The problem with this style hand truck vs the RocknRoller which I love is that it only has support on ONE Side...this is a big problem when transporting gear and stabilizing so that nothing falls off....where as the R&R has two fold up sides to support your gear especially up/down stairs,....price is not an issue when it comes to securing your gear against falls breakage. For a few bucks more get the R&R multicart made for the gigging musician..

I seem to remember when R&R announced they would come out with an Aluminum model; I really was hoping for that! A Rock'n'Roller that weighed a good amount less would have been ideal! [My older model R&R still working well for me]

the other problem is the largest model is only 37 inches long - way too short for a keyboard unless you stand it on end, which is not a good thing to do.
