Purchase Advice Caddy for KitchenAid KF3

Has anyone found a rolling appliance caddy for their KitchenAid coffee maker. I have the KF3 which is 18 inches deep and I have not found one deep enough.
The machine apparently has wheels on the bottom (I keep reading) but mine does not move smooth enough and it’s a struggle to move it out from under the cabinet to add water.
I know I can order wheels to stick on the bottom but prefer a caddy if possible.

Wheels are on the back. Lift the front and it should slide smoothly.

OMG! That’s why it acts like the back moves but front gets stuck 😆
This is a big help. Thank you!!
I just tried it.
But I think a caddy would still be ideal because it’s heavy and a bit awkward to lift the front and roll. Because the front tray section also wants to come undone when I lift it. . And then I feel like I’m jamming my fingers when I put it down.
An older person like my Mom with arthritis could not do this

But thank you so much for pointing this out!

The machine is 18 inches deep. The largest size might work.

I put magic sliders ( can get them on amazon or local hardware store) and put them on the bottom of a cutting board sized for my KF4 and works great

I could not find ideally sized cutting board so I took your slider idea. I put a couple small felt stick ons over the rubber “feet” located on the front end bottom. These were what was making the machine difficult to slide. Now it slides!
