Flawed, but I love it. Here’s what you need to know.
I love this cart, but it is mildly flawed. I’d like to give you the opportunity to decide if those flaws are worth living with, just in case your expectations are super high.To start, I do want to say that this car was like $200 or something when I bought it, whereas comparable ones from other places, such as ikea, we’re $600+. Ya girl ain’t got that kind of scratch lyin’ around right now, so this was the obvious choice. But you also get what you pay for.Setup: this is NOT a one person job. I LOVE putting together flat pack furniture, and there’s something about using the visual diagrams for assembly that really clicks with me. That said, I’ve put together a lottttttt of flat pack as a result. Not just my own, but friend and places of employ have found out about my love and happily toss it to me to take care of.The way this is meant to be set up, there are some times where you have to manipulate screws and locks in ways that could only be done by a two person team. So, for four or so steps, you will need an extra set of hands. I’d say that it took maybe two hours total to set up, and that included unboxing, stubbornly attempting to put it together on my own for a while, and later realizing that there’s a part in the instructions that LIED and having to redo it.Speaking of, the diagram for the drawers is messed up. It essentially tells you to put the sides on incorrectly, so when you go to slide the drawers into their slots, you’ll feel like you’re going crazy when it doesn’t work. Originally, I was going to give you the best way to tell if you’d done it correctly or not, but I set this up a couple months ago and have forgotten my own advice. Sorry.QUALITY/CONSTRUCTION: overall, it’s actually surprisingly sturdy. But there are a couple of noticeable flaws, like one of the doors having gap where two pieces of material weren’t fused together properly. Also, the doors actually don’t line up with one another and there’s literally nothing you can do about it, so one door will be slightly higher than it’s partner, but they’ll at least both still close. Also, because the doors are “attached” by... hmmm... having some metal pegs slid into a metal hinge but not otherwise permanently secured, if you’re a total dunce you can accidentally detach said doors and spend a few irritating minutes attempting to line up the pegs and holes again.Also, I don’t know how I missed this when purchasing it, but the whole thing is much thinner than I expected. While looking at measurements, I spent so much time making sure that I found a pice with the correct length to fit my space, I overlooked the depth. The interior capacity is about the depth of the long side of a 2 liter soda bottle. I was planning to store all of my lesser-used kitchen machinery and all my Tupperware inside, but it’s not quite as roomy as expected. Still, INCREDIBLY useful.OVERALL: for a much more affordable price than anything else I was looking at, this has brought me much joy. It’s super super sturdy, has given me a better way to organize certain objects as well as give me additional storage and counter space, and it looks great! ... as long as you don’t get too up close and personal with the details.

Very Satisfied Customer
Start off by saying I'm a 70 yr old single woman. When I received the box i noticed some dings, rips, and tape holding the box together was deteriorated and falling apart. I took pics just in case there was an issue. To my amazement, this kitchen cart was Very Well packaged. I removed all parts, inspected each piece, counted and made sure all parts were there (and they were) before starting this project. I followed the directions that was included and had only one problem. I put the first drawer together wrong, my fault, promptly corrected. I must say both drawers glide in smoothly and are even. They don"t hit the top when closing, as some people have stated. All 4 cupboard doors are even and close smooth and tight. I put this thing together myself, with no help at all and it all went together very nicely. It took me 5-6 hours to put this together. Best of all it looks really nice, is very sturdy, and has absolutely no flaws in it at all. I am a VERY HAPPY customer!!!

Looks great, not hard to put together, but needs better door magnets
First things first: it looks great, has a solid feel to it and it took 2 hours and a half to build. My partner and I did all the work and we are not very much experienced with this type of projects. Just put a big blanket on the floor and make sure you have all the pieces (one type of screw seems to be missing, but it is inside the bag with the metal handles, so don't freak out!)People complaining about the instructions are being unfair. They are clear enough if you pay attention to how the pieces look in the drawing and which part of the piece is the front and which one the back (they have an arrow pointing the front on the sticker with the letter of the piece).The best approach is not to screw everything all the way when you put it together first. You will notice that it is best to have room for wiggling things around, especially the back panels, which can be a pain in the butt to slide in and keep into place. But if you move them around firmly and then tighten things up, you will have everything into place. And remember that the more pieces you add, the firmer the overall structure.The only bad thing is that the magnet for the doors are not very good and the doors keep opening. A couple of new cabinet magnets are between $6-10 on Amazon. It should be a 10 min. fix.Bottom line: good quality, solid, it can be built in a couple of hours, don't screw everything all the way until you are on step 4 or 5, and get new magnets for the door. Good investment overall!

it's pretty heavy so it doesn't really move on its own
The package arrived quickly. I have to say I am more than impressed with the quality of the unit and all the parts. The wheels lock but I think a lock on each wheel would've been more convenient. Either way, it's pretty heavy so it doesn't really move on its own. The assembling instructions were fairly clear and took about 2 hours to build.Overall, very happy with the unit, it looks great as an island in our kitchen.

Amazing!
This thing is beautiful! For the price you can't go wrong. I actually got it for 248$ when it was on warehouse clearance. It had a few cracks in the wood unfortunately. But not enough to notice and since I didnt pay full price I didnt mind. Great storage, great look and great price 5/5

Very nice Kitchen Island/Cart, Great for small apartment
The quality is good but not perfect. One of the doors was damaged but it wasn't big issue.It's not easy to assembled it together and in need of two people in most of the process. Took us about 2 hours to put together.The result is beautiful and it's a great solution for small apartments when you need more storage room and to separate the kitchen from the living room.We got the product on sale for $350 and I think it's a great price for this. The regular price is too much in my opinion and if you have the time and patient, wait until it's on sale.
