I read a lot of the reviews for this product before buying it so I was both optimistic and nervous. There were enough positive reviews regarding the materials quality that I was convinced it must really be made of solid wood. On the other hand, there were a fair number of negative comments regarding how well the parts fit together. My expectations were exceeded in every way. I have assembled many products more complicated than this one and I do a lot of handy work (my brother and I just finished building my house from scratch), so I'm pretty good at being able to identify whether or not an item is a quality product. This storage cart is a quality product, especially for the price. During my research, I found a very similar product for $100 more but decided to take a chance on this one and I'm glad I did.

The item arrived well packaged and in perfect condition. Each piece is individually wrapped and there are lots of Styrofoam layers between and around the pieces to prevent damage during shipping. Though the assembly instructions consist of a bunch of pictures without descriptive text, the pictures are very clear and assembly was a breeze. All that's required is a Philips screwdriver and the included hex wrench. Just take your time and follow the pictures carefully. Some of the pieces look very similar but aren't identical so you need to install them in the right place.

The cart pieces are solid wood (not particle board or MDF) so the screws drive firmly into the pieces and hold it all together nice and tightly. The only veneer is the back panel and the side panels (oh yeah, and the bottom of the drawer). These resemble thin pieces of paneling that slide into grooves routed into the solid wood frame and it's all very sturdy when it's completed. When I got it all put together, the right side door wouldn't close completely because the hinges were sprung inward. I simply popped the door back off and tapped the hinges outward with a hammer to "unspring" them. Upon replacing the door, it now fit perfectly and closed completely. I've included a few pictures of the finished product.

One pointer I would give for someone who hasn't had much experience assembling prefab. furniture is that you not be too aggressive about tightening all the fittings as you go. It's better to get it all together barely tightened and then go back and uniformly tighten the fittings making a few circuits on all the fasteners. This will sometimes alleviate issues with the final product not fitting together squarely.

I would definitely recommend this product and would buy it again if I needed another similar item.

When I saw the beat up box I almost wanted to send it back! It weighs about 53 lbs. but I hauled it in and got started. I took a while to get it out of the box and all the parts out and labeled but they were all perfect. I am a little 67 year old lady so it took me about 2 1/2 hours to put it together alone but it was so well worth it! It is really wood and none of that pressed board cheap material. Instructions say it takes 2 people but it can be done with the POWER OF ONE! Definitely decent picture directions-easy to follow. Best part is that the hinges are already on the doors and slide right in place.
I am so pleased with this product and got more than I expected which is AWESOME!

NICE CART!

First, let me say the box arrived in perfect condition and the packing was very good. All parts were accounted for so the paperwork thoughtfully supplied by Winsome so you could order missing or damaged parts was not needed. .

The cart is the size we were looking for to put in our fifth wheel. It has a pretty decent sized drawer which was important to us since we lacked top drawer space in the fifth wheel. (3"D x19"W X 13"D interior dimensions)

I am an experienced woodworker and do it your selfer and this cart went together in about 35-40 minutes with about 35 seconds worth of extra hands from my lady. I checked the fit of the pieces first and then used a light coat of glue when assembling to give the thing extra sturdiness. What is it they say now ? Easy peasy?

Every part fit perfectly and the only blemish on anything was a small patch of filler on one side of the towel bar. Wouldn't you know that through inattention I'd manage to install it that side up. No big deal- I can touch it up with a bit of mineral oil.

The front doors have just the tiniest bit of rub when you close them but the overall product looks great and with two nice slatted shelves inside, it's very functional. Two small things that I think would improve it (and I will probably do with mine) is installing a reinforcement slat under the middle of the relatively thin drawer bottom and installing better (rubber) casters, though the existing casters roll well enough. I'm just always a little leery of plastic in moving parts and in addition the plastic ones won't give the best traction on the vinyl flooring in our fifth wheel.

I looked at a lot of carts before deciding on this one and it was notable how many poor reviews almost all had, including this one.There is no question that damage in shipping, parts that don't fit or poorly finished elements are annoying. But judging from the number of people who submit questions that are clearly already answered in the product description, I have to say that I believe there is a lot of user error going on. If you don't read carefully, you can't blame the product.

BTW, with this cart, the pictorial instructions are more than adequate and if you get the correct top and bottom rails connected to the first side, you have the project well in hand. So pay close attention to items F, G. H. and I. Each is different.

In summary, we are both very pleased with the appearance and the quality at this price point. I would recommend this cart to anyone looking for a good (sturdy) cart in this size.

Two final thoughts - rub a little candle wax on the wooden drawer slides, particularly if your drawer feels a little tight. It will slide more smoothly.
- and yes I don't like the allen wrench either but it happened that I didn't have the allen bits for my impact driver - gotta get those.

Ordered 12 days ago and received it today. Put it together in little over an hour by myself with some supervision by my wife. She always seems to wear her white hard hat when a job needs to be done. Instructions were very easy to follow. Every piece fit just as it should, with heavy duty screws and wooden dowels holding things together. Solid wood top, drawer and front doors. Sides and back are faux wood slider as is drawer bottom. This is a very nice cart and will hold a lot of weight. I bought it to place my 10 gal fish tank on. Would work well in any room especially the kitchen. If I could give it 6 stars I would.

This is a good piece of furniture. I am rating this as a 3 star because we were surprised that there were no bottom to the piece. If we knew there was no bottom, we would off bought a different item. Also, the metal piece on the door was assembled the wrong way by the supplier. It took us a while to figure out why the door wouldn’t shut close and then we noticed that the metal piece was assembled the wrong way so the magnets weren’t able to keep the door closed.

The quality of this cart for the price, suprised me. Solid wood, well finished. It was easy to assemble with clear illustrations. Definitely recommended.

---

quite sturdy and well designed, attractive finish....excellent for smaller kitchens ...assembly is not complicated..

---

really like it, but front doors were about a half inch to wide. Cut one down on hinge side and it fits perfect. I didn't have a saw to do it so had to use wood chisel and sander. The rest of the cabinet was easy and straight forward to put together.

meuble très beau et pratique, jadore mon achat

just what we were looking for. Took some time putting together but looks good. There is an issue with one of the hinges being bent which results in having to close both doors together. Could have contacted the company but willing to put up with it.

Nice design, product is study. Good quality for the money. I would not hesitate to buy again.
