Review on 🚚 MT10001 4-Wheel Monster Moving Supplies by Todd Look

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Much better than the regular You-Haul/Hazard Freaught/Homeless Despot moving carts!

I used to buy You-Hawl/Hazard Freight/Homeless Despot moving vans for $10-20. you suck! I even broke them, about three to be exact. And the tiny wheels on it suck. They caught every crack in the sidewalk and the whole cart slid out. They wouldn't even climb over the doorstep. And my wife's organ was damaged beyond repair when one of the stupid wheels failed and the whole organ toppled over and fell off. While office supplies! So I ordered it hoping it could be at least a little bit better. To my surprise, it came in a very large box. In damn bubble wrap! bubble wrap! The guy from China who packed the thing thought it was a TV? Hm, I thought to myself. It has potential. A few notes. First, it's not exactly hardwood. The long ends are oak, as are the undersides of the short sides, but the top short slats are pine. The wheel bolts only go through hardwood, so it's structurally sound. Just aesthetically disturbing. And the finish is a typical cheap shellac. Also, as some have pointed out, the rubber tread is a bit flimsy and not the kind of pretty sticky work you might find in a photo framing mat. There were several air bubbles. But who cares, I didn't buy it to look pretty, I didn't buy it to put on the wall as modern art or anything; Got it to move our ever-growing junk! The first thing I tried was our old console piano. type.elevator. and place it in the center of the cart. The carriage didn't slide and the piano held firmly on the rubber rails. I rolled over the threshold and straight out the door into the garage to collect dust. Never hung and rolled smoothly. Rubber wheels are a good size for Goldilocks. Big enough to roll over bumps and pavement cracks with ease, but still small enough to be stable. It sits slightly higher than the regular ones, about an inch or two. But I have yet to break it or break anything that moves it. I haven't done anything crazy with it like trying to move a car away from it, but so far I'm very happy with it, I haven't compared it to a similar monster yet. Mainly because they are still relatively expensive and I am relatively poor. And cheap too. But it's definitely cheaper than a broken piano, organ, or dresser. And save yourself the embarrassment of using copious amounts of profanity in your front yard in front of your neighbors when your wife's prized organ falls off and breaks in the yard because the $10 wagon couldn't take it. And the next day, listen to people whining about their backs (idiots. Keep your back straight, raise your knees, and take your time. It's going nowhere!) Sigh. Moral of the story: If you value your belongings, your relationships with your neighbors, and your sanity, buy quality. And this moving truck is quality!

Pros
  • Sturdy and sturdy construction
Cons
  • So far so good
