Great Wheelbarrow. I had many choices and for what I was going to use it for only mulch, firewood, and some dirt it works great. Some of the people who have complained sounds like they just bought the wrong one for what they are using it for. If I was going to use it for heavy stuff I would have bought the blue tray Ace wheelbarrows which are heavy duty ones.

Wheel needs air frequently, metal tray rusted through, paint protection not adequate for demands of product. Not a great value for the money. There's no replacement tray available. You must buy a new wheelbarrow.

I got it for moving wood chips or mulch from a dumped pile to places around the yard. With a 5 or 6 tine manure fork (seems odd!), you can fill a wheelbarrow much faster than with a shovel. The chips (from having a tree service chip tree branches into a pile) have enough body to allow them to be lifted with a fork. A fork slides right into a pile of chips or mulch.

This 6 cu ft wheelbarrow is sturdy enough for basic work around the yard and garden. It's not for moving concrete, etc. Light and easy to handle,. The tire can be punctured, so use common sense.

The wheel axle brackets are not shown in detail on the instructions, so you can't determine which way the bolts go. I opted to pass the square bolt shoulder through the metal bracket slots.

Tip: Apply light grease or anti-rust to the threads of the bolts during assembly to prevent rust. Liquid anti-rust from a gun shop works or WD40. I greased the wheel axle and inside the wheel shaft that rides the axle. It keeps water and rust out and makes the wheel turn smoother. Storing the wheelbarrow under shelter (garage, covered, etc.) will preserve the handles and the bolts/nuts from corroding and 'freezing' with rust. And be sure to orient the 'wedges' that support the bucket the correct way!

This product was easy to assemble. Ideal for light-duty work involving a light weight load. I assembled this a day after purchase and was using it for moving dirt and stone. The tire blew out after about two hours of use. It's an easy fix, I am replacing the tire with one that is designed for a higher weight capacity. The wheel barrow will be able to handle anything, and still less expensive than buying a contractor grade unit. I didn't notice a weight capacity when buying it or putting it together. Just something to keep in mind when making your purchase. This is probably okay for 100-125lbs, otherwise a good buy.

Great Wheelbarrow. It stated that this is a residential wheelbarrow so it works great for regular jobs. If i needed a better wheelbarrow i would step up to the Blue Ace ones which are a thicker wheelbarrow and better undercarriage. Great product ACE!!

Do not use this for any materials that have weight, such as firewood, dirt, or aggregates. Do not expect good results using it on uneven terrain, as you sense you might break it during use. There is only one thin cross-strap supporting the undercarriage, yet there are 2 additional pre-drilled holes for the purpose of an another strap that are unused. Therefore this is an area that can break if your are transporting weight or using it on challenging terrain. I am returning this unit. However, if you plan on using it for lightweight gardening, trash, or recycling... it will satisfy your needs.

The Ace model was just a bit lighter than True Temper but strong enough for vegetable garden and lawn use, and noticeably easier to wheel. Its handles were more comfortable and canted up to be about four inches higher where you bent over to grab them. They would be easier on my back. Clearly the choice to work with over time. BUT, I chose the True Temper model for an extra $6. because it did NOT have ACE in large white letters on the side.

With the options of a 4 cubic foot wheelbarrow, an expensive Jeep contractor wheelbarrow, or this particular wheel barrow, it was an easy choice. Your selection is rather limited in mid October.

Despite not being able to get the model I really would have liked to buy, I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of this wheelbarrow. I plan to make a few modifications to beef it up a bit (flat free tire eventually and wooden risers/braces), but overall pretty nice for the price!
