Dr. Timothy Jones –
As far as it goes, and used sensibly, this cart is okay for the money. The narrow wheel base is good for going through, say, a narrow gate; but not so good for sideways stability. Without independent suspension, or any suspension really, the wheels easily lift and loads of any weight – or shifting loads – will tumble the cart over. I use it for moving sections of cut tree trunks around and such like, for which it is fine, but only on level ground. Any sign of a tilt, or even a root sticking up, and the thing is over. Pulling loads uphill, the front wheels lift: again, due to no suspension. So, just use within its limits or fork out for a proper one.

This is an excellent trolly for use at festivals. Many regulars will know the dreaded walk of shame to and back to your vehicles, unless of course you have a live in vehicle (Bonus). It is big enough to take all your drink as well as most of your camping gear. A few bungee straps over the top are essential to keep things in if you are loading up high. The inflatable wheels make it easy to manourver even in muddy conditions. The only reason that I did not give this 5 stars is because the lining was not really big enough for the cage. You could only attach it to the sides and one end not the other end as it was just to small. If this lining was big enough for the cage easily 5 stars. If you are buying this for a festival or to carry things long distance over uneven ground. Go for this with the inflatable wheels not the others with hard wheels.

Almost exactly 6 years ago to the day, I bought one of the standard and very common green, mesh, 3ft garden carts for £113.34. Nowadays, you see them everywhere, and you can buy one for £50. I had no convenient space for it under cover, so it has stood outside in all weathers ever since, quietly rusting away – but it’s still serviceable, and I wouldn’t hesitate to pay the current price for one in return for 6yrs of life – a mere £8 a year. Now, however, a tyre has split, and since it was always a bit too small, I decided to upgrade rather than repair.I find this model, at £95 incl. delivery, to be a far cry from its predecessor, and like other reviewers, I find the sturdiness of the components impressive. It was also easier to assemble; the instructions suggest it’s a two person job, but this arthritic 86-yr-old managed it easily in about half an hour, albeit using the proper tools for the job, rather than the single adjustable spanner they recommend (and you’ll need two).I was less impressed with the press-stud-fitted plastic fabric lining. Press studs are a never an attachment of choice, and I think an easier, more reliable and potentially longer-lasting method could have been found. Secondly, the lining is waterproof, so if the trailer is left in the rain with the liner attached, it will fill with water. It would have been better to have used a free-draining fabric. Just make some holes, I guess…The only potential weak point in terms of rust and decay will be the mesh; but the old one, in a slightly smaller gauge, has stood up surprisingly well after 6 years of outdoor exposure, including being buried in snow several times, so I don’t regard it as a problem..I’m disappointed to see that at the time of review it’s listed as unavailable; I hope this is soon remedied, for with a large garden, this is easily worth the extra cash, and promises to last a good deal longer than its predecessor; perhaps a lot longer than me…
Mr M –
I bought this product on the basis that it was supposedly of a higher quality than some of the cheaper models available. Having had a different manufacturer product before, I have seen how they last and can be used in general.This one is stronger than some in the axle and support brackets, but no better built overall and just as flimsy on the sides.Product Description:Claims to be able to carry 600 Kg – the product documentation actually states 500 Kg. Looking at the base frame it is more substantial than some, but the tyres and side frames would not support that weight. The base mesh is reasonably solid so I would guess a few hundred kilos is easily possible. After than you are unlikely to be able to move it.Build Quality:Deeply flawed. The side lugs that take the moveable clips were malformed – bent out of alignment and too small to accept the locking mechanism. Manufacturing fault. To fix takes power tools, files, paint and several hours. Really should have sent it back but not work the hassle.The side mesh is very flimsy and would not support