Tools and Hardware Reviews of Winsome Wood Single Drawer Storage Cart, NaturalCustomer Review: Built solid, but questionable craftsmanship Summary: 3 Stars
First of all, the product itself is solid wood. No complaints at all there. The instructions are easy to follow, and it's actually surprisingly easy to put together. The instructions recommend two people put it together, but I had absolutely no problems putting it together on my own. Since it's real wood and not cheap particleboard, it feels sturdy and I'm not worried about it falling apart on it's own.
However, while the wood itself is good, the quality control isn't. Some of the pieces come with pre-fitted pieces that are screwed in on the factory's end. Some of them were positioned incorrectly, to where I had to unscrew them, drill new holes about 1/8" further, and re-attach the pieces.
For example, the drawer is built from a total of 4 pieces - 4 sides and a bottom panel. The front has two wooden blocks screwed to it that the rest of the drawer frame gets attached to. One of those two pieces only had one of the two screws put in, and didn't even have a screw hole for the second one. It also was attached too low so the bottom panel wouldn't slide in. I had to detach it, drill new holes in, and re-attach it. Plus find a screw that fit the assembly, since it was missing it completely.
Another issue, there are several vertical planks that get placed between the sides. One of them has an assembly with magnetic clips that the doors rest against when they're closed. That piece was put in on the wrong side. So it would either be upside down (so the drawer wouldn't fit) or inside out, to where the doors can't close. I had to unscrew it, drill holes, and re-attach it in the right place.
Also in the process of attaching the back panel in, since the grooves didn't align perfectly, the pressure caused some minor cracks to appear to the thin wooden panel. Not noticable unless you look close-up, but it shouldn't happen at all.
For the price, I'm pleased with the purchase. Having fixed the fabrication errors, the cart now looks great and stands solid. The pieces themselves are crafted great - based on that and the design I'd give the cart a 4 or 5. But due to the shoddy job the fabrication crew did putting together the pre-assembled pieces, I'll have to give it a 3. I would've rather put all the pieces together myself than have to go through and correct their mistakes.
Description of Winsome Wood Single Drawer Storage Cart, NaturalThe solid Beachwood worktop provides you with a handily food preparation surface on this rolling storage cart. A top drawer is underpinned by a large two-door cabinet. Handy towel bar on one side helps too. Perfect for small kitchens where every space has to serve double duty, Winsome Wood's single-drawer storage cart packs a lot of multi-task potential into its compact dimensions. The roomy top counter offers a large work area with a towel rail on the side for easy access. Just underneath sits a wide drawer for utensils and tools, while two lower doors open to reveal storage space with a shelf. Perched on lockable casters, the solid beechwood cart goes wherever it's needed, then slides away when not in use. The simple, clean style suits any décor and features large handles that are easy to grasp and pull--no matter how busy, cramped, or distracted the chef is! The cart measures 25-1/2 inches wide by 19-1/4 inches deep by 34 inches high. --Kara Karll
