Its width is the same depth of a standard kitchen counter.  So it fits perfectly at the end of the counter.  The hardware to assemble it is beefy so the assembled unit is very sturdy.  The step by step directions were easy for me to put together.  And I am a 75 yr old woman. Anyone could assemble it.  The 2nd to the bottom shelf rolls out for easy removal of larger items.  Besides being so functional, it looks good too.  I am 100% satisfied with this kitchen cart.
