Received my island and stools today. Couldn’t wait to put it together, sadly I won’t be using the stools. As you can see by one of the pictures the metal opening  the holes don’t come close to lining up.  Outside of that the island was easy to put together. Took about 2 12 hrs because of an error on our part (put the  divider in backwards  we had to back track to fix it).  As you see in the other pictures the shelve hold A LOT of appliances.
