Overall this island is really great, and sturdy. Definitely nice to have a second person help assemble it, but nothing terribly difficult.
The only issue is that not everything lines up correctly. For us, that's mainly the 2 big, main doors. They're a little crooked from each other and that's a little frustrating when everything else seems so well built.
Oh, also... you can put the spice tray or paper towel holder on either side... just plan it ahead because it's easier to do at the beginning than after you built is as per the directions! (I wanted to swap them)
