This island holds way more than I was expecting. The drawers hold more than you think on first glance and the shelf space is enough to hold all of my baking supplies--and I have A LOT! Exactly what we needed for our new kitchen, which is way smaller than our previous kitchen. I love it! It looks great now and I imagine it will still work when we renovate our kitchen next year! I definitely recommend this product. Functional and  nice to look at! Worth every penny!
