Its sturdily made and compact, with the wheels easy to detach and secure with an ingenious clip on axle pin. It will go in the hatch of a sea kayak but if I am touring with lots of gear, I strap it on top. I'm very happy with it. Here's two tips: 1) when you buy your trolley, get yourself a 95p spare 'axle pin' in case you lose one (embarassed emojee) and 2) it doesn't come with securing straps, so google webbingbucklesstraps or some similar phrase and get yourself something to secure your boat to the kart.
