Ohio Steel 1000P-SD Poly Swivel Dump Cart, 15 cu.ft., 1000 lb Load Capacity

Main issue I have is it won't dump all the way, larger tires would fix this, or a shorter dump bed. When you dump, you have to use a shovel to scoop it out, and a shovel blade digs into the dump bed being softer plastic. hitch was a little bent so had to unbend that and the spring loaded pin is almost exactly the same size as the hole, so the planets have to align just right to get it to secure. Drilled the hole a little bigger, no more issues. Looking for ways to re-engineer the height of the dump bed so it'll dump all the way. Other than that, all hardware was there, pretty easy to assemble, tows beautifully. The tires come very low on air pressure, make sure you fill them up before using, tires went flat 400 yards away from any source of air with a load, and mower/trailer got stuck in the mud because of it. Had to bring the car with an air pump, then the car got stuck.

built well

I've had this for about a year now and I absolutely love it! It's very light weight, very easy for me to dump and very easy to maneuver. I mostly use it behind my side by side Mule & have also used it behind the mower. It's almost impossible for me to back this thing up behind the Mule ( it's a piece of cake for the Hubs) BUT as a older than 50, (5' tall 100lb female) - It's super easy for me to disconnect & hand walk the cart to it's dumping location. I use it for the yard, garden, cleaning the chicken coop, moving dirt & wood chips - so nothing majorly heavy - but I don't doubt it can carry the weight it says it can. I'm pretty sure my husband didn't have any issues assembling it, I don't know about the instructions - he doesn't use them & probably threw them away LOL. We try to buy Made in USA whenever possible, this is a great MADE IN USA PRODUCT! I definitely recommend it and will shop this company again.

This attachable wagon hoes perfect with my z John Deere riding mower. Super sturdy . Well made but not too heavy to move about on your own.

The cart itself is rugged, appears that it will hold up well to use over the years, and the tip/swivel feature is more useful than it first seems. I'm sure I'll get my monies worth from it. I took off 1 star on this review due to assembly and manufacturing/shipping issues.Firstly, the item is packed in a large cardboard box, with all the metal parts, axle and tires LOOSE in the box. Absolutely no packing material or padding. The box was delivered by FEDex and looked like it had been through hell and back. The poly tub, metal parts and tires were all with scratches and gouges since they are free floating in the box. I mean, sure, it'll look this way after the first few uses anyways, but for nearly 400 dollars I'd really like to be the one who makes it look that way rather than get it new this way.Assembly of the cart found several annoyances. The holes in the poly tub for the bolts to pass through were with so much plastic flashing that the bolts would not pass through. The holes needed to be drilled out. Simple to do, sure, but certainly not expected. Second, the axle was rusted. It needed a clean up with WD40 and steel wool. Thirdly, one of the hubs of the tires would not fit on the axle. The bearings in the hubs are not ball bearings, they are a babbitt metal bearing (solid metal) and one of them had scoring and ridges that prevent it from slipping on the axle. Sandpaper was not enough to clean it up. It took a die grinder and a deburring bit to clean it up enough to fit. Fourthly, one of the grease zerks on the hub pointed inward when fully tightened, which means you can't get your grease gun on there. I had to replace the zerk with a new one I had on hand to be able to fully grease the hub. Lastly, the hitch pin was install from the factory wrong (or got smashed in the box since everything was freeballing it ), preventing it from freely moving. It required some refitting to make work well.So, to recap, the fit and finish leaves something to be desired and you may need to work a little to get it assembled. But once its assembled, the cart is fairly nice and should serve you well. The lock and release mechanism of the dump feature is actually quite robust, and leaves me with no concerns on it breaking or failing. The poly tub is thick and rigid. It feels solid unlikely cheaper metal carts.

This isn't going to be so much of a review as a word of warning. The cart when properly assembled is great, no complaints about the cart at all.However, I had an issue that may be common on this unit. If you have one of these, you should carefully inspect the locking mechanism on the drawbar to ensure that it is fully engaging with the front support on the bed of the cart. When initially assembled, mine was not. This can be a serious issue that can lead to the unit releasing the load unexpectedly possibly injuring someone.I am going to include photos that will show the problem and the simple fix.

Very strong
