Product Highlights
- Lightweight
- Rugged Steel
- No Moveable Pins
- Low-profile Tubeless Wheels
Multi-Cart is widely regarded as the go-to brand for anyone who needs to "take it on the road" safely and dependably. From the powder-coat finish to the quality hubs, wheels and the non-skid bed, every element of the design is aimed at the expeditious transport of your delicate gear, even in less than optimal environments.
The patented design instantly telescopes and transforms into any of 8 configurations to fit any equipment size or shape replacing the enabling quick and ergonomic movement of huge amounts of gear and supplies with a small storage footprint.
8-in-1 Equipment Transporter - R8LP Mid has rear low-profile (LP) hard-rubber wheels for easy transport over rough terrain while avoiding down-time due to punctured tubes. It has a 500 lb load capacity.
- Equipped with patent-pending G-Force wheels and casters which are strong, lightweight and ride super quiet. Concentric hole design is structurally strong yet gives casters lighter weight.
- Glossy textured finish resists equipment slippage better than smooth finishes and is super tough.
- Frame telescopes to stack loads high.
- Non-skid frame bed surface resists load slippage.
- Spring loaded wing bolts won't vibrate out.
- Stair skids ease hauling up steep stairs.
- Strong tube axles are 43% lighter than solid axles.
- Expandable frame accommodates innumerable cargo sizes and shapes.
- Strong perforated front axle reduces weight and accommodates bungee cords.
- Bold modern design. 4" casters with soft tread roll smoother over rough terrain than typical 2" or 3" casters used on small carts.

I purchased this extendable cart after shooting a Wedding on a golf course and sadly watching my second Videographer lug 5 big bags across a golf course. I looked at several other Multicart selections and this one fit the bill for me because of the height of the handle bars. No other review mentioned it but after looking through different sites I finally found that this one you don't really have to bend over to push the cart as the bars come up about 38" off the ground.
The whole thing is really sturdy. It comes in a few pieces and takes about 3-5 minutes to put together. The wheels seem strong and its plenty strong enough to hold my 5 bags (two big Video camera cases, two heavy tripods and a 5th big bag with lights, sound equipment). It rolls and turns like a charm and I feel like I could crash it and it wouldn't break. It also easily fits through doors which is nice.
Everything stays on the cart real nicely but now with a few bungee cords, my ride is solid as ever. Great purchase!

Assembly - moderately well written. I believe I got an open product, the pieces were taped to the base and the wheels were already scuffed. Took quite a bit to find all of the parts.
Heavy weights - great for moving sound equipment
Design - the small steering wheels easily get caught/wedged/stuck if you do not have perfect surface. Going up a handcap ramp, when the smaller wheels got to the lip, they turned and the frame bent. Shouldn't have happened, load wasn't even close to max allowance.

Comments about MultiCart 8-in-1 Equipment Transporter - R8LP Mid:
Since the cart can extend itself to the desired lenght, you can easily secure loads. I've own it since one week and have already used it 5 times and I was glad I had it. Before I'd used all sorts of hand carts and have had falling boxes off of them and so forth, this one is perfect.

Comments about MultiCart 8-in-1 Equipment Transporter - R8LP Mid:
I purchased this product the evening before a big corporate video shoot that was to take place in Westchester. Given the short turn around I was forced to do the shoot solo. The 8 in 1 was easy to put together, had the perfect width rails for me to wrap bungies around and easily expanded to hold all the equipment necessary. If I had had to make multiple trips this project would never have gotten off the ground.

Comments about MultiCart 8-in-1 Equipment Transporter - R8LP Mid:
I use the cart to move photo equipment in the studio and on location. Hopping curbs is no problem and the ride does not rattle my equipment to death.
I used the older model with pneumatic tires when I was a full-time photog. Sometimes the tires would need air at inopportune times. This is no longer a problem with this newer model.
It moves through doorways with no problem. Love it!
No negatives to report. Put it together in about two minutes (not counting unpacking).
