Bought for additional counter space. I'm a single lady and this cart was easy to assemble. I found some all natural butcher block oil at Marshall's and applies it to the surface. The size and quality if the butcher block alone makes this cart worth twice the price. I use it mostly for rolling out dough, and the wheels stay locked and in place for my most vigorous rolling. I also live that this product is Eco friendly. Buy some cute dish towels on here to jazz it up and be ready for friends to ask where you got that cart!
