Holy box of parts! Looking at the pieces, you could get the impression that this will be flimsy, but once put together, this is not bad. I plan to use a cutting board or cutting mat since a knife could easily scratch the top. It is butcher block looking, not a butcher block. The storage is good and the towel bar is great! The point of this purchase was to have a little more storage and counter space, and for that it will be great. The wheels allow me to move it around if needed. I am glad I got it.
