I'm a 75-year-old woman who lives alone. I have five steps leading up to my front door and I am unable to carry a case of Coca-Cola or 35 bottles of water up those stairs. I have relied on a neighbor and did not feel I should take his time always. This dolly is perfect for me. It is easy to handle and gets the job done. I love it. Also I will be able to use it during my next move to carry boxes.
