Gorilla Carts Poly Dump Cart, 1500 lb. Capacity, 10 Cu Ft, Black

Love the cart. We have a large property in a mountainy/rural area and the cart has made it much easier to move our firewood and landscaping supplies around the property. My first task was to "relocate" ~ 3 cords of wood from our cutting and main storage area to our "winter" firewood storage area. The cart is large and easily held 3-4 times the amount of wood per trip as my standard firewood cart. I have only had the cart for a month, but I think it is very sturdy. When loading the cart with firewood I was literally standing on our cord stacks of wood and tossing 2-3 pieces of 16"-20" long almond and oak wood pieces into the cart (a good 10-15 foot toss) and the cart held up well. Based on how hard I have been on the cart in the 1st month with no issues, I expect the cart will be as durable over the long haul as it's initial toughness suggests. The cart has good size wheels and a nice strong handle making it great over tough terrain and pretty maneuverable. I think they could improve the maneuverability of the cart when going backwards (pushing instead of pulling) with a load (necessary a few times when try to "park" the cart next to a loading area. One other feature that would be appreciated is a small hand or foot brake to keep the cart from rolling down when parking on a on a hillside for loading or unloading. I ran into this issue when moving my firewood and when parking the cart on the slope, I had to put wood pieces behind the wheels to keep the cart in place. Not a big deal, but it would be great if you could just squeeze a handle, lever or button to set a brake without having to bend down and put something behind the wheels. Another great feature is the "dump truck" ability. It's an easy way to empty the cart when you don't have to worry about stacking the contents neatly (like when using mulch, etc.).

It's bigger than I imagined and I need to be careful how I load the box. After the easy assembly I loaded it up with firewood. The cart and tires stayed nice and stable but I could see immediately that it would be easy to put more into it than I could pull by myself. Maybe my lawn tractor could handle it better but I do not regret the purchase. May 17 update. I've used this for a couple of months and it has been a handy piece of equipment. If you plan to use it to pull loads by hand be careful that you don't put more into the tub than you can manage. Also, I hooked it up to my lawn tractor and it pulled quite well and had no problems. I haven't experienced the bent bar problems with the convertible handle that others mentioned but maybe my usage differs from theirs. One big drawback is that it's just about impossible to back up while connected to a lawn tractor or other motorized vehicle. There is no way to lock the front axle to keep it from turning while backing and I ended up just trying to get close. The dump feature comes in handy but if the load is too heavy you may not be able to use that function. I have seen some surface rust but I that comes with use and exposure to the weather. Longer term use will give me a better impression of how it will hold up but I am satisfied...so far.

First thing I noticed is the instructions are super easy to follow and understand, the pictures are useful and the way the parts are organized is efficient..overall super easy to put together. The maneuverability of the wheelbarrow is fantastic and it moves so easily and smoothly, easy to pull and push up and down hills and over uneven surfaces. Its got tight turning which is helpful, It's sturdy and I can appreciate that it has 4 wheels and sits level while I pile on the weight. The only thing I'd suggest is some sort of locking mechanism to keep it from rolling, but you can also do that by twisting the front wheels right or left. The only thing I've had to keep in mind is this wheelbarrow definitely can carry more than I can lift to dump. As long as I know my limits, it's easy to dump. This wheelbarrow is awesome! Super helpful! To me $300 is expensive for a wheelbarrow, but if you are needing heavy duty, I think it's gunna be worth the price. It's a one and done, all you'll need for all your around the yard projects.

This is a big cart! 16” wheels seems almost ridiculous but it doesn’t require to you crouch as much. It is very sturdy, highly maneuverable, and a bit heavy but it is all steel construction. The assembly was a little annoying since you need a screwdriver to hold the screws and a socket with an extension since an adjustable wrench will take forever or gouge up the paint. 13mm,17mm,19mm and a 24mm. One of the pieces was slightly bent (see photo) but it’s not affecting the performance in any way. One flaw is the insufficient number of 3/4” washers that go on the axle ends after the wheels go on. The instructions show axle/tire/washer/cotter pin. There’s too much slop in the axles before the cotter pins go on so I plan to double up the washers to stop the wheels sliding along the axles despite the fact that this cart will never be on the racetrack. The bearings are 19mm in diameter pressed into the wheels just in case someone wants to know. The hitch pin is nice but there is a lot of slack hooking it up to the mower and there is a lot of paint scraping and clanking going on over bumpy terrain. The swivel handle and hitch (very slick) pin hole is too small for a magnetic hitch pin so it may require drilling but even then it may not allow enough articulation of the hitch. The release and wheel articulation is genius. It’s like a dog going potty and it allows for the bed to rotate almost a full 90 degrees to get every grain of sand out of that dump bed!

