Reading some of the reviews I was skeptical buying this unit. Wow, am I glad I did. Perfect addition to my kitchen. Item was packed very well. (3 kitchen bags of styrofoam). Assembly instructions were good, although I will admit the drawings are missing some detail. Had to unassemble and assemble correctly twice (not a big deal). The finished product looks great, is very sturdy and I had no issues with anything not working properly. If you were on the fence jump off it and buy this wonderful cart!!!