any weight – you have to put all the weight on the base mesh frame.The wheels are cheap and not good bearings. They simply slide onto a metal axle and are secured by a split pin. They fit is very loose so they wooble a little in movement.The handle bar is also very poorly designed – the fitment to the frame is plastic and has no moving parts – hence it will wear as you move the handle. Easily a weak point when pulling the alleged 600 Kg capacity.The tyres are basic and have an inner tube. There is no indication in the manual of the correct pressures for these but they arrived deflated so make sure you have a pump handy. There is also no seal to the wheel where the valve sits so dirt will get into the inner area sooner or later.Some of the welds are poor and have exposed inner areas that will allow dirt and water to the interior (unpainted) sections of metal. Likely to rust fast if left outside (garden shed storage possibly best but check size – this is a big trolley).Delivery:Cheapest possible courier – with all the expected delays, false promises and failed deliveries. At least the sellers put that right but it took days and several emails to convince them that it had not gone wrong.Manual:Mostly okay and well written – missing information like do not overtighten on this bolt or that so that the parts can move freely.Missing the bolt/nut sizes so you have to try to find the correct socket/spanner set if you are not using adjustable spanners.Putting it Together:Mostly easy if you know do not have to fix it (see Build notes).You need 4 sizes of spanner (or at least 2 adjustable spanners). Not too tight on space so possible to use medium size socket sets but one nut is very large and was bigger than my workshop tools – had to use a car socket set. You need 2 spanners or sockets to fit some parts as the bolt and nut both need one.Some strength required to turn some of the anti-slip nuts.Extras:Comes with an inner liner that is fairly light weight – looks like it will not last long with anything sharp. The mounting is easy with pop stud fixtures.No spares for anything else. One of the locking handle rubbers is already cracking and coming off (and that is just during assembly).Overall:As expected and a little more robust than some. Quite large (so check measurements carefully if you have narrow paths).Poorly made overall so not expecting it to last for years.
Chris Spenceley –
Amazing value compared to all the other smaller and inferior offerings on the web.Very stable as long as most weight is over the rear wheels or the load is even, it can tip if the load is all over the front and you swivel the wheels to either side.As mentioned by another, the top part of the handle has the hole drilled 90 degrees out, so the handle loop ends up vertical, not as in the illustration. still use-able but feels odd.The wheels are very strong, wide and resilient so traveling over a lawn with a load is quite easy.The only problem I had was the nuts and bolts were loose in the box and one of the 4 tiny split pins that secure the wheels was missing, I rooted out a tiny nut and bolt which fixed that and in fact is a much better solution than the rather flimsy split pins. The wheels have bearings but just slide onto the axle shafts so spin freely.I have a 37 liter battery operated sprayer and 100 amp/hr battery strapped to it at the moment, it copes easily with that. I wouldn’t like to try moving it with 500kg though even on solid ground, no brakes!The sides are pretty flimsy but adequate, replacing the spring pins on the hinges with proper bolts would make a big improvement I don’t intend to use them so no problem for me, Apart from the sprayer I will use it to haul large rocks weighing up to 100kg, It needs a sheet of Ply attached to the bed as the wire mesh would soon be damaged.

The instructions that came were wrong. Firstly, the bits and pieces (bolts etc) that came bore little resemblance to what the instruction booklet said was supposed to be present. However, I carried on regardless and all the bits needed were there.Secondly, it where it shows you how to place the bolts for the front axle is upside-down. Easily fixed, but frustrating.Thirdly, it says you only need a spanner to assemble. With the nylon nuts, unless you’re super strong, you will need a socket set and something to hold onto the bolt as you screw the nut on.A brake would be a welcome addition on slopes.That said, it’s a stonking little cart which has already been super useful in the garden and giving the granddaughter rides .
