Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)We replaced an older, smaller Catskill cart with this one and it's a nice improvement for our kitchen, with more work surface, a big drawer and lots of easy access storage space underneath. The square top fits our kitchen configuration perfectly.
The first shipment arrived with some damaged pieces, but Amazon replaced it.
Assembly is straightforward and well-documented. Quality of the materials is good, and although Catskill doesn't use any cushioning material inside the two boxes this thing is shipped in, the only imperfections I found were where the bag of casters had dented slightly the top surface, and those steamed out pretty easily. Or you can consider it factory-distressed, at no extra charge.
I recommend lightly sanding all the pieces before assembly with fine sandpaper, as all the surfaces -- especially the end grains -- will be rough to one extent or another. This doesn't take long and will yield big dividends when oiling or waxing later. I also think a smooth surface doesn't collect as much dust.
We gave the old cart as a wedding present to a young couple getting married in a few weeks, which makes it a satisfying transaction all round.
