Great quality and no damage in transit although cartons looked a bit rough. The only assemble issue was that panel that fit into the base pin holes did not lineup with the panel pins. It was necessary to redrill the pin holes. All other predrill holes lined up. I managed to assemble by myself except for help to lift the marble top into place.

Beautiful cart for a great price! Not difficult to put together, but you will need two people and recommend a portable drill/screw gun. Plan a good 2 hours to complete. So happy with it! Met and exceeded our expectations.

I love my cart because it has plenty of storage for all my attachments for my Kitchenaide products. Plus the drawers are an extra bonus. I think I have it loaded with too many items and plus there is no reason to move it, so I have my wheel locked. A bonus for me is that when I move from this rental, this will come with me to my new home.

ridiculous..
I might update my review later, however I am currently bringing the product back to the store. whoever pre-assembled the middle panels used the wrong panel for the second and installed the rollers and side bar upside down so I can't connect them with the rails... let's see how long a replacement takes to get here. hopefully the same guy isn't doing the packaging and prep on the next one.

    My husband and I had no issues assembling this cart. Our bathroom has a toilet and walkin shower in one area, and the other area has a modern pedestal sink. There is no cabinet. We purchased this cart for that purpose, as we need storage space in the bathroom. It works perfect. We left off the paper towel holder, as we didn't have enough room with it on. We absolutely love it. In fact, so much that we are thinking of purchasing another in a few months to replace the bulky kitchen island we now have.http://homedepot.ugc.bazaarvoice.com/submit/1999/ps_amazon_s3_3cj37gwn97ptks3xj7d56ln4x/photoThumb.jpg

    Awesome find. I needed extra work space and storage and this cart is perfect. The delivery was less than a week. My son put the cart together for me. He did the entire job in about 1 1/2 hours. The directions were easy to follow and this product was well engineered. Every screw fit where it was supposed to etc. I selected the white cart with a black granite top. The details are very nice and I would call it a "value piece" . The wheels on the bottom lock into place, but I move my cart when entertaining a large group. I love my new cart for the holidays and look forward to using it forever. Love it!

    LOVE IT!!!
    This was pretty easy to assemble. I am a female and did it alone until I needed help lifting the Granite Top. The only fallback was the directions did not follow through on cabinets and doors being installed. Those directions were packed with the top, so I did not see until that was opened and unpacked. Needless to say, I had to UNDO some steps. It would be great if it indicated - FOLLOW FROM HERE WITH DIRECTIONS PACKED WITH TOP. The island is absolutely beautiful in my home!!! The quality and price is exactly what I wanted.

    Good looking cart and meets our needs!
    This product was easy for my son to install (but then again he is experienced in doing these kinds of things). The quality is good and the price I would have like to have paid less. I don't know if it was worth $400.00 I wished it would have been on sale. But it is sturdy and I love the stainless steel top. Our kitchen is small and lacking cabinets so this is why I purchased this item. We are using the drawers for cooking utensils, etc., towels, and washcloths. The deep drawer on the bottom is good for anything from bread to sugar, etc. We are using it as a pantry also as well as a counter top for preparation of meals. I like that we can keep the seasonings we use the most on the side of it.

    Great Project!
    Very pleased with the quality of the materials, the design of the kit, and the ease of assembly. Compared with nightstands, wall cabinets, and some other kits I have assembled ... this one was really exceptional. Really worth purchasing ... rather than building my own from scratch.

    Extra Storage Space
    We recently remodeled our kitchen. I wanted something that I could store my small appliances in so they wouldn't have to sit on the counter. This cart fills the bill. Directions were clear to follow and from start to finish it took my husband three hours. I like to be able to roll it into the kitchen so I can use the granite top for pie dough and yeast breads. It was delivered a day earlier than expected. The two packages are VERY heavy. At least two people or a two wheeler are needed to move them. Also there is a lot of packing material to dispose of(cardboard, wood, and styrofoam) My husband and I are very pleased with this purchase and would recommend to anyone.

    Perfect Fit!
    It took me about 3 hours to put this cart together. I only needed help with lifting up and putting on the granite top. The instructions were easy to follow and the wood finish matches my cabinets perfectly. I love it,

    Great island but not really White
    I really like this island. It has lots of space in the four drawers and behind the two doors. The stainless top looks great with all my new stainless appliances in my kitchen. It wipes up easily and I don't have any problems with keeping it clean. The island is sturdy and smooth and rolls easily so I can have it in the middle of my kitchen when I need it and park it on the side when I don't need to use it. The hardwear is very nice and nearly matches the new cabinet hardwear. It is exactly what I wanted, except I wanted it to be white as advertised which it isn't. It is sort of off white or very light gray. I have white woodwork in my kitchen so it bothers me. I will probably repaint it.I would still recommend it as long as you don't mind the color or are willing to paint it.

    My new kitchen in Black Ice
    I recently purchased new appliances in Black Ice and thought the contrast would be nice. I was surprised at the ease in which I was able to put the cart together. It has enhanced the appearance of my kitchen and has made it more efficient. The drawers and cabinet spaces hold those extra items for every day cooking. The granite counter looks so good with my toaster, food processor, and bread box on top.

