I just put this together. It took much longer than anticipated because the instructions were in pictures with no written explanation. Some of the instructions for attaching the top and putting together the drawer were difficult to understand without written explanations. Additionally, major problems were that some of the holes shown in the pictures did not match what was pre-drilled, and some screws would not work in the pre-drilled holes. I had to improvise, and some areas, especially the top and the drawer, are not very sturdy.

There are also a few chips on the exterior, and a scratch on the top, which will show if I place the cart where originally intended. Also, I don't think I will store anything heavy in this.

This is a shame, because this has the potential to be an attractive and useful cart.

Mine arrived broken and unusable - the whole left corner of the wood top had splintered off. :( I am now in the middle of trying to navigate the return process with Amazon, and they are trying to charge me for returning an item that arrived broken. Not the best.

Very impressed with the quality and design of this product. All the pieces fit together easily and went together quickly. What impressed me the most is that all the pieces, including the parts that fit inside, like the drawer rails and the drawer bottoms were sealed and very sturdy. I would recommend this to anyone.

This cart is much more solid than I expected it to be! The top is solid wood, the middle shelf is solid wood, the side frames are solid wood. It has a nice finish overall. There was no damage to my unit when it arrived. I found the instructions to be clear -- it took me about an hour to assemble. The only drawback is the base shelf (inside the doors) is somewhat flimsy. I plan on reinforcing it by cutting a thin piece of plywood and laying it over it. I'm pleased.

I have purchased quite a bit of home assembly furniture, but this was by far the easiest. The wood is high quality and the construction is very sturdy and easy to assemble. The only problem I have with this item, and I do mean "only", is that the instructions can be quite confusing if you are not mechanically inclined.

The table cart looks nice once it is assembled. It is fairly solid, except for the bottom of the lower compartment which is a bit thin and weak. You wouldn't be able to store anything heavy in the bottom compartment without reinforcing it. Also the top drawer does not have a stop to prevent the whole drawer from sliding out if you are not careful.
