I love this kitchen cart! It's super cute and fits perfectly in the small space in our kitchen. We use it as a coffee/tea station which freed up tons of counter space. My husband put it together so I can easily give this 5 stars because I didn't do any of the labor. However, he said it only took 1.5hrs to put together alone and that the directions weren't too bad. He did mention that it felt a bit flimsy until it was completely together so it might be easier with extra hands on deck! The cabinet and shelf are extra bonus storage space. I think it is definitely a good value for the price and doesn't as inexpensive as it was!
