WinsomeWood Mario Kitchen, Natural

I bought a house with a tiny kitchen 10 yrs ago. I purchased this to increase the counter top in my kitchen. I use the storage area for enamel baking dishes and appliances such as my insta-pot. The towel holder is a very nice touch. I never use the knife block and I found using it got in the way. I can see the knife block being handy for people using it outside or for events. Also, food particles do get in between the block and counter top. In fact, I'm going to look at removing it after this reviewPros:Works as advertiseRolls nicely- as nice as any office chairSemi sturdyEasy to assembleStill use it daily 10years latersNothing has brokenCons:Cutting board- it's a decent cutting board. But... It has a finish on it. I don't know the chemical which was used, but I never use it. Cutting boards should have an oil base protective layer instead of a hard finish. I hope someone can post a review if the finish is actually food safe or not.Sturdiness - I don't have a problem with it, but don't expect it to be a rock. It does shake a bit but overall it's fine considering the build/material/weight.Would I buy it again? 100% I would if I didn't have a lot to spend and needed counter top space & storage. It looks nice, it holds up. If I wanted a rolling kitchen island and had a bit more room and had $400-$600 to spend... I would spend the extra.Obviously one can spend more and get something nicer. But this does look nice, and does the job. You sacrifice sturdiness for a lower cost kitchen cart.

I've noticed a number of people have asked about this cart's compatibility with the SPT Countertop Dishwasher, specifically about whether the dishwasher would fit in one of the lower shelves. I have found that it does!!... with some work. I bought this cart for my SPT countertop dishwasher, knowing that, while this cart's dimensions are larger than most others on the market, it wouldn't fit the dishwasher on the lower shelf without some customization. The SPT dishwasher measures about 21.5 inches wide and 17.5 inches high. If you assemble this cart using the pre-drilled holes provided, the space between shelves is quite a bit shorter than the dishwasher's height, and the width between the legs is 21 inches (just half an inch too narrow to fit the dishwasher!). So I decided to buy it, hoping that with my power drill I could finagle a way fit the dishwasher. I'm glad I did!The following is a description of how I put together the utility cart so it would fit the dishwasher. You could likely find your own way to configure the cart so that it would fit the dishwasher or another large appliance, just know you will most likely need a power drill (with assorted drill bits), and you will need to measure very carefully. I hope this is helpful (and not too confusing).Here's what I did: First I used a hacksaw to saw off the handle/towel bar that is attached to the tabletop of the cart (which I've seen others do), since I didn't have much use for it and it took up space. This step is optional and doesn’t affect how the dishwasher or other large appliance would fit.Second, instead of lining up the four legs with the predrilled holes in the tabletop, I aligned the pair of legs on the short side opposite of where the knife holder would be with the edge of the crossbar that is attached to the underside of the tabletop (so the edge of the leg is flush with the cross bar's edge). Using a drill bit that closely matched the diameter of the predrilled holes, I drilled two new holes into the cross bar on the tabletop and used the predrilled holes in the leg to attach this first pair of legs. I aligned the other pair of legs (on the side where the knife holder is installed) with the predrilled holes and attached them without drilling any new holes. This new configuration gave me about an additional 3/4 of a inch in width-- just enough to allow for the dishwasher to fit between the legs. I had to be careful to not place the legs too wide under the tabletop so that I was still able to attach the shelves, which are slightly narrower than the tabletop and there is less room to work with.Next, I installed the bottom shelf. I attached the short side of the shelf opposite of the knife holder using the predrilled holes in the legs and the shelf. To attach the other end of the shelf (toward the end with the knife holder), I drilled one hole in the middle of the predrilled holes of shelf (don’t drill into the leg). I then aligned the inside predrilled hole in the leg with the middle hole in the shelf, attaching that side with one screw. One screw seems to be plenty enough support to hold my dishwasher.Next, the second shelf. As mentioned before, there isn’t enough height between the shelves to allow for the dishwasher, so I had to drill new holes in the legs and the shelves to install the upper shelf a bit above the predrilled holes. It’s possible you can leave out this step and forego installing this second shelf altogether, but I opted to keep it as it does add some stability to the cart and gives me a place to keep the dishwasher hoses and cord out of sight. I drilled one hole in the center of the two legs opposite the knife holder side about 19 inches above the bottom shelf. I was able to countersink the holes to match the other predrilled holes in the legs by drilling about halfway with a larger bit first, followed by the smaller bit that matched the screw size in the center of the first hole. This also allowed me to use the wooden plugs to cover these new holes when I was finished. I then drilled a screw sized hole between the two predrilled holes in the shelves (on the side opposite the knife holder) and attached the screws through the new holes. On the side with the knife holder, I drilled one new hole (countersink) in each leg (19 inches about the bottom shelf) so that it lined up with the outer (left) predrilled hole in the shelf. These holes will not appear center in the leg, but that’s okay, it just needs to line up with the holes in the shelves (see first picture) I used only one screw to attach each of the four legs to the upper shelf, which is plenty for me since this upper shelf will not be holding much weight.Last, but not least, sliding the dishwasher into place! I installed the castors, then, with some effort and the help of my boyfriend, slid the dishwasher into place. Let’s just say, it was a tight/close fit, but I manage to slide it in without damaging the appliance and without much (if any) room to spare to the sides of the dishwasher. The dishwasher is a bit deeper than the depth of the shelves, but it works perfectly so that the door of the dishwasher just hangs over enough to open it easily. I'd say it fits perfectly.Considering I needed the extra counter space this cart provides and that I refuse to put the dishwasher on top of the cart, the extra work is worth it. The best part is, even after customizing the cart (and with imperfect drilling), it is still very sturdy. It holds the dishwasher securely, and I’m confident it will do so for the long haul. Plus it looks great and everything still visually lines up nicely.TL;DR: This cart does fit the SPT countertop dishwasher on its shelves, but with some work, careful measuring, and a power drill with assorted drill bits. It’s worth the extra work as this cart remains sturdy after customizing it to fit the dishwasher or any other large appliance. Nice looking, sturdy utility cart, perfect for the SPT countertop dishwasher if you measure carefully and are willing and able to do a little extra work to customize its size.

