AMES 2463875 Easy Roller Poly Yard Cart, Gray

I ordered this cart to haul wood from the front porch through the house to the wood burner. It is the perfect size to go through all doors. It maneuvers very easy, is super sturdy, holds a lot of wood, keeps the dirt & bark off the floor, I also use it to haul in groceries from the car and will use it in the summer for basic lawn work. You can't go wrong in getting this cart! I will always have one.

Bot this as a replacement for my identical more than 10 year old work horse. It costs now about twice as much as as it cost then, but it is a very versatile tool. I used it over the years to make concrete in it, to carry yard tools and dirt and gravel and mulch and twigs and leaves and what not.The plastic wheels give way after a while, but they can be replaced. I believe that the original front wheels lasted me only about 3-4 years, but I replaced them with a pair of metal ones which are still ok, but the body started to give way. I used this with heavy loads over rough terrain. Of course, I was careful with it, but that does not mean that I did not stress it a lot. It held up pretty well given its apparent build and by having 4 wheels rather than 1 it makes it possible for people with frail backs like myself to use it. I saw a better, professional version with 2 large wheels, but that was at about 3 times the price of this.

I need to move 40# bags of salt from my driveway around to my pool and couldn't seem to get the hang of the heavy, old wheelbarrow my husband used. I chose this one because of its two wheel design, non-rusting poly construction and the fact that it came fully assembled right out of the box. It has proven to be everything it's cracked up to be. Lightweight, easy to load, move and clean. One of the best outdoor inventments I've made. The wheelbarrow found a good home with a younger, stronger person and I can handle most of my outdoor hauling tasks myself again.

I used this item straight out of the box and absolutely love it! Perfect to help with the gardening around the yard and has been a back saver! I am 6ft y’all and having this has helped with less bending and being able to cart around all my stuff from front to back yard. I love that it has hooks to hang things on the side and a space by the handle to gold small things like my gloves my cup of water and small pots. The wheels are nice and big so it rolls nice on my rock path and in grass!

This Easy Roller 4 cubic foot poly yard cart - 2463875 from Ames is a nice sized yard cart for those who do not need a full sized and ackward to use wheelbarrow to do their typical light hauling. It will handle a smaller weight, such as potting mix and the pots, that you need over there across the grass. I used my easyroller already to move three bags of sand and gravel, at about 40 lbs. each. It did OK on the slope on the down side of my yard which falls off about 3 to 4 feet in about 12 feet, so it was a pretty good test. I keep doing that and the life of the cart could suffer, as it is made of a moulded plastic, with plastic wheels. It is sized and made well enough for my current needs and I gave away my large deep metal wheelbarrow when I moved, a while back and my yard is relatively flat compared to the yard I had before. The handle is placed so when you grip it, at about hip level, it easily allows lifting to a comfortable position to move the cart and to wheel it away on the larger front wheels. My wife will like it for the 4 wheel rolling she most likely will do.

The cart is lightweight, but sturdy. I use it to transport mulch and compost around the yard. The wheels are plastic, but strong. There is a handy tray with holes in the bottom to hold tools when not in use. The center of gravity over the front wheels makes it easy to dump out loads.Although there was nothing to assemble and the cart arrived ready to use, it did not arrive packaged soundly inside the manufacturer's box, but was packaged by Amazon. Amazon's packaging consisted of two extremely flimsy cardboard boxes taped together loosely in a sort of freeform fashion. There was a bit of unwadded, brown wrapping paper tossed inside the cart, apparently for appearances sake, or perhaps as a sort of stylized commentary on shipment padding. The paper might have been intended as padding, but it seemed more likely that someone in the warehouse had used the cart as a rubbish bin at one point and the person who "boxed" it so creatively thought the rubbish equated padding and so left it in place. In any case, the "box" arrived entirely in tatters (to the extreme embarrassment of the UPS driver, who apologized profusely), and the sides of the cart, once straight, were concave on arrival. The plastic was not cracked, however, and I opted to keep the cart and expect the sides would pop out eventually under a heavy load, rather than return the cart for exchange and risk the same artistic person packaging the replacement. (The paper padding/rubbish, on the other hand, arrived in pristine condition, as it had had quite a bit of room in the cart to escape crushing by whatever force had caved in the cart's sides.)Bottom line: The cart is a good, sturdy yard tool and I am glad I bought it. I would not have passed on the cart had I known in advance the extreme angst it would cause the packaging department working out shipping logistics, and the resulting condition in which it would arrive at my door, but I would have contacted Amazon prior to ordering to ask if it would be possible to specify the packaging when placing the order. If the answer to that query had been "no," then I would have given it a pass and purchased the cart elsewhere.
