Allsop Home & Garden 28162 Glow Wheel Easy Le Folding Yard Cart

PROS and CONS listed below.I have had this cart for 2 seasons and never stored it inside as I should have in North Georgia. I also do NOT move the pins around... don't see any reason for it. It still folds quite flat - just wider - even in the "open" position. The tire finally popped this past winter when I moved it in freezing weather and tried to roll over a 4x4 in the yard. Completely understandable in my opinion; I should have known better. I am back for another, or may go for the larger version. However, I do find that when this is full of dirt or mulch it is about as heavy as I can handle, so a larger version might tempt me to go beyond my capability and hurt my back (some more).I mainly use it for hauling dirt or mulch (usually uphill) and for hauling heavy bags of gardening materials/supplies from my car to the back yard.PROS:1. I LOVE how flat it lays which allows me to easily shovel or push or throw dirt or leaves directly into it.2. Nice and light-weight, doesn't add much to the overall load.3. Tire rolls nicely, but could be more durable/heavy-duty. Might be a trade-off between the two though, from what I have read.4. Just right capacity for me (up to 150 lbs). I doubt I have ever exceeded much over 100.5. I found it easy to assemble, but did have to use some of my brain - not just the instructions.CONS:Not many...1. Wish the handle grips were nicer.2. Pin system seems like a hassle, but as mentioned above I do not use it.3. Tire finally popped - my fault though. And see #3 above.Hope this helps.

I’m happy with my new little wheelbarrow. It’s perfect for what I do around the yard and I wish I had bought it at the beginning of the summer instead at the end.I love that it folds to be so small for easy storage in our garage and that when I use it it lays flat on the ground so I can just push or toss dirt or rocks into it and I don’t have to lift the shovel so high. Then all you do is hook up the back flap and go. Most of the time you don’t even need to use the back flap because gravity keeps it all in there.I didn’t load it up with as much weight as it says it can handle because I don’t want to have to lift that much so I can’t speak to that and it stood up very well for the few days I used it. Hopefully next summer I’ll be putting it to the test again and will know more about it’s long term durability.The one negative I have about this product is that the back flap comes unhooked fairly easily so when I dumped it out I’d have to rehook it every time.

I ordered this on Thursday and it arrived Friday -- unassembled, of course! Contrary to many reviews, my package contained all the hardware and instructions; I even had an extra detent pin!Assembly, by one not-so-strong female appeared almost impossible. No matter how well I lined up the holes, the detent pin would not go in. Frustrated, I used a hammer and they all slipped in quickly and neatly. I suspect some of the holes are so close to the diameter of the pins they have to be forced in.Whoever sewed up the canvas goofed on one side, so there is this extraneous flap. However, it doesn't interfere with use. I do wish the tire were tubeless and don't look forward to when it needs air or a new tube.Once assembled, the wagon is easy to fill and manuever. I knew I needed a small wheelbarrow and this is so much easier than a metal one. Although I haven't changed the pins to "store," it fits neatly behind the bench on my front porch.The rated capacity is only 150 pounds, but the higher the capacity, the heavier the barrow. I'd rather make three trips to move 300 pounds, than put the complete load in a larger barrow and try to move it. (Yes, I know I said three trips when it could be done in two, but I prefer to keep the weight down.)All in all, this was a super buy. I'd recommend it to anyone who wanted a wheelbarrow for small loads.

We bought this for trail work at our land trust, and have been strapping it to a mountain bike to transport it to trail work sites. It was great for hauling smaller rocks up to 60lbs or so. But a volunteer tried to put a 100lb rock into it, after being told not to, and the PLASTIC fitting that joins the handle rod to the wheel axle snapped. It didn’t break completely, so we’re still using it for 20-30lb dirt and small rock transport, but its in our tool shed gathering dust most of the time now. The canvas does get worn down, but even with small rips and holes it still does the job we need. Great design, but cheap connectors.

This would be a great product if the wheel were not inflatable, if it were just a hard wheel. As it is, it's VERY difficult to inflate the tire because the valve is hard to get to. Then, the tube just split wide open (it seemed pretty dry and crackly) within a couple months of use. Now, am I supposed to go buy a replacement tube for this little tire? What a drag. Even getting the tube out to see how bad the hole in it was: a big pain! - not nearly as easy as changing the tube in a bike tire. I would not recommend this version of this cart to anyone, I would get one that does not have a tube and tire system that needs to be filled with air and replaced. - Oh, and part of the plastic on one side of the assembly that holds the tire broke within days. It still worked, so I was able to use it anyway, but just another drag...
