makes my day easier
by David (5 out of 5 stars)

Love this cart, removed the middle tray for my needs as a a/v tech, and even hang my ladder and roll it over long distances . I use it as a work bench when it's not carrying everything into the job site, and it comes fully built and folds very easily when the day is over. People always ask me where to get one . Highly recommended for those that can't haul a full size cart and need to move a bunch of tools around , or need a portable laptop table .

This is the BEST product I have bought in the last 12 months

This is the BEST product I have bought in the last 12 months.

I originally purchased this because I wanted a way to move my own stuff from one place to another in the fewest amount of trips possible. I wanted something that I would take up as little storage space as possible, and be light enough for me to lift in and out of my car. AND I didn't want to pay a fortune.

THIS cart exceeded my expectations.

Assembly: First of all, it came fully assembled. I was able to take it right out of the box, and use it immediately. I didn't have to tighten any nuts or bolts, or snap anything together.

Size: I did think this was going to be bigger. Looking at the measurement description online is one thing. If you're like me, I read measurements and "think" i know how big it is.... but I'm always wrong. I encourage you to pull out a yard stick or a measuring tape and actually see what 15 inches x 26 1/8 inches looks like, and what 34 inches tall looks like! That being said, even thought the product is smaller than I expected, I am still super thrilled with it.

Quality: The cart is thoughtfully engineered and made of sturdy plastic and metal parts. I loaded about 120 pounds of craft supplies onto this cart and pushed it over 500 yards. The shelves did not bow or buckle. The wheels smoothly rolled across concrete, carpet and hardwood flooring. I was able to lock the wheels when I got to my destination.

Travel: The cart itself is reasonably light. I was able to fold and lift it into my car all by myself. Due to the size of the cart, I was also able to slide it into the car on it's side so it took up as little space as possible within my car. This allowed me to pack around it and my view was not obstructed.

Storage: When not in use, I am able to fold the cart up and store it against the wall in my garage. It takes up about 15 in x 8 in of floor space when it is collapsed. Its so light that I could probably mount a few hooks on the wall and hang it up!

Function: I can see myself using this service cart at so many different events, crafting events, family get togethers, office potlucks, team events, etc...

I totally recommend this cart! Great Quality, Great Price.

great cart, great size.

I use this cart to do product demonstrations in stores. It holds a lot and rolls easily. I keep it in the back of my SUV. I folds up easily. I have also used it for catering. It holds full large aluminum pans with out a problem. The only thing to remember is to push the lock down or it will fold up when you are rolling it.

Awesome cart, awful wheels.
by dizzzah (4 out of 5 stars)

Purchased two of these carts for an out of state project that needed interior signs to be installed inside a building still under construction. I was drawn to this cart because it appears sturdy, I appreciated the three levels of storage capacity, the ability to fold, and most important, the ability to roll. These carts hit almost all the marks. While I felt the price was a little high for the overall size, the convenience of them arriving in 2 days, with free shipping, and being able to collapse won me over. The carts arrived promptly. Though the outer packaging was damaged, the carts themselves were without defect. They collapse and uncollaspe (is this a word?) very easily and the carts themselves are fairly light weight. The construction of the carts was perfect for my purposes: I could set a cardboard box full of signs on top, have my tape measure, caulk gun, and level on the second level, and third level for water and road snacks. The set up worked well.

Here's where the cart was lacking and minus one star - the wheels! As I was on a construction site, there were power cords EVERYWHERE, these wheels would not go over them. The cart had to be picked up, or one side lifted at a time to get over the cords. Also, when they started to get a bit dirty (mostly just dust), they started to not roll smoothly and the cart became quite ungainly. I will most likely be taking a trip to Harbor Freight to procure heavier duty casters.

Awesome cart, does everything I was hoping for, very lightweight and easy to use!
by B. Day (5 out of 5 stars)

Awesome cart, just what I wanted! After reading some of the negative reviews I was concerned about durability and the weight of the cart, especially since I do fold it up regularly and stow it away. There seemed to be some confusion about the weight. I swear I saw a review stating as much as 55 lbs. and that the marketing video must have been misleading as it showed a lady lifting it overhead.

I can confirm this is completely false and that the entire cart only weighs 15 lbs. It was effortless to lift out of the box and, as others have mentioned, it's ready to use. I weighed it (photo attached of it on my bathroom scale) to confirm it's a nice lightweight cart.

Furthermore, the reviewers complaining about durability, or that the wheels don't roll as well under heavy loads, must be loading it ridiculously heavy. Under what I'd call normal, reasonable home use (in the garage, working on the car, basic carpentry projects, etc.) it supports all of the loads I've placed on any of the shelves just fine, including rolling it around. It's also really nice that it rolls well when folded up too.

It folds up so easily that I find myself doing just that at the end of each day, rather than leaving it open out of convenience.

