Hello, the kitchen cart had a number of damaged pieces, the wood is very light and I wonder if that's why it had gouges in it.  It had a lot of gouges in a few pieces and the slatted rack had a slat that was very crooked.  I was disappointed in the quality, not what I have come to expect from Wayfair.  My husband and I examined the pieces and decided to assemble it as we figured we could put items on the damaged parts so they wouldn't show.  Returning is a hassle, so we kept the cart.  However, if I had viewed the cart in person prior to purchasing I would not have purchased it.  I do not feel it was worth the 100.00 I paid for it.
