It will be easy right? Piece of cake?
I'm not a fan of Ikea directions. |

I found it really easy to do and I usually suck at this sort of thing. I generally pawn off putting things together but I was too excited to wait for someone to come home. Didn't twit long at all.

My husband (not handy) put it together for me in about 1/2 hour. With the "help" of our toddler  So I'd say pretty easy! |

I'm nervous about putting one together myself. I can't always get things to fit the right way. I'm glad that someone had an easy time of it. That gives me some confidence. Maybe I will pick one up.

yep pretty easy. My hubby is a contractor though and didn't look at the directions (he HATES those Ikea directions! LOL)

Oh good, I was kind of scared but I think I will tackle it alone now!

Super easy to put together! It does help to have a second pair of hands to help hold. I just bought the one in turquoise and love it!

My daughter (almost 20) put together my first one. I then put the remaining two together by myself as she was not home. They are easy but when aligning the trays, I lay it down on the floor to do that part. Works VERY easy that way.

Took me about 15 minutes. It is very picture easy to understand. BUT like Patter said, it does need to lay down on it's side to get the trays and holes to line up correctly in the middle.

Btw, you will love it! It is a fantastic little storage piece! And it rolls *beautifully*. I love mine.  What colour did you get? |

I love the aqua but decided to stick with my color/scheme.

That basket is lovely! My mom has the grey cart (my sister and I gave it to her after she gave us ours!) and it is a great shade of grey.

I paid my son who is ten to do it for me. Took him about 30 minutes.

I need one of these don't I? I have looked at the turquoise one for months but can't find the space in my room for it, but I love it soooo much!

I messed mine up and stripped a screw. That's the thing about IKEA stuff... You kind of only get one chance. Now I have to go out and buy a new screw (if I can find one) or mine will be forever wonky...

I put mine together pretty quickly. I just love my Raskog cart - everyone needs one |

Did it, took me about 30 minutes. For an Ikea piece, it was pretty easy!
Yes you all need one.

Easy to put together. I have 2 now, one in my scrap room and one in my pantry.
They now have one in an ivory beige color, I saw it at Ikea last time I was there in May.

I got one for DS'S (4) art stuff. I love that thing and I'm buying myself one on Thursday when I make an IDEA pilgrimage. I really like the height and how easy it rolls.

You know I saw the aqua one in the store yesterday but said to myself "no, stick to your color scheme" and now after clicking on your link, well I am just going to have to go back and get the aqua one.
Thanks, I think  . |

DH said that it is real easy to put together. It took him about 15 minutes. It probably helped that it is the second one that he has put together. I have an aqua one and finally found a gray one this past weekend. I plan to use the gray one in my pantry to hole potatoes/onions etc. The aqua one is in my scrapbook room.

It was very easy and I had a 90 pound golden retriever "helping" me at the time. Less than a half hour and it went together so easy that I got a second one.  |

I just put two of them together this week. I did both of them in less than a half hour. They are aqua and I can't wait to use them.

I don't have one but my friend does...it didn't take her long at all but part of hers wasn't even painted. She ordered it and didn't want to have to send it back plus she said she may paint it a different color all together.
So I would check and make sure all your parts are painted before putting it together.

Thanks, I think . There are all kinds of places on the 'net that talk about painting them to make them match your color scheme. So that is an option if you don't want the aqua. |
