A good, affordable island

I looked at dozens of islands in this price range and felt this would be the best bang for our buck. It's pretty sturdy and has a nice design. The pressboard material is better than I've seen in most flat-pack furniture - I've assembled a lot of it over the years. The top is wood and has a nice thickness; it adds a level of quality to the finished product. The finish on the shelves and drawer bottoms is a bit papery, so I added contact paper to them so they'll hold up better. We only needed something to use for a few months while we remodel our late-70s kitchen, but we'll probably find a place to use it elsewhere after that project is finished. It's a really decent item and it looks nice when finished. The biggest con is that the instructions had tiny diagrams. If you can't see well, grab a magnifying glass. I was squinting to verify I was putting some of its smaller parts in the right places and I can see just fine with my glasses. I didn't run into any other issues assembling it. It took about three hours to do solo.
This island cart is very well made. I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of the pieces. This is not your standard pressed wood furniture. I was able to put the entire cart together by myself without any tools other than a screwdriver. I think that says a lot for a 66 year old female. The drawers roll smooth as glass. I was very impressed with how all the pieces lined up perfectly, as so many of these DIY products just don't come together quick right. The casters roll easily. I am overall just very impressed.
Absolute perfection! Our entire family loves our new kitchen island! I had done my research for quality and price. I hit the jackpot with this find! We opted not to put doors on both sides for a more styled look. We all use the island to chop on vs our counters. My husband is 6ft and he still prefers to chop everything on the island versus the counters. The grey was a beautiful combo with the white cupboards. Even when we don't lock the wheels it doesn't roll around. Would definitely buy again! Not too big not too small.
Easy to assemble. All the parts were labeled which made it easy to put together.. After assembled its very sturdy.. Has lots of storage. I use it for my stand mixer and pasta machine
