I got this cart to hold a table top gas grill I got from Cost co.  My space in every direction was limited, and I am short & needed a lowish cart so I could still use my grill safely.  The bottom shelf is large & very functional, I use the hooks for my BBQ utensils, but I put the propane tank on the ground under the non-foldable leaf because the weight on one side of the cart was not a good idea.  There's a few inches of counter space in front of my grill to place  a rag or tongs etc., while I cook.  The handle is stout & pushing the cart around or into position is super easy.  The top of the cart is slightly textured so nothing could easily slip off.  The moveable tray is great for my squeeze bottles or my beer. The side tray is a must for putting your platter/plate on while cooking and my husband says it is very well built, especially for the price, and came together in very little time.
