has anyone used this on their kitchen island?

I use it on the butcher block counter too over the dishwasher with excellent results.

As long as your kitchen island is made of wood, there should be no problem at all. Like LovesAmerica, I waited longer than the twenty minutes to allow it to soak in overnight then buffed to a sheen. I've used it on bamboo, as well, and am more than pleased with the results. Being a woodcarver, it's one of the best finishes I've found!

I have used this conditioner on wooden cutting boards and wooden utensils and it is by far the best conditioner I have found. I just ordered 2 more bottles. I recently saw a video (don't remember what site) use a plastic grocery bag to apply the conditioner (there is no waste as with a cloth) wait several hours, I know the instruction state 20 minutes, then buff to a high gloss finish. Buffing just takes a matter of minutes and you're done. The finish is absolutely beautiful. This conditioner also prevents moisture from penetrating into the wood. I would highly recommend this butcher block conditioner, you will not be disappointed.

I bought it specifically to use on a butcher block/kitchen island. I have no complaints.

Not personally. It's a product that should be safe for that application, however, as it is food grade. It has enough wax in it that it can be buffed out to a sheen, as well.

I used this product to coat and seal my kitchen island. It has stood up to my cooking, chopped, dicing. I used the gloss and I like it. I don't know how hard you are on your kitchen table, but I think, it will work. I hope it does if you decide to try it.

No I haven't. I've only used it for sauces and absolutely love it. It is so powerful though I would think it would work just fine.

I think it will. You would, most likely, have to leave a shelf out in order to accomodate the mixer. I do love this island. It is well made and gives me the storage I needed. I can store many serving pieces in it.

I have not done so, but the surface is large enough to place cooking pots or pans on. It may prove difficult to regulate the temperature of the stove top, but you might try spacers under your cooking pans , or just lift them off for a while if it gets too hot. I keep my unit from overheating by limiting the amount of wood I load in to it.

I love this hutch. I use it as an island in my kitchen. The interior is spacious. I have a small kitchen it works great.

I have not done that personally. I've also read comments saying yes and no. Since you raised it, I may try it. Over time dishwashing detergent may harm the non stick surface, but for the price I'd just buy another and use it without the dishwasher.

I really like mine -fits perfectly where an unused dishwasher once lurked beneath the counter- and while the top does not attach it is heavy enough not to go anywhere and the structure certainly seems sturdy. Dinky it is not, but my kitchen isn't large enough for an "island" so depending on the size of yours, it could appear a bit small.

No. You attach a small fabric cleaning pad to the base of the unit, and clean until the fabric is dirty, then discard it.Not very environmentally friendly of a product, but for small projects is OK. I would never consider using this for in the kitchen.

Hubby has, but I worry about the plastic feet on the product. It didn't hurt them at all, but our stove top burners may be closer together than yours too. Poor kitty ;-(

I think it may be possible to add wheels if you have the right skill set to do it. The island is quite heavy because of the marble top. You can actually slide the island around the kitchen w/o wheels. I have hardwood in my kitchen and sometimes I will push it over a little for parties.

If I were you, I would definitely call the Powell company to be sure. I love the top myself, but your idea of switching it out for a granite counter top would make this island even more beautiful! Postyour decision, I may consider doing this in the future as well.

Yes, I actually used it on my farmtables and island. I put a few coats on it and it did great.

I have not, and I have not had any problems thus far after quite a few months of use. No idea long term (yet). That said, I am an amateur cocktail maker and a professional with more knowledge on the matter might be able to provide a different view.

It would be hard, and to be honest the butcher block is the best part of the kitchen island. The rest is not solid wood, some part might be because it is heavy but the sides are def. compress wood. It not terrible quality but for the price it could be better.

Yes. I put it out on my patio and have it always set up to use. It is large so I don't like to use on my kitchen countertop.

Try contacting Linon directly at www.linon.com. The kitchen island is in tbeir 2014 catalogue, so they should have access to assembly instructions. Good luck!
