Thanks to its center-mounted wheels, this rugged garden cart is stable and easy to maneuver, even when hauling loads up to 300 lbs. Its unique design allows the front to tip all the way to the ground while the wheels stay put – that means you can scoop heavy stones or logs into the cart instead of lifting them. The polyethylene "tub" is great for mixing wet soil or cement, will never rust, and rinses clean in a jiffy.

Great for moving plants, compost and mulch in my gardens.

Comments about Poly-Tough Cart, Black:
I have used this cart to haul over 24 tons of landscape gravel and it is still going strong. The two-wheel design and light weight make it very maneuverable and easy on the back.

Received as a Christmas gift from my family. So far, I'm using it for hauling firewood from several 'piles' on the property. Easy to manuever and holds plenty of wood. Support legs seem a little flimsy -- time will tell.

In just a few weeks of winter gardening and yard clean up we have used the cart to move firewood and pinestraw.
I'm sure we will use it often and get rid of that old "tippy" standard wheelbarrel.

I am a 65+ lady, an avid gardner starting a new 1/2 acre woodland meadow and had the standard old wheelbarrow which was getting to be a struggle for me to move when loaded with dirt, mulch, etc. This new cart is just wonderful! It is easy to load,unload & move around, you can push or pull, it is lite but does the job. Now my husband and I race for this cart first and the old one is always last choice. (My husband keeps this one locked in the garage when not in use !!)

Love the product, I have no problem moving it even if fully loaded.

I purchased this wheelbarrow after using another brand for 5 years that was extremely difficult to tip over heavy loads of topsoil. This wheelbarrow is much easier and does the job.

Being a senior gardener who has high hills and stairs in my traffic pattern, IT WORKS for me.

Comments about Poly-Tough Cart, Black:
I used the cart to finish landscaping my new cabin. I found it better than a wheelbarrow for hauling road base and gravel through tight rough terrain. No fear of tipping and the energy required to lift and push-pull the heavy cargos was less than a wheelbarrow. Construction and the tough bed so far has held up to the abuse. Hauling lighter loads of leaves and mulch is a snap!

Comments about Poly-Tough Cart, Black:
This cart quickly displaced both of my wheelbarrows. It is lightweight, yet makes moving heavy loads a breeze. The large wheels roll easily over rough ground that wheelbarrows struggle with. The front-tipping feature makes unloading easy. I would eliminate the rolled rim, because it bends when the cart is stood on end to completely empty it.

Comments about Poly-Tough Cart, Black:
We wanted to buy a wheel barrow and this product looked like the ultimate version. We had it only a month and hauled huge tree branches from the lower back yard to the street with no problem. I was a bit concerned about the weight of the branches as the two of us could not carry them but we had no problem with the cart. Great product!

Comments about Poly-Tough Cart, Black:
We have steep hills that tend to overturn most carts, but this one is great; it's very wide and has a low center of gravity. The hardware is very good- stainless steel bolts and locking nuts, but keep an adjustable wrench and screwdriver around to tighten the odd bolt at first. I am a 110 lb. person but assembly was easy and fun; no helper needed. The tires are solid rubber, so cannot go flat. I keep it with me most of the time and throw weeds, rocks, gravel, tools etc into the sturdy, relatively shallow tub, depending upon the task at hand. It made of good, heavy materials but exceedingly well balanced and easier to roll than the lighter, flimsier models. It does require a doorway broad enough to accommodate the ends of the axles, which stick out from the hubs farther than seems necessary.[...]

Comments about Poly-Tough Cart, Black:
I had to remove a partial landscape tie wall of heavy oak ties. After using my chainsaw to cut smaller handling pieces, I loaded my cart and was able to lift the load easily and roll it over my lawn with hardly any effort due to the large wheels. I plan to use it in the fall to carry the heavy mulched leaf bags I collect, too. Thanks for a wonderful product.

well designed and, once it arrived, easy to put together and use. I appreciate the balance it has when I move thinigs around.

This is a replacement for heavy old metal wheelbarrow...and it's great now that it's together! We added longer and heavier gauge hardware to attach body to metal...provided hardware wasn't adequate.

I have a bad knee & this cart is light, easy to use & I use it all year.
from beverly, ma. on 7/15/2008
Comments about Poly-Tough Cart, Black:
I thought the cart was rated to hold up to 300lbs but when I put soil in it, the cart's wheels bent in and rubbed againts the "tub" part making it difficult to push the cart. Also, when I pushed the cart uphill the soil shifted forward and spilled out. Not what I expected for a [$] product. Very disappointed!

