This is actually very cool. The wheels seem too small for it to work in the real world. We tried building a similar concept a few years ago, smaller overall, with 3 bigger wheels, mostly to bring groceries from the town, didn't work very well, road quality was too poor and it got stuck a lot. Too heavy. had to sell it.
