We wanted something in our kitchen to get the coffee maker, ice tea maker & coffee grinder off our counters to make more room. After looking at several options we decided on this Kitchen Island. We ordered it in black with the black granite top. It arrived earlier than was originally quoted. The top didn't come until the next day. It was a little time consuming to put together. Be sure when you put the drawers together you check that the sides are correct. It is a great piece once assembled. It has freed up a lot of space. It is not a high end piece. But if that's what you are expecting look for something else & expect to pay much more. It is perfect for our purpose. Think it will serve us well for a long time to come.
