This island is absolutely perfect for our kitchen, it’s very well made and we love the space for storage.  Easily assembled, just takes patience and everything aligned accordingly. We did decide to stain the top ourselves. The pull out table is a wonderful addition and it is not made to slide all the way back into the islands a someone thought it should on a previous review. I thought I would have a problem with the drawers open on each side but it is also a plus now I can get to my utensils from either side of the island.
