aye they are really handy.just a wee word of warning though,i had mine sitting in the corner away from the sunlight coming through the window or so i thought but it actually caught the sun very briefly in the evening.in next to no time it had faded all the dyed dubbing's that had been hit by the sun .maybe the effect of the sun was magnified through semi transparent plastic ,not really sure ,but it was definitely the sun as the dubbing in the packets were OK on the side not facing the sun ,

Aye it's a good size,and the castors are optional,so you can sit it on a desk or table.
