After reading other reviews I agree the wheels are a little noisy on hard surfaces. After a few drops of oil on wheel bearings it rolls very smoothly. It is light weight and does what its suppose to do. In fully extended position it is a very stable unit even at high tripod settings. Other then the slightly noisy wheels it serves its purpose.The noise is noticeable only in a quiet setting.Do not expect it to move smoothly on surfaces that are rough or material as carpets. The product was shipped and received in excellent time.
Casters are loud on hard surfaces (concrete, tile, etc), which make it unsuitable for moving while filming video. The telescoping arms are nice and the clamps grab the tripod legs without problems. There is an option for flipping down feet while flipping the wheels out of the way for converting it into a stationary base, but I do not see how this could be achieved easily with the equipment on the tripod, so I doubt the value of this feature. While this dolly is useful for keeping your camera setup intact and rolling into position or out of the way between shots, I suspect that one with rubber wheels would be a better overall option.
