Could this cart be used as an island for the kitchen? I'm mostly wondering in terms of the height.

It's an inch higher than my kitchen table, not quite as high as the counters-but I'm only 5'1", so it works as an island for me.

Yes, I think it could, but it is not counter height. I put a thick cutting board on top, and that brings it up a bit, but it is still about 3 inches shorter than my kitchen counter top.

The cart is about 6 inches lower than my counter tops. I think it would be awkward to use it as an island for an average height person. I use it for storage mostly, the top is nice to keep a stand mixer on and extra counter space.

I classify this cart as the island in my kitchen. I love it so much, I purchased one for my daughter and her partner for their new apartment.

Yes. I am about 5'8 and I have no problem preparing food on this cart. I have no complaints. This is a very well made cart and I am very satisfied with this purchase.

It depends on what you want to do on it. I used it for my huge, heavy microwave, in order to free up counter space, but think it would be great for chopping veggies and such It's a bit higher than most microwave carts I saw so would work perfectly for me. BUT... take into consideration I'm 5' tall and what's a great height for me might be a bit low for someone who's regular height or tall. Having the knife holder and the cutting board as part of it would help make it an efficient island for food prep. If you want the cart to do double duty for a place to eat, it wouldn't work well. The lower shelves would be in your way. It depends on what you want to do on it.

17 inches. No way this will work with a kitchen island. By the way - I would not take this high chair if they gave it to me for free! Very poorly designed.

I don't think you'll be able to use stools with this island...there really isn't any overhang for it. Also, we found that after a few months, the island sagged on the bottom shelf, between the two doors. It looks nice, but isn't sturdy.

Yes, it can be placed on a wooden cart. The bottom does get very hot, but the feet keep it up off the surface it sits on. These are designed to sit on a countertop without damaging the surface from heat.

The cart is reasonably light, but VERY sturdy. Yes, it can be easily assembled. I did need to put more pressure on a couple of parts, but I did NOT need to have my husband help. I have two of these carts if that gives you an idea how much I like them. I keep craft items on one. And the other one is loaded with my slow cookers. I can easily roll the cart loaded with the cookers to the closet for storage, which is certainly much easier that carrying each one separately.

This table is quite tall. About as high as your average kitchen counter. So I do not think this will work for that application.

It could be used as a one or two person dining table. It's quite strong. My mom in law uses it all the time for food prep. The wheels are maybe 3", so it would be three inches shorter than specs without wheels. Very nice unit.

I would have to say no. The basket is pretty short. I would go for a taller one for larger item storage.

It really all depends on how sturdy the stainless steel cart is. The fridge itself is short, so I thought about putting it on top of something so I'm not having to kneel down to get stuff in and out of the fridge, so I don't see why not. Since I sent mine back I can't measure it, but the measurements in the description are the perfect representation (19 x 21 x 33 inches ; 70 pounds) It is heavy, hence the reason to make sure your cart is sturdy enough to handle it. :)

It really depends on the height of your kitchen island. Mine is unusually high, however the tray sits approx34". It's total height is 43". This THE BEST high chair that I have ever seen!! Easy to fold and unfold. Getting the child in and out is a breeze. Easy to clean and can travel with you anywhere!

I am not the seller, but I bought 4 of these chairs for the island in my kitchen, which is counter height. They are perfect for a counter height island. :)

This is a great storage cart and i have had no balance issues. If assembled properly, you will find this item to be quite sturdy. To be honest, i know it could easily handle storage and movement of your mixer from point A to B. If you're wanting to run the appliance on the cart, however, I would probably not recommend it. Even with the wheels locked, it wouldn't prevent wobbling.

Yup! I use them at our counter-height kitchen island and they're perfect for that.

No, you will need to assemble the cart and place the cooktop on it you should have a 2nd person to help that part , the cooktop is assembled but might need to be adjusted for hood to work smoothly. you will also mount the shelves

Although the cart is strong and sturdy enough to hold most tools like you mentioned, I would be hesitant to use cart as a work stand. My experience as a life long wood worker tells me this cart would be too narrow to make a stable work surface. It would be very good to store and move equipment around shop, but you want a stand with legs that flare out wider than the work surface for stability and wheels that retract off the floor. Hope this helps.

I don't think it would be tall enough. However, with some modification I am sure it can be done. The top burner encased in that metal frame is all one piece. It is then attached to the larger rectangular base with 4 bolts. I figured it might be as simple as getting some 2x6's and building a box to raise that top burner frame up. Or if you are handy at welding I am sure a better rig can be fitted to this cart. If you are buying on prime with free shipping it's a good deal to start a brew sculpture. Especially because of that jet burner, that thing rocks.
