Homestyles Dolly Madison Black Mobile Kitchen Island Cart with Wood Drop Leaf Breakfast Bar

I used to sell fine furniture so let me start by saying this is not fine furniture, but it is very good quality. The label said it was a Flexsteel product. I used to sell that brand and was very familiar with its quality.It was easy to put together, even though the snaps were difficult. I just used a metal Allen wrench to help me squeeze it together. The doors hung very evenly. The drawers went in easily. I am super happy I purchased this. It looks great in my kitchen. I will not be using it as a table very often so I am not sure how the flip up table will last, but the hinges seemed pretty big and it looked pretty substantial to hold if I needed to use it for a baking, etc.. I think it is a great value for the money. I thought about purchasing it for quite a while and I’m glad I did. I bought some extra knobs when I redid my kitchen and I use those instead of the gold knobs.

This kitchen cart exceeded all my expectations! The navy blue color is absolutely stunning and adds a bold, modern touch to my kitchen. The wood countertop is beautifully finished and surprisingly spacious—perfect for prepping meals or even sitting down for breakfast with a cup of coffee. Assembly was straightforward, and the quality is fantastic. It’s sturdy, doesn’t wobble, and the drawers glide smoothly. The wheels roll easily on my floors but lock securely when I need it to stay in place. I also love the little details—like the gold hardware and towel rack, which elevate the whole look. It fits perfectly in our space and gives us the extra storage and counter space we desperately needed. If you’re on the fence about this one—buy it. It’s the most functional and stylish upgrade we’ve made to our kitchen!

When you consider size, storage options, functionality, price, ease of assembly and sturdiness, this kitchen cart checks off all the lists and is a perfect option for small kitchens (like mine) or large kitchens alike. It took about 2-3 hours to assemble but it was not difficult at all and the instructions were pretty self explanatory and I had no difficulty putting it together myself. The wood top can be used as counter space, cutting (with a cutting board) or baking board. The cabinet doors are just the right size with enough space inside to fit a bunch of pantry items along with some medium to some larger size appliance when not in use. I the folding leaf is great and very sturdy and gives you the space if more counter space is needed or if you need another dining table using bar stools. The drawers are just the right size where you can put a lot of things it it but not so much where things get lost. The paper towel roll is great and you can hang a cloth kitchen towel and the spice rack can also be used for other things. The caster wheels roll easily and 2 can be locked as needed. (Make sure you put the locking ones toward the front of the product). This is exactly what I needed and, as a product, this is good as it gets. Note: There were some dings (see pictures) in the shipping, which I didn't reflect in my rating because how can a product and the manufacturer be responsible for the shipping? The packaging looked sufficient but I don't think the shippers handled with much care as the box had dents and even a couple of holes in it. As such there were some nicks that didn't affect the looks (all inside) or the functionality except for one thing. One of the drawers wheels was cracked (had plenty of packing on it - I blame the shippers on this) and I used gorilla bonding glue to keep it sturdy. It doesn't roll quite as smooth as the other drawers but still better then other ones in my kitchen.

First, ours showed up with NO damage. Can you believe it? The box was a little beat up, but the fact that it weighs like 150lbs, what do you expect. We expected some damage, but there wasn't any at all... It goes together pretty easy. I have several small powered drills/drivers, the small, DYI type 6V drill with screw driver tips, we keep in the kitchen cabinet for small projects worked great, otherwise, you have to hand screw the screws in, which could make it longer to get together. But it really isn't hard. PAY ATTENTION to the drawer instructions, because its kind of easy to get the sides mixed up when assembling the drawer boxes. HINT: the roller wheels of the drawer runners, go to the back of the drawer box. It used "FLIP" locks, and they are hard to "FLIP" all the way when you are ready to "LOCK" the piece at that place, but I just used a small pair of pliers, that helped push the "LOCK" all the way closed. As a guy who has done quite a bit of cabinet work in the past, I was expecting the drawers, and doors to need to be adjusted and fiddled with to get them lined up. SURPRISINGLY, they didn't need ANY adjustment! That's a first! Now, this unit is what we call an "open" box type of cabinet, meaning, the front is mostly frame, the back and sides are solid when assembled, so, the cabinet can be " racked" ( meaning moved out of square) if you put pressure on the sides, which will make the doors and drawer fronts, go out of align UNTIL, you lock the thing totally, and solid with the "FLIP LOCKS" and screw the top to the frame. Then its a solid unit. It's not flimsy mind you, but until its all locked, and the top is screwed on, it can "rack", making the doors and drawer fronts go out of alignment. What I did was, I held the cabinet, so the doors lined up at the top, ( It really was VERY little out of alignment, but I'm a bit OCD ) THEN screwed in the screws attaching the top to the frame of the unit. I suggest using a power drill with a screw bit for the top. Otherwise, you probably wont be able to hold it AND screw the screws in. ONE LAST THING, the wheels are hard plastic, with a rounded profile, so when we rolled it in our kitchen, on LAMINATE flooring, they can easily scratch your laminate if your not careful. Once the unit is filled with stuff, it gets pretty heavy, so we put cushions under each wheel, so the weight of the unit wont dent the laminate flooring when it sits for long periods of time in one place. Moving it fully loaded, on laminate is a bit scary, because we're worried that the rounded wheel faces could leave dent-tracks in the laminate flooring. LISTEN UP HOME STYLES....Source RUBBER or Urethane wheels!! Other then that, its a great cart, looks really nice, GREAT added space in the deep drawers, two shelves make the cabinet part REALLY nice, the Leaf is big, and works very well. Our top was NOT warped as others have stated. We did NOT use the towel holder, or the side rack. I plugged the holes and it looks fine. The leaf actually makes this a pretty nice sized table top when open. So far, we're very happy with it.

Un ami me la assemblé et il a mentionné que les directives étaient bien claires et que le tout fut assez facile à assembler. Trois à quatre heures fut nécessaire pour le complèter. Parce qu'il est mobile, je peux le rapprocher où j'en ai besoin. Il est solide et peux contenir un grand nombre d'articles. Je l'aime beaucoup!

Love it

Great cart for dollar amount. I was a bit sacred when the package came damaged but the packaging on the cart kept it safe. WE put it together easily and it has lots of space. Moves easily across the hardwood floor.

Very well build . Easy to put together. Nice looking island

I must say, usually these knock down type pieces are furniture are a pain to put together but this kitchen island was the easiest ever! The unit was carefully packed, not one scratch on it. every piece was labeled correctly. Every hole lined up properly and after assembly it is so very sturdy! I'm not sure what units some of these reviews are talking about though. It was childs play! Only reason why I gave it a 4.5 rating is that it was all in one box and this old lady had a hell of a time getting it from point a to point b. Thank you HomeSense and thank you Amazon! Well worth the money! Perfect for our Cabin!
