Whitmor Extra Large Utility Foldable Shopping Cart with Wheels, 100 Lb Capacity, Heavy Duty Grocery Cart with Steel Frame, Foam Handle, Rolling Collapsible Utility Trolley for Grocery, Laundry, Black

This utility cart has saved my groceries shopping and laundry days! I live in an apartment, so it's hard to carry a lot of things uo to my floor. After I bought this cart it's been much easier! It's very easy to assemble and the material seems very durable!

This is a very nice cart, seems well made, very sturdy. I had thought about getting one with swivel wheels, but this works just fine, no problems maneuvering it around at all. I bought the deluxe, and I feel this is plenty big enough to handle getting cleaning supplies (including my Shark floor cleaner), and groceries up to my mother-in-law's apartment, which is the primary purpose I bought it for. I put an large S hook near the inside top to hook my purse on. It fits very well into the back of my Honda CRV.The only assembly is putting the wheels on - not difficult, but it took me a little while to figure it out, taking maybe 30 minutes total to assemble, and it may be difficult for someone with poor dexterity. The instructions said to go to their website to see a video, but there were no assembly videos there. I did find a video for a similar product on YouTube though, and that helped - I got a little stuck on putting the front wheels on. It makes it easier to slide the axel into the hole opposite the side you're working on to stabilize it, - it comes out easily when you're ready to work on that side. The front wheel axel cotter pins are inserted up through the hole in the inner tube of the cart body, and through the hole in the axel rod, then the cap is attached over that. That was the part I got stuck on (I am not a handy person!).Overall, I am very happy with the purchase, and would definitely recommend!

First of all the unit is meticulously finished. The gloss black finish is very attractive. The cushioned full-width handlebar grip is very comfortable. It holds a lot. I loaded it to the top with groceries comprised mostly of canned goods, dairy products, frozen goods, veggie lunch meats, fruits/vegetables, and canned sparkling water. In other words, there was a great deal of liquid weight. There were only two lightweight objects: A bag of corn tortilla chips and a box of coffee filters. This was a HEAVY load.Rolling from my carport space to my stairway was very smooth and easy. I have 13 steps from the base of the stairs to my second-floor condo door. This would be the real test, getting up the steps. The cart was able to negotiate the steps by pulling it a bit upward and forward, step by step, while it was behind me. I did take my time as it could have easily toppled backward without a firm grip on the handlebar. I got all the items up in one pass which would easily have taken me around four-six trips without the cart.One word of caution. It is NOT 40.1" tall as indicated in the specs. It is 41" from the bottom of the wheel to the top of the handle [see pictures 1 and 2.] BUT when the cart is collapsed, the length increases to 45.5" [see pictures 3 and 4.] Collapsed it wouldn't fit into my car's trunk, it was simply too long placed lengthwise or sideways. So, I put the collapsed cart in my car's back seat. [If not collapsed it might fit provided there is adequate height in the trunk to accommodate it, but that could infringe on space to put groceries after shopping.]For some, the assembly may be a bit challenging. The wheels get anchored to the axles with cotter pins at the end. There are two different types of pins, one type for the front, another for the rear with different anchoring methods for each. The pins are there to prevent the wheels from spinning off the ends of the axles while moving. the pins themselves are not weight-bearing. Getting the pins inserted in the tiny axle anchoring holes was a bit tricky for both front and rear. Then, fully engaging the pins to lock by pressing in for the rear and bending the ends for the front was also a bit tricky.

Easy to put together. Sturdy wheels and functions with plenty of space.

Assembly wasn't complicated, just a couple of tools needed. I've used this cart for the most part on flat, smooth surfaced, indoor settings. I've never loaded it past the weight limit, but have transported items up to 70lbs in the cart. No problems. (If you plan to load the cart with very heavy items on a regular basis, you should place a piece of plywood or a stiff cutting board into the bottom of the cart. This will prevent any "bowing" of the carts bottom frame.)The handle height seems to be just right for a person of average size. The cart does take a little getting used to when it comes to maneuvering since the front wheels do not swivel. (I decided to go with fixed wheels instead of swiveling models. The more moving parts there are, the more issues you'll have).Now if you intend to take this cart on the road, sidewalk or rough pavement, the durability of the wheels might become an issue over time.
