CaddyTek Explorer V8 - SuperLite 4 Wheel Golf Push Cart, Explorer Version 8

I bought this cart in Spring of 2021 and have used it about 15-20 times, and I am still very pleased with it. Here are some of the best reasons to get it:1) Feature-rich - they included a lot of great features on this cart so that everything you need while playing is at your fingertips. For example, I use my cell phone to keep track of my scores and measure distances, so I need easy access to it. The cell phone holder is perfectly placed and keeps your phone nice and snug. Likewise, the water bottle holder is extremely convenient, as is the console near the handle which holds tees, balls, ball markers, and anything else you might need easy access to. Even something like the umbrella holder comes in really handy in times of rain, but you probably wouldn't think of this as a necessary push cart feature. I have never used the included cooler pouch, which just tells me they added more features than I can even use.2) Portability - the process for folding the cart and storing it takes only a few seconds. There is a slight learning curve because it can be a little confusing at first, but once you do it a few times it is easy. The cart is small enough that I can keep it and my golf clubs in the trunk of my small sedan.3) Performance - the cart rolls smoothly and is easy to push around on four wheels, or pull on two wheels. The materials used seem to be sufficiently high quality that after a couple dozen rounds, the cart is still in good shape. It's also very stable and has never fallen over while I've used it. The rolling action is so smooth that you almost certainly will need to engage the wheel brake whenever you're on a slight incline or decline. The one negative here is that I cannot get the cart to roll perfectly straight, and so it pulls slightly to one side. There are instructions on how to adjust this, but they did not entirely work for me.Anyway, this is a great cart for the money as it gives you all the conveniences you need while enjoying a round of golf.

UPDATE: Well I have 4 rounds in now and I really like this trolley. One thing I would say is that my first assessment of the drink carrier was way off. Its actually really good. Even holds the larger power aid's and gatoraid bottles. Really fast to set up and the phone holder works really well.Original Review: Ive attached several pictures from the install, you can see whats in the package, 2 wheels un installed (but easy to do). The first fold out you just need to be careful that you hold that handle are because it swings back just like they say in the instructions. Which, by the way are pretty good and easy to read. Then came my only complaint which is the drink carrier. It has a nice mounting idea that will keep it from falling off but it seems cheap and flimsy no where near the quality of the rest of the unit. In comparison the umbrella mount is SUPER secure and high quality, and has a neat mount on the frame when it is not in use. The cup holder not so much. Now moving on to a really great feature, the cellphone mount. This will be great for my golf app and I can now not carry it in my pocket all the time. Lastly are the bungi-cord like upper bag strap, the instructions say these are only necessary if you are playing on a hilly golf course with lots of ups an downs, so hmmmm, anyway I think installing these is a must and I just wish they had non frayed ends on both sides. One side has a nice crimp on it but not the other. However once you tie the knots they seem like they will stay tied. I will come back and update this after I course test the product.

Ordered two of these, one for me and one for my wife. Overall, it is pretty good with a couple of things to be aware of:Pros:Lightweightrelatively easy to assemble and the second one was cake after doing the firstHolds the bag well and easy to pushHas a drink holder unlike a few I saw (When would you ever want to golf without the opportunityto put a "beverage" on your cart??Pretty well equippedCons:- Feels a little on the low quality side and wonder if it will break soon (I have a Travel Pro suitcase that felt the same way and 12 years later it is going strong. Plus, if I can 25 uses out of it, it will pay for the normal fees for a pull cart. After that, all profit!!!- One weird thing is that there is a lock mechanism for folding down the handle and for folding up the wheeled cart part, but only the folded handle locks when folded (and will flip open if you don't lock it). The cart part ONLY locks when locking it open. I don't know if I care yet, but seems like a silly oversight to me and it looks like it resists opening in the cart part unless you make it actually choose to unfold it. We will see if that holds up over time, like for the first 25+ uses :).All in all I say it is probably a good buy.

Love this cart. It is super light but very stable and sturdy. The bag sits well in it and doesn’t move around at all even when using on steep hills. The pockets and pouches are great for all my stuff. The phone holder is very nice -the phone just slides in and out really easily but is totally locked in when in place. Really impressive how easy that is - much better than other clamp type mounts. Only negative for me is that sometimes locking it back in the folded up position is tricky. It folds up easily but one of the locking clamps won’t always close for me. Annoying but actually not a big deal - it still folds to the super small size and doesn’t pop open or anything, just would like that to be easier.Overall, total recommend for me, great cart that makes walking much more fun.
