moving and it’s at my other place.
