Wheelbarrow Heavy Duty Galvanised Steel Home Garden Cart 90ltr 180kg - Puncture Proof Tyre

This barrow is quite simple to put together, you need tools. It seems stable, sturdy, good capacity, easy to tip. The wheel is solid and heavy, which adds to the stability. It is easy to manoeuvre through doorways and round sharp turns. The handles are adequate. It’s not too bad on steep steps if you are very careful and don’t overload it. common sense says never load your wheelbarrow to capacity, make more trips, keeps you fitter and your wheelbarrow in good shape! I think it is actually a good buy for the money and will do just fine for the jobs I have, saves the workers bringing their own. Always wash out your barrow and stand it up to drain and dry. This will prolong it’s life and it’s much nicer to start a job with clean tools.

I was looking for a wheelbarrow with a metal bowl, metal wheel and pneumatic tyre. This barrow ticked all the boxes and was reasonably priced. Assembling the barrow was easy enough, although the quality of the pre-drilled holes was terrible. One had been drilled incorrectly, but instead of binning the part the operator just moved it to the right place and drilled again making a massive double hole :) Some weren't fully open so you had to knock the bolt through. Some parts were bent and the bowl itself was quite heavily scored from the pressing process. It was a bad first impression to be honest. However, once the barrow was assembled I actually liked it. It holds a lot, is easy to steer and despite some reviews saying the handles were too short I found them to be okay (I'm 5'10"). As for the 180 kg rating, there's no way this barrow will take that weight! But used sensibly, it's robust enough for most jobs. The only thing I have noticed in use, is the wheel is quite far forward of the load, so it doesn't provide much support. I had to lug some breezeblocks and very much felt that my back was taking the weight of the load rather than the wheel! My review contains images taken during assembly so you can see the issues. Despite the shonky workmanship I would still recommend the barrow for general use.

Liked- Strength Capacity Design Size overall Air wheel Disliked: Handle stand could be wider apart at the bottom to prevent tip over This is a great barrow for the price, ive used it to carry 196 breezeblocks (structual 7n ones) through to the garden in batches of 6/7 without any problems, its been used to take 2 tons of gravel, sand etc and its survived all of it and still in great condition. Assembly is a bit of a pain but once together its great

Bought this to replace a basic 'builder's barrow which rusted out after 27 years service. Assembly was pretty easy and the barrow appeared to be of good sturdy construction. I used it for the first time today, seven weeks after purchase, moving compost from heap to borders. Compost was wet and heavy so some power was required to push the barrow up a slight incline. It soon became apparant that the handles on this barrow are too short. If the barrow is heavily loaded the poor leverage on the short handles mean that it is very heavt to lift and control. Worse still, the operator finds that when he leans in to push the loaded barrow his knees contact the rear rim of the barrow body. I compared the handle length of this item with those of my old barrow and another one which I have. The handles on the DJM are 6 inches shorter. Believe me, this makes a big difference in use. I would not be able to use this item to transport soil, sand, gravel, wet concrete or anything of similar weight. Very disappointed, extremely poor design. I guess it is too late for a refund so, for me, a waste of money. It will be suitable for grass clippings perhaps. Or can one buy handle extensions?

Engineer-husband found the fixings very poor and felt anyone without good manual skills would struggle. Both a screwdriver and spanner are needed when tightening nuts and the brackets in our pack needed to be unbent. Concave washers would help. Generally, a good gardening barrow but certainly not a builder's barrow.

Girlfriend bought it for her mother for Christmas, as she is a keen gardener and has a lot of work to do in her back yard! Easily assembled and pretty sturdy and rugged parts. It was more than adequately wrapped/protected, but some will probably find it a bit heavy to carry on their own - have another person help just in case as it's a pretty awkward sized box! The awkward size of the box however does translate into a pretty handy sized wheelbarrow, which is more than enough for my mother-in-law's garden! Overall, a very good find and an even better buy. At this price, you can't really go wrong.

Easy to assemble great solid tyre highly recommended.

It's good enough for the job It's going to do but I bought it as a present and I am disappointed by the aesthetics. It is scratched and dented in places. I wonder if I received one that someone had already tried to assemble. It wasn't the easiest, although it really should have been, I just think the holes are a little off and the handles are maybe not bent quite right. It took two of us to put it together, and it wouldn't go when we followed the instructions, so we loosely attached the handles and went from there. A little gentle persuasion and it eventually came together. We also had to clean off the grease first, so be aware of that, it came off and left the cloth black. All that said it's OK and my husband will love it, I'm just not convinced that, for the money, it shouldn't all have been a bit smoother going.
