This item is very well constructed and the granite top is beautiful.  It makes a wonderful addition to our kitchen and frees up space.  I would rate the finished product as 5 stars.  But the assembly is not as easy as it should be.  There are many separate parts and the diagrams could be clearer.  Additionally, I received two of the same part (the drawer glide) which means that for the moment I cannot use the drawer as intended.  Customer service was excellent and sent the replacement part right away, but it will still be at least ten days after the initial delivery before I am in receipt of the missing part. Overall however I would recommend this island, particularly at this price point.  It is a very attractive piece of kitchen furniture.
