This island is exactly what I wanted! It took me a long time to find the perfect island that did NOT have a drop leaf overhang where the seating is. This item is beautiful and sturdy and substantial enough to function as close to a built in as I’m going to get in my kitchen. Love it! Only issue was piece F (seared into my brain) could use more instruction on which side is up or down. Had to take it apart more than once to flip that thing around! Either way - totally worth the hassle ❤️
