I hate Walmart. Avoid it at all costs. But wanted to check out Pioneer Woman's cookware and needed a cheap desk chair for scrap room. While looking at the desk chairs I spotted a "Raskog" cart knock off from their Mainstays collection. It came in black and is only $32! I caved and bought it. Took 5 min to assemble and it VERY sturdy and the wheel are very smooth. I don't know if you can with the Raskog, but you could pick what height and spacing of the shelves are on the Walmart version. I'm going to spray paint it to go with my room. Tempted to go back for another!

I hate Walmart, too. But for $32? I'll check it out. Which piece is it?

The middle shelf on the Raskog is adjustable. Is the Walmart cart fully adjustable? Do you have a photo? I cannot find it on the Walmart website.

Don't forget that IKEA dropped the price of the Raskog to $30 a while back. I wish they'd put it out in a pure white or red.
The Walmart one looks bigger, though. Does it hold 12x12 paper? The Raskog doesn't!

Thanks for adding the photos. I still cannot find it online, despite the "find more at Walmart.com" on the box! Maybe it's so new it hasn't made the website yet. Looks like a good alternative.

Thanks for the photo -- I like that. I might stop at Walmart this week and see it in person. What color would you paint it?

I can't find it online either. If you go to Walmart its on the isle with the folding chairs. Right by the office furniture.

This one is going in my bedroom by my vanity so it's being spray painted metallic gold foil like my vanity chair. I'm going back for another for the scrap room, that one will be either white or turquoise.

They also started carrying the same shelf units like the Expedits. They have white..I think black..I think wood maybe. They hold the WRMK 12 x12 3 ring albums. THey are better homes & gardens. There are a couple threads here on thread had several people post theirs in their house for us to see I am so glad cause even though I have one 80 mins away... It cost money for gas for my sons pick up . I can get it here at wallys for free shipping the 1 x 4 are 37 bucks

How many cans of spray paint did you use PolarGreen12. That came out real nice! One was enough. I did an all over really good covering. Let it dry for an hour then came back and it really didn't need any touch ups but I went ahead and went over it quick with what was left.

I absolutely love it in gold!! I wish I could justify a use for one of those. My craft room is on the second floor so lugging it downstairs would be silly.
