5 out of 5 stars Outstanding kitchen addition!!   September 5, 2009
Alan B. Richards (Denton, TX USA)
I purchased one of these a couple of years ago. It has provided much more than I could have asked for the price paid.

My kitchen is rather small with little work space. I needed a place to knead bread and do other things but also needed it to roll out of the way when not needed. This island turned out to be perfect. It does require a bit of assembly. Took me about 90 minutes. The result was a handsome & functional island in unfinished rubberwood. You can finish it with most stains or wood finishes but I would recommend leaving the countertop unfinished. More sanitary & easier to keep clean. (Yes, handled properly, wood is every bit as sanitary as plastic, stone, or metal. Keep ALL liquids off of it!)

It's sturdy enough for hard kitchen use. I have pounded meat on it (on a cutting board) and beat bread dough to death. I have also used it as an impromptu breakfast bar & even rolled it onto the patio to use as a dry bar once. Worked wonderfully. But it really shines as a place to slice. dice, chop & mix. And it's the best bread board I've ever had. (NOTE: DO NOT USE A KNIFE ON THE WOOD!! Put a cutting board down to protect the surface.) It even holds 3 separate, operating machines (bread machine, slow cooker, & my large Kitchen-Aid stand mixer)& still leaves a good working area. The back leaf folds down & reduces the storage space when you need to roll it out of the way.

The only shortcomings (and they are minor) is the depth of the storage. The cabinets are not deep enough to store large pans. You can get two 1 gal. water/milk jugs back to back & that's about it. Also the drawers are too short & too shallow to store long items like ladles, cooking spoons, & butcher knives. A silverware tray won't fit. Also when assembling, stagger the 2 lockable wheels on opposite corners. Otherwise the island will pivot when pushed.

If you need working space for a small kitchen & don't want spend big bucks, this is the island to buy. After seeing mine & how I use it, several friends bought one too.



4 out of 5 stars Good, sturdy piece   August 19, 2009

This is a great kitchen island with a good deal of cupboard space. Assembly took about half an hour with two people but wasn't difficult. There are a lot of pieces however and we were missing a couple (bolts, plugs, nothing major), hence only 4 stars. Overall though a satisfactory purchase.


4 out of 5 stars Great breakfast bar   February 28, 2009

This is a great breakfast bar at a very reasonable price. The only problem was that there were a couple of scratches on the top that had been filled with putty. When I brought it to their attention they immediately replaced the top. Although it was an inconvenience, I must say they had very responsive excellent customer service.


4 out of 5 stars Just what i needed   February 17, 2009

This product was just what I needed in my new kitchen. It arrived within a week, and unlike some other reviews, it did have the wood top as advertised vs. a stainless steel. It only took a little over an hour to assemble, which is great compared to other types of do-it-yourself assembly. It gave me the extra storage I was looking for while giving me some seating in a kitchen where a table just won't work. I'm very happy with this purchase.

Item is as described and makes a welcome addition for kitchen use and storage. EZ assembly with a full wood top (not stainless steel as described in another review). Wife had wanted one of these for a long time and would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a storage cart/island. Very sturdy and attractive.
