Bought this to use less as a kitchen cart as more as a coffee cart. It comfortably holds a grinder, kettle, scale, and mug with some tools on the top, and beans and other fancy-schmancy accoutrements fit neatly on the shelves below. The drawer holds filters and some other small things.

Its bamboo, so its much harder than wood, and I wouldnt use it as a cutting surface. You would, though—if you didnt care about your knives. 

It was relatively easy to assemble on a kitchen table, although a second pair of hands would have been helpful. I also lost a screw at one point and was equally frustrated and angry at myself, but there was some extra hardware included. Unclear whether this was intentional or just as likely to happen as one too few screws being included.
