English term or phrase: Be a cinch to tote
Hello. This prase is part of a description for an ultra light Notebook. I think I understand what it means, but I can't find an equivalent in Spanish that catches the meaning (a phrase I mean). If I'm right, it refers to usufulness. But I need your help! Thanks a lot.
