Sobremesa L-Shaped Outdoor Kitchen Island vs Mintazer Extendable Outdoor Kitchen Island Cart

Buy the Sobremesa if you want a permanent, built-in outdoor kitchen with a sink, trash drawer and a dedicated grill stand. Buy the Mintazer if you want a movable prep cart that rolls out for grilling and tucks away after. The Sobremesa is far heavier and larger, with an aluminum frame and 304 stainless sink; the Mintazer is a fir wood cart with a stainless top that extends from 19.3 to 28 inches deep. Owners of modular islands like the Sobremesa value the storage and cleanup setup; cart buyers like the Mintazer's mobility and small footprint.

• Choose the Sobremesa if you are setting up a fixed patio cooking zone and need a sink, trash pull-out and grill stand in one L-shaped run.
• Choose the Mintazer if you rent, move your grill around, or have limited patio space and want a cart you can wheel out and lock in place.