Ben Platt –
So this has had some pretty heavy use, moving stone blocks down woodland paths, which I suspect is at the top end of most people’s usage, so I’ll bear that in mind.The base is strong enough to carry pretty heavy loads. The wheel bearings all failed within about a month, and are a random Chinese size so not replaceable by normal means. I fitted cartridge bearings by machining down the axles to fit, and they’ve worked great.The sides are flimsy, and will buckle/bend under any kind of reasonable weight. The fasteners to hold the sides to each other pop undone by themselves without much effort. The attachment points have broken on a couple of the sides.Steering is good, but the design of the axle is utterly stupid!!! All the load is taken by one weld on the frame, this failed pretty quickly… For most people it’d now be scrap, but I rewelded it with some braces and it’s fine now.In summary, it’s probably the toughest of all these trailer things on Amazon, but it certainly won’t move 600kg without breaking!! So for use on flat tarmac, with not heavy loads it’s good, anything else it’s rubbish without considerable modification…

Until my wife bought this I had no idea how useful it was.It was fairly difficult to assemble so i left her to it and she seemed to manage OK. A couple of times she needed to shout me through to help her hold something in place but other than that she didn’t bother me too much.Once we got it up and running I wondered if we’d ever use it but I can honestly say it’s great if you have a big garden. We’ve had tree wood, logs, paving slabs, cement -all kinds of stuff in it and been able to move things around much more easily.It’s highly manoeuvrable, robust and sturdy.I would highly recommend, especially for those doing patios and with wood burners etc.
MCT –
Design of trailor is really good… Quality of some components is very questionable.Some key components missing… Others not correctly sized to facilitate assembly.I needed to raid my own stocks of nuts 7bolts to find compatible bolts.Given the quality of manufacture and lack of attention to the items provided in the parts bags, I think it reasonable to assume that the product has come from China. The use of the name VonHaus is (I suspect) a ploy to make customers believe that this has been produced by German or European Manufacturers.A real shame… Giving them the benefit of the doubt, this could have been a Friday afternoon bitser ! Despite the assembly challenges caused by mismatched components, this is actually a really good garden trailer.Would I buy again. Probably… So why am I whinging ! 🙂
C. Taylor –
THe cart builds out as described and pictured. It appears to be quite sturdy if a bit loose joined in its build. It is extremely useful. I mean I use it for much more than I had thought I would and my husband nicks it to use too, SO< I am glad I bought it and I would recommend it BUT_ between the lack of quality control and the poor instructions, you will suffer when building it. Stupid small tings like not including enough of the right size washers. Poor cotter pin design/supply. In fact eh wheel axles were not manufactured to an exacting enough standard which meant one would not accommodate the wheel. We were lucky to have a workshop and the tools to do a work around. But this is a rank amateur manufacturing/quality control mistake. The company needs to up its game.
Trevor Nicholson –
This is the third cart of this type that I have bought in the last 20 years and compared to the previous ones it is rubbish. The first thing that I noticed when I opened the box was that the axles appeared to be more robust than the previous ones, which was good, but then I saw that the Ackerman steering had been replaced by a cheaper pivot system. I then started to assemble it and found that the front axle would not fit on to the pivot; a little investigation showed that the holes in the axle did not line up. Fortunately I have a drill bit of the right diameter and I was able to line up the holes. Then I found that the thread cut into the pivot is not long enough to allow me to tighten the nut down on to the axle sufficiently to prevent too much play in the steering; I overcame this by putting washers, from my own stores, under and over the axle to enable the nut to grip. Next I tried to connect the handle tube to the handle bracket using the bolt provided. This bolt has a screwdriver slot in the head and it is provided with a Nyloc nut at the threaded end. It is very difficult to tighten a Nyloc nut If you are trying to to hold the bolt with a screwdriver in a slot, so I found a suitable hexagonal bolt in my stores and used that instead. Then I tried to attach the handle to the other end of the tube. Two positions are available, one with the handle vertical and the other with it horizontal. I tried horizontal and discovered that the holes in the handle did not line up with the holes in the tube because of excess weld in the socket in the handle that the tube is suppose to go into. So I tried the vertical option only to find that