MEEDEN Art Supplies Storage Cart: 5-Tier Utility Rolling Cart

LOVE this cart and have gotten so many rave reviews on it. It conveniently holds all of my art supplies and keeps them handy in one place, that I can move around easily. The cart is beautifully made, lots of storage & moves well. LOVE it!

The cart I purchased was partially assembled and only required basic finishing . (80+ female). I love this cart! I have wanted one for some time and purchased smaller, less complete substitutes. I'm glad I finally bit the bullet and purchased the one I really wanted. The drawers hold lots of supplies and the bottom shelf is great for larger items. The cart is well made and sturdy . You get what you pay for, and this quality item is worth the price.

so 4.5 stars is about right. Package was well packed, I noticed some scratches on one piece but not a visible area. The cart is high quality, well engineered and lots of room for different supplies to reach easily. The drawback is assembly. The 24 main screws I could not get to bite unless done by the provided screwdriver so using an impact or compact drill didn't help. Because of the angles you can only use 2 fingers, thumb and 1st finger to grip the driver due to close quarters. The directions are symbolic and not that clear, be careful to take your time or you'll end up assembling this wrong and have to start again. I found the assembly instructions very confusing multiple times. The 24 wood screws, holding the top and bottom sections, need to be replaced by something more substantial for $440. I'm expanding my process and would considered buying another one due to it's convenience over conventional storage methods.

The Meeden 5 Tier Art Cart is an excellent addition to my art studio. I have been searching for something that would accommodate my brushes, paints, pallet knives, and other tools....but, it had to have wheels. I tend to move my easels around the studio and often work more than one easel so, having something that could roll to another easel was a must. This is constructed with solid beech wood, metal corner brackets, metal drawer pulls, includes the stainless brush wash, and has four built-in casters which roll smoothly, providing easy mobility around my studio. The inclusion of drawers makes organization so simple, allowing me to store various art supplies conveniently with easy access while at the easel. I love that I can choose place my long handle brushes straight or sideways in the drawers without any issues. The tray top has a removable pallet. While I prefer my handheld French pallet, the fact that the included pallet is removable allows for you to easily clean it when you get paint on it and provides a moisture barrier on the top tray/working surface. The cart's design offers ample storage space without taking up much floor space, making it a practical solution for artists with limited room. Plus, this cart is very attractive with a touch of sophistication. Overall, the Meeden 5 Tier Art Cart not only enhances the functionality of my studio but also adds a visually pleasing element with its quality wood construction. I am so excited to have this cart and view it as a valuable asset in my art studio.

Pay attention to the instructions. Inventory the parts. The bolts for the drawer stops go in the front to keep the drawers from sliding out all the way when opening; the instructions do not mention this. The pieces are not labeled so you don’t know until you know which side is left and which is right. 3 of my drawer stop bolts don’t go in all the way (threads are stripped); one of the drawers was flawed so I had to sand off the flaw so it would slide smoother. I was short 8 screws to attach the casters. My theory is I got a dud. One that Meeden pawned off to Amazon after it was returned. Good news is Amazon gave me a credit so I wouldn’t have to go through the hassle of disassembling and returning it. Somewhat disappointed I didn’t get a better item. Other than these things, it’s a nice cart. It will do the job in organizing my supplies while I paint.

I recently set up an art studio in my basement and wanted a cart to set up next to my easel. The cart was easy to assemble and the size is perfect for my needs and my space. The cart drawers slide easily in and out and store quite a bit of art supplies. The cart itself rolls easily around. I am not using the wash busket holder. Instead I am using a Silicoil glass jar for gamsol. I did modify the removable shelf to use the Silicoil jar as the Silicoil jar did not have a lip to hold the jar in the shelf hole. Easy modification using some pieces of common hardwood from Lowes and a Ryobi stapler gun. I attached the hardwood pieces to the underside of the cart shelf (see photos below). I may cut another hole in this shelf as I also use a second Silicoil glass jar for another medium. I wouldn't hesitate to purchase this item again.

Solid cart!!! I love this addition to my studio. It hold sooo much paint! It was pretty straightforward to pit together. Not easy but no curse words were said.

While the cart arrived promptly and well packaged, it was, as expected, in many pieces that needed assembled. The instructions were limited to several line drawings of the different parts, all labeled with letters or numbers, followed by a page showing (sort of) assembly steps. My husband, a pretty mechanically inclined guy and I kept scratching our heads because Part 1 and Part 4 seemed slightly different in the drawings but identical in the box. I pointed out that the nice brass plate with the Meeden logo would be upside down on the lower shelf, and the finish was rough assembling it that way, with the nice finish hidden facing the floor. But that was the only way the side supports would work (and they fit perfectly). All okay, more or less, til we got to the wheels. No predrilled holes, no support beams on the lovely underside. They had enclosed two top trays and no bottom shelf. We finally attached the wheels (using only 3 instead of 4 screws so we could mount the very solid wheels on the thin wood sides instead of the bottom because we of course didn't have the bottom piece with the support slats for the wheels. I know I probably could've called or emailed someone for a replacement part, but how long an ordeal would that have been? The cart is lovely, and with our creative rigging it works as expected. But having the correct parts would've made assembly a snap and saved us an afternoon. I would buy it again, as all my oil paints fit perfectly in the drawers with jars and bottles and stuff on the bottom shelf and its table-top high, just the right height for me and my easel.

Vraiement exact à la commande Petit moins la couleur du bois ne correspond pas à celle du chevalet commande précédemment. Bois teinte plus rouge

Ottimo prodotto. Facile da montare, bello esteticamente e funzionale. Buono anche il legno. Imballaggio di consegna eccellente insieme alla tempistica.

This is a very sturdy item and does everything you would expect of it!!

I really love this. Well built everything was so simple to put together and it is beautiful - super functional for all of my painting supplies including all my acrylics, oil, spray paints, solvents, brushes... and more! Super fantastic and I totally recommend this product.

Great art cart. Very big.
