Kitchen Cart with Stainless Steel Top Base Finish: White

Kitchen Cart with Stainless Steel Top Base Finish: WhiteStainless top came STAINED, magnetic closure does not stay closed and pops open every time there is the smallest air pressure change. Handles are NOT metal, they are plastic painted to look like metal. If it were easier to return, I would have. But since it doesn't look like a TOTAL piece of crap overall, I gave it the extra star.

This cart is perfect for a tiny kitchen, however, it needs to be about 6" deeper to be fully functional. It was also hard to put together. The directions were not clear and the materials are so flimsy that they split when the screws were inserted. Overall, it looks good and you get what you pay for.

The item came faster than I expected but the package was damaged. I don't think it was from the company though I think it was from UPS. Anyway my husband put it together pretty fast and we kept the wheels off to place it as an kitchen island. All in all I love the cart and and even though I read the reviews I decided to try it for myself and im glad I did.

This cart looks nicer than it is. I bought it since I have a pretty nice one from two years ago and wanted to match it. It's a hair more than that one was, but time had passed.... but wow, this one is flimsy, many holes were inaccurately drilled (making it difficult to assemble with right angles and good tolerances), not all parts bags were marked correctly (nor all pieces) and the instructions were quite poorly translated/written.

If I hadn't put together the previous incarnation two years ago it would have been a lot harder to put together. The flimsiness/shoddiness of the materials is the real kicker, though.

The back piece of the cabinet is even thinner tagboard than before, and several of the pieces, even though pre-drilled, cracked as soon as the screws went into them to put together, before tightening. The pre-drilled holes for the casters were not straight, and some were too large and the screws won't tighten.

I live extremely rurally and needed the cart, so I glued and made do, but I would not purchase this item if there were any remotely similar item available. Several of the bags of screws and parts were missing items, and I had to use some of my own hardware to finish the assemlby--I could not leave a partially assembled cart in the middle of the kitchen for weeks waiting for replacement screws to arrive.

Now that it is together, it's holding up ok, but I would not try to stack a lot on the inner shelf nor load the bottom shelf with too much, either, making it not as useful as I had thought it would be.

If you're handy and cheap, this is OK; if you have more money to spend, get a different item.

Looks fine...but mine came with some wrong parts. I got 3 hinges for the left door and 1 for the right. I was able to take the pin out of one of the hinges and make new screw holes to get it to work. Also, the hinges didn't fit right so the doors wouldn't shut all of the way. I had to bend the hinges and raise the doors slightly to keep them from pinching.

It works decent now and looks fine, but definitely not worth the money.