the holes in the tube were too small for the bolt!! On we go to the wheels. In earlier versions of this cart the wheels are secured to sub-axles with Nyloc nuts; in this version they are secured by split pins. Finally, the sides. These are attached to the base by R-pins which pass through brackets on the base and the sides. The internal diameters of most of the holes in the brackets are too big for the pins and the sides are very loose. The instruction book says that you need one adjustable spanner and two people to assemble this cart, you really need one person and a good socket set. I have been in engineering for over 60 years and this must be one of the worst examples of a manufactured product that I have ever seen. Please refund my purchase money and make arrangements to collect this heap of junk.Trevor Nicholson
J H J Parker –
“Simple assembly required – easy-to-follow instructions included”. Well, that might be true if the quality control was any good. The front axle had such poor welding and grinding that several large burrs remained within the hole which fits over the threaded bolt on underside of the frame at the front of the cart. I spent a long time filing off the burrs and even then the hole is far too tight over the threaded bolt which necessitated using a hammer to get the axle down onto the frame. It will still not go all the way. The thread on the top of the bolt was very poorly cut and had been bashed in transit so I had to recut the first turn of the thread by hand to get the nut to achieve even three turns of purchase. Since this is the most important joint on the cart and the only one that HAS to be spot on, I’m not over-impressed. Having taken an hour to assemble, instead of the 15 minutes it should take we’ll see how long that badly manufacturer joint lasts. If the buyer has to finish the manufacturing during assembly this cart should be cheaper.

Rickety. Construction. Poor instruction manual. Liner with same consistency as paper.First load of soil in the trolley. Shovelling it out rips the liner so easy. It is a garbage productBuy something else
V F. –
We use this wagon to transport wood to our indoor fire. Before, we used flimsy trugs (which would break quickly) or just carried wood in by the armload- this wagon makes it soooo much easier- we stack it high and bring in several hundred kilos at once. The liner means there are no messy bits of bark or sticky sap all over the floor. It’s been brilliant. The only slight criticism is the poppers on the liner aren’t very strong so they need reattaching after most wood runs- only takes a few seconds though. We found it pretty straight forward to assemble- my 14 yr old son managed it on his own. For its size, it’s easy to manoeuvre and looks good enough to keep indoors. So far, a great investment.
Kim Jones –
I bought this to replace a similar cart that had fallen apart after four years of service. The new one is in a different league when it comes to sturdiness – much more robust than the last one. I just hope it lives up to its promise.It wasn’t too tricky to put together. However, it was disappointing to find that the plastic bag containing all the small parts had broken open and it took some time to track down all the pieces. Even then there were some washers missing which I managed to replace.
Anthony F. –
The black lining did not arrive with the order and they couldn’t provide one. They did however refund me £16 for the inconvenience within the same week and customer service was good. I like the truck, it was very easy to assemble with very good instructions. The locking nut for the steering is 23 mm which was beyond my spanner range but I manged it with mould grips.Its load capacity was the key factor in purchasing though I haven’t tested this yet. It’s not German engineering at its best; some of the gate hinge eyelets did not line up. Apart from that it does the job and I’m happy overall with the purchase.
Male –
I bought one of these and its ok for light work. It says it will take a 600kg load!, never in a million years, don’t even kid yourself at half that weight. I was pulling with just over 100kg loads and front tyre split beyond repair. All these type of trolleys are featherweights talking themselves up to heavyweights and we all know what happens there. You can carry more weight in a normal council bin.
Graeme C –
Update on initial review.Now received a complete cart and was asked to remove the parts I needed. Did so and remaining cart now on its way back to seller. Hope this is the end of it. Ultimately, good customer service and a happy buyer.Bought in February and had light use on grass for a few weeks. Then noticed one tyre was flat. Tried re-inflating but valve kept letting air out so assumed faulty valve.Contacted seller who offered to send complete wheel unit out and I could remove what I needed and send the rest back. Seemed an odd offer but would resolve the fault.Now received email backtracking on this and advising item not covered due to wear and tear etc. In my opinion a faulty item.Poor response.
