I was reluctant to buy this bar cart after viewing some of the reviews but I went ahead and bought and I am so glad I did. The cart is well built and very sturdy and looks great upon completion. It does take 3-4 hours to put together, which I did by myself. The mfg supplies an assembly booklet that has 36 steps completely defined and diagramed. If you follow it as outlined you will have no problems at all putting it together. Great metal top, plenty of storage and maneuvering and moving with the lockable wheels is a great feature. Great purchase and I would highly recommend.
