I've been gardening for over fifty years and when old age strikes you have to change the way you do things. I only have one quarter of an acre to grow stuff but my crop of tomatoes, melons and squash are huge and harvesting and carrying them to the house is more than I can manage with a wheelbarrow. Enter this little green 4 wheeled marvel from China at an unbelievable price and everything gets easy again. It has clever front wheel steering and it turns easily into the narrowest rows. I probably haven't found all the tasks around my house yet that this little vehicle will make easier. The only precaution is that it takes some assembly and if you are not handy with a screwdriver and wrenches you better find someone who is. If you are handy, everything is well thought out and logical to assemble and most important all the parts are there and easy to identify.

Wow! Nice yard cart. Sturdy for the money. Good value. Better than expected, actually. The sides are easy to fold up and down, but turn radius is increased with lowers rails (no biggie). A nice home version of the heavy duty ones at the garden centers. Easy to put together, logical. Took me about 20-30 minutes. Bolts, washers, etc come attached to a paper card labeled by step number in the manual- nice touch! The tires do smell per other reviews, but it dissipates after a week or so.

Would certainly recommend for light to medium duty yard work.

We needed a cart to haul trash cans and recyle bins out our long driveway and this fit the bill perfectly. Great buy.

This wagon gets the job done, but I would even contemplate putting the claimed 400 lb. capacity into it. The pins that hold the sides up are flimsy and come un-done. If you fix the welded clips for them with some pliers it improves their performance. It will fold down and fit in a standard car trunk if you buy a 3/16" diameter 2.5" D-pin or some clevis pin (with cotter pin) to hold the handle to the front axel. Wheels/tires are good and a bit smallish. My wife sewed a pillow for it and the kids like to ride around in it. It is pretty expensive for what it is in my opinion. One can probably make one out of wood that is nicer. Crudely made in China.

I purchased this to haul boxes of books. I broke a "heavy duty" steel childrens type wagon last year and needed a replacement. This purchase was worth every penny. It held several hundred pounds of books (at a local publishers book sale) with ease. Caution - dont make sharp turns. I did lose one load, but it only happened once. My grand kids love using it around the yard to haul things also. It was easy to put together. It is made of quality steel and I expect many happy years of use.

I purchased this item to move garden stone around the property. However, the uses are endless: moving groceries into the house, hauling garden waste and firewood.
When it arrived it was easy to put together.
This cart is sturdy and easily moves over different terrain.

I got this cart for my mom for gardening but as soon as we put it together it just made a horrible noise when you pulled it (even after WD40) and it was a bit wobbly. Don't know if I would recommend this or not, sorry.

After studying comparable carts I thought this was too good to be true. It wasn't. It is everything that it says and more. Strong sturdy construction; great instructions for assemblage. My wife and I have been gandening 3/4 ac for 30 years. Could have used this 30 years ago but definitely now that age is creeping up on us. Move garden containers, mulches, rocks, (with two toro leaf bucketsToro 29210 43-Gallon Gardening Spring Bucket) move 86 gal. of leaves to the compost pile at one time. Pulls easily over garden paths. A real asset to the garden shed. We like it so much that we got them for Christmas presents for our three children who have also turned into gardeners. A real best buy.

This is a good, solid utility cart. That said, it is the worst smelling cart maybe in the whole wide world. While this wagon was a mere package at my front door, it wreaked. I opened it to find the tires were the offending source. The smell is worse than awful. When assembled (I had someone else assemble it), I put the wagon in the back yard where I hoped time would dilute the odor. My poor German shepherd dogs avoided that area of the yard. Now that a few weeks have gone by, the odor has diminished significantly and I can better enjoy the wagon's utility.

This is the second one of these carts I've bought, and it seems less sturdy and more cheaply made than the same model I bought 9 months ago.
