Outstanding ProductStrengths: Lightweight; folds up for easy storage; large wheels Weakness: None I've used this cart for 10 months without any problems. I use it daily to haul 40+ pounds of gear between a parking ramp and my downtown office. The large wheels work great on bumpy streets and over sidewalk snow. I can't live without it! I've had no problems with any of the working parts. 100% of readers found this review helpful. Did you find it helpful or unhelpful? TopCompare PricesAdvertisement

Mechanism durability very poor
Strengths: Good for it's rated load
Weakness: It is good for the first month of opening and folding the cart.
After about a month of light uses. The unfolding cam like mechanism of the wheels will not work. You basically have to hold and spread the wheels to set it to cart position (open). The problem is the wedging mechanism the opens the wheel is made of soft plastic against a aluminum shoulder cam to open spread the wheels to open position got worn out quickly. And if does this the wheels are not set right the wheels will toe -in during use and it topples down unexpectedly and awkwardly. It's a good design but poor implementation. I bought it as trial purchase for technicians to use, because of it's simplicity and lightweight.
