I ended up not keeping this cart (sold it to someone else), but only because it didn't quite fit our style. It is definitely modern, and the rest of our dining room has more of a traditional/classic feel to it. I originally thought it would blend in well, but it was a bit too modern. However, if you are searching for a modern bar cart, I don't think you can go wrong with this one. It is solid, sturdy, easy to assemble, and it does look nice.
