Love it!! Just what I was looking for! Needed an "island" for my kitchen & measurements were never quite right, too small, big, square, short, etc... this is the PERFECT size... the taller height is great, a little taller than regular counter height & since I am tall it's a perfect fit!! Love the HUGE extra storage shelf! Would buy another one in a heartbeat... If I had another kitchen... LOL!! I did read negative reviews before I purchased... to answer those: No, the wheel locks don't work well... I took mine off... problem solved. Even without wheels the height was still awesome! & Yes... the surface will get scratched if you prepare food, work, etc. on it... well of course... isn't that what you buy it for... to use it? a few scratches doesn't bother me & after a bit more use it will just become part of the surface... it's just a great piece.
