I purchased this cart because it was the right size, the right price, and the right look for my kitchen. It does everything I need it to - fill an empty space, provide an extra horizontal surface, hide a trash can (in the cabinet), and store odds and ends. It's pretty well-built, though not perfect; I've put together more cleanly constructed pieces before. However, now that it's all together it seems quite sturdy.

Two warnings are: As other reviewers describe, the top is laminate over wood, not granite as given in the description. Also, it is cumbersome to put together. Not unduly complicated, but preferably a multi-person project. (There was a line in the instructions that literally said "Better to have three people for this step.") Nevertheless, I got it together on my own in an afternoon, so with some ingenuity and patience it's possible.
