This 3-Tier Rolling Cart Is the Small Kitchen Storage Upgrade I Bought Twice – It Creates Instant Extra Space
Fun and flexible storage with a conveniently portable design
In small kitchens, when space is at a premium, finding compact and clever storage solutions becomes more important than ever − and it doesn't get much more clever than a multi-tiered, movable solution.
Enter the Simple Houseware 3-Tier Rolling Cart, available in 11 colors at Amazon, which provides ample spacious open storage with an impressively small footprint.
Here's why we think it earns its spot among any stylish small kitchen storage ideas.

Adding this rolling cart to your kitchen is a simple, easy way to boost storage. The solid steel frame means it's strong enough to hold plenty of heavy items, while the four heavy-duty two-inch casters allow for smooth mobility.
The storage in your kitchen arguably has to work harder than any other room in your house. Between pots, pans, glassware, ceramics, food, and more, keeping things behind closed doors is the easiest way to reduce visual clutter in the kitchen.
In small spaces, though, and particularly in rentals, built-in storage is usually scarce. So, why not embrace a more laidback, lived-in look with the 3-Tier Rolling Cart, available in 11 colors at Amazon.
Admittedly, I'm a rolling cart enthusiast − the easygoing, flexible storage solution slots into any space, and looks good while doing it. I've seen them used in the past for storing books in a small space, small bathroom storage, and even for houseplants, but it's in my kitchen that I've found they work best.
Offering additional space, with three spacious baskets, for everything from mugs and glassware to dried and tinned goods, their rollable design means they can be pulled out when needed and sleekly pushed away when not, either into a corner, under a counter, or even into a cabinet. The curved top handles make portability even easier.
You won't need to worry about any items growing mold or going bad, either, as the mesh basket design works to ensure optimum airflow and helpful visibility.
What Shoppers Say
The added hooks offer extra hanging space.
With over 27,500 five-star reviews, shoppers highly rate this designer-recommended small-space storage buy.

'I can sit at my desk and roll the cart right up to where I need it with no trouble. The wheels lock in place, so there is no movement of the cart while I am using it. It rolls around nicely. I am so pleased with this cart that I am getting another one. It is a very versatile cart and could be used for anything.'
In a pinch, you could even use it as an outdoor bar cart when hosting al-fresco this summer − to make mixing up your favorite summer cocktail recipes easier (and better looking) than ever before.
