It took two days for the island to arrive; it landed on my doorstep in 3 tattered boxes that had me crossing my fingers hoping that there was no damage to the boxes' contents- particularly after reading some of the other reviews. Well, aside from a little scuffing on the corner of the top of the island, it turned out fine. There were no missing parts and all the hardware was there. My husband put it together in about 2 hours after I carefully laid out all the pieces in the appropriate order. It looks just like the picture, with lots of much-needed storage space behind those two doors- it's deep enough for my cookie sheets so I'm pleased with that. It fits my space just fine, but it's taking some getting-used-to, as there was previously no shortage of dead space in my open kitchen. All in all, I'd say it's a good value for the money.
