Huh?
The base plate will be taking at least half the load and probably more
in most situations. Just think through the physics for a bit! If you
are carrying something that is not rigid the situation only gets
worse!
MrRumm, you will be aware that the bottom of a washing machine does not
contain a flat area so therefore the bottom corner of a washing machine
will be resting on the backrail of the trolly along with the side of the
machine,the back edge of the footplate will stop the machine from dropping
down but plays no use in supporting the weight.