Awesome cart. I've used it for more than 10 projects in just the past 2 months, including on my relatively steep driveway, next to the engine bay of my car. So, yes, the locking wheels work well. I even trusted my Macbook Pro on the cart, on the incline, with the wheels in the locked position. :-)

It's one of those purchases you wish you'd made years ago as you think back to all the projects where you put your tools, parts, etc. on the ground, or neighboring shelves, to then lose things. This thing makes each project enjoyable!!

First Thoughts 030918 (UPDATE 3/1/19)
by Alan Gojit (5 out of 5 stars)

I just received my Olympia collapsible cart. Packaging was perfect. Item looks Brand New as it should. I read several positive reviews on Amazon as well as on Home Depots site.
My initial thoughts are this product is well built but needs and appears to be as sturdy as described. I checked the screws as some have mentioned on reviews regarding how loose they come or will eventually fall off. With the advice of other reviewers I decided to add Locktite (blue) to all the bolts/screws as pictured in my review. I simply removed the bolts and added a drop of Locktite to each screw and screwed back together. Locktite is designed to semi-permanently hold metal screws together so they dont come undone due to vibration.
I am Trainer for a sales company and often times I will need to bring Coffee, Donuts, Handouts, Projector(cart will double as my stand) and Screen to my off site trainings. I'll post a follow up in a several weeks with my findings on durability and quality.

UPDATE 3/1/19

My cart is holding up perfectly. None of the screws have come apart thanks to the Loctite blue. I would highly recommend to PULL the cart versus PUSHING it. The smaller wheels will tend to get stuck in larger grooves or taller bumps so I'm mindful and just PULL the cart along. I'm putting roughly 40lbs total on the cart and use it 3 times per week without issue. PRACTICE collapsing and expanding it to avoid the possibility of getting your fingers snagged...Would definitely reccomend and buy again!!!

Pretty sturdy for a folding cart
by BT River (4 out of 5 stars)
December 5, 2016

I got the cart to haul tripods, light stands and weight bags to locations and then to have a flat surface to hold gear. The cart unfolds easily by pulling the handles out. Then you push the black bar on the side down to lock it. Folded the cart is about 42 inches high and is widest (about 8 inches) at the handles. To fold, you pull up on the black handle to unlock and push the sides together. The 3 inch wheels swivel freely on ball bearings.

I had it loaded with about 100 pounds of gear. On hard surfaces, it was easy to move. Rolling over low pile carpeting was okay, too. However, the wheels got caught up when rolled over a rug. The wheel assemblies appear to be removable, so I might see if I can change them out for assemblies with larger wheels.

Overall, pretty good, though I wonder about the durability of the metal bars that form the folding mechanism. I think that they might bend if you force them a little too hard or if you apply lateral force accidentally.
******Update******

The casters have a standard 3/8 inch-16 thread and can be replaced with any caster with the same thread. I replaced the 3 inch casters with a set of 4 inch industrial shelving casters from the big box hardware store. It's easier to roll and will not get stuck in the gaps in concrete floors or elevator doors.

Love it as a medical cart :)
by Heather Erb (5 out of 5 stars)

Super thankful for this cart. I use it for my daughter's medical supplies. And I like it because I can roll everything she needs alongside of her wheelchair. I spent so much time unpacking and repacking after her appointments or school days. Grateful that this seems to be working for us. :)

I priced a lot of different carts and decided on this one due to the price.

Best Purchase Ever!
by Ilene C. (5 out of 5 stars)
September 12, 2017

This is probably the best product I have ever purchased, ever!!!!! I purchased it as a barbecue cart. My kitchen is in the front of my house and I have to go thru the livingroom and den to exit the slider to the backyard. You can pile up the meat in its marinating bowl, condiments, paper goods and plastic silverware, rolls, etc. You name it, it fits somewhere on the cart. Roll it out in one trip. With the commercial wheels, two of us can gently lift it out the slider onto the patio and roll it right up to the grill, table, etc. I have used it as a laundry aid. The laundry basket sits on the top and, living in a ranch style home, as a senior who finds it difficult to carry heavy loads, I can easily move the laundry from hamper to washer/dryer to putting it all away easily. I have used it as a walker in the house. IT IS THE BEST. I injured my foot and instead of using the standard walker with two legs that scrape along, I used my handy utility cart. You can put your portable house phone, cell phone, medications, glasses, pen and paper, water bottle, etc. on it and move everything you need around the house with you. The handles are rubber coated, the cart is stable and it moves easily, whether on my carpet or patio pavers. It is a more useful than I could ever have imagined. I store it open, next to my washer, but it easily folds up to store unobtrusively against the wall.

I took a chance on this cart and wow... It's collapses so easy and fast, fits perfectly in my trunk. Its not meant to carry extra heavy or super big items, but excellent to move things around in 1 trip. Watch my demo video.
