   I compared several other kitchen carts and I liked this one the best because it matches my other cabinet decor and handles. I also liked the dimensions. It's not too large so it fits nicely in my kitchen next to my stove. I keep my cookbooks on the shelves below and I have a dish towel on the rack. I don't think it was made for paper towels. I keep potholders in the drawer. The casters look pretty good although it still moves around slightly on my tile floor. My toddler likes opening and closing the doors so hopefully it will withstand that. Overall I'm pleased with my purchase.

   Nice ** Inexpensive **easy to put together

   This cart works just fine for my purposes (keeping my microwave on top, cookbooks and other kitchen sundries in the cabinet). I was able to put it together pretty easily, although fitting the top back brace into the assembly required my pressing down on it with about 3/4 my body weight in order to get the dowels to pop into the holes. I was trying to figure out why that was, but I still can't find the design flaw, as all the pieces seem level to my eye. Also, the pre-drilled holes on the bottom for the casters seem to have been drilled by someone didn't know what a square was, or who had maybe been drinking. At any rate, they did not match up very well with the holes in the caster brackets. I was still able to get them to fit OK, as the wood is soft enough that I could still screw the casters into place without matching up the holes perfectly. Additionally, the paper towel holder on the side of the cart (at least according to the picture on the box, that's what it is) is too short to fit a roll of paper towels, so I'll have to figure out something else to do with it. My *primary* complaint is actually the size and design of the drawer. It is very shallow, and due to the lack of a locking piece on the runner, it will pull clean out if you're not careful. I was hoping to put my silverware tray in there, but I think I'll only be able to use it for things like napkins or placemats. Oh well, for $100 and change I suppose it's pretty decent for the price.
