PRODUCT DETAILS
Andersen Scala Shopper — 360° Steg 9 Bag
Picking up the weekly shop without driving works — when the trolley does the heavy lifting. The Scala Shopper is Andersen's lightest two-wheel pull-along, paired here with the 360° Steg 9 — designed for compact, manoeuvrable shopping trips on smooth pavement and indoor floors. At just 1.8 kg empty it's the easiest Andersen to carry up steps or fold into a car boot, and the Bike n Easy attachment turns it into a bike trailer when you need it.

Compatibility
The Scala is built primarily as a two-wheel pull-along shopper, with bike-towing as a secondary mode via Andersen Bike n Easy. Best for: regular pavement shopping, indoor markets, short walking distances. The small 15 cm wheels are fine on smooth surfaces but will struggle on rough ground, gravel, or kerbs above 10 cm. For heavier terrain the Royal or Tura are better choices.
Attaching to a bicycle
This Shopper is compatible with Andersen's Bike n Easy attachment system, which lets you switch between pulling on foot and towing behind a bicycle in a few seconds.
Two components are needed: an adaptor on the Shopper (this frame takes the Type 1 Adaptor) and a coupling unit on the bicycle. The bike-side coupling depends on your bicycle's geometry:
Pull Easy — bikes with a rear luggage carrier
Easy Snap — alternative for rear-carrier bikes
Big Easy — bikes without a rear rack (mounts to seat strut)
The full breakdown with fitting guides and videos is on the Andersen Bike n Easy attachment guide.
Fitting & installation
The Andersen frame arrives fully assembled. The bag clicks onto the frame using the HängFix system (on Royal, Royal Plus, and Unus frames) or attaches via integrated straps (on Scala, Komfort, and Tura). Both are tool-free.
For bicycle attachment, see Compatibility above and the Andersen Bike n Easy guide for the full fitting walk-through, including PDFs and video tutorials per coupling. The Scala Shopper user manual is available to download on this page.

FAQs
Why are the Steg 5 and Steg 9 both shown without a colour selection?
How much can the Scala Shopper carry?
40 kg chassis load capacity. In practice that's a full weekly shop for two adults — around 30 kg of groceries plus a couple of heavier items like wine or laundry detergent.
Is the Scala Shopper suitable for elderly users or people with mobility concerns?
Yes. The Scala Shopper is a practical and reassuring choice for elderly users, for anyone who wants extra comfort, stability and ease of use when shopping or running errands. Its lightweight frame, comfortable flat handle and pavement-friendly 15 cm wheels make it easy to pull, steer and manage in everyday situations, without feeling bulky or difficult to control. It is ideal for users who may have reduced strength, limited mobility or simply prefer a lighter, more manageable shopping trolley. For longer walks where a built-in rest option would be helpful, the Andersen Komfort Shopper with integrated seat may be the better alternative.
Hitch A Bike Expert Note
The Steg 9's pocket layout is built around traditional supermarket packing — one section for cold items, one for produce, one for cupboard goods. Works perfectly if that matches how you shop. If you tend to shop from independent shops where items arrive in different shapes and sizes, the simpler Steg 5 is more flexible.
