Is this basket hard to transport/carry to the court due to its large capacity? Can a child or woman easily carry?

My 5 yr old son carries it to the court with 36+ balls in it. It's lighter than a metal basket.

Yes, it's very light and easy to manage. Of course it would be still be bulky for a small child to carry, but would be fine for say 8 and above.

I think it's very easy to transport = you may have to judge the weight for a child if you fill it to capacity. You can also carry it on your shoulder. I have this one and the smaller one like it.

James, It is indeed a large and cumbersome case, if you intend to carry it. That's just my opinion. I would consider other options if you don't want to wheel a cart around. Hope this helps...

(1) yes (2) it IS very heavy, which makes it very sturdy (a good thing.) 2 adults can move it, but it is a little bit of a struggle as it doesn't have hand-holds and one side is heavier than the other.

We don't use the basket. This Mom's downstairs common use walker as it is lighter weight than her others. She has a heavy duty one upstairs, and another in her car. It does fold for lifting. And I have no problem with it in lifting.

Yes, but it's not blatantly obvious that the basket is removable to passers by. I never take mine off and it's lasted just fine.

yes it should be easy for transporting a child. I was taken around wash. DC through exhibits and I weigh 176. It has small wheels and is light weight but it would be better for a child than it was me.

The box in itself is very lightweight. That being said, I assume it would be slightly heavy to carry but not impossible. However, it is made from a dense foam material and I'm not sure of the filled capacity weight limits to prevent breaking if not supported under a very heavy weight.

not sure what you mean by heavy... if you mean is it heavy to carry around as compared to a wire one, i would say no... and if you are asking if is is heavier duty than the wire ones I would say definitely yes.. i love this basket!!! and LOVE not having to bend over to get the balls ever again!!

I haven't tested the fill capacity of this basket yet. The chains on my are nice and thick and unlike other baskets, they are clipped together and not welded to the baskets. Most baskets I have had break at the welds. I currently have had 5 to 8 pounds of items in this basket, depending on the time, and have had no problems. I would think it could handle 10 lbs at least.

I am able to carry it without any problem. I have a sedentary job and do not work out regularly. It comes with a case with handles so it is not unwieldy --- it is easy to carry and not too heavy.

I am not sure of the weight capacity for the basket, but my 16 pound dog rides everywhere with me in it. I hope this helps with your decision. So far I haven't been let down by my purchase of this basket, especially since I had tried 2 others prior to this one.

check out the specifications on line. they tell you 12 pounds, but it is ackward to handle, I suggest one with a slit in the seat for grabbing to fold=up. I take the back off when I travel as I don't need that and I don't need it when I sit either, I also take off the basket underneath and carry a bag on the handles. if I need to put stuff somewhere. It is very good for someone who needs it for support. I wish there was one that could fold up and could easily be walked beside, but these things have wheels that don't roll that direction when folded.

Personally, I don't think the sides are high enough to be safe. Also, the basket can pop off if weight shifts around. So, in my opinion, no.

It's easy to carry, as there are holes in the sides where you can put your hands. I like the linen basket very much.

It's pretty big, bulky and heavy. You're not going to pile a bunch of stuff on it and take it all in at once necessarily and you will definitely need two hands to carry it.

I use the top two baskets for incoming mail and papers to be filed. The larger botttom basket holds magazines. I have a plant and wireless speaker on top. The unit is at the end of the island in my kitchen. It looks great, is sturdy and is holding up well. Can't really say how much weight it can hold. Have received many compliments on it.

This basket is very big. I can easily fit my large school bag pack into it. So if you carry more than one of that, you would need two. The only problem with having one basket is that the bike becomes unbalanced and it won't stand on its own. You would always have to lean it against the wall after you load the basket with heavy things.
