I purchased this for my daughter and we are both very pleased with the product. I had a friend help me put it together while she was at work. We didn't notice the written directions until we were finished putting it together. But he's put several things together before so it wasn't a problem. It's so sturdy and appears to be durable. The height is just perfect for food prep. It's also a perfect size and she loves that she can roll it out of the way.
