I will need to look up the info and address. My cart is 48" X 18" but I cheated a little bit. The cart came with pieces which were supposed to protect things from falling off. I took those parts, and instead if having them up-right, I placed them behind, on the shelves flat, as an extender to the depth of the cart.
The covers came in both 18" depth and 22". I bought the 22" so it will cover it with the extra depth of my shelves. I used only 3 shelves.
I will explain my lighting:
The top and middle shelves are each lighted with 2-48" T5 strip bulbs. You can buy them individually and connect them with a joiner cord which comes with them. They only need 1 outlet if the 2 are joined together with the joiner cord. They only cost about $35.00 - $39.00, and if you think you want to add more light later you just buy another strip, and connect it to the other 2.
The bottom shelf has a regular T5 unit for the plants which take high light.
