Product Description
The ATD tripod dolly is designed to allow rolling movement of your tripod or light stand from one location to another without lifting. It uses large rubber surfaced wheels. The 3” wheels are lockable with step function Locking. On each leg of the dolly are sliding adjustable foot locks for your tripod or stand. The dolly is collapsible and has a carry handle and a carry bag. The legs disassemble into two sections for shorter storage if desired. Each dolly leg is 16” long allowing for a maximum diameter spread of 36”. The larger rubber wheels with ball bearings do allow for relatively smooth rolling motion. However, this may not be sufficient for truly zero jitter video. Actual results will vary based on the smoothness of the ground surface and the presence of any Dirt or debris. if you are looking for ultra smooth video, possibly better options would be a mounted glider/slider on the top of the tripod or a floor mounted track system.

DISCLAIMER: The following comments take into account the price of the item (~40 USD.) This is not a high-dollar item.
The tripod-"foot" locking hardware is plastic with threaded metal inserts. While not a machined piece of engineered aluminum, they work well and seem moderately durable. When locked onto my Manfrotto 3401, the dolly became one with my sticks and remained as stable as legs alone.
The wheel locks function at the touch of a toe and unlock just as easily. Very snug when engaged.
The base is metal yet lightweight. I wouldn't stand on it, but it seems durable. There is no slop when locked in the "open" position. Again, very snug/stable. The pins that lock the two moveable base "legs" snap into place and are pulled to release. The spread is adjustable. For my particular set of sticks, it doesn't quite extend to allow full separation of my tripod legs, but this does not affect the stability.
The dolly folds nicely and carries well with the integrated handle. The bag is what you would expect: minimal, but clean and well-fitting.
OVERALL: I recommend buying this dolly immediately after you get a good tripod. (Repeat: GOOD TRIPOD) A good tripod is a necessity. A good means to move that tripod efficiently and safely comes next in my opinion. This item certainly fits the bill.
BONUS!!! I also got (unanticipated) a free mini-tripod in the box. It has little telescoping legs, 1/4" thread, and supports my mini cams. Totally cool. Almost surpasses my affection for the new dolly.
EDIT EDIT EDIT:::
I just finished a shoot this evening with the dolly. This was my first "gig" with it. Here's the scoop.
GYM FLOOR! Yes, bumps and shakes are evident on all but the SMOOTHEST of surfaces. I had a flat marble lobby with VERY tiny joints (the cracks between the pieces)to use for some venue shots, and it was pretty good. If you weren't aware that I had some roughness in the shot, you might not notice... but, now that you know, you would see the very slight bumps in the footage. So, unless you are running on a gym floor for dolly shots, there will be slight bumps (almost unnoticeable.)
HOWEVER, the dance floor shots with the dolly were magnificent. I'll try to post a link to a clip or two. But for now, take my word for it: this dolly will get you some VERY professional shots under the right conditions.
Lastly, simply for moving the cam from shot to shot, this was a time saver and total breeze. The carpet I was on was a tightly knit, Persian-style surface. The dolly moved freely and without much overall rattle. Still, not for filming, but great for getting around.
I recommend that you buy this. Period. (And I do not work for or have any affiliation with the maker.)
FINAL EDIT (this is getting long-winded....)
Here is a link to some test shots from the aforementioned shoot:
youtube(watch?v=fDIxOr2HSW8) Dolly begins at 0:11 and continues for about 20 seconds.
In the first scene, I was on the marble floor. Next you will see dance floor dolly shots.
Here's the thing, it's a dolly on wheels, so you have to understand what you're getting into. If you purchase this and expect a professional grade dolly, you will be sorely disappointed. I go to film school and have access to professional dollies, I've even worked on a feature film where the camera was always on the dolly - never on sticks, I promise you that there is no comparison. A professional dolly will go along a track so there are literally no bumps of any kind. This runs on wheels and there isn't even like a nice suspension system or anything. You just have to know what you are buying and what to expect.
I've run this on wood floor and it's incredibly smooth. I even use it on carpet sometimes, and works well. Especially on a more firm carpet. You can immediately forget about using it on tile or any type of surface that doesn't even look even/smooth.
You honestly just have to get it going so that the wheel are moving in the right direction, and the rest is up to you. You can't get upset at your own fault if it doesn't move at the right pace or you shake it. You have to learn how to move it properly, as with any type of camera equipment.
I paid just a touch over $30 for this and am very happy with it. It's one of my more recent buys that I am most excited about. I've already recommended it to a couple friends. You can get some very pretty shots. Great for B-Roll, and I plan on using it on some short films.

Das Stativ wird einfach in den Stativ-Dolly gestellt und festgeschraubt. Die meisten Stative lassen sich nicht voll ausklappen. Was ich damit meine, seht ihr auf meinen Fotos. Das ist aber sogar ein Vorteil! Somit nimmt das Stativ im aufgebauten Zustand weniger Platz ein. Die Räder machen einen guten Eindruck und laufen auch relativ ruhig. Besonders wichtig ist mir das an den Rädern auch eine Bremse vorhanden ist. Bei meinem letzten Stativ-Dolly war das nämlich nicht der Fall.
