3-drawer Drop Leaf Kitchen Cart

I got this cart to add more working space to my small galley kitchen. Went together very easily in a few hours. It added a lot of storage space too - in the cabinet part I was able to put bread machine, rice cooker, toaster, dog food, small mixer and immersion blender. The drawers are quite deep as well and provide storage for kitchen towels, miscellaneous utensils and dinner napkins. The top of this is very hard wood (rubber wood) and quite nice looking. It has a leaf in the back that you can put up that almost doubles the work ares. The casters are nice and have a locking mechanism. As I had a very specific sized space to put this in I did not attache the towel rack and spice rack to the sides. It measures 43.25 inches wide without these items attached. Overall I am quite pleased with the quality of this and the price was wonderful. It certainly does not look inexpensive, or indeed like something you put together yourself.

Functionality: If you don't mind chips, scratches, and flaws on a piece that is still functional, then perhaps you won't mind this item. It is still newly assembled in my kitchen. Thus far it has been functional, for the most part. I haven't used it yet with the leaf extended, but I have at least tried to extend it, and it looks nice and flat. One cabinet door will not close. There is a magnet that is supposed to holds both doors shut, but one keeps swinging back open. I don't know what causes this. Perhaps the door is warped, or one of the hinges is unevenly attached. Either way, I find a diy solution for the cabinet, because I prefer not to deal with returning it at this point. Overall, I needed this cart for storage, and it has met that need. Service: I think the folks who shipped the cart could do a better job of examining their product before sending it out. Otherwise, I have only great things to say about Overstock Customer Support. When I complained about chips and scratches, they were willing to do whatever it took to make me happy, whether it was order replacement parts, pay for a return pickup, etc. If you are picky about scratches and quality, this may not be the right purchase for you. If you expect flaws, and just need storage, and don't mind this price, then I think you'll be happy with this cart. Either way, I continue to do business with overstock, because their customer service is friendly and fair, and fairly hassle-free. Assembly: The hinges and much of the other hardware come already attached to the parts. For example, you needn't attach the drawer tracks to the veneer housing. There is one moment during assembly when two people were required, otherwise I managed most of it on my own. I'm a fairly small female, and it wasn't really that heavy to stand up and move around. I definitely wouldn't have been able to carry the initial package, so make sure at least two people handle the delivery. Size: The dimensions are exactly as stated. Just a tip if you plan to buy this and use it for silverware: The drawers are too small to house any standard sized silverware organizer. However, the drawers are deep, and can hold plenty of other things.

I cannot begin to tell you how conflicted I was when I was reading the comments about this kitchen cart/ island thing. So many had terrible reviews and experiences saying that the item they received came damaged, missing pieces, had a ton of manufacturing flaws, poor or inadequate instructions and was a total waste of money. The I saw a ton of raving reviews and even photos of people's finished products and it looked so nice! I was so hesitant to put my money and faith in a product that had such mixed reviews. I chose to purchase this cart based on the most RECENT reviews which seemed to be mostly good. And I'm glad I did! First, this thing came so fast! I ordered it on 9/4 realllly late at night and received it on 9/8 in the morning. I had just been sent a shipping confirmation that same morning so I was super surprised to see it at my door so quickly! Also, might I add that the delivery guy is incredibly strong because this box was 123 pounds and he just carried it over his shoulder like it was no biggie. I could barely push that thing across the living room floor. I would like to make a point to say that the final product looks magnificent, BUT I did take the time to review all instructions and make sure all my parts were there first. I also used a little bit of deductive reasoning to work through some small parts of the picture instructions that were a bit confusing. I also put my own handles on the doors and drawers so I feel like it definitely livened the piece up a bit. This took a couple hours to put together with two people working on it. It definitely can be put together with just one person but I think the work time would be closer to three hours. The quality that I received is actually not bad at all. It's obviously not craftsman perfection but for something that is so mass produced I think it is pretty darn nice. There are only a few small things that I noticed about the quality. One of the main things I noticed are that the seams on the doors and fronts of the drawers are not all perfectly flush to one another. Some have bigger gaps in the seams than others. The hinges on the doors are also slightly off so the doors hand a little lopsided. You only noticed this when you're super close up. From far away it looks flawless. Another thing I find kind of strange is the little wooden pieces that are intended for holding the drop leaf in place when it is fully extended. They seem like an afterthought and get in the way of the functionality of the rest of the piece. Like if I kept the wooden piece in its hole, I can't fully open the top drawer. Things like that really annoy me. As you can see from the picture, I actually took the extendable leaf and turned it into a shelf that I installed right above the cart. I knew I wasn't going to pull the cart out from against the wall so it seems pointless to have the drop leaf there if it was never going to get used. I think it looks fantastic and really makes my new cart look like it belongs in that space. So for anyone looking to purchase this item. I think it's worth the risk. I found it to be a wonderful addition to my kitchen and I couldn't be happier right now :)

