For someone who has one of theses, would it work for transporting groceries up steps? Thanks!

I think it would. It has big wheels and the groceries would have to be packed evenly. One thing for sure, it would be easier than hauling them up without the cart. It is very sturdy...

Not easily, but it could be done. I have a ramp with a bit of a lip to scale to bring my groceries into the house. I leverage my foot against the back wheel, and lean it back a bit to get it over the lip. I guess it would all depend on the depth of your steps.

I bought this especially to go up 9 steps to my 2nd floor condo. the back wheels are big enough to easily go up the stairs.

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.

I don't see why not. It is large, though. This means it has a lot of capacity but might be a little awkward going up and down stairs especially if heavy. The only (minor) issue I have with it is that the front wheels are not pivoted, which means that it does not turn smoothly.

Yes, I use it to transport groceries from my car to my condo which is quite a distance. It can be pulled up stairs if done gently as long as it is not filled to the top meaning exceeding weight it can hold.

Probably, But it would require some modification to the platform that you would set your grocery bags on. I am not very handy so probably wouldn't attempt it. I am sure a reasonably handy person could do it.

Maybe. I thought I would use it to pull groceries into my apartment building, but I use a walker and found it awkward to push the walker with one hand while pulling the cart. Suggest borrowing a cart first and experimenting with the cane and cart. Putting the laundry in a dufflle might be less awkward.

you'll be able to get it up the stairs no problem. make sure you have it next to your bed frame, when you cut the packaging it's going to expand quickly

I would guess no unless the person pushing was very strong. I use it to go the clinic (elevators) or a store if no carts are available. Reasonably light and folds compact but because all wheel are same size difficult to manage stairs or curb.

I've only used the cord that closes the top of the fabric basket..I like the cart but it doesn't really match my stairs so it is quite noisey as it "bounces" up the stairs. But it does carry 3 loads of groceries, it takes some strength to pull it but it's better than carrying the purchases up the stairs in 3 trips.

We did not encounter steps but I think it would as long as you were not loaded too heavy. I also think the effort to pull it up steps, if heavy, would be substantial.

I don't know how much weigh it can carry but I can load an entire month's groceries in it and do not have a problem with it holding. It has velcro straps to hold it to the cart. You should not have a problem loading anything in it.

To be honest, its not too bad with the steps but I will advise you to be cautious when taking it up the steps because I do not trust the shopping cart's wheels too much. I will say if you are using your cart for groceries, just regulate the weight of the foods that you buy within the cart so it weighs on both wheels instead of one side.

This is probably overkill for groceries. I would consider one of those basket carts, since weight isn't really much of a consideration. This is more heavy duty and can hold a lot of weight. Its an awesome cart I totally recommend it, but more for moving amps and equipment into clubs than groceries down a hallway. Though it does condense nicely, it still takes up a lot of space, especially if moving lighter items is your only need.

Yes. For me, I'll say it depends on your own strength and balance rather than the strength of the cart/wheels. I have found much easier to carefully wheel it down steps. The problem is how heavy the load is and being careful you don't fall down. The great thing is, the liner has heavy duty handles, so if you are able, you can lift a full cart up or down a few steps.

Sure. It'll hold them - volume wise. I don't know how heavy all those groceries could weigh, but the bottom is plastic and I can't say how well it''s attached to the sides. It's durable, but I only use it for yard debris, cuttings, trimmings, leaves, etc - nothing too heavy. Soda, water bottles, a lot of canned goods could get heavy. Using a hand truck would help as long as the weight was distributed along a portion of the bottom and the side that rests along the handle uprights. You'd have to hold onto it really tight to keep it steady on the small base of a hand truck. Hope this helps.

I use it to haul dog crates and use bungee cords so they don't fall off. It is very thin on the bottom. You might have to slightly tip the front up to get it started but I think it would work.

It can definitely handle heavy items. I have put a jug of bleach and heavy cleaning items in the bottom.. and heavy groceries on the top shelf at the same time. And, it can easily hold up to four paper bags / or reuseable bags without stuffing it in there. I found that I could tote around the heavy items without breaking my back or the cart rolling away from me. The only down side... if you are getting on a bus with heavy items in cart.

Not really, it might be too big and heavy when full to carry up steps/stairs. I would get a smaller cart. Try a different cart made for stairs.

I have one in my car trunk also in my 2 SUVs. Yes they hold grocery bags and keep them from tipping over! Love ours!!

I doubt it. The wheels are small and although it looks sturdy it's not a"step walker ". I purchased it to improve on it and use it as a tackle box hauler.