    Happy, but wouldn't pay the price.
    I wouldn't pay the price I did pay for this cart due to the cons, though I am happy with it. CONS: The magnet on one door doesn't work right and the door is hard to keep closed. The top drawers screws were put in crooked (I didn't do it, it was already screwed in) and the top drawer wouldn't close properly so I just kept the screws out. There are a few knicks and marks on the wood, though it's expected being shipped, etc. The drawers don't pull out as much as I thought they would. BIG TIP: When putting this item together, it tells you to put the sides on and later add on the paper towel and towel rack, DO THIS BEFORE you put them on, because you have no room to properly screw in the bolts. PROS: Very sleek and modern looking. EASY to put together, IF you take your time and read the instructions right. I've never been able to build something on my own, but it did have great instructions, it just takes time! Shipped fast, pick up was easy, though this item is VERY VERY heavy! Overall, I would recommend it, but don't expect it to be perfect. And though my item had a few problems, it of course doesn't mean yours will too!

    Great Cart
    Sturdy well-made cart, took my husband and I about an hour or so to put it together, provides lots of storage for my baking trays and tools. Unfortunately the first top that we received was broken, customer service was great and ordered a replacement which was received quickly.

    My BBQ cart
    I wanted a BBQ cart and this seemed better than building from scratch. The drawers are a little smaller than expected but assembly was not that difficult although time consuming. I did have missing parts and although the manufacturer rapidly sent me MOST of them, they did not send me all of the parts I specified as missing. I completed my cart with parts from another local hardware vendor. I fabricated hooks for the tools from a wall hook set I found at Home Depot. I secured them to the doors with cable clamps. PERFECT!

    The cart is perfect for added storage and workspace
    I love this cart! It is attractive as well as being very functional. The only problem was assembly. It took my husband 3 1/2 hrs to assemble. Advertised as some assembly required, but total assembly is necessary.

    Poor Quality
    I was really disappointed by this purchase. The shipping was good, but we started assembling the piece and their were scratches which is not a big deal, but what happened after just really upset me. I rolled it on a flat, smooth wood floor and one of the rollers literally broke off. The piece it broke off of was not real wood but a poor quality material. The whole point of the island is to be able to roll it. I used wood glue to place the roller back on the base. I do not believe the price for this item matches what you receive.

    Great for storage and portablility.
    Finally a nice solid piece of furniture going to use for my TV stand in living room. It matches my bookcase. Best of all, it's on wheels and has drawers and cabinets, not just open shelves. I had recently purchased an electric screwdriver (came in very handy). Easy to put together. Well made. Now the hard part...to choose the TV! Marie

      9100-1064 Large Create-A-Cart in Cottage Oak with Black Granite Top
      1st The beginning diagram showing the placement of wheels was wrong. 2nd I got all right wheels with no left wheels so one of the locking mechanisms in on the inside and one is on the outside. No big deal, but still took some figuring on how to place them. 3rd The hinge on the right door was a hair too high and the door would not slide onto the hinge once the top was secured. Had to lift the top up and force it in place. My suggestion is to keep the doors on, then set the top on. 4th I am not a do-it-yourselfer, handicapped and doing it alone took me 3 days to complete this monster. I would gladly pay extra for ready-made furniture, but it is impossible to find these days. 5th The inside drawer sliders had a screw that wasn't screwed in. The drawer was catching so I tightened it. 6th The finish on some drawer faces are a little darker, but not too noticeable. 7th There were holes drilled in the back pieces on the top that had no use. They are almost not visible, so not a reason to knock off a point. 8th Hard to find waste bin to fit. Inside dimension is 13.25W x 12.5D x 28H OK for the good points 1st the color was almost exactly spot-on to the original cupboards. 2nd The granite top was in perfect condition and no chips or cracks. I would have liked information on how to keep it spot free with a few referrals. 3rd The imperfections in the wood were not too noticeable, scratches were very small and can be touched up easily. 4th I've had many compliments on how beautiful it is.

      Exactly what I wanted
      This was really easy for my fiancee and I to put together, and it looks great. The quality is fantastic. We didn't attach the side rack and paper towel holder so that it would fit in the space better, and once we fill the holes, you won't be able to tell anything's missing. Really happy with this product!

      This product matches my kitchen cabinet wood exactly!
      This cabinet was easy to put together, except for having to make each drawer. The countertop has plenty of room and I was able to move into each side cabinet, my cookie sheets, baking dishes, rolling pins and pie plates! The only negative is that the drawers don't open fully unless you take them off the roller tracks. It's a sturdy, good-looking cabinet that I can wheel next to my other counters for when I'm baking and prepping other foods. Great!

      Item was packaged very well and arrived in good condition.
      The features were what was described on the web site, no surprises.The instructions were good and the product went together well except for one issue (one dowel did not align well).

      The kitchen cart is great. It helped my wife to organize so many things in the kitchen. The assembling of it was not that bad, but the hole for mounting the granite top was not aligned correctly and so that took sometime to put the screws in. Need to use both the hands to move it otherwise it could fall down.

      We’ve had this island for over a month. Previous island wasn’t big enough for our air fryer and microwave. This works out great. Some family members liked it, and thought they could use one in their kitchen. Instructions were easy to follow. Could use use 1 or 2 more shelves for each door.