Amazon Customer –
Good sturdy design let down by poor build quality control. Would have been five stars but for: the handle clip-on box which would not fit securely without some wooden shims to stop it wobbling 40 degrees left-right (one star), base frame welding seams not ground down so side flaps would not bed down to the chassis evenly (half star), and after one night out in the rain (garden trolley?) signs of rust washing out of the side flaps mesh welding area so obviously spray painted and not dipped to ensure internal structure also rust protected (half star). Even the front VonHaus badge was stuck on clumsily to demonstrate lack of post-build quality checking. The leaf collection liner is a nice touch but won’t last five minutes of heavy use so I have added a wooden deck and sides for my use with a garden shovel.But, it is sturdy for the price and does what it says on the box so we shall see how it copes with heavy use and damp English rusting weather.

VonHaus 600KG Mesh Garden Cart with Lining – Heavy Duty 4 Wheeled DIY Trailer Cart
We have had this cart for 3 weeks and a similar lighter smaller version from another supplier for 2 years. The lighter one now is being used daily to carry up to 6 x 10 lt cans of water at a time to water a new orchard. It has been heavily used, initially as the base for a childrens Jalopy with up to 5 kids 6-12 year olds jumping on and off. So we have bought this one to supply our allotment situated about 600m from the house. It is much much easier than a wheel barrow ane can carry hugely more weight. Getting up a slope with heavy load is easy with a second person pushing.Easy to assemble and very robustly built.
TJ –
It looks and does what it says on the tin! It’s sleek, easy to assemble and thee quality is very good. I use it when gardening and moving heavy pots or compost around. I am also able to move my seed trays and seedlings about without fear of tipping them over! My husband uses it to transport grass cuttings and his tools around. We both highly recommend it. It may be pricey butt well worth it.

Good price for a sturdy little beast. I got it to shift some large 200kg+ rocks around the garden [big garden]. The sides all drop/remove to leave a flat bed truck for low level wide load shifting. Hitches up to my Honda lawn tractor to be pulled around. Narrow gauge so fits through a door which was unexpected bonus. No problems whatsoever with load shifting and has been borrowed to shift concrete slabs and building blacks as well as bagged cement; pretty good all rounder. Top tip; when assembling the steering yoke check the bolt lengths. Mine were overlong and if assembled as per the directions fouled the steering. Just put them through with the nuts at the bottom and it works fine. As a bonus the grand children love it and it is now the ride of choice on all occasions.
Roz Clarkson –
Bought this to move a 3 bedroom house. Oh my! The job would have been hell with out it! This was a fantastic workhorse for the job of moving plant pots, furniture and white goods on and off the van. Great manoeuvrability. Durability and build is good but not heavy duty. It is certainly much more capable than just a garden trolley. Great product, great price. Another fantastic product from Avon Haus!
J-Law –
If you need a multi-purpose garden cart then buy this, it’s brilliant! It’s very sturdy, easy to move about the garden, copes well with rough terrain and paddocks, and is one of our favourite garden purchases so far. We’ve used it for all sorts of things from collecting wood for the fire to shifting weeds and scrub from the garden to the compost heap. Very useful and lots of fun, even the grandchildren love playing with it.
Mr. Colin F. Crow –
This is my third cart of this sort and without doubt this one is in a different class! My trolley is left out in all weather so will naturally rust but the last one fell to pieces so quickly that I decided to seek out a more robust alternative.I don’t think the description adequately describes the differences between this trolley and the cheap alternatives. All of the steel used for construction is a substantially heavier grade and the coatings look to be much thicker. The design of the chassis is radically different giving a much wider stance and therefor greater stability along with a much tighter turning circle as the front wheels/axle turn through more than 180 degrees allowing a full rotation in the length of the cart. Highly recommended!
steve carpenter –
Well I bought this to take the Granddaughters around the Dorset Steam fair. I thought they would only use it when they got tired, wrong, they spent the day in it, eating and sleeping while Grandad pulled them for miles.Solid and good construction and will last for years. It fitted in my estate car with the seats down. Easy to put together and I liked the lining, albeit the popper are a little hard to press together. .It would be fantastic if VouHaus had the option of a brake as its difficult to slow it down when going down hillYou only get what you pay for and I’m glad that I spent a little extra.
