Yeats M7 Standard Appliance Dolly (Felt)

I have used these for my business for years and these things are a beast. Yes they are a little expensive but quality is rarely cheap. If you use a dolly for work especially appliances this is the only way to go.

I grew up using appliance dollies and carts, working in the family business, delivering and moving appliances. We had a Yeats M7 and it was a workhorse, both for inhouse use as well as lending out for others' use. Sturdy and light really matters when you depend upon this to save time and effort. We had the same cart from the '60s into the 90's when it was sold at the folk's retirement auction. After it was gone, the only carts around for appliance moving were the monstrosities made of steel. What a pain in the arse they are to use. I'd estimate the Yeats is about 1/2 the weight and even more capable.Fast forward into the '20s and I missed the occasional use of the Yeats, and detested the heavy overweight steel ones that are everywhere. So much so that I bought a new M7 just for my personal use around the house and helping friends with their moves. The cart is the exact thing that was bought in the 1960's. Proven reliable, strong and a featherweight.One review knocked the straps. They are simple and strong. They wind from both sides so the strap doesn't reel in across the load corners, potentially rubbing off paint. There are no metal clasps in the strap to bang, dent or scratch the load. The cart back is shaped to accommodate round load too, such as water heaters. The dual ratchet mechanism is simple and easy to release. I can't think of anything I would change. That's why this basic design hasn't changed for over 1/2 a century.

I've owned my appliance business for 27 years and I've had my M7 for about 20 years This dolly is such a GREAT tool. It's so lite and sturdy and so well made. The big wheel attachment is so worth the money as an add on. No dolly made that is better than the Yeats for everyday moving of appliances for repair or moving appliances in and out of the warehouse. Yes I have three of them and they are all great.

Works great for limited use. But if you're in the appliance business, and will really use this a lot, you want the WESCO one with the better strap.
