The cart is very easy to put together, nice looking and is pretty sturdy.  I can easily fit the larger laundry detergent and fabric softener bottles on top and other laundry items on the second shelf.  I use the small laundry basket to toss used towels in when there are not enough to make a full load. The cart slides into the space between the wall and my washer.  Very happy that I went with this model.
