I am very pleased with my Ivsnhoe Kitchen Cart. It took my husband and I about five hours to completely put it together.  (We are retired and we needed many breaks).  I especially love that I can open the drawers and cabinets from both sides!  The only concern is the wood top. Should I put something on it so it does not stain?  I know I cannot use it as a cutting board, but  can I use it for a mixing table?  I also love the fact that I can pull out the table from the one side. MY grandkids can sit there to have a snack, or I can use it to hold the desserts!
