It tells me that the wheels are eight inches and that the reason it is so maneuverable is that the front wheel swivels.

Duh. I've used it nearly three years and didn't realize that wheel swiveled!

I can carry my laptop, thermos of coffee and other necessities in the pouch, and I slip the straps of my handbag over the hand grips.

The $70 price is way less than a trip to the emergency room should I fall down.
