Great for small shopping trips
I took my Trolley Dolly out for the second time today and am very pleased. The first trip, I had some trouble with the dolly trying to flip on me as I went over rough transitions in the sidewalks and also noticed that the large canvas bag was trying to slide around to where one corner was rubbing against a wheel.
I think the problems I had have been solved. First off, was weight distribution: make sure you layer the heavier items on the bottom so it won't be top heavy. The second issue I had was partially because I was transporting round items (2-little pop bottles and laundry detergent) in the bottom. This time, because I was taking glass bottles to the recycling first, I had the beer box in the bottom. This helped pack things as I was able to put items like the milk, eggbeaters, and heavy cream cartons in the box, and small/flat items like tortillas, toothpaste boxes, pudding mixes around the box.
Overall, I am very pleased with the performance. It goes up and down the few steps to my apartment building very well, as well as the occasional curb. I could see if you were going up and down a full flight of stairs, it could be trying, but no more so than a stroller or rolling luggage.
I have attached several pictures so you can get an idea of how much it can hold in the way of groceries and how I used a box in the bottom to help organize and keep things from shifting around.