Amazon Customer –
Mostly for shifting logs, but carting tools and stuff around as well. I fixed a sheet of ply to base and sides as I don’t think the metal mesh looks robust enough to cope with bashing from logs.The instructions are ok until you get the last bit about fixing the pull handle, then there is nothing. It’s not hard though. I think one reviewer said something about the handle being vertical instead of horizontal like the picture. There is actually a choice of holes to use when fixing the main handle to the trolley, set at 90deg to each other. You can choose to have the handle vertical or horizontal. This detail is not mentioned in the instructions.Overall – good value – thank you!
Oliver Crane –
Just so good. Sturdy, great capacity and easy to control.
john c –
Didn’t expect great quality at this price and I was right not to. First problem the mesh base was not attached on one side. Poor welding had burned through the mesh. Fixed this with 2 aluminium strips which I pop riveted on the underside.Second problem was one of the 4 stub axles was too short to mount the wheel and fix with the washer and split pin. The hole for the pin was not visible out of the wheel. Fixed this by grinding about 5mm off the 2 wheel stops on the axle behind the wheel.Cart is now assembled and can be used.Would not recommend this product to anyone without access to a workshop and some basic engineering skills.
Excalibur 365 –
Incorrect instructions regarding the front steering assembly bolts. Also 4 large washers provided but 5 needed as you read on in the assembly. Would have given it 5 stars otherwise
LonelyGoatherd –
Firstly, it was delivered very quickly/Having used the cart for 5 weeks, I am very pleased with it. We have a lot of clearing to do in our large garden and the size of the body reduces the number of journeys up and down. I agree with another reviewer that the steering means that turning the front axle through 90 degrees for a tight turn makes it unstable with a large load. Otherwise, I have temporarily fitted ply extensions to the sides to allow larger quantities of cuttings to be carried. However I find the idea of moving 4-500 Kg of stuff unbelievable unless done on a dead level, hard surface.
Forty Two –
Purchased to replace a similar trolley that had collapsed after many years of use and abuse.If you’re searching for trolleys like this, pay close attention to the front steering axle and the position of the wheels under the trolley.This front axle on this trolley is able to turn a full 180 degrees, so it’s extremely manoeuvrable. The wheels are also placed wider than on similar trolleys which helps no end with stability.These trolleys are made from light metal and it will rust if you leave it out in the rain. They all rust if left out in the rain.
Mr L Hackett & Shenagh Hackett –
Bits have broken off after a few months, not as heavy duty as I had hoped. Nice trolley but a little frail for the name heavy duty
Amazon Customer –
When I assembled it, one of the hinges was hanging off. Had it have been checked it would have been noticed.I could have sent it back but that’s more aggro.The design is good but the execution is cheap, weak and really not up to taskNow after 3 repairs of the side hinges which look like they have been welded by a five year old ( yes I have taught my 6 year old girl to weld better than that),The main steering hinge bolt has pulled through the main fixing.Do not waste your time and money on this disappointment on wheels
Amazon Customer –
No inner liner and no assembly instructions. Decent cart but worry that inner tubes with rubber valves will puncture as they rub on the wheel rim.
RLFielding –
Very robust, solid trolley. Much bigger than you imagine. Pulled it across muddy fields to pick up 3 large tree trunks from the river and my granddaughter decided to sit astride the heavy load. It was a real test for its strength … and mine! I really do believe it could cope with the 600 kg it claims on Amazon. Certainly built to last. I can see that I’ll be having to pull more of the grandchildren to the park and shops in this wagon as well as adding my own canopy to make it look like an old-fashioned wild west wagon.
