Are these good to drag IKEA shit outside 20 min away from your home?

Some kind of 4 wheel cart would probably be better, also something with solid wheels instead of pneumatic. If that tire pops you'll be dragging everything home and it won't be fun. I don't know how it is over there but here we can rent a truck for like $20 for a few hours. I don't imagine that hand truck is cheap either.

Ikea recently had the OMBYTE collection in stores.
The Ombyte collection was basically stuff fot storing and moving your stuff, like foldable cardboard boxes, metal wire bins, moving blankets,
and it also included a folding hand truck.
The weight capacity for the handtruck was supposedly 198lbs.
I had to move something that might have weighed 100 lbs., a couple miles with one of the Ombyte handtrucks, and it worked out fine, although you should make sure to have bungy cords and strap clamps and extras with you, because you don’t want the stuff on the hand truck shifting around.
This is the cart, although my local Ikea sold out of them quickly.

The cart you posted looks like it might be sturdier.
I suspect the Ikea cart was just a generic cart made by some Asian manufacturer that hot recolored by ikea, since a few other items in the collection were just slightly customized off the shelf goods.
One rule with hand trucks is to make sure the wheels are solid, since this is the first place they tend to break.
Also, you should knock 40-50% off the listed weight capacity to get an accurate number.

yeah but why would you, Home Depot will let you rent trucks at $20/hr and Uhaul even less. You can fit everything into even their smallest e150 and do it in a single run.

The largest civilian vehicle has 3 seats, a trunk that'll fit a couple magazines and a 0.8 litre diesel with the torque of 2 dozen hamster wheels. They could fit an entire village in 2 e150s.

Pneumatic tires are way better than solid tires for moving stuff a fairly long distance. And I've never had a problem with handcart tires besides the slow leak they all have. Used one to move a ~200+lb desk a block and a half with no problems.

Ok, anon, welcome to the crew. Go get the XXX but make sure you don't accidentally get the YYY, because it usually gives us trouble.

I have a sack truck with gel filled tyres. Even if they get a puncture they won't go flat, and they act like a form of suspension.

You should cite some peer-reviewed double blind studies on solid wheel vs. pneumatic tire dolly carts, you lazy bastard.
