Nice size property, this trailer will help with yard work... Fab a couple hinges on one side, and a latch on the other... Thanks for the review... Your daughter is so cute, and I can tell she loves dad... I have 2 daughter's... and they love to help dad out. Thanks for sharing.

[@GReviewz]

RedWhite&Blue 78 sorry it so long to respond. Yeah I’m still just running it stock. Yeah I have two daughters now. They both like to help me out. But they like really just like to ride in trailer a lot more.

Thanks for the video. I purchased one of these on sale for around $140 1.5 years ago....... and I guess for $140 its just ok. I Use mine behind my garden tractor and large ATV...... or at least I was using it behind my ATV to get firewood...... but its just to light duty and flips way to easy for any kind of heavy work. I went to dump it and the corner on the underside of trailer hooked on a root while I was pulling ahead.... and my Honda Foreman bent the trailer all to hell... I hardly felt anything and had to weld a brace in the trailer. Behind the garden tractor on a flat lawn its ok, But even my Cub Cadet 782 garden tractor will destroy this trailer if I'm not careful. My tires absolutely failed in about 1 year. They are an odd size 16x6.5-8 but normal 480x8 wheel barrow tires will fit just fine on the rims. They are a little narrower but this cart has such a high center of gravity that's its tippy with the stock tires..... and tippy with the new tires. I see no difference... the thing still flips on a dog turd. If you have a small lawn mower with a hitch and a flat lawn... I would say the cart is worth it. On uneven terrain, heavy loads, and something larger pulling it.... you will destroy it.

big d thank you for watching. I agree with you on all the points you’ve made. As of now I have been using it for the things in the video and mulch and top soil. I haven’t had it flip yet and my yard but then then again I drive slow with a load. I’m wondering if any wider tires will fit? If you like our video please subscribe.

[@SeattlePioneer]

I wonder what the rated capacity is for this vehicle? I'm guessing that such trailers are often damaged when overloaded, but are designed with high capacity which encourages overloading.

[@SeattlePioneer]

I notice that the review does not tell us what the rated capacity might be ---if it has one. That suggests how easy it is to overlook or ignore such a rating.

[@georgejohnson3579]

Thanks for sharing, great review and I thought about a bagger too, but I don't have the storage capacity, but I watched for the cart review.

[@GReviewz]

Thanks for watching. Yeah here in Nc I use the bagger about 1/3 of the year just picking up leaves in the fall and spring. The trailer is a super valuable part of my property. What kind of mower do you have?

[@Brandon_Jackson]

I’m buying one tomorrow and I’m excited! Thanks for the review!

[@GReviewz]

Thank for watching. I hope you enjoy it. Ive had it almost a year now. it still works just fine as long as you take care of it. Ive had a small amount of bed surface rust. I just spray some black rustolium over that and it takes care of it. I havnt had any tire issues like some other reviews said. Ive been using it alot this month to haul firewood.

[@Mixwell1983]

Just ordered one today for my riding mower, the previous home owners left a 4 wheel handled cart that hooks up to a mower but it is awkward to backup due to the front wheels pivoting causing you to jack knife when reversing. This should be much better

[@GReviewz]

Thanks for watching. Yeah the 4 wheeled dart isn’t good for a tow behind but great for man powered… I hope you love it! My still works great. Alil surface rust but a can of rustolium fixes it right up..

[@Mixwell1983]

@@GReviewz soo far I like it, picked it up today and used it to move some stuff from the garage down hill to my shed. Its quite large and feels good. Got the display model and they knocked off $40 so i cant complain there. My 5 year old loves getting towed around in it

[@nicmac3347]

Great review !

[@GReviewz]

Thanks for watching and for the positive feedback. My cart is still going strong. I recommend it as long as you won’t be towing it fast.

