Summary: Shoulder Dolly tips
Comment: My wife and I recently completed three moves in three days (3-bedroom and 4-bedroom houses and a 2-bedroom upstairs apartment). In the past, we hired professional movers at great expense because of the large, heavy items, but we decided to buy the Shoulder Dolly and try moving ourselves. We moved sofas, mattresses, recliners, dressers, bookcases, tables, and appliances. Nothing was dropped or damaged. The Shoulder Dolly worked flawlessly. We were still tired and sore from moving heavy boxes, but we would've been much worse without the Shoulder Dolly.
Some things that we learned:
- Buy it early and practice lifting with your moving partner. We chose a small but heavy, metal-framed recliner and lifted it off the floor. This was a huge confidence booster and we quickly determined whether we could complete the move ourselves.
- Be sure to route the strap properly through the buckle. When you lift, the weight of the item should pull on the bar causing it to clamp tighter against the strap. If your strap is slipping and pulling through, it is not routed properly through the buckle, pulling at the wrong angle (adjust length).
- Wear a shirt with a collar. Flip the collar over the shoulder straps to prevent them from cutting into your neck. Otherwise, just make sure that the straps are properly spaced on your shoulders before you lift.
- When moving fine furniture, the metal buckles can scratch and dig into the wood finish. If possible, wrap the piece in a moving blanket. If a blanket is not available and there's excess strap, wrap the excess strap around the buckle to act as padding. It would be nice if the buckles were dipped in vinyl or covered in rubber.
- When moving items up/down stairs, have the person on the lower end take up more slack to raise the item higher. The person's face will likely be against the item, but it's a small sacrifice for an easier move. The person on the higher end needs to raise the item high enough to clear the top step. You might want to place a moving blanket on the steps in case you need to set the item down and readjust the straps, but be careful not to trip on it.
- Place moving blankets at the stair landings in case you need to set the item down, reorient the item, and/or readjust the straps. Get plenty of moving blankets if you have lots of fine furniture.
When we had our new appliances delivered, we noticed that the delivery people used the Forearm Forklift and it seemed to work well. It seemed a little quicker to set up because they didn't need to untwist the harnesses and figure out how to put it on.
With puffy sofas and odd-shaped recliners, we would choose the Shoulder Dolly again over the Forearm Forklift. There were many times that we had to pivot items to clear doorways and handrails. Our arms and hands were free to guide the items and to hold onto the stair handrails if needed.

Summary: Sure Does Help!
Comment: We haven't moved too many items with the shoulder dolly yet. We purchased it shorly after our big move (yah, a little late, I know). We used it to move two small nightstands and a very large dresser upstairs after there were refurnished. Still trying to figure out how to properly used it; mainly how far from the ground and how to balance the load. Being a girl with weak arms, it sure helps to carry the load with your whole body. Items still feel heavy, but your hands and arms hurt a lot less and my legs don't feel sore at all. It can slow you down your move as you have to set up & take down the dolly for each item you are lifting, but it feels like a more natural way to move objects! Wish we had purchased it a few weeks earlier so we would have had it to move the entire house!

Summary: Almost but not quite
Comment: The concept is good, but execution is poor. It was impossible to get the straps to set properly, they kept on slipping. Ultimately we couldn't afford to have something heavy slip at the wrong time, so I returned the product.

Comment: I bought this for my son, a licensed electrician. He has used it several times, moving electrical appliances and is MORE than pleased with the results. Wherever he goes, he has the equipment to work without injury.

Summary: Great Product
Comment: This product works wonders. No more arm wrestling my heavy furniture up the stairs for when I move from place to place. I just bought a two story house and I was looking for an invention that takes away a lot of the physical work and I found it. I recommend this product for anybody who will move large or small furniture. You will not be with the disappointed with the easy to use back saving shoulder dolly.
