The Agri-Fab garden cart is easy to assemble. But, I could tell as soon as I opened the box that it was a shadow of my old one. The plywood is flimsy, thin, soft wood, and generally NOT the type that should be used in carts that will have to take shovels, pitch forks, varied loads of mulch, gravel and the like. I'm very disappointed that Agri-Fab does not produce a top quality cart and make it in the USA. I'd be willing to pay more for better quality. I wouldn't be surprised if the rubber wheels fail in the first 6 months.

I have purchased a number of Agri-Fab pieces of equipment for my lawn work and this is the first one I have ever been disappointed in --- from day 1. I assembled this yesterday and then realized --- I should have read the reviews before purchasing. I didn't do that because of the name on the product. Had I seen "Made in China" before ordering, I might not have ordered it, but a lot of items made in China are very good. This cart was designed by a team of accountants and two sight-challenged quality engineers whose only objective was CHEAP, CHEAP, CHEAP. Very cheaply made.

although the wooden material could have been a little sturdier-

the cart itself is very usefull-i use it for all garden chores as well as hauling other items such as garbage to the curb.

This cart will work fine if your under four feet tall and don't want to haul much. As usual came with missing bolts - why is this? Way to small to ever get to it's 300 pound rating. Don't waste your money - it's way smaller than the picture makes it look like.

This item is MUCH smaller than the listed dimensions.

They do not list the "box" measurements, and do not tell you that the measurements include the handle. This is TINY... if you are considering this item, buy the bigger 14 cu. ft. cart... and you should be happier.

I am delighted with my garden cart. It has made the work of hauling dirt or material so much easier. With the front piece essily removeable I can dump the material fast. It's a great addition to my garden equipment.

This gardenway knock off is of elow average quality and had apparently been fumigated or treated somehow inside the container or box, with a not very healthy odor that had to be aired out for 10 days before assembly.
Wierd green color of the plywood not apparent in photos. Look further for a better product.

I used this wagon for my part time work on mansions in Western European countries. I pick up dead rodents, corpses and leaves on estates and clean up yard debris (old graves, tree roots, and dirty ponds); these are huge acres of land so I need a sturdy, large wagon to do the work.

With this wagon, it's not built very well so it will not last if you use it often. Also, it said 300 lb weight capacity, which is wrong, I had a 238 lb worker sit on it while I pulled it around. I also pushed around 500 lbs of broken marble statues. The wagon moved sluggishly and eventually just broke apart in a few months.

If you don't have a small pony or a trained dog to pull the wagon, you'll have to do it yourself, which can get tiring if you are loading up with heavy fruits, old bundles of clothes, or sacks of rotten bird feed.

In all, there's better wagons out there.

I was in need of a yard/garden cart for hauling wood, brush, gardening stuff, etc. as the wheelbarrow doesn't work that well in all situations. I read all the reviews I could find on this cart; some pro, some con, and decided to go for it. So far so good.

The assembly wasn't bad. The instructions were fairly explanatory and straightforward, and all the hardware was included. The welds on the metal parts were decent and the paint job was good on all parts. I decided to add flat washers to each bolt on the inside (against the plywood) to ensure that they didn't dig into or pull through the wood, and to provide a tight, solid hold. It helped to have an awl handy for lining up the holes when mounting metal frame pieces to the wooden sides and bottom. Assembly time was probably an hour.

I wouldn't call this cart "heavy duty" but it certainly seems adequate for a good workout on our homestead. I have found it to be a pretty tough and versatile so far, at least for home use. I have used it for hauling firewood, brush, and yard waste, and it easily handles a hefty load. It seems pretty well balanced so it isn't too heavy on the handle when pushing/pulling loads. I am glad I didn't get the 14 cubic foot cart that I see is available; I think it would be too big (and heavy) for many projects, and more difficult to navigate in wooded areas.

Time will tell how it holds up, but the workmanship seems decent (especially considering its origin-China) and I wouldn't hesitate to get another one if needed. It sure beats pushing the wheelbarrow around. I would probably give it a 5-star but I haven't had it long enough to make that endorsement.

I ordered the Agri-Fab Farm/Yard cart and it arrived with various bits of hardware falling out of the box. The box was intact and not damaged during shipping. The bag containing the various bolts, washers, nuts and pieces was ripped open by whoever packed it. I called Agri-Fab to explain the situation and give them a list of what was needed. After 15 minutes on hold I gave the CSR the model number and part numbers for the missing parts. The CSR told me he could not help me get the various parts without a date code and it would be better for me if I just went to a hardware store and bought them instead of waiting. Very poor response.
