I actually got this changing table to use as extra storage in my kitchen. I was looking for an island, but then I saw this on sale and realized that I could use the top part for my fresh fruit and veggie baskets, thus freeing up counter space. This choice gave me a lot more storage space for my money than a kitchen island would have. 

It was a little difficult to put together (hence 4 stars instead of 5). The slots for the wood pegs on the top rails don't quite line up, and the wood is very, very dry. I ended up doing a little filing, using furniture oil as a lubricant and using a rubber mallet to set the pegs in the slots. You'll also need a Phillips screwdriver in addition to the little hex wrench that's included.

I'm happy with the finished product, and it will suit my purpose well. If I were to use it as a changing table, I think it would do just fine for that, too! :) It's quite sturdy once it's assembled, and it looks nice.
