3/4 inch thick slab used on the counter, that is all you see from in & around the sink bowl edges. But, the outer edges of the counter has a 1/2 inch trim added underneath it to create the thickness around the outside edges of the cabinet... so, from the front and side views you can see a horizontal seam... Mostly because it is not book matched and are from differennt slabs as the thickness seems to differ. It still is a very good look for the price. It comes attached so your only other option is to have a stone mason make a top to your spefications for a cabinet without a top... $$$$ it will no doubt cost more. Also note: the back splash came detached it can be glued down with silicone after the unit is completely installed.

One piece was the back splash, and the other was the sink portion. And yes one needed to be glued together.

Not really. I put it together myself, having someone to help would have been nice. Took a couple of hours. I was taking my time to make sure I got the pieces in the right places the first time and wouldn't have to redo anything.

I do not remember having any problems. but I have done a lot of assembling of other items, so either you got a defective part, I got lucky, or it is just practice makes if not perfect, at least easier, but I would suggest calling the manufacturer and get a replacement.

I know, it need lot of imagination to get it assembled... gosh, I don't remember how I got it at the end, but I did reassemble a few time to get it right. ==" and the end product is ok. Sorry, I wish I could help. :(

There are reviews all over the internet of bad choice. Now, I have no clue what to buy. Can someone help me, PLease... Which is the better made marble run and for its longevity~Thanks, Grandma Tootles

Yes it all comes in pieces! :) the tubes are sepret from the plates that holds the cake you must assemble and the fittings are all the same size so you can mix and match as you like. The one EXCEPTION is the bottom tier it stands on its own feet about an inch tee I'm the table so if you plan on using the smaller tiers as the bottom you will have to place on the larger plate or place small feet on the bottom of the other plates EASY FIX use four large marbles and super glue them to bottom of tier allowing for stability;) good luck also you can put lights and decor in the riser tubes it looks awesome Yes it all comes in pieces! :) the tubes are sepret from the plates that holds the cake you must assemble and the fittings are all the same size so you can mix and match as you like.

I haven't really used it because it is in our downstairs unfinished basement. But it is truly marble and there is no documentation that the marble was sealed. So I plan to seal it before we use it. (but it came in perfect condition).

As seen from what I have, both sides has been glued quite strongly. (I hardly see any space between sides) Unless you would forcely cut it with knife or something, it doesn't seem to come apart easily.

Yes - no problem there. In fact, I did get one (I've bought several) that was almost TOO loose! Discreet application of super glue fixed that...

Same thing happened to me. I hope to be able to glue it again. Don't you think it can be done?

Well i did not buy any marble tiles...I only got travertine and it is amazing, but never ever buy from two different companies...they look completely different if they are not from the same place...oracle tile was amazing...then I needed six more and somehow marble and things inserted itself in my email...if I need more....i guess advertisement trick to make me think this is where I ordered from....never bothered to check since it was clear...do you need more tules...blah blah... I purchased and they were such a poor quality and very thin....about half an inch thinner than those by oracle....so stick with one company throughout....

Yes the marble is the colure it shows in the picture. However when I received my pastry board it was broken, the company sent a replacement, but it was also broken.

If you watch the video they show an example of that. You can glue 2 pieces together but make sure you use the correct glue. Do not use PVC pipe glue.

It is two approx. 3/4" pieces of marble attached together. However, the seam is very minimal due to the beveling of the countertop (as you can see from the other customer responses, some people do not even realize it is two slabs).Thank you!KBC

maybe some people were messing with it. if you don't know how to solve it take it apart and back together correctly

I have not had that happen. I think the customer service at Geotoys is pretty good. I suggest getting to their website and contacting them. Perhaps they can replace the puzzle for you. Good luck!

OMG! Whatta they have gorillas puttin' these things together, lol?? This thing couldn't have been any tighter! Had to use 2 pr of pliers (one hold, one twist). First succeeded in removing the end piece (grey with black ring) which accomplished nothing. Tried again, this time twisting the longer grey, center piece (no blk ring)...the wrong way, of course (I was pretty aggravated by this time, not thinking), which tightened it much more than it was ever meant to & cracked it about 3/4 in. The good news is still works! The telescoping pole stays in place by ONLY TIGHTENING IT SLIGHTLY...ya know, the way it should've been put together in the first place! OMG!
