Sturdy and functional. Casters are top notch quality. I bought this to use as a portable desk because my room is about 9' x 12' with 2 notched out areas that add another 6 sq.ft. It is handy to roll this cart to my desk and fold it up when not needed. Also lay a board across the top to make a level surface on top of the rims on either side. Serves my purpose very well. In addition, the cart folds with just one hand. I am pleased with the quality of this item.
