Review on 🏡 VASAGLE ALINRU Kitchen Baker’s Rack with Steel Frame, Wire Basket, 6 Hooks - Coffee Bar, Microwave Oven Stand - 35.4", Rustic Brown by Chris Reddick

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Looks fantastic but has some imperfections

Bought two vintage SONGMICS serving trolleys, 3 tier kitchen trolleys. The first block came together fairly quickly and looks amazing when finished. The second block was a different story. After the module was assembled, the module was so crooked that I had to disassemble and reassemble it by rearranging the shelves and legs. After adjusting the legs so that one of the four legs is perfectly vertical, the other three legs are not. Also, the top shelf is not square with a metal frame to which it is bolted. In any case, I finally got the device up to an acceptable level. The wheels are very weak, but they work effectively in most situations. Because in my situation I am placing two units end to end where the vertices of the units need to be aligned. In this case I chose to use the included feet instead of casters. I'm still planning to buy a few additional units. Over the years I have noticed that similar blocks of furniture "from many manufacturers" have the same problems. My advice is not to fully tighten either screw until all screws are in place. I also used Tri and Miter Square to help with alignment. Edit: 11/7/18 For the second block, I decided to undo all the screws again and have a friend turn the frame (hold the top shelf and turn) until it all fits together. He held the block in that position while I tightened all the screws. It's looking pretty good now. When it comes to casters, the best casters are readily available at Revain or any hardware store. I have now increased my 4 star rating to 5 stars.