Just received and assembled my GOR10-16 Super Heavy Duty Gorilla Cart today. The box appeared to have taken a severe beating in transit, and when I first saw it, freshly delivered and laying on my lawn with smashed in corners and flaps of cardboard ripped away and then and taped back in place, I couldn't help but groan in exasperation as I expected the worst. Surprisingly, other that some dirt/rust powder that had entered the box during shipping and dirtied the plastic cart tub, the cart was in great shape - no cracks, ground down corners or other shipping related damage. Unboxing and assembly took about 30 minutes using common hand tools. The instructions were easy to follow and the hardware packaging was foolproof. The cart sits much higher than I thought it would (a good thing) and it has pretty large tires. Directly after assembly, I attached the cart to my ATV and used it to collect my trash cans at the end of my driveway. The cart handled fine and maneuvered very well - it has an extremely tight turning radius. As this cart has no suspension to speak of, it bounces like it's on a trampoline when traveling over rough surfaces. The only criticisms I have at this point include, the ridiculously skimpy metal tongue which is used to attach the cart to a tow vehicle (it's almost paper thin), the actual length of the tub is less than the described length (mine measured about 42 inches). I don't expect that the tongue will hold up well if the cart is frequently used for towing behind a ATV, tractor, etc. and I expect I'll need to reinforce it at some point in the near future. For such a great, sturdy cart, I'm disappointed that the manufacturer scrimped on material in this crucial area.

I will be very short . It is really good.

Two Year Update: I was thrilled to discover it was so easy to convert this cart to something that can be towed behind a lawn tractor. I thought I would need to buy a kit or something, but no, the handle flips around and poof you can attach it. I'm now looking at getting a second cart so I can have one attached to the tractor most of the time and one that I pull by hand most of the time. Planning to ditch the two-wheeled wheelbarrow after I get my second Gorilla. What a beast! Yeah I read the measurements online, but I still had to gulp a couple of times when it came, all 80lbs of it. It's far bigger than I had in mind for picking up muck in the horse paddock. And I probably would kill my back if I regularly filled and dumped it. But you know what, it's still going to be PERFECT for toting two or three bales of hay (50lbs each). With four big wheels and a high clearance, I am confident this cart is going to do really well for me to get my bales of hay out the shed and transport them over mud and snow. I've already hauled a couple of heavy loads of junk out to the curb across gravel, and I love how it handles on the gravel terrain. For putting it together, I really appreciated the way they put all the bits and parts out on cardstock with it clearly laid out as to which ones went in which phase of the build. Very nice! Downsides - the cotter pins for the wheels are the bend-back type which are typically sharp and annoying. I'd much rather have the snapping kind of pin which can be removed and re-used easier. I will probably upgrade them soon. Secondly it would've been nice to have a no-flat option for the wheels. These are air-filled and I'm sure will do fine, but if I'd had an option to upgrade to no-flat to start out, I would've gladly taken it. Update: hauling a dozen cinder blocks across the pasture was no problem at all, easy as could be. One slight complaint from working with it that day, is that there are no brakes which can be a problem when working with a heavy load. I ended up using a plank of wood as a chock on the wheels.

This is the best wagon/ dump cart ever. I had always wanted a Gorilla Cart but after I had seen a couple in person I couldn't see paying that price for something that wasn't much bigger then what I was already using. After I read the reviews and someone posted a pic with her husband sitting in it😲 I knew this was bigger then any cart I had ever seen. U will not be disappointed it is easy to assemble(I am a woman) I did it by myself in about 30 mins. It is easy to pull and can be pulled behind a zero turn or any thing with a hitch. It has a handle u pull to release the bed for easy dumping.Well worth every penny. Pictures do it no justice I promise u that.

Large capacity, very well made. My husband says it is the most useful tool he's ever bought and recommends it to everyone who'll listen. Super fast delivery. It shipped within hours and was here in 2 days.

Le côté pratique 2 dans 1 soit avec le tracteur ou bien tout simplement sans avec la poigné grande capacité pour le volume et aussi le poids Et n est pas trop large ca passe dans les portes de cour arriere 👌

Was concerned that it would not end up being as strong as it appeared in the photos but was pleasantly surprised and impressed. It turned out that it was better than I expected. I later saw the almost identical trailer at John Deere but 20% higher priced.

Amazing stron tough wagon, many use's. I would definitely recommend.

Too expensive for cheep plastic. Back end split at the edge within the first month. I guess it is meant for leaves.