[@kingtut5923]

I have the same one and make it so the back is into a dump. very easy just attach a metal rod along top and done

[@googlreviews7813]

You guys may want to install a piece of channel inside the tongue otherwise the tongue may fold on you, I used to have e this one on our farm and eventually the tongue folded lol. 👍 Reinforcing with 1/4" thick channel which fit right in original tongue got me few more years out of it.

[@GReviewz]

Thanks for watching and for the advice..just for a visual the channel did you attach the it under the frame with the U facing down?

[@googlreviews7813]

@@GReviewz I got a channel which slid exactly into the existing tongue which is also a channel just very thin. So you take the channel and insert it into your existing trailer tongue channel to fit exactly same way. You can either weld it on, or drill holes through and bolt it together. You will also have to use a grinder and cut out a hole for your latch handle if the handle goes through the tongue like mine did. If you have access to welder, you can also reinforce the trailer in several spots and even weld instead of using big bolts that go through the trailer bed, this way when you're shoveling top soil or mulch out of it, your shovel is not hitting the bolt heads on the trailer bed which can be very annoying. Cheers! And good luck, with little work you can increase the payload capacity and make this trailer a lot more sturdy.

[@GReviewz]

Did you get it from like Lowe’s?

[@googlreviews7813]

@@GReviewz I got it from local machine shop, if you're near a weld shop or machine shop I am sure they'd sell you a piece cheap.

[@ding9633]

Why'd you blur out the cop car?

[@TreasureGeo]

Doing yard work or going to the gym?

[@GReviewz]

Thanks for watching. Sometimes both. Almost Every time I use the cart it’s mostly to move something heavy.

[@ast-og-losta]

Off topic: How do you like the bagger system for your Cub Cadet?

[@GReviewz]

Thanks for watching. It’s a bagger. When the grass is nice and dry I love it. When the grass is damp/wet at all it clogs all the time. I have never had a bagger that worked bagging wet grass...

Can a 15 hp lawnmower pull a gorilla cart loaded with mulch?

[@GReviewz]

Thanks for watching. Please consider subscribing. I’ve never seen something a lawn tractor couldn’t tow. Within reason. They are “geared” so low for torque. My dad used to tow his 18’ boat from our back yard to the front yard. It was a 95 craftsman 15 hp. As long as you have good traction it should work. How much weight would you say that trailer weighs with mulch?

[@fpsfreak4079]

@@GReviewz have no idea.my guess maybe 300lbs or a little more

[@GReviewz]

Oh yeah 300 lbs is a piece of cake. You will be fine.

[@danmar611]

Make an extension so you can leave the bagger

[@GReviewz]

Thanks for watching. I thought about doing that...however I do not have any welding stills etc. what would you suggest?

[@danmar611]

@@GReviewz ok no welder. How about U shape bolts and tighten another piece of metal to it. Or if you dont mind drilling hole on the tongue bolt another piece. I myself welded a piece and it save me a little. I didnt mean to butt in just trying to save you time thank you

[@GReviewz]

@@danmar611 no problem im glad you gave me the idea. Thank you

I sorry

Thanks for watching. What are you sorry about?

[@masonmcgrath9497]

Oops typo

[@GReviewz]

Did you have any questions about the trailer?

[@BathroomSolutions1]

I hate to be negative but this video wasn’t really a true review. You have the term ‘heavy load’. That brush is NOT a heavy load. And I wouldn’t expect to be able to attach a cart with a bagger installed. I just skimmed through this video to see what the cart looked like. As a professional remodeling contractor, I prefer a real review with pros and cons of a product. Would also be better to do a true review after a bit of actual use.

[@GReviewz]

Thanks for watching. In my defense the title of this video doesn’t say review or full review..I appreciate the feedback. It’s a metal utility trailer there isn’t a whole lot of features I can touch on that I didn’t mention. I have moved a full load of rock and cinder block with the trailer and didn’t have any trouble. Sorry the video didn’t meet your needs..

[@leftwingcensorship2547]

Great review!
