I've been thinking about it for a while, now it's time to do it. What do you use?

I just have a simple 2 wheel set up. Would like Rocka Roller type like that.

I use a dolly that I customized with a larger base built out of tubing along with a four wheeled cart.

I bought one of these last year. Pricey but I use it all the time.
Really helps this old back of mine...

There is nothing better than a Rock-n-Roller. These things are tough and take a beating with grace. Just get the big hard wheels instead of the inflatable ones.

I bought the one you show in the first post about a year or two ago at Walmart for around $40. It's light and very strong and it's compact. It can be used as a a hand cart or as a rolling cart by changing the handle position.

It's not huge so you might need to take two loads depending on how much gear you use. That's what I usually have to do.

Because of it's light weight and compact size it fits in my minivan great. It's sturdy and will last for many years. Is it the best? Probably not, but it works pretty well for me.

I don't know if you can still get them at Walmart for $40-$50, but it's probably worth checking into. It would be nice to be able to take everything in one trip, but that means a bigger and probably heavier cart.

I just took a closer look at the one you posted originally and it's an upgraded version of the one I got. It has better pneumatic wheels. Mine has hard rubber wheels. For about $100 that's a really nice cart/dolly. Heavy duty too. The nylon frame makes it real light and a pleasure to lift. Wish I had that one instead.

Stogie, Birdofsong suggested the hard wheels, before I make my purchase, I'm curious to know why you'd prefer inflatable? I can imagine it's for going over curbs?

I snagged this cart at a Sams Club best 80.00 bucks I ever spent. It's not too heavy 38 lbs. and the upright handles are a very sturdy aluminum. And it's made in the USA. I also looked at a Milwaukee model but it was not as sturdy poor weld joints imported from China and cost 10.00 more bucks.

I'm not sure why you would want the hard tires over the pneumatic ones I like the cushioning of the air filled tires.
