We bought this cart for my mom who moved into a small apartment with a tiny kitchen that had no counter space. This was perfect!  It tripled her counterspace and added a ton of storage with the cabinets underneath. It looked hard to assemble (had a million parts) but I hired a handyman to assemble it and he had no problem at all. I bought the granite top and it is really nice. Great value based on what I saw at stores around town.
