I would give this 0 stars if I could Apr 26, 2006
The tub cracked within 10 minutes of using it. I contacted the company, they replaced the tub and the replacement did the same. BUYER BEWARE!!!!
Agri-Fab 45-0257 5.5 cu.ft. Poly Lawn Cart Mar 19, 2006
We, too, found the cart to be very useful. But, it only lasted about 3 months, also. The body cracked, split, and then a piece fell out of the lip's corner. It has been held together with duct tape while we have searched for a replacement tray, but have not been able to locate one that didn't cost as much as the original cart when you add shipping to it. It was great for the first 3 months, but we will look for another material in the next cart that will hold up. We didn't abuse this item at all... used it for minor yard work and toting groceries from the garage to the house. Great concept, but poor material!

Agree....poor material Feb 25, 2006
I too have not had great success with this product. Cracks developed after a short time and progressed rapidly to the base. Will look for another in a stronger material.

Wrong Material -- It Cracks Oct 21, 2005
I bought this cart for yard work (maintaining 1 acre of lawn, beds, and woods) and I liked that it was more stable than a wheelbarrow and could potentially leave a hand free while pushing or pulling it. It is also lighter.
It came quick, assembled easily, and has worked OK for its intended purpose for three months. However, the curled-over front rim has cracked and broken off on one side and cracked on the other. The cracks are spreading both along the rim and down into the bucket. It will shortly become unusable. It looks like the bucket is made from a polymer/fiber composite, probably for low weight and high strength, but it has no toughness. I don't think that three months is a sufficient life for this product in the light duty that I have given it. I have seen plastic wheelbarrows last much longer.
I have contacted the manufacturer for a replacement. Agri-fab's warranty policy is onerous, roughly "write us, maybe we'll send you an address to send the item back, when we get it we'll see." It's now 22 days since I wrote them (with photographs), and I've had no response. Even if they do replace it, if the material is the same as before I expect the same durability problem with the replacement.
Update: After two more months, I've had no response from the manufacturer, and I put the cart out for the trash haulers to take to a landfill.
Amazon used to sell this item directly, but no longer. Keep looking...