Nick J. –
Just around to assembling the garden trolley. Such good quality and even better than I was expecting. The instructions could be clearer as the last 4 parts are not mentioned! But I would recommend this to everyone 5 star. ( I hope my wife has hours of fun with it!!!!)
Clive Dawson –
A good versatile garden trolley, ideal for moving brash, plants and tools.
Sarah G-J –
Excellent Cart. However arrived damaged with all the nuts and bolts loose. The courier handed over a stray washer as the box was split. Instructions fine as you don’t need them it is obvious what goes where. I needed to supply extra washers to each wheel for steadiness. Using just the thin one supplied would leave the wheels wobbling. That said it is ideal for general use and I am delighted. Glad i chose the more robust albeit more money version. Some of the cheaper green ones are not as big and flimsy
Alan C –
Superb cart and ideal size for me, looked at a few options but didn’t reckon they would be up to my intended use, simple assembly and surprisingly sturdy for its weight. I’ve only had it a short time but really put it to the test shifting tons of very heavy logs on a rough 250 metre hard pack trail. It rolls well and with an assistant to give a little push you can really load it up and reduce the trips. Good delivery time with useful updates. Would definely recommend.
JW –
Have had for about 9 months now.Have carried rocks, gravel, soil, cuttings, logs, trees, and many other items. Have also towed using an old tractor mower.Still going strong and showing few signs of the life it has had. The one small weak area is where the 2 bolts connect the handle to the front axle. I have used very large sturdy washers that are much stronger than those supplied.
Tony –
The overall quality of the Garden Cart appears pretty reasonable – strong metal and Heavy Duty, No instructions have been supplied albeit its obvious how it is to be assempled. you do require a 2x17mm spanners and a 19mm spanner to assemple. Mine however has arrived with 2 Flat tyres, which do not accept air as the inner tubes have been damaged durring packaging/manufacturing. So QC is a litlle poor.I have tried contacting Customer Services ( DOMU UK ) but no answer via the phone. I have now submitted a request via amazon portal, requesting 2x repacement wheels or a replacemt unit. I will update on the outcome and speed of responce.
J.S –
I have only had this cart for a couple of weeks but appears to be sturdy with a good paint finish but time will tell if the finish lasts. I like the solid wheels and the way that the cart is easily manoeuvred but the plastic connecting bush on the pulling arm feels cheap compared to the rest of the construction. The assembly instructions might confuse anyone who is not a DIY user but i found them Ok.
Kirsty chapman –
Arrived earlier than expected so thumbs up, unfortunately no instructions managed with YouTube videos to put together. Bases needed reinforcing as buckled easily, but has been handy round the garden
The Lux –
Use it to transport tools etc to an allotment. Very sturdy and easy to assemble. Came within delivery period as described. Great value for money. Liner is a bit fiddly so haven’t really bothered with it. Very useful feature that the can be removed. Recommended
Crispian Rex –
Arrived with a spindle welded back to front.This meant there was no room to fit the wheel on the spindle and the hole for the pin had been welded on the wrong end so even if a wheel could have fit, it would not have been possible to stop it falling off.As it was urgent we had to angle grind and re-weld a new spindle. But as this would not be possible for most people the trolley should be considered potentially completely unuseable.Additionally, the welds look like they were performed by a child and would be unlikely to hold up to heavy use.
marc scott –
Very good trolley, will buy another when available for spares in the future.Much better built than all the cheaper ones on the market that are let down by flimsy steering.
Penquin –
Tile says “with lining” but only just realised we did not get one.
Claire B. –
A little flimsy, you need to line the base with some plywood. But good balance over rough ground, easy to manoeuvre, tyres are strong and sturdy, it easily carries 150kg. A real evolution from the traditional wheelbarrow.
