IKEA carts if you want to simulate driving over oil. Why are they made with all four wheels turning?

- actionfromafar 3y agoBecause for some weird reason, IKEA doesn't cheap out on the trolleys. (As opposed to what's in them.)
- mgbmtl 3y agoIt's easier to maneuver, way easier to turn.
- hbarka 3y agoHow do you guys do it? Without a fixed rear axis, it’s difficult to roll in a straight direction. You’re constantly fighting the pull of gravity. With American grocery carts, I can maneuver through a needle even in Costco, because it goes in the direction I point to.
- cameronh90 3y agoTrolleys in the UK and most of Europe have all four wheels turning. Except for Costco which use the US-style ones. I find it much more maneuverable, which is important in our smaller aisles. US-style ones would be a nightmare. That being said, I think both Costco and Ikea should probably conform to local standards.
