I have a small house and kitchen. I had an awkward small space between my stove and the wall that wasn't big enough to install a cabinet in. I bought one of these and then had a piece of quartz countertop top to fit on top (same as the rest of my kitchen) and glued it on top. It is a little top heavy even without the quartz but it's not like you need to pull it out all the way so at least it leans against the wall or stove if needed. Looks so much better now because it looks like there's a cabinet there plus it's a little extra space to set stuff on when I'm cooking.