Instructions were minimal but effective. Take your time and think about what you're doing. I have a powered screwdriver which saved a lot of work. The parts fit remarkably well. I had exactly the right number of screws and wooden plugs. The wheels are small, cheap, and the locking lever can lock after some vibration. But the wheels are good enough for a kitchen cart. Two slats on the shelves were slightly loose. I could see that they were stapled in place. I just left them as-is because the weight of things on the shelves will prevent the slats from going anywhere. I can always glue/screw them tight later if necessary.The wood has a light color but is harder than pine. It has a nice looking, smooth finish. I'm not sure if it should be waxed. The top is thick, solid and gives the unit a quality feel. The handle is permanent- it might have been nice if it could slide aside so you could put a paper towel roll there. I'm finding that the size of the unit is ideal for my smallish kitchen & dining area. Overall, it is a very attractive cart and fits with other light colored natural woods in my home. We live in a world of plastics and particle board- it's nice to have real wood, even if you don't know what kind of wood it is.I have filled the shelves with large appliances: an Instant Pot, a NuWave convection oven and a big Oster roaster that I'll use for turkey again soon. The lower shelf is about 13" high and the upper shelf is about 11.5" high.

It was easy to install. All made of natural, sturdy wood. Stands beautifully wherever you place it. The cutting board is large and handy, and I use it as a cheese board.Excellent product, I am glad I bought it.

100% madera, igual que en la imagen, la calidad es excelente, resistente, buen acabado, fácil de armar. Todo lo que promete

Perfect for my needs. Easy to assemble by myself, cart is very sturdy and the cutting board is a nice bonus.

Llegó antes de lo programado. Es fácil de armar, buen material, cumple con las expectativas.

This item was returned to Amazon because the package had a teeny tiny amount of damage but the contents were in spectacular shape which makes buying it at half price well worth it. The cart is easy to assemble and very sturdy. It holds a countertop dishwasher perfectly.
