This is a very nice looking (except the wheels that look a bit cheap compared with the rest) cart, is very easy to assemble with a few quirks that reduced this from a 5 star to 4
It has a real wood top, is tall enough for it to be very comfortable to use, light enough to move around and big enough to fill with more stuff that you planned to fill it with
Good size drawer and shelves
Is mostly made of particle board and like all items of this type, you MUST be really careful not to ever tighten any joint or connection, this kit does not require any glue, but anyone that has put these together more than once, we know...yeah, is not really designed for many house moves...but having a bottle of gorilla glue... is Better than regular wood glue as it expands a bit and will compensate for those oops when something gets stripped, just add a drop to every connection or screw and will add strength and prevent anything from coming loose later on.
Now onto why is missing a star...
The drawer, while is a good size and we all know there should be nothing heavy...once is set, it will not come out...its safety slide stop is a wooden dow that slides in the back of the drawer, and is almost imposible to remove...and if you do, after a few times it will become loose and fall out, compromising the whole point, Also, it slides in and out on a square piece of wood...cost cutting anyone? I would have prefered as regular metal slider that gave me the option to remove the drawer for cleaning as such.
Wheels, yeah...they are cheap...they look cheap
Add some fabric or rubber feet (thin, square ones) to the legs of this, you will thank me, it needs it, makes is more secure and prevent wood marks on your floor
I like this thing, the few issues are not a deal breaker and as I said...get some glue and some rubber/fabric feet and you will love this.
