We purchased this piece to add counter space to our small, ill-designed rental kitchen. We needed more storage, more counter room, and something portable. I have put together lots of furniture over the years; this piece is definitely high-quality, and can be challenging to assemble. The overall construction is very well done, very precise. If you've ever put together a Lego set, than this will be no problem. You can see how it's intended to be built once you become familiar with the parts. When it arrives, it will not have the pieces labeled like other companies, so it is very important to do this first! You will need help during assembly during two key stages. I also did use a drill, but very carefully so as not to overturn any screws; but it did make it faster. The wheels are very high quality, solid, work well, have brakes. The only reason it is not a 5-star; the side panels are not solid wood, but the cardboard pieces that is used as backing; however, it does make it a tad lighter to move around, and more affordable. Also, the drawer is wood-on-wood, it would be nicer to have drawer hinges. Overall, it's a beautiful piece and we're extremely pleased with it for the price. It will go with us when we buy a home.
