I removed a formica penninsula in my historic duplex apartment (built in 1827) and this cart fit the space perfectly and stylistically works with the historic nature of my kitchen. I love that is has two drawers since my kitchen had only one drawer. I set the top shelf at the highest point and my KitchenAid mixer fits perfectly on the bottom shelf. This cart is really so functional. It was also really easy to put together. I'm really pleased.
