Crosley Furniture Alexandria Granite Top Rolling Kitchen Island Storage Cart, Microwave Stand, Spice Rack, Cherry

This was a huge amount of work for my husband to assemble, but he did comment that the instructions included were really thorough and excellent compared to most assembly instructions. He had a few criticisms about the piece; the fact that it’s a veneer over chipboard, and that the feet were hard to place without the edging (which is supposed to be tucked under the bottom) were somewhat exposed. But he did love how the cabinet doors went in with ease and hang perfectly straight. My criticism is only that it seems they had room to make much larger drawers and that they don’t open fully.I do absolutely love the overall looks of this piece of furniture. We left the paper towel holder off, which also didn’t look like it could keep paper towels in because the rod was so short, but we didn’t need it anyway. Instead, we mounted the shelf/towel holder on the other side. They aren’t really interchangeable unless you just want to mount the shelf. He’d have had to drill holes if we’d wanted the paper towel holder on the opposite side, so that could be a real negative for someone who would like to do that. The holes on the other side are fairly well hidden for us because they’re facing a kitchen cabinet. It would be nice if they’d provided matching pegs to cover the holes if you don’t want to use these attachments. But for our purposes, the cabinet is wonderful, and the granite top was perfect, heavy duty and gorgeous. It matches quite well with our black countertops and appliances. And even though it’s pressboard with a veneer, it truly looks like solid wood. I love this cabinet!

Installing took some time but it turned out beautifully. Sturdy and functional. It holds more then expected.

I needed a kitchen island of a specific size with a high quality countertop, some storage space underneath, that looked like a nice piece of furniture, at a price that fit my budget. This fit the bill. Sure it's not solid mahogany or cherry, and yeah the doors and drawers aren't heavy, but honestly, the fit and finish is pretty tight. It's not wobbly, the drawers & doors operate smoothly, and the granite top is rather nice. And most importantly, the piece is very attractive. The cabinet space is not huge, but they provide dimensions here...you know what you're getting.As for assembly, I'll say with complete confidence that the reviewer complaining about the size and function of the screws, either he/she was doing something wrong, or the company has since corrected what parts they provide. Assembly took a whole evening, but if you lay out your pieces before you begin, and follow the directions as they are, it's not really in any way challenging. There are a lot of parts, and I found it to be a 2-person job. 1 person to do the assembly, and 1 person to kind of play nurse...locate the requested parts as they come up in the directions, and hold up pieces while the other person is tightening screws. But again, it's not hard. Just time-consuming.I'm satisfied with my purchase!

The media could not be loaded.  This was very easy to put together. It took awhile but easy nonetheless. And very sturdy. Would purchase again if ever needed. We have two industrial size appliances on them. A vacuum sealer and a slicer. With no issues. The drawers a a bit smaller then I thought but no biggie for us.

I was very impressed with the quality of this island. It took almost 3 hours to put it together...time consuming, but not too difficult. There are a lot of pieces, but all the wood pieces were well marked and all the hardware was organized and numbered to coincide with the instructions in the manual. They even included some extra screws, cams locks and spring pins in case something was missing. The instructions were fairly easy to follow, although it did take two of us to complete the job. The granite top came in a wood crate that was screwed together to keep it intact. It was inside of a box, wrapped in plastic and cushioned with Styrofoam.The wood and the granite are beautiful and we are very pleased with the finished product. In my opinion, the island is very consistent with the advertised photo. I also liked having the option of putting on the casters OR the round wooden base support pieces (we chose the latter). We have the island against a wall in our kitchen and use it as a microwave stand and extra storage cabinet. It works perfectly.I was worried about spending hundreds of dollars and taking a chance on a product that you have to put together piece by piece, but for us it turned out okay. We were pleasantly surprised with the results. If you are willing to spend a little time to put it together, I would highly recommend this product.

The island arrived very well packed and great assembly instructions. The second package with the granite top was also well packed , in wood, but unfortunately the top was split in two.Contacted customer support, told them the problem, uploaded photos and boom, they sent a replacement top. Pretty sure the first top was split during transport.The customer support for this company is outstanding, and the island is solid and beautiful. We get so many compliments from visitors. I absolutely love it!

Well packaged and arrived undamaged even the stone top. Lot of part to assemble but for once someone wrote the instrcution that actually knew english.Just take it a step at a time and it comes together and is nice lloking, very sturdy, and great for the money compared to all others that are the same or more expensive.

Fantastic product. Shipping was a little confusing but it did arrive. Assembly wasn't too bad and didn't take too long at all. Think of it as IKEA - packet of screws, instructions etc. The top did arrive damaged, and was quickly replaced by the seller. Overall - fantastic product and great service.

Amazing quality. Sturdy and Elegant. Immediately becoming a showpiece in my kitchen!

I've had this piece now for almost a month and love it, it has everything I needed. The reason I did not give it a 5 star is because of the pieces at the ends, making it too long and somewhat chunky. I did not need them and believe most kitchens already have towel holders, etc. I left them out and it looks more sleek, however for those who need it, it's well done.A little time consuming to put together but instructions were quite clear and all the pieces were provided.

Excellent product, went together well. Some tracking delivery problems caused by border crossing. Very happy with finished product

Would be 5 star except one piece was not drilled properly. A phone call and received a correctly drilled part a week later. Took a bit of time to assemble. Love the result.
