How well will it work as a shopping cart, getting on and off the bus with groceries?

This is not being used for food. This cart is being used to transport beach chairs, towels, toys, food, etc

I think it would be way too big for that. The cart is large and somewhat heavy for folding and lifting onto a bus. It is perfect for the beach because it can hold folding chairs, blankets, coolers, towels, etc. I would not recommend it for groceries.

I don't think this is the item you would want. Unless this is a kneeling type bus, that allows a wheel chair & this cart to roll onto it's step,,, It does not lift easily when loaded. It is very easy to lift when empty,, both when open & folded up,,, The cloth fabric & webbing material I think would quickly become compromised if pickup up repeatedly with a heavy load.

It's not quite as sturdy as a shopping cart. You can't lean on it like you can lean on a shopping cart. But it helps with balance. Pulling it helps with balance also.

Not heavy duty as we would normally define it. I have been using mine for six month with no difficulties, though. It works fine for general grocery hauling. (Even through the snow). All wheels are locked in position, so you will have to tip it to steer properly. I think it is just fine for the low price!

I didn't use it for commuting on a regular basis but used it while biking on vacation. It is very small and not really heavy duty. But if you're just carrying some light stuff, should be good.

Ours has carried many bags of groceries, including heavy objects. We have had it since December of last year and use it about once a week. We even transported our Christmas tree sections to storage in it. That might have been a little too heavy for it but it still works fine. All in all a durable cart. The rotating wheels and collapsible feature are very helpful to us.

I used it to bring home potting soil, pots and flowers from the garden center, on the bus and people were able to walk past me I was sitting in an aisle facing seat with cart next to me, not in front of me. Be tough if the bus isn't made for wheelchair access (wider aisles). It's not as big as some strollers I've seen on buses. I think you'll be fine.

Excellent. I could turn in a single motion on a bus to slide into the wheelchair space. (I'm now the not-so-proud owner of a Gline Spitfire, which compared to the Scootie is a piece of crap.) :-(

Depends on how light you can go. I use it for daily commuting, it carries a change of clothes, lunch and a book or two with miscellaneous items like keys, wallet, tools, etc. If all you needed was a couple changes of clothes and miscellaneous gear it would work. It works well for what I need, easily secures to the rack and has some additional space on top with elastic net and strap.

Reasonably heavy, but it has a handle on one side and small wheels on the other, so you can drag it like a suitcase. If you're only going from the van to the building you should be good! The design is nice how it goes together, it protects the speaker and the controls when in transport.

I use it to move a week's worth of groceries from my car to the house: I fill it full and over the top and it has served me well. I wouldn't put more than 100 lbs in it for any long distance or push it over gravel surface.

I think this stroller works well going to the store. Its very light in motion. The child sits up high. The only drawback is the basket that falls occassionally my suggestion is to tie it up with something but other than that it works well.

Absolutely not! It would not be sturdy enough to pull up steps and would be overly bulky for a bus. Not to mention it would not be cost effective. Please look elsewhere!

Yes very sturdy. Just understand the basket isn't very deep. For groceries I would think you want something deeper.

No I wouldn't recommend it for public transportation it's not the easiest cart to maneuver around. I use it from my car to the elevator in my building. And since I moved to a private home it sits in my garage. It's great for the beach and its light weight. Most of its parts are plastic so you have to be careful not to pull or push it to roughly.

This cart is definitely not a heavy duty type. For a few bags of groceries it is just fine. For 20 money bags full of change, I just don't think it will work. Jerry S.

To be completely honest, for your situation I would say it would be too heavy and an annoyance. After its collapsed its not the easiest to move. It lays flat and that's the only way to carry it, so to get it on the bus may be a challenge. Otherwise it's a great stroller!

I use mine to haul groceries to the second floor.l built a cart to put the groceries in.it works great. I doubled the wire so it would double the weight it could pick up.
