Description
An elegant way to house your coffee station at home or in the office. Great for entertaining, rolling into a meeting or conference. 3 shelves makes it a rolling entertainment center. With attention to detail this unit is made from a tough and safe plastic that will stand the test of time
This Mind Reader 'Valet' 3 Tier rolling coffee cart is a great coffee station for single serve coffee machines. This cart is a really nice looking portable station that would be great to use in any workplace or at home. My kitchen it TINY, more of a walk through than a room. I roll the cart out to the dining room when I have guests over so it is easier for everyone to make the drink of their choice. This holds a Keurig perfectly and has a separate condiment organizer piece that can hold cups, lids, stirrers, tea bags, sweetener packets, etc.... If you don't need or want it, you can easily remove it and have room for another coffee machine or your regular mugs and a sugar bowl.
The rolling coffee cart is made with three heavy black shelves, metal arms and rolling wheels. The top shelf has a drawer, you will just need to screw in the drawer handle. The drawer has grooved components that hold Keuring type cups. It is very easy to put together. You will need a screwdriver to attach the drawer handle and you may need a rubber/rawhide mallet to secure tamp down the pipes and rollers. It is lightweight but I haven't found it to be flimsy at all. I have items on the bottom so it doesn't move around when making a drink in the coffee machine. Another reviewer had lamented the lack of a pushing handle on this since it is a "cart". Since this is plastic, it would be very easy to drill two holes, add a large handle and screw it on if you wanted something to push the cart around.
When I move to a larger kitchen, I will probably repurpose this to use in my art studio. It would be great to hold canvases, paper, paint etc... on the shelves, pencils/pens, brushes in the drawer and other tools on top. Or maybe fabric on the shelves and sewing stuff on the top?? It has a lot of uses! I love this cart, it nice looking, useful and feels well made.
I read some other reviews before putting this together, so armed with a hefty rubber mallet and a tiny eyeglass screwdriver, I went to work.
I used that mallet on everything. I made sure the wheels were tightly fitted and then starting with the bottom shelf I made sure every post fit tight and then worked up as the instructions say to do. It did not take long to put it together BUT I spent twice that long trying to get those two teeny little screws to fit and even now they are lopsided and I don't care. No one will see them and they fit the drawer pull.
The cart rolls great (remember to take the lock off two wheels before you start using it or you will wonder why it doesn't roll easy). It is smooth on tile and Pergo flooring and on a flat carpet. Forget about throw rugs or thick carpet..
It is sturdy, but would I use it for a Platinum Keurig - probably not. For a one person single server - maybe. I am using it in the bathroom for toiletries/cosmetics/skin and hair care. I was able to completely clean off my bathroom counter which has two sinks. I am keeping brushes and other things in the included 'condiment' holder. On the bottom shelf I have extra paper towels, toilet paper and facial tissue. Extra washcloths are on the second shelf. I do not have any rugs on the floor so it rolls easily. Too easily as the cats often have it blocking the door as I go in:)
So, I am happy with it, but don't buy it thinking it is heavyweight like a kitchen cart that folds up but is made with wood and steel, etc. It is not.
Easy to put together cart, very lightweight. Pretty simple instructions that are actually on the side of the box to walk you through it, took less than 10 minutes to assemble. The only difficulty we had was getting the 2 little screws into the back of the drawer handle. Finally got it finished with our mini Phillips screwdriver. I like this cart because it doesn't take up a lot of room and it has three shelves, rolling wheels, a drawer and removable storage compartment space on the top of it.
I didn't need a coffee cart because I keep my coffee maker on the kitchen counter top. That being said I still wanted to use this in the home so I decided to use it organize some of my husband's more lightweight tools that were taking up a bunch of random space in our laundry room, so great to finally have things organized in there!
....not the intended purpose but this cart still worked as a great alternative multi-purpose item in the home and ended up getting good use out of it. Enclosed a few pictures so that you can see that this product can be used successfully in multiple ways not just as a coffee cart.
This coffee cart valet is actually very useful for other things. I use it as a beauty valet. I keep my hot rollers on the bottom and bins of make up and hair accessories on one shelf. The drawer hold some of my special make up tools. The coffee cup and sugar holder is great for some of my frequently used brushes and make up accessories. It is nice because I can roll it out of the closet or into a different area to put on my makeup or to do my hair.
Fantastic once you get it together. It was like the pieces didn't fit and I had to man- handle them in.
