This was the easiest product I've ever put together!!! I put it together by myself in an about a hour and I'm not a super handy girl usually. So far everything seems sturdy and it looks great.

So pretty and functional!
Color: Gold, Size: 33.9"W, Color: Gold, Size: 33.9"W
This cart arrived promptly and was easy to put together for me! I love the 2 mirror shelves, which I had specifically searched for. Usually the shelves on these bar carts are just glass and not mirrored, which means you see right through to the next level, which is wine bottles and the floor. I thought the mirrored shelves reflecting back just what’s placed on it looks so much more elegant. I also like the gold color, but just so you know, it is not the jewelry gold color, but more of a matte metallic taupey-gold (hard to describe). The color is pretty, but not the shiny, yellowish gold color that it appears to be on this seller’s pictures. I added another gold tabletop wine holder (also from Amazon) on the lower shelf and you can see what I mean by the color. Overall, I am pleased with the price, elegant look, easy assembly, the maneuverability, and how much it holds.
