I'm tired of making multiple trips in and out of venues. I know some of you use the
Rock and Roller Cart. Which model do you use? Is there anything you would consider better than the R & Rer?

Thanks,

Tom

I recently purchased the R10 and am very happy with it. Prior to that I was using a $69 hand truck that I bought at Home Depot. It did an OK job ( better than multiple trips to the SUV) but if it wasn't loaded just right it could tip over. Not only does the R10 handle all my equipment but it also loads easily. I also like the way it collapes to 34" makes getting into the SUV a little easier.

Tom, I use the R10. It's great. It will hold all my stuff in one trip.

I use a Clipper 90 Hand Truck: http://www.handtrucks.com/search/index.cfm?Ntt=clipper&Ntk=all

Since my setup only includes keyboard bag, keyboard stand, and two speakers, I don't need a four wheel setup. I don't use a mic stand since I have a headset, and I don't use speaker poles (except occasionally) since I keep the speakers on the floor.

You might find something at handtrucks.com that fits your needs.

Good luck!

Is it worth saving $20 to get the identical R8 - except for smaller rear wheels and 2 lbs lighter ? IOW, do the larger rear wheels make a difference ?

The R10 has saved my butt many times. Especially those backyard weddings moving gear over gravel and grass. The R10 is built like a tank and the wheels are as smooth as butta.

Probably one of the best investments I've made.

I've been using the R8 for the last few years. It's a nice compromise, a bit smaller/lighter than the R10. Wouldn't leave home without it. One trip with keyboard, gear bag, mic, KB stand, and BOTH my Barbetta and L1. You'll be happy with either one.

R-10 for the past several years. And, those larger tires do make a big difference when wheeling over rough terrain.

R8 from SameDay Music, great price. R8 was the perfect compromise, and fitted everything on the smallest lightest size.

After reading all the accolades here on the Rock N Roller Multi cart...I just ordered one for myself. I know I'll need it down the road when I play out....or I can always use it to carry cases of Wine which I make myself in the basement to the garage where its cooler..