We were disappointed with this purchase and chose to return for a refund because of the following items. The packaging was not sufficient to prevent damage to the item. Several pieces were damaged. The high gloss finish was not applied consistently leaving edges of the product with a rough uneven look. As we examined the pieces that came out of the first box, we found a fly baked right into the finish. Other pieces also had foreign material baked into them which hinted at a poor quality control for this product. We were so disappointed that we requested to return this product for a refund.

I was very impressed by the quality of this kitchen cart...especially for the cost!! I have seen similar items in stores for $500+ and not nearly as nice as this cart. The leaf provides an excellent added surface area which I just used for serving up a buffet style dinner for some guests at our home. Made our dining room table more open and roomy for our friends to visit without the table being so cluttered. Because it is on wheels, it made it very easy to bring the buffet set up next to the table so I could easily pass plates to the guests. This item was packaged very well and arrived damage free. Pretty easy to put together...my wife & I did so in about 1 hour of time. The savings of $200 made having to assemble this well worth the effort!! Thanks O.co!!

Everything arrived package very well and nothing came scratched or damaged and after a rocky start to assembly, this cart turned out pretty great! The small screws (F, I think) that are provided to attach hinges connecting the cart top to the leaf were absolute junk! Several of them broke off at the head leaving the rest of the screw still in the wood. You can see this in the photos. This is unacceptable! After 2 visits to the hardware store to get stronger, thicker screws the rest of the assembly went fairly easy with a few steps in odd order. Also be careful to thoroughly clean whatever work space you are using for assembly. I must have had some unseen dirt on my floor and with all the headache attaching the top, there are now small scratches in the top that need to buffed out. I would maybe recommend putting a sheet down if you have hardwood floors like me. There are some other odd things with the construction of this cart that I would change if I could: the drawers are shallow and there is wasted space (seems to be the case on all furniture from China these days) and the spice rack is not a full shelf. There is a several inch gap between the bottom of the shelf and the cart....it's very odd! On a positive note: I cannot understand why so many people complain about the leaf not staying up. I'm guessing they did not put the pieces for the leaf on correctly? There are two square wooden pieces that pull out to hold the leaf up. They are very sturdy and the leaf is perfectly flat. You are supposed to attach 2 dowels pointing down to the ends of the supports so that they don't slide all the way back inside the cabinet when the leaf is down. I'm guessing those having issues are putting them in backwards? It's common sense, people...But when you have very little storage space in your kitchen and no counter space, this thing is pretty fantastic despite the difficulties. I can now actually prepare meals without knocking everything on the floor!

I am quite pleased with this cart. The wood top is easy to clean, the red is nice and cheery, and it adds lots of storage to my tiny kitchen. I love using the raised drop leaf when we need extra prep space! It took my husband and I 3-4 hours to assemble, and we're both handy people. Not difficult by any means, just lots of steps. The only downside is that the drawers are narrow but deep, so it took me a little while to figure out what to store in them. Overall, I am still very pleased with this purchase.

Very easy to put together and looks quite nice in my kitchen. The shelf side is very roomy and the drawers are deep. Functional and beautiful! I have the black with the natural wood top and the silver knobs. Love it!

This was exactly what we needed for extra storage and work space in our new-to-us tiny kitchen. Excellent product for the price. The only complaint my husband had was with the directions, that being that the drawings were not clear enough on some of the screws and he had to remove some and replace with the correct ones. Otherwise, it went together fine. (Over 40 eyesight needs larger/darker print on the directions.) Features - a towel rack/handle on the one end. We chose to use this to hold a roll of paper towels, so as to get the roll off our countertop. Would look very nice with your hand towels as another option. Have not really found a use for the spice rack on the other end, due to the design of that part, and the spice bottles I have are too small for that purpose. I am sure something will find a home there in time. There are three drawers. I am choosing to put extra cooking utensils in one, food storage bags in another, and hot pads in the third. In the main compartment I have placed a slow cooker, mixing bowls, cutting boards, cookie sheets, and a few smaller items. The wood top is very nice and the expanding capability of it with the drop leaf is very helpful to me when preparing meals with the limited amount of permanent counter space in our kitchen. We had no problems with shipping. The product is well packaged in multiple boxes and then in a large exterior box encompassing all. So unless there is a huge gouge in the exterior box, I would not be concerned at all if there is a small tear, rip, or minor crease in the outer packaging. The package is extremely heavy (over 100 pounds), so it will be helpful if you have the delivery person bring it inside for you (if you are home when it arrives) or if you have a second person available to help you maneuver it inside your door. All-in-all, I think you will be very pleased with this cart once you have it assembled.

