I just hung a small TV in the kitchen and I needed something small to put under it to hold the remote and cover the plug in. This piece works well for that. It would also do well as a microwave cart, or other kitchen storage. It doesn't look super kitchen like and I like that. I am not a fan of the typical microwave cart. They can look cheap, but this is more cool. It moves easily and is not too hard to put together. Remember to lay everything out and follow the directions. It will take an hour, at most. I like that the top has a granite top and the top is heavy. This is a sleek contemporary piece and it looks pretty classy in my kitchen. I am very happy with this purchase.
