I would give this 5 stars but the holes for the screws need to be a little larger, this made putting the island together much more difficult.  I'm a woman, without a lot of strength and couldn't have done it.  My husband put it together.  He said to put the screws in the holes and make them bigger before putting it together to make it much easier.

I love the island now that it is together.  Would have liked it just a tad taller, but it is the perfect size for my area.  I have a tiny kitchen, and no counter space beside my stove, that is beside a window. I needed something that expanded, as I have a pantry I need to get to.  So this is PERFECT!  Thought we would have to make something!

So really, only marks off because of it was hard to put together.  4.5 stars would have been better!
