Wesco Superlite Folding Handtruck - Weight Capacity 175lbs (79.5kg)

Comments about Wesco Superlite Folding Handtruck:

I'm an attorney and I have the smaller version of the wesco folding truck which I use for my trial work. I love it. I decided to upgrade and get the larger model as I started to carry more and more boxes, and trial exhibits to court. The smaller unit was great for a trial bag and perhaps smaller items. But when you need to carry multiple boxes with trial folders, and depositions, it is much easier to have this model. I strongly recommend this product.

Highly recommended. I haul around guitar amps all the time and this portable, heavyduty handtruck more than covers all situations including 4x12 cabs.

I'm a professional photographer and often need to carry lots of gear while occupying as little room as possible. This toy does the job - when not in use it takes less space then my camera case, but when needs be, easily carries 100lbs + of gear.

I WAS ON A SHOPPING SPREE AND DECIDED TO GET SOMETHING TO CARRY ALL THE GOODIES I BOUGHT I SAW THIS HAND TRUCK AND FROM JUST LOOKING AT IT FOLDED UP IT DIDN'T IMPRESS ME BUT AS I PICKED IT UP AND OPENED IT, IT FELT LIKE A QUALITY MADE PRODUCT. IN USING IT MAKES MY SETTING UP A LOT QUICKER AND THE WHEELS EVEN ROLLED OVER THE SADDLE OF THE DOOR WAY WITH OUT HAVING TO TURN AROUND OR APPLYING EXTRA FORCE. I CAN'T SAY IF HOLDS THE 175lbs IT CLAIMS BUT I CAN LOAD IT UP PRETTY GOOD WITH MY EQUIPMENT. THE BEST PART IS I CAN FOLD IT UP AND TUCK IT AWAY IN A SMALL AREA (REAL SMALL). SURE THERE ARE SOME CHEAPER HAND TRUCKS OUT THERE, BUT YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR NOWADAYS. TIME WILL TELL IF IT HOLDS UP! HAVE TO GET BACK TO YOU ON THAT!

My uses for this hand truck vary from transporting heavy Pelican cases between cars and buildings to pulling down dirt paths to photoshoots that are on location but in confining areas. It's not a bulletproof indestructible piece of equipment, but it is strong for it's size and weight. THe fact that it folds down to nearly a bit more than 2 inches is great for when storage is limited... it easily fits under a couch or behind a door

I'd advise getting a tie down strap instead of using the bungee cord that comes with it. With a bunch of cases stacked and tied down, the handruck isn't the most balanced either.

Comments about Wesco Superlite Folding Handtruck:

This car is durable and has a nice wide wheel-base. My last card was fine as far as load capacity goes but if one wheel hit a bump or something, it was always a struggle to keep the cart balanced. With this, there is NO problem at all. Great buy!

Comments about Wesco Superlite Folding Handtruck:

I just got the handtruck a couple weeks ago, and so far I haven't tested its weight capacity. I do know it appears very sturdily built. I have used it to transport my video camera and some small bags around the city. The handtruck is sleek and so I don't look silly carting it around even if my load is borderline light enough to carry (if I want to sweat it out for blocks). I debated between the heavier duty one and this one, but I decided this was good enough for carrying my camera, tripod, and lighting kit. The other one is four pounds heavier and I think that's enough to make getting it in and out of the car that much more of a hassle. This seems like you can tote a few things, or load it all up. (Again, I haven't had heavy loads yet...) Good luck with your decision.

I use the handtruck to carry a 500mm lens along with a tripod. The 7" wheels make for an easy roll.

Comments about Wesco Superlite Folding Handtruck:

There is nothing bad or even marginal about this item. It is everything and more that the manufacturer says it is. It is so simple, so well engineered, so lite weight. I just cannot say enough about it. It's so goo that I wrote WESCO before I used it!

And if you do get one just watch the reaction you get when people see haw easily it is deployed and collapsed. It draws attention.

In conclusion it is one of the best purchases I've ever made and I will recommend it without compunction to anyone in the market for a lite weight truck.

I bought this to transport my photography gear. I have also used it while moving out of my apartment. The only thing that bothers me about this product is I wish it could hold a little more weight.

Comments about Wesco Superlite Folding Handtruck:

I use this handtruck for a variety of reasons not necessarily photo related. The handtruck is really strong and sturdy and it folds up to next to nothing for easy storage. The fact that it is open allows the user to carry a variety of sizes without being confined to a certain shape and size. It's a great product to have around the house. Strong and sturdy at a great price!

Comments about Wesco Superlite Folding Handtruck:

I bought this handtruck to cart around a box I will be making for photography items like portable power and flash accessories. I love the light weight, very portable and very good construction quality. The only minor thing I dont like is, there is no way to lock the handtruck in the open position. It stands on it's own and will be fine if you have something on the nose plate, but if you push down on the nose plate with nothing on it, the handtruck starts to collapse naturally into its compact storage position.

Comments about Wesco Superlite Folding Handtruck:

I use this handtruck for carrying view camera equipment when hiking in other than difficult terrain. Using it takes the weight off me, allowing me to concentrate on my work, and not my shoulders. The cart is durable, and easier to set up and take down than previous folding handtrucks, and easily handles heavy loads on semi-wilderness hiking trails. In addition, it's a bargain well worth it to make life as a landscape photographer easier.

Comments about Wesco Superlite Folding Handtruck:

This Handtruck is great. Very less weight, flat and big weels. As a camera team (ENG) we
walk a lot with our heavy tripod and lenses etc. Now it is much better, I have a bucket on the handtruck, and the heavy tripod in the bucket. Yesterday we walked all day in Amsterdam. Now it is so easy.

Comments about Wesco Superlite Folding Handtruck:

This product is so easy to unfold and go. It folds down so it fits right with other equipment in a trunk and it really does save wear and tear on my shoulders and back. It is big enough to fit my lights and camera bag and wheels around nicely.

Comments about Wesco Superlite Folding Handtruck:

easy to use ,fold itself like a snap and absorb shock on the go

Comments about Wesco Superlite Folding Handtruck:

I bought this to replace a lighter duty one that broke under the weight of my gear. The wheels fold inward for storage, making this an easy-to-stow item that you can take with you anywhere.

Comments about Wesco Superlite Folding Handtruck:

What is great about the Superlite: carries all my photo gear, balance it right and pulls easily, however the best is going from a grass parking lot to an event like an air show and putting the large 7" wheels to work-effortless (others with their small wheels getting stuck in the dirt!!).
