Needed to store my mixing bowls at a lower level than my overhead kitchen cabinets and wanted something to move big pots and roasting pans full of food around the kitchen.  We have used this type of shelving for years so knew we could assemble it. Helps to have two people. Critical that you put each shelf in the right order or the top cutting board, which is removable if you are moving something hot, won't lock into place.  We actually assembled it two times because I wanted the upward lip on the bottom shelf but have solved the problem of small pieces falling off by putting milk crates on that shelf. Baskets would work as well.  I need to get some mineral oil for the cutting board as recommended by others.
