I have the same dolly as Bailey'sMom. I use it to move my boat and trailer around at camp, over ground that is not completely flat, and which is "paved" with crusher dust. It works well, and would work even better on nice flat concrete.

It has two annoyances.

First, whenever I go to use it, the tires are flat. All of these small tubeless pneumatic tires will hold air for about a week, then have to be reinflated. Since I have a compressor, this is not a big deal.

Second, if I want to make a really sharp turn, I pull the dolly's handle to the side until it is almost perpendicular to the length of the trailer. But if I move it too far to the side, the tire gets jammed under the trailer A-frame.

This is true. Thankfully I have a small air compressor that my dad got me for Christmas one year because he knew I would love it. Little did I know how right he was. I use it religiously to fill my trailer and car tires.
