This cart is sturdy and made of solid wood. It was very easy to assemble. All you need is a screwdriver for the drawer pulls. The required Allen wrench is provided with the rest of the hardware. The instructions for assembly was well-written with helpful diagrams. There are extra screws and washers, which is better than missing screws and washers. Mineral oil was also included for seasoning the butcher block top. The cart looks just like the picture on the website. Im quite pleased with this item!
