A nice piece of furniture. Well packaged. Once you realize that the directions show many steps in one diagram, then it all starts to make sense. It's a perfect size for my kitchen. We just built our house, and wanted to live in it awhile before committing to an island, weren't really sure about traffic flow, size, etc.  This island serves as a great division between kitchen and dining area, a great little space to gather around, eat snacks, have coffee, I truly love it.
One problem, one door doesn't not fully close, stays open about 1". Lots of others had similar problems, it seems. Hence the 4 stars. Not sure we can fix it, the hinges seem to be so far off. 
I have a wastbasket in one cabinet. I don't greatly need the storage, I think I will use it more for organizing paperwork, bills, etc. Would only want light weight stuff inside.
