Costco now has a Raskog knock-off for just under $28. It looks just like the IKEA ones except it has 4 baskets not 3. They only had one color - a kind of sand color that reminds me of military colors.  It is in the office supply section. |

Just did a thorough search on Costco online but didn't see it. Guess I'll have to make a trip to the store! |

Dang, I just wasted copious amounts of time and money at Costco and that was the ONE area I didn't go into.

This isn't a very good picture, but you can see the box and the price. I have a Raskog and I was trying to figure out where I would use this....

Thanks for the tip. I picked one up today. It was in the storage section at my Costco. It's a putty color, which is perfect for my room. I really need it for my growing collection of mixed media paint, inks, stamps and dies.

I think I'm going to have to have one of those! Even though the putty color *might* work in my studio, it might be more fun to spray paint it hot pink--and it just so happens that I have a couple cans of that color paint hanging around...  I've been looking for something to put my ink pads in besides the icky plastic Iris cart that they're sitting in now that's taking up too much valuable counter space. Maybe this would be just the right thing. |

Oh, that would be a nice piece for storing my paints and brushes. I may have to scoot to Costco today.

I wonder if it's taller. Since the photo is taken from a higher perspective instead of straight on, I made that assumption. But from the comments on the IG mentioned above, it doesn't look like it is and that the baskets are really close together. If it were taller, they'd still be spaced decently apart, but if it's not, then the baskets wouldn't allow for ease of access to the things inside. I'm almost tempted to grab it for a bathroom instead of for crafting items because you wouldn't need the distance between the baskets for things like towels and toilet paper.

I was thinking the same thing scrapaddict702, I wonder what it's measurements are. I would love 4 shelves instead of Ikea's 3. |

Now that I have it home, I'd say the color is pewter, not putty (which is how it looked when I opened the box in the back of my car at Costco). I like having 4 trays, and the position is adjustable. They're very roomy, lots bigger than on a similar cart I got at Tuesday Morning.
I had I had to have them do a search at the store. There was only one on the shelf, and I missed it when I browsed the store. They had more in the back. Here's a picture showing overall dimensions:
(Photos removed)
I'll I'll add another picture after I get it put together this weekend.

Hmmm. It appears that Target has a similar three tiered one under their Room Essentials line on sale this week for $24.99. It's a little smaller than the Costco one and only has three baskets instead of four, but with more space in between them. Target three tier cart link It comes in white or a silvery gray color, the white would work best with my room colors. Dimensions: 31.61 inches H x 13.94 inches W x 17.91 inches D Now I need to go measure the height under my desk where I'm thinking it could go to see which one might be the better answer for what I want to put in it. |

Wow, the Target one looks just like the IKEA one, and I think the dimensions are almost the same. I wanted another gray one, but my IKEA stopped selling gray. Hmmm...  |

Maybe leave one basket off if you need more room. You could always use the extra basket somewhere else. Save |
