I have 100 2 oz. craft bottles of paint on the top shelf.  I painted the tops so I can easily see the color.  The other shelves hold brushes, Gesso, a Gallon Jug of water, paper towel and so on.  It rolls easily throughout the house (floor and carpet)  I push it either one handed or with my foot (I am currently in a wheelchair I have no trouble moving the cart).  I would love to own a cart for every type of Art medium I have so I can bring my supplies to wherever I am working.  The cart is so well-made, very sturdy.  If you have one that broke call the manufacturer and get it fixed...things break.  There is a good finish on it, mine is almost a year old and still looks new.  Paint wipes off easily.  I have used magnets to hang light things (color charts) on the outsides of the baskets(shelves,bins,drawers).  The bottoms are ventilated allowing good air flow if you use this for plants.  It would be great to roll seedlings outside then bring back in during the chilly evenings.  The edges of the cart are smooth and safe, the cart is not top heavy, it will not easily tip over so it would be good around older kids.  The wheels do not lock though.  I did not buy this from Amazon.  Yes the cart IS $29.99 at IKEA however the TOTAL cost was $43.44 with shipping and tax.  That closes the price gap a bit. Delivery took 4 days.  I read some of the questions so  I tried fitting my KEURIG in the top shelf.  It fits.  I have a model that has the removable water bin on the side.  It is an older model.
