I bought this trolley for my hardware. I'm not using heavyweight hardware and I always looked for a fairly small trolley for lugging my small jazz kit around. This trolley is smaller than most hardware cases I've had, and it's very well made. It looks like it's going to last many years. However, there are two downsides to it:
1. It's quite heavy, and given the fact that it's made to carry the heaviest parts of your kit, this thing is not easy to carry.
2. The handle is quite short, which makes you lean in an awkward way in order to roll it around.
Conclusion: I'm happy with this trolley and it's definitely going to stay with me for many years, but if you're looking for a lightweight, compact trolley that you can take on public transport etc, you might find this one a bit impractical.
