We bought this in white to replace a worn out cart that we use as a stereo table on our backyard porch.  It's extremely sturdy as it is made of metal and the top shelf holds our stereo system perfectly.  We love the shelf below as we can put cute decorations or plants on it.   So far we are very happy with this purchase and hope that it lasts longer than the prior cart we bought at Overstock  a few years ago.
