This cart arrived very quickly and was easy to assemble.  The quality is good and when completed, is very sturdy.  I gave 4 stars because of the quality of the wheels.  They are poorly made and will probably need replacing fairly soon. No sanding was required before applying a polyurethane coat.  This is pretty small but fit my needs as a shelf for a toaster oven in our guest house.  The extra shelving will be appreciated.
