HOMCOM Rolling Kitchen Island Drop Leaf, Kitchen Cart on Wheels, Solid Wood Top Breakfast Nook with Storage Drawers, 4-Door Cabinets and Spice Rack, Black

Two packages (quite heavy) were delivered for free in record time. Easy, self-explanatory assembly sheet, easy to follow to install with some help (2 people). Must follow exactly the assembly sequence, or else. Pre-drilled holes for sufficient hardware offered. It would have been nicer if seller provided caps to cover exposed screw holes about. Solid casters / wheels are covered in soft rubber, protecting hardwood or ceramic floors, with two lockable wheels. Spacious two-side storage cabinet and double drawers with aesthetic knobs gives both practicality and style. Great purchase complementing a modern kitchen with an alternative island and storage solution.

I love this cart! I was looking for extra storage space for my kitchen that could double as a breakfast nook of sorts and this fits the bill. It was easy to put together although the directions were all pictures/diagrams... NO words of explanation. If you have trouble following diagrams without any words of explanation this might be a bit problematic. I am one who thoroughly reads all the directions and follows them explicitly. So, I was a bit skeptical at the outset. But to this manufacturers credit, there were no missing or damaged pieces and the diagrams were pretty easy to follow. All the hardware, screws, hinges, etc were in small plastic bags well labeled to match the diagrams. I can't believe how easily it all went together. It did take two 2 1/2 hours for us to assemble it. You will definitely need an extra pair of hands to hold the three large sections in place while adding the support bars and for placing the butcher block top with drop-down leaf (which are hinged together before putting in place). The top and drop leaf are pretty heavy to pick up and place correctly without help. Also using a power drill rather than a screw driver made the whole process go much more quickly. We decided to leave off the spice rack at the end and also changed the silver hardware to black to match all our knobs and drawer pulls in our newly renovated kitchen. We had four black knobs leftover from the renovation, so that worked out perfectly. I purchased two black cup drawer pulls from Lowe's to finish the look. I plan to use the drop down leaf as our eating spot with bar stools for seating. After using it for a while, we may decide to add one of the leftover sides of the spice rack as extra support for the drop leaf. I think it will be easy enough to add a hinge and add it to the middle under the leaf. I am using this to store some of my appliances so my counter-tops will not be so full. See pictures I have included. Overall, I am very pleased with this rolling island and look forward to using it for years to come.
