Great looking product, well built, a few imperfections
I received this kitchen cart today and immediately put it together and moved it into the kitchen. Overall, its a really great product but a few imperfections and a problem with part of the assembly keep it from getting the full 5 stars. Ill break it down below:
Packaging: DEFINITELY one of the easier huge packages to open. Its done in a way that you just need to cut down the tape and everything opens easily, no awkward pulling things out or lifting a super heavy box at an odd angle.
Assembly: From the time I started opening the box until I put the last pieces together, it took 2 hours. I have put together TONS of furniture and exercise equipment purchased online and these by far are the clearest instructions. Even each bag of screws was clearly labeled as to what they were for. The only problem I had was with assembling the drawers. Instructions say not to use power tools but there are no pre-drilled holes for where the bottom of the drawers go into the sides so I had to use a drill on a low setting. Also hanging the doors - you literally just slide them into the fittings, there is nothing more to it than that. The doors are a little crooked. I have take pictures of it at the top and bottom to show the difference. Not too noticeable from a distance.
Final product - Only problem is mine had a big scratch a couple inches long on the top, photo included. Thats pretty disappointing. But its a big heavy product that I just put together so its not worth sending back over that. Aside from that, it looks pretty good! I tested out the leaf and it sits up evenly and is sturdy. The drawers are pretty deep and the shelves are adjustable so its pretty roomy! Overall Im quite happy with it.
