Harpo™ Harp Cart

Item Price: $895.00

Shipping: Standard: $35.00; 2-Day: Available; 1-Day: Available

The Harp Connection's Harpo™ Harp Cart

Certainly the créme de la créme of harp carts, this marvel of German engineering is now available to the United States. Known around the world as the Harpo Harp Trolley, this amazing cart is fabricated from aircraft-grade aluminum, collapses for storage and even has quick-release removable wheels!

The fold-down tray is rubber coated, and two quick-release straps are provided to securely hold your harp for stairs or when it's windy. Please note that the standard Lyon & Healy concert grand base cover is a little too wide for this cart, so we recommend our Harp Base Cozy to protect the feet and base of your harp when using this cart. The Lyon and Healy medium base cover will fit onto the shelf of this cart, as will any Salvi base cover (particularly if the front part of the cover is being used and not the back portion). Because of the design of the Harpo straps that secure the harp, a Lyon and Healy concert grand base cover CAN be finagled into fitting on this cart. Please feel free to call or email us here at the store with any questions or concerns.

The medium-pressure bicycle-style wheels will need periodic inflation, but they provide the best possible ride for your instrument.

  • 43" High (extended)
  • 26" High (collapsed)
  • 22" Wide
  • 12" Deep
  • 14 Lbs.
