I bought this to function as my artist taboret / workstation and it's great! I was able to drill through my wooden tabletop easel through the tabletop and secure the easel with bolts and wing nuts. The drawer has nice storage and when I pull it out, it makes the perfect place to lay out my studio tray of pastels. I've put bamboo dishracks side by side in the bottom shelf so I can stand up canvases and have them in easy reach. The upper shelf is great for laying down paper and keep it flat. All in all, I love it!
