Subject: Anyone received their MP7,1 with wheels - what do you think of them ?

I'm patiently waiting for my wheeled MP7,1 and thought I'd reach out to those who may have received their wheeled MP7,1 for any +ive and/or -ive thoughts.

For example

  1. Are the wheels already installed or do you have to install them yourself ?
  2. Do the wheels collect dust deposits ?
  3. Do the wheels swivel easily without needing any encouragement ?
  4. Do the black 'tires' leave any marks on the flooring material ?
  5. Do the wheels lock ?
  6. Are the stock legs also in the delivery box ? (I mean to say, they should be as the stock price includes all four legs ;) )
  7. Do the wheels squeak ?
  8. Do the black 'tires' compress under the weight of the MP7,1 (leading to flat spots if MP7,1 left in one position for some time) ?
  9. Do you like the wheels ?
  10. Why did you order the MP7,1 with the wheel option ?

Thanks... :)

( i apologize for not being able to answer any of your great questions...)
am intrigued about: +ive and -ive
i have not come across this expression before.
does this mean positive tendencies and negative tendencies?
again, sorry for this stray question...

Yes
+ive means positive 👍

Doubt anyone has received yet.

B&H quoting 4-6 weeks for wheeled configs:

Apple directly had a 3-5 week delay last week compared to all other configs.
 
To my knowledge they are pre installed which is supposedly the reason you can’t get them after purchase. Ifixit shows that they could be done after.
