Assembly was relatively quick and easy and all parts lined up as they should. Frame and hardware are high quality. We quickly put ours to work moving mulch, soil, masonry/bricks, and will be hauling logs next. Here are some other observations: High Mobility—The cart, even when loaded down rolls easily w/free-spinning wheels and large flat-free tires that handle even the most difficult terrain, e.g., bumpy surfaces, gravel, and even very loose soil/sand. I’ve had pneumatic tires and would not choose that option, as they frequently lose pressure and do not roll as easily when loaded down, requiring more effort to pull and maneuver. Serious Hauling—The polyethylene (PE) bed/bucket, while relatively lightweight can handle a Lot of weight, and w/high sides, quite a bit of material. Easy Dumping—The dumping mechanism is smartly designed to allow it to go well past vertical (almost 180 deg, if necessary) to allow everything in it to fully empty. Would be even better if the bucket turned for side dumping also (JD sells one for their lawn mowers/tractors, but more expensive and no handle for manual use). Turns on a Dime—The cart has a zero-turn-type radius, allowing it to make hard turns easily. Versatile—I would prefer to have paid less, but the cart is more versatile and, in many cases, cheaper than carts specifically designed for pulling behind a lawn tractor. Most are not designed for manual handling—no handle, and many with only 2 wheels (vs. 4). This cart’s handle removes so it can be attached to most lawn mowers/tractors, ATVs, etc. The handle’s pin and nifty locking clip are also designed to secure the cart to most receivers, so no additional accessories are required for most hook-ups. TIPS: 1. This cart is middle-sized. If you’re on the fence between this model (7 cubic feet/1200 lb capacity) and the one w/smaller bed/bucket (4 cf/600 lb capacity), I would go w/this one. Check the attached photos for a frame of reference. Inevitably, a project will come along where you wish you had more surface area and more volume/capacity. A beefier, heavier, and pricier 10 cf cart is also available, but I believe it’s only sold w/pneumatic tires. 2. Easy rolling can make slopes more of a challenge as the cart will want to take off on its own if not parked correctly (no brake). And taking a load down a relatively steep slope can be difficult to control as it wants to go faster than you do. In these situations, you may want to reverse position and allow the cart to go down ahead of you, so your weight can function as a brake and you can better control the cart. 3. You have to physically lift the front of the bucket to unload it. For heavier loads consider distributing more of the weight towards the back end. This makes lifting easier, and more weight in back provides a gravity assist in dumping the load. Your arm, shoulder, and back will thank you. 4. While ruggedly built and durable, it’s not indestructible. When not in use, consider storing it in a shed or under some kind of cover. If you’re limited on space, you can also utilize the empty bucket to store things like bags of fertilizer, seed, mulch, soil, rock, salt, gardening supplies/tools, etc.