THIS WAS AN AWESOME FIND!! it was pretty easy to put together, took 2 people 2.5 hours and used a cordless screwdriver, instructions were easy to read and understand, and the cart is a BEAUTIFUL addition to our kitchen!! The box is heavy , so make sure 2 people lift it, this is a sturdy well constructed kitchen island, with deep drawers and good storage in the cabinet. Red is a beautiful deep color. Only down fall I see is the spice rack will only hold large spices as there is an open space (not solid,1 piece bottom) on the bottom shelf, but we put salt, pepper, and large garlic powder, and onion powder in it, not the smaller spices, we use the towel rack as a paper towel holder (wonderful). I would highly recommend this product to anyone looking for a kitchen island!

I read several reviews before ordering this product and was a little leary about taking a chance. I am so glad I did! This cart is perfect for what I need in my kitchen. It was a challenge putting it together because I had a man helping me. But, other than that, it was a snap. All of the parts were there and everything was aligned as needed. Take the chance.

This island cart fits the budget and need perfectly! It's the right size, accommodates the space, and the gray color with contrasting butcher block drop leaf compliments the decor of the kitchen very nicely. The drop leaf also gives me just the extra preparation area that is needed, and the locking casters work well!

The box was shipped to home very fast. It's very heavy. If you are a lady, you may need a help to bring into your home. The kitchen cart is very beautiful just like the picture in the product description. It doesn't feel like cheap woods and the price is affordable. It's easy to assemble. It's very durable and stable too. Now it's sitting in my kitchen making this room looks a lot better!! Love it! Would recommend it for anybody.

I purchased this island after moving to a 1 bedroom apartment in NYC. The kitchen was small and had very little counter space. I had a nook right outside the kitchen that was perfect for an island. This is perfect for people who do have some room outside the kitchen to place this island, as it is not small. The materials are all sturdy and nice. The butcher block is really nice and heavy. I didn't add the spice rack or the towel holder because I didn't need it but it's good to know I can always add them later. The assembly truly takes a long time but it's worth it.

Bought this piece for my small kitchen, needed something modern. Perfect price, perfect piece. The only downside to this was my husband wanted to kill me due to the fact it had many pieces but a little patience, its truly a great piece!

Exactly what we wanted. Looks great delivered when promised.

Love this item! Great quality and easy to put together! Still working great 2 years later in our kitchen!

This cart is perfect for storing my baking accessories kitchen appliances. I also use it for mixing up yummy dishes. Easy to put together although it needs two people.

Works well for what I needed it for. It is not the most sturdy of materials so I would not recommend it for anything heavy or excessive use. Hubby and son put it together. Stripped one of the screw holes during assembly. Hubby, who is a seasoned pro at assembling things for me over the years says it needs 2 people to assemble it.

Love this cart! And gives me much more storage and food preparing space.

We bought this for my mom to create an "efficiency kitchen" out of a very tiny space. It took two people about an hour to build but was very easy to put together. It's a beautiful shade of red. The drawers are a good size, and so is the inner cabinet space. A great purchase. We are all very happy with it. EDIT: Less than a year later and one of the doors fell off. Granted my mom is hard on stuff but I'm annoyed.

I really like the cart. The predrilled holes on one of the doors were a little off, but my son-in-law was able to do a work around. It's sturdy and very nice for the price. There are a lot of pieces, so if you're not good at putting things together or if you don't have someone to do it for you, I wouldn't recommend this item.

The island does look really nice, but it started to fall apart within 6 months of purchase. The leaf fell down and broke an entire bottle of wine on our floor, and I had to insert wood screws to the spice rack holder in order to keep it stable. Not very well made at all.

Very easy to assemble. Took myself and my husband about 2 hours. Very solid, kids use it as a breakfast table. Lots of extra storage, I wish both wheels would pivot. Makes it a little hard to move

Stylish and unique. Good material came in good condition.I would recommend to a friend
