I live in the city and I'm thinking about using this backpack to do quick runs (on foot) to the grocery store. Can it hold a gallon of milk?

No, this would not be a good pack for carrying that much weight. I bought it to take on the Camino in the fall. It was great for afternoons and evening just to carry light weight personal items. The beauty of this pack is that is can be condensed. The straps are not very well padded. It is not intended to be used as a main back pack. More of a travel accessory.

It is big enough, but I wouldn't guarantee it would be sturdy enough. This pack is made of fairly thin nylon material. I think for that weight a canvas backpack would be better.

The sizes of the compartments are pretty adjustable and you should be able to fit a grocery bag in it without any trouble. It's non-slip also so they should stay still. I like mine and abuse it and it still likes me.

Yes, but be aware that there isn't a lot of storage space underneath. A large diaper bag won't fit. It is great for baby comfort and is easy to push. We use it everywhere, zoo, mall, park, etc... It might be a tight fit in stores with super small aisles but it fits in most. We love it and now I take our daughter with me on my runs.

I would say yes, the size is a bit much for a quick run and go but it will hold everything you need.

Absolutely! I have used these in the past to get groceries. To which I had 2 gallons of milk, several bags of chips, various canned goods, a box of cereal, and more.

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.

Nope...I used it to hold all those plastic grocery bags everyone packs items in...Used one to line and stuff in the rest of them...Not as large as I would've like it to be.

I have filled up mine with 6 liters of soda and other times 3 gallon milk jugs. So I'm going to safely say yes. No with a heavy load I always hold underneath the bag as well.

Sure can! Once you put the milk in the cart theres a little room for more items but not a lot. Its like 10 1/2 inches deep and 12 inches long.

Hmm, not this tank bag; I would opt for a larger one, or add additional stowage for a weekend. It can hold flipflops and a cap, billfold, water bottle, toothbrush, sunscreen. Maybe a tiny tee! It is handy, but tiny.

Possibly; however, it isn't very wide. I usually can fit 4 - 5 (4oz) bottles, an ice pack and a small container of baby food in it. I use it to pack my sons food for daycare.

shopping wise it can hold quite a bit...u can fill it to the top with groceries... canned goods, milk,dry goods, etc. Weight wise I would guess 30-40 pounds or more

It holds more than 20 pounds, maybe even 30 or 40. I use mine for laundry, but I also use it for groceries. I place a cardboard file box from Office Depot on the cart (instead of a laundry basket), and fill that with groceries from my car. I understand that a plastic gallon bottle of water is about 10 pounds. I frequently load 2 bottles of water and a bag or two of groceries that include canned goods, so I probably have put more than 30 pounds on it. I have been using the trolley for one year, and it is holding up very well.

Fifty pounds would be no problem. A load of four gallons of milk weighs about 32 pounds.Myself, I found over two dozen of these 4-gallon size milk crates on the streets over the years.The crates can carry lots of heavy objects. About six crates are used to store some thin bricks that I will keep adding to the outer wall of my house--after they are cemented onto two inches of polystyrene insulation. I saw regular bricks into six or seven thin-brick slices, BTW.

It would actually be great. As stated it holds 3L of water & is actually like a backpack so you can carry a multitude of things with you along your commute.

Yes I believe it will.I have carried 2 gallons of milk,or tea on it,seemed to do fine.Just got to have a strong bike to mount it on,with a good rear axle.

It's not Longaberger sturdy, but close. I throw in 2 16 oz water bottles, keys, camera, wallet and it handles those items just fine. It would hold a small bag of groceries for you - a little picnic lunch would fit and carry well in it too.
