Folding Deer Cart, 500lbs. Capacity Game Hauler Utility, Gear Dolly with 18'' Wheels for Hunting Multi-Use, Hauler Utility Gear Dolly Cart Hunting Accessories

VERY WELL BUILT AND I CANNOT WAIT TO USE IT AT THE CAMP.

Didn't come with any of the hardware. Discription says 600lbs. limit but the paperwork that comes with it says 500lbs.

Very useful little cart, make it easy to haul what ever you need.

At the time of writing this review, this deer cart costs $199.99.There is currently a $20 coupon available, for a discounted price of $179.99.This is one of the things I've gotten first, then figured out what to use it for second. There's two main things I use it for so far:Camping: This is great for mildly bumpy, or rough terrain. I was able to load it up with my tent, sleeping bag, cooking gear, rifle, and my duffle bag of ammo, clothes, water, and other odds and ends for deep woods camping. I went out with the intent of hunting and being able to use the cart if I was successful.Building it was a bit tedious, but I was able to (Eventually) build it without using the instructions. It took around an hour to build, after having to correct a few mistakes I made. It's not all tight connections, so it can rattle and clang when going over rough terrain. I used some zip ties to keep it more taught and stable.Garden work: For this along, this is work the money. The amount of soil and wood I can move for gardening is impressive. I loaded it up with almost 600lbs of soil and it handled it no problem. More importantly, I had no problem lifting and moving the cart.Folding the cart back up isn't too bad. Just a couple of pins and bolts and it folds up decently small, enough to store in the back seat or a car or a truck bed.I'll definitely be using this in the summer at the beach. This is a great little cart and I'm glad to have it.

I used this once in the bush and it fell apart twice the last time the wheel fell off and the plastic bushings rolled off to who knows where.Made in China

I usually use our old wheelbarrow to haul firewood out of the forest, but this year was very wet and it often got mired in the mud. I ended up using an old toboggan to drag the logs over trouble spots, but I wanted to find something a bit more functional. This game cart looked like a possible option.Though I like it, I have to begin by saying the basic design has some major issues. If you plan to use it for game it should be okay, but if you want to haul wood you’ll have to spend some time modding it after purchase. If you’re not willing to do that, I’d strongly recommend you keep looking. This one needs some TLC before it’ll be ready to go.The directions aren’t great (they’re just a word document with a few random photos), but the basic assembly is so easy you don’t really need them. That said, the first thing most people will want to do is reverse the handlebar (see photo). If you’re in the 5’ range you may prefer the stock angle, but folks around 6’ will find it sits far too low. I moved some wood with it today and found the front tended to catch the ground until I made the switch. The handle also lacks padding, so you’ll want to add some (I popped on a piece of pipe insulation which worked well).It operates like a cross between a wheelbarrow and a hand truck, which I sort of liked. It’s not as easy to maneuver as a wheelbarrow, but the two side wheels make it more stable on uneven ground. That said, it’s difficult to lay horizontally like a wheelbarrow and the central axle can cause some balance issues, letting it bob up and down quite a bit during use.The slats on the body have large gaps between them, which means logs will often fall through or end up rubbing against the axle. I had some trouble keeping wood in it when I used today. It was very frustrating, so I plan to add some fencing wire to close up the gaps. If you’re trying to transport a quartered animal you might face similar difficulties.It’s kind of rattly in several spots, so you may need to add some duct tape in key areas. Most joints are held using removable security pins, but the axle is secured with Cotter pins instead. It works, but I’d prefer the same sort of locking pins used elsewhere on the frame.Pros:-Works fairly well; sort of a cross between a wheelbarrow and a hand truck-More stable than a wheelbarrow over rough terrain-Can be pushed or pulled-Feels durable; can transport a fair amount of volume/weight-Can fold for storageCons:-Modding necessary to make it functional; must rotate handles and add wire over gaps-Not as easy to maneuver as a wheelbarrow; have to push down rather than pull up-Central wheels/axle can cause balance issues front to back-Difficult to set down horizontally as you would a wheelbarrow-Directions are just a word document with random steps illustrated-Uses Cotter pins on axle instead of locking pins-A bit rattly; may need duct tape in some spots-No padding on handles-Folding process is a bit tediousAt $154.99 this is priced very closely to most similar products I’ve seen on Amazon. If I were rating it as a device out of the box, I’d probably give it 2.5 stars. Still, the frame is a decent skeleton to build on if you don’t mind a little extra work. I’m going to give it 3.5 stars (which is probably a bit too generous), but I have to stress that’s only for people who are willing to spend some time tinkering to bring it up to standard.My rating: 3.5 stars
