Good Price And Is Perfect Size For 4 Wheeler
Does a good job with light to medium loads. With heavy loads close to maximum load limit you need to stay on level or smooth ground or it will tip over and bend the tongue. Tongue need to be make of thicker metal to keep it from twisting under heavy loads.
Pros:Price, Light Weight, Easy To Use, Features
Cons:Durability, Tongue is weak

Missing Axel
The cart seems to be well built though be prepared for frustration. The cart purchased arrived quickly yet the Axel wasn't in included in the package. A quick email to MowersDirect was well received and the axel was expedited. Unfortunately, it wasn't the correct part.
Rather than continue dealing with Mowers Direct and enhancing my frustration, I went to a big box store and purchased 4' section of 3/4" galvanized piping and cut to length. Then drilled holes in either end to hold securing pins.
Sorry, MowersDirect... you got it all wrong this time.
Everyone please note this is the only time I've experienced an issue. I've ordered thousands of dollars in merchandise so a one off issue isn't a big deal to me! I'm certainly going to continue purchasing products from MowersDirect.com

Pros:Durable, Easy To Use, High Quality, Easy To Store
Cons:Packaging, Expensive, Missing parts, Expedited part was still the wrong side Axel length

John,
I do apologize for the issue you experienced with your dump cart and the incorrect part that was sent. In the future, if you encounter anything like this again, the best course of action is to contact the manufacturer Ohio Steel directly. Let them know that you purchased the unit from us and they will send out any missing parts immediately. It sounds like you were able to fabricate your own replacement part but I just wanted to give you another solution just in case. Thank you as always for your continued business and I look forward to dealing with you again soon. I hope you have a great day and happy mowing!
MowersDirect Ad is UNDERSELLING the features. It is listed as 15" tires with 3/4" solid steel axle, BUT it's ACTUALLY 16" tires with 1" solid axle, HEAVY DUTY!
Many of these cart specs have fake capacities, ie a 1200 lb cart really holds 800 max. Specs are so deceptive that the best way to rate them is the tire and axle size. Since this one has 16" / 1" axle, the max is probably over 1000 lbs, even thought rated at 750.
Just received, cannot vouch for quality and performance, but value is off the charts at $329.

Great little trailer. Arrived quickly, and the box was conveniently strapped to a pallet. Opened the box and everything was in order. The instructions leave a lot to be desired, but it wasn't rocket science to put this thing together either. It would have been easier with 2 people but I managed to do it myself in about 30 minutes. I bought a connector to bolt on to the tongue so I could use the ball hitch on my Polaris Ranger. That was quick and easy 4 holes and 2 bolts. This thing hauls a LOT of stuff!
VERY happy with Mowers Direct too. Quick and easy purchase and they kept me up-to-date on the order and delivery.

"Delivery was early and driver brought it right to my garage. Took 5 minutes to put together and was using it that day. Wish it had sealed bearings but was easy to grease."
This cart is a beast. I've had it for about a month, and have carried mulch, soil, and stone. I've probably pushed the weight limit with the stone too. I was concerned that the swivel might be a weak point, but it's not, it's very sturdy.

Tough Little Cart
Shipping was incredibly fast, assembly an absolute breeze. It's light-weight, strong, and hauls topsoil, brush, and wood without a problem. Can't beat it for the price.

"I ordered my cart online and received a confirmation in minutes, but realized I transcribed my zip code incorrectly. Called immediately, got a polite and helpful gal immediately who changed the zip code for me and sent a confirmation all in five minutes, with an update shipping code and tracking date. Received cart in two days by FedEx. What a piece of cake. I was really shaken about buying anything from an outfit called Mowers Direct, but I find myself back online looking at their website for more."
This is my first cart coupled with a riding lawn mower, having purchased a new home with 2 acres of land.
This cart is easy to assemble, lightweight to move around by hand and very sturdy for gardening and landscape needs.
Also bought the Jimmy hitch which works well on the mower.

Great Little Cart
This cart is well balanced when loaded, making the tilt dump feature easy to use. Love the foot pedal tilt release too. The only complaint would be the packaging on the metal components. None were wrapped or protected in any manner, just left to rattle around in the huge box. I am surprised I had as little paint damage as I found.
Actually the finish on the metal appears to be powder coated and should last. All minor hardware was well packaged in a plastic bag. The tires both needed to be inflated, and the bearing needed a good amount of grease, but this was mentioned in the instructions. I did find the HYP version, an upgrade, cheaper at Tractor Supply however.
