I received the cart earlier this afternoon and I just finished putting it together. It took me about 1.5 hours to assemble by myself. The granite top was very heavy, but I managed to get it into place with little struggle. Like other reviews stated, the only downside to this piece is that the drawers are off by about 1/4 inch and they are not deep at all. To get the drawers to close without scraping the underside of the granite, I gently hammered the metal slide on the outside of the drawer up a small amount. This allowed the drawer to sit a little lower and open/close more easily. Overall, the cart is perfect for my needs. It offers me shelf space for my microwave and additional counter space in my tiny kitchen.
