Review on Get More Done With SuperHandy Electric Wheelbarrow Utility Cart - 330 Lbs Capacity For Easy Material Hauling And Dumping! by Jesse Bailey

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Minor assembly issues, overall an awesome product, awesome price! I added casters to make it better.

First off - I would classify this wheel barrel (barrow) as a heavy duty residential grade tool or a light duty commercial grade tool. It is design well and the quality is obvious. Assembly is required. Packaging was excellent. Assembly instructions poor. There were 3 negative things I discovered - 1. One of the 2 tires was not inflated, I had to add air (this may be necessary for fitting the parts into the shipping box). It wasn't a big deal for me because I have an air compressor and could inflate the tire easily, however if a buyer does not have a compressor this would be an inconvenience to get the tire inflated. 2. Two of the bolts securing the barrel/bucket to the frame were left loose. 3. One of the wheel rims had paint in the axle hole making a very tight fit onto the axle. The paint had to be removed before fitting the wheel onto the axle. None of these problems were major but the wheel barrel should probably be assembled by someone mechanically inclined.Once assembled and I found the battery had a charge on it and the wheel barrel was immediately functional. I did not use it but put it on charge with the charger that comes with it. There is a red indicator light built into the charger to show it is charging, the lite changes to green when fully charged.I found this wheel barrel to be very strong in pulling/pushing power. Wide open it moves at quick walking pace in the forward direction and in reverse it moves at a slow walk . The speed is variable in both directions so you can move at a snails pace if you want.Overall this is a very nice well built product. The manufacturer needs to get those minor issues taken care of. But in the meantime if you are the kind of person that expects everything to be absolutely perfect right out of the box, don't buy it. However, if you are somewhat tolerant and have some mechanical skill, by all means ad this tool to your collection.Update - 11-23-19 - Good news and bad news: I have had my wheel barrow for about 3 weeks now. It quit on me today. Good news: It's an easy fix. Apparently there is electrical overload protection built in. There is a reset switch (circuit breaker) built into the speed control switch (on the side of the switch above the lever, there is a little square rubbery pad, press the pad to reset. You may need to have the main switch turned on when you do this. If the instructions were written better, they would contain information about the reset. If I had known about it I could have gotten a days work out of the unit with a 2 second fix. I still believe this is a good product. Manufacturer needs to put more in the instruction manual. Hopefully this info will benefit some of you folks out there.I added some 4 inch casters to the rear to provide less load for the operator. Works great! See pictures attached.

Pros
  • The electric motor is quiet and emission-free, making it an environmentally friendly option that reduces noise pollution in urban environments
Cons
  • It may struggle to navigate through wet or slippery terrain
