LOVE this island. It is perfect for our small apartment. We bought it to put in our small entry way next to the kitchen and put our microwave on top with some other appliances on the bottom. Really helped to clear up counter space so it's not so cluttered. It's beautiful and sturdy and set up was easy. Only took about 45 minutes. The wood top is perfect and matches our other wood pieces in the apt. If you are looking for a prep table/island or table for more storage look no further!
