Would this be effective in moving a 400 pound wood stove up a flight of stairs?

Yes. The dimensions of the woodstove may make it awkward, but with a little ingenuity these things make a huge difference in carrying an awkward load

They might help. But carrrying things upstairs is always difficult. the person on the top will not be able to hold onto the stove just carry some of the weight. The person on the bottom will have the weight bearing down on them. i think a dolly would be much better.

The straps may be a little on the long side depending on the size of the stove. I bought to move 36" wide, tall cabinets and that was a little of a struggle. The height of the cabinets made it easier.

I think the problem is not the weight but the different elevations of the lifters (assuming the strove does not exceed the weight limits of the straps). There are different locations on the harness to hook the straps. I think the lower person could use the lowest loop attachment while the upper person used the highest loop attachment. This might be enough to keep the load balanced while traversing the stairs. Also, the taller person should be the lowest lifter to help that. The main issue (I think) is the correct usage of the strap loops and the heights of the lifters.

I think a vacuum would do a better job on stairs. This is mainly for clothing and furniture material.

I think it will. It's pretty sturdy, but I don't like overall design of it. Stairs are too close to each other, they are round instead of being oval with closer to flat front surface - which makes many exercises to be painful. Etc. etc.

Yes, works very well on stairs. Just remove the long tube and connect the power head directly to the motor unit.

I would not install a stove jack on this. The side walls are not vertical. The canvas is not fireproofed. The main horizontal support runs the length of the top of the roof, blocking egress by the stove pipe. I use a BigBuddy propane heater with a 20 lb. tank, which works very well.

I do not think you would have any problems pulling the cart up stairs. The cart itself is not that heavy.

If you are talking about a wood stove yes. I would also use a doorway fan, as the heat rises.

A safety notice sticker on the step-stool says working load 200 lbs. You might get away with going over that, but you would be testing your luck pretty far.

I don't know if that would work because the ramp plastic is fairly deep. I think it would be hard to "hook" the ramp onto the stairs.

I don't think it would. The back wheels are pretty good size, the metal parts may not even touch your stairs. But if it does line the bars with duct tape to keep it from scratching.

If you are protecting it from the radiant heat coming off of the chimney/exhaust - yes. This will work very well in terms of blocking nearly all of the radiated heat. You may have to get creative with mounting/attaching the pad... I have a wooden chest that sits 5-6" from my wood stove. Prior to using this pad - i was having to move the chest every time the stove was on full blast or run the stove at lower temps.... This lets me keep it where of is and not worry about or the contents becoming a fire hazard.

I wouldn't advise it. Even if the attachment is lightweight, it could still weigh imit down and become a fire hazard.

Hi, yes it works great. I live on the second floor but I use the elevator. I put kitty litter and pilled to the top. I cannot say about stairs but its pretty sturdy.

Any stove is going to work at elevations, just not as well the higher you go. For high elevations, I recommend using fuels that need little oxygen to burn. But I am no pro at low oxygen environments.

Yes! I have used the Polar Utility Cart for hauling firewood and pulling it up the four stairs to the wood rack on my deck. The trick is to not overload the trailer as it will become too heavy and more awkward to maneuver.

That *might* work but the rack alone is very heavy - with the pots and pans daggling, it weighs it down even more. I wouldn't risk ruining your ceiling!

I would suggest you confirm it can handle the weight of your stack. If it can, the feet of the bottom unit should be able to be secured in the holes in the corner bracket. Keep in mind, however, that this only has two wheels that swivel so it is going to turn on a dime. It will need some maneuvering room. Otherwise, it should work just fine in my opinion.
