Bought this wheelbarrow to move gardening equipment around 2 acre yard (and did not want to spend mega bucks - and did not want to buy junk) This is a charmer: easy to assemble, center of gravity excellent,large capacity, and those tires go over any terrain with ease.

Marathon Industries 5 Cubic Feet Poly Wheelbarrow #70005
This wheel Barrow is light, easy to maneuver, stable.
It is easy to assemble.
It is shallower than I anticipated.

This two-wheeled wheelbarrow is light weight, stable, easy to manuver. It is exactly what we were looking for.

It was a bit hard to put together, and the instructions did not help much. That said, once set up, it is very nice. It moves about very easily, and is easy to load and dump. If I had a criticism of the product itself, it is that the bowl may not be duarable enough for some heavier uses, like moving patio stones or deco stone.

It is not too heavy so I can push it around. The two wheels make it stable. It is easy to keep clean. I hope the plastic tub doesn't break when I do something heavy duty but so far it's ok.

This wheelbarrow is well built and easy to assemble. It is a fair amount shallower than a typical wheelbarrow, but it is the right size for my kids to use easily. My six year old loves to push it around and was able to use it with a load of rocks without tipping it over. For adult exclusive use, an 8 or 10 cubic foot model might be a better choice.

Excellent size and stability for small jobs around the yard or garden. Easy to put together, less than 30 minutes.

Product is Chinese Made, and metal points are well constructed.
Poly-vinyl bed (bucket) is another story however,
Made of light weight material, that bends readily when attempting
to dump a load.
Only safe way to dump loads is by using a shovel......again...because
after all.....a shovel was used to load the bed (bucket)
Handles easily and can actually be guided by one hand.
Tires are large and roll easily.
About 25 minutes assembly time needed.....be sure to tighten down
nuts (again) after first usage, inasmuch as they may work loose.
Screw driver and wrench is all that you need to assemble the item.
If you're going to be doing medium-heavy work, suggest a much more
well constructed wheelbarrow.
Good luck.

Difficult to assemble (holes not machined correctly), and after struggling with the assembly, I discovered both tubes had multiple pin holes and would not hold air! Rather than take the whole thing apart and send it back (another nightmare for sure) I decided to have the tires fixed by a local auto shop. Cost to me $$$ for the repair and new tubes! Slipshod manufacture and quality control. I'm fuming!

I have always use wheelbarrow since little boy with one wheel. As I get older, it was really hard to navigate the one-wheel wheelbarrow. I searched and found this 2-wheels wheelbarrow and gave it a try for myself. It is really supreme fantastic to navigate around with 2-wheels wheelbarrow with ease with no fighting to keep it balance at all!! Whats more is that it is lightweight and easy to lift to store it!!! I really want to thank you to Amazon.com for speedy transaction and delivery!! Allan
