Hook & Go Urban Shopper for Farmers and Super Markets Review

I got mine about 4 years ago from Canada before it was offered by USA outlets and although it pained me to pay some US$50 with S&H, it's really a back-saver shopping by foot in my hilly neighborhood.It doesn't catch your heels as the old carts did for me and after you learn to place, counter intuitively,heavier bags further out on the hook arm, pulling it around is a breeze.

At about 7 pounds. it's a bit awkward, even folded, to tote around - I'd have found a [removable?] shoulder-strap helpful.The rubber tip to the 3rd-leg that lets it stand erect wore out early and as it fits a square rather than a round [cane-type] rod, replacements are hard to find.The rubber caps covering the ends of other metal parts soon fell away.

BUT, the wheels are the MAJOR drawback. The artificial rubber "tires" simple wore to shreds after less than 30 hours "roll Time" on city sidewalks & streets.I wanted to buy a quality replacement elsewhere but although similar wheels but of top quality are widely offered, Hook&Go's axle size is very unusual so I was stuck for 6 months, 1st locating & then buying their own replacements, which are themselves now wearing out after an improved but still unacceptable 75 hours [tops] usage.

A Tip About Convenience:I do find bumping up and down the few staires I must traverse to be awkward but by grasping [with one hand at the approximate balance point] the arm itself from which the bags hang, 2 or 3 stairs are a snap.Do note, however, not to overload Hook&Go or things start bending out of shape - I try not to go much over 50 pounds.
