Shopping trolley

This is a collapsible trolley that gives users flexibility and ease of use in a wide variety of settings.
When collapsed, the trolley size can be carried around conveniently in a separate carry-bag. When unfolded, the adjustable height option provides greater comfort in use for a wide group of people, regardless of their height. Shock absorbing ”tweel-wheels” provide a smooth ride on uneven surfaces and offer considerable ease when descending kerbs or steps/stairs. The size of the wheels also facilitates both climbing and descending with a fully laden trolley. As the handle can be gripped with both hands, it makes descents more secure. The possibility of tilting the handle up to 45° helps to move more weight on wheels and thus reduce the weight shift.

The trolley comes with a removable bag which makes it possible to use the frame for transporting larger items, such as crates, or cases for example. The bag’s roll-up closing system is similar to the ones used on dry-bags for hiking. In addition to its simplicity and low-tech/fail-proofness, it is known to be weather/water tight. The pleated structure allows a certain amount of expansion when over-filled, while in the half-filled, contracted state the pleats function as a support-system and prevent the bag from losing its shape/appearance completely.