My two sisters and I bought your poly tough cart for our Mother. Her wheelbarrow was an old iron one from the Great Depression. It was heavy and the tire was always flat. Since I live closest It was my job to go up and put it together. One never knows what will be in a box marked, " some assembly required". What a relief it was. 12 bolts and two cotter pins. Easy. I also like the big tires made of hard rubber. No pumping.
Of course no trip to Moms' would be complete without some gardening chores so I got to use the new cart to haul away the sod from the new 9' x 16' bed we made for the blueberries that were the other part of her gift. I like how the cart tips itself up after it's emptied.
Mom has found other uses for her new cart. She is moving items from her daylight basement up to the garage for a yard sale. Handy.
We love the quality and ease of use.
LOVE CART !!

This cart is fantastic! It's so easy to maneuver and also very stable. I've used it for mulch and for moving rocks and firewood. My contractor used it to mix cement in - it cleaned up perfectly. Well worth the money - I highly recommend it.

great for the "mature" gardener
handle is a good height
wheels bring load up to a comfortable height
front tips to the ground easier to load heavy items

Comments about Poly-Tough Cart, Black:
I've only had my cart a month. Already, I've used it to haul mulch, garden trimmings, tools and even for mixing peat, perlite & cement to make toufa troughs! I especially love the comfort grip! The only drawback I see is a minor one - it does not like to stay tipped up on it's end for draining liquid or for storage.

Comments about Poly-Tough Cart, Black:
I am an average housewife who needed to move nine tons of topsoil onto a new flowerbed surrounding my house. I used this wheelbarrow for the entire job. It was a real workhorse, requiring very little muscle power due to the large wheels and excellent balance. I love this garden helper; it's well worth the investment!

Great product for many tasks. Used it to mix soil & fertilizer for spring planting. Moved Stone to build a garden wall. The outstanding feature is how stable it is when hauling things thanks to the two wheel design.

Comments about Poly-Tough Cart, Black:
The wide wheel base makes it very easy to roll but also hard to get into tight spaces, like between the rows in my raised vegetable garden. Also, it tips rather easily.

This was very easy to assemble (much to my relief). It moves effortlessly and has made gardening much easier!

Comments about Poly-Tough Cart, Black:
I am a rock fanatic! I have collected "found" rocks and incorporated them throughout my landscaping. Because of the size of some of these rocks I have gone through 3 wheelbarrels. I love the ease of loading, transporting and dumping this wheelbarrel allows. You have made my hobby so much easier,thank you.

Comments about Poly-Tough Cart, Black:
This is a very solid cart. The wide wheel-base is good for stability, but it doesn't fit through narrow paths as easily as single wheel carts.
from Madison, WI on 7/9/2008
Comments about Poly-Tough Cart, Black:
This is a great cart, I refer to it as my "hummer wheelbarrow". It is very wide though and a bit tough to push along my garden paths without taking out a few hostas. I would love the same cart with a more narrow wheel base, similar to a common wheelbarrow. The tip and hold position feature is great, dumping stuff is a breeze.

Comments about Poly-Tough Cart, Black:
I just got my 2nd cart. I love it! Would never use anything else. My first was over 10 years old and always stored outside before it started to rust and fall apart. My new one will be stored inside and babied. The cart is a pain to assemble alone, but other than that it's the best!

Comments about Poly-Tough Cart, Black:
It is good for those of us with bad backs! But as I said it is wider than a normal wheel barrow and therefore a bit harder to manuever

Comments about Poly-Tough Cart, Black:
LARGE WHEELS MAKE IT EASY TO PUSH AND DUMP. IT WILL TURN ON THE SAME SPACE, WHICH IS IMPORTANT IN TIGHT SPACES LIKE HORSE STALLS.THE POLY BODY DOES NOT ABSORB ODORS OR RUST.VERY STABLE WHEN LOADED,ROLLING OR STATIONARY. VERY GOOD PRODUCT!
from Washington on 7/7/2008
Comments about Poly-Tough Cart, Black:
This cart is nice and light, so it's easy to move with a load of dirt. However, the aluminum legs are wobbly despite frequent tightening and seem a bit flimsy for an expensive cart such as this was.
