This island is the best! I love the spice rack and 2 towels racks!  The towel rack on the one side I put a paper towel roll on it, & it works perfectly! There is actually a lot of storage space, I have my large crock pot in the center cabinet on the top shelf. pots & pans, plastic bowels, pitchers; it all fits!  I would highly recommend this island.  The granite top is so beautiful & the island is very easy to wipe down & keep clean.  Enjoy!!
