        I can’t imagine the handling is truly that high

        Debatable, but agree to disagree.

        but I do agree that you found the superior cart.

        Indeed

          To be fair, I’m way too big to fit into those drivers’ seats. To get a true sense of the handling, we’d need to recruit some toddlers to test drive. I get the feeling they’d agree with you.

    Then there’s my Safeway with the medium sized plastic ones that feel like they are about to fall apart when I put anything in the cart. I started just using the baskets the carts are so bad.

    needs a fifth bar for “comfort”. i had the middle one in my living room for week but had to get rid of it because it was the most cramp-inducing TV chair i’ve ever had. bottom one is probably better.

    My grocery stores have these grocery rolling baskets and they’re very convenient for small grocery trips

          Or attach a leash. Just be sure to remind your cart that it’s a good boy/girl, clean up any messes it makes, and keep it away from the chocolate in the checkout line.

          Easier to just carry the groceries in my arms, the last accessory I’d need for people to fully think of me as a serial killer would be random lenths of rope…

            Sometimes I just kick that basket around when I can’t be bothered to reach for the handle, lol

        The trouble of being tall o7

        Lots of things are just built for average people so if you are short or tall you automatically get inconvenienced

    I think speed is mistaken for acceleration in this case. The top one is definitely faster even if it has low acceleration and poor off road wheels.

      Only if they have the rear wheels fixed, like in the US. Otherwise, they’re great at handling. You can even give em a push and watch them make a pirouette before you, grab the front grill and pull them behind you.

        You seem to be ignoring Newton’s Fourth Law of Motion:

        Whenever you don’t expect it (and often when you do), one wheel of a shopping cart will be completely fucked, making the whole thing a nightmare to maneuver.

        It’s more pithy in the original Neo-Latin 🤷

          That’s even I throw the carts into the lake or push them down the hill behind the mall.

          It’s the circle of life. I hear there’s a guy who sells them back to the mall.

    what fancy ass market are you shopping where the top cart has so much handling? most of what I’ve seen has literally negative handling, they actively go another way.

    My supermarket has double decker versions of the small cart. Doubles the capacity in exchange for a slight ding to speed.
