I absolutely LOVE this serving cart!  I am using it in my office as a coffee cart vs. bar cart. I am going to have a few books on the bottom shelf, but I have not gotten there yet.  As you can see, the width of the bar cart truly provides enough space for multiple items.  This piece is beautiful, functional, and priced under what most bar carts retail for.  It's a win-win-win in my book!
