    Absolutely worth the investment to have to transport your gear. I used a cheaper 4 wheel wagon from a local retailer until I get this unit. I cab easily transport all that I need to to the bank and still have room should I need it for staying beyond more than just a day or overnight session. Really convenient that it folds to a compact size for transport. From out of the vehicle to set up is less than 5 mins. Wouldn't want to not have it. Invaluable to me and money well spent.

    Works great, few minor gripes, you have to fold it exactly like you unfolded it or you will chip the paint up with metal to metal contact. 90% of the welds look great, have 2 that have holes in them.

    This thing will get your gear to spots with small clearance. Was driving it down a path lined with tall weeds,mud in the middle and this thing drove on the sides of said path. This is one of the better investments I've made. Folds pretty flat, will just take a little while to figure out what part folds first and so on.

    Well thought out piece of kit. Easy to load in small car (Toyota Yaris 4dr HB) keeping the front wheel on and placed in the middle almost between the two front seats obviously with the back seat down. Light enough to reverse out of the car's hatch back. Gear can be placed under the barrow or on each side whilst it is in the car. Very nice. I would encourage people to research on YouTube. No need for me to disassemble. Excellent.
    Couple of weeks later experience shows me that weight distribution and how high you lift is critical to one's comfort. Straight arms for me (Age 67 and 5' 10") was hard work until I lifted a little higher with bent arms and more weight towards the front with even weight distribution across the barrow meant so much more comfort and less pausing to get my breath back whilst on the path to the swim.
    I would add that until you get the across weight distribution correct the tendency to lean to one side or the other will occur. It is a shame that the standard wheel has not been replaced by the optional wider wheel right from the get-go. If available I would get that right away and just keep the standard wheel as a spare.

    040120 I have now customized this barrow and added a twenty inch wheel to each rear leg using a 5/8 inch threaded axle. Perfect height attained for me at nearly 6 feet tall. Easy to push and a lot less wear and tear on my back. Do purchase the Trakker Front Barrow bag as I have for truly great weight distribution.

    Finally bought one and man what a difference it has made already. I have gone from wither a few trips or putting everything on my back. I fish with my wife and due to her back she can not carry much of our tackle.

    This is a big barrow and will carry all my gear and hers as well. It is almost too big for what I need. It looks almost empty with my tackle and rod quiver and two chairs.

    The pouch in the middle is really big as well. It carried 3 bait buckets and my boots with ease.

    Highly recommend this barrow for those looking to ease the struggle of carrying a ton of gear. .

    I love this, it carries a lot of gear, or as little as you want, it is one of the best investments I have made, don't know how I got along w/out it??? This thing rocks, it is very well built!!! This barrow is worth every penny I spent on it!!

    My trakker X-Trail Galaxy barrow is one of the best purchases I have made. Durable sturdy and very well built. If you do short or long session this will get all your gear there in a speedy fashion. Lets face it the longer your hooks are in the water the better chance for that new PB. I use mine every weekend on short sessions and camping trips both. Folds up compact to a 2x2x1 foot so it will fit into any boot and easily into my truck. Two thumbs up. Look for it in the April CAM magazine review and a video on youtube. Until next time see ya on the bank!

    I purchased this product for longer carp sessions, but it has also proven useful for family camping trips, setting up deer stands, and hunting blinds. For the money a very well made product.

    I purchased this Barrow over the Trakker Gravity Barrow from the advice of Trakker sales consultant and team member suggesting this is a great Barrow for taller framed anglers. This was one of the best purchases I have made to make my travel to the water efficient without having to really skimp out on what gear I bring. This thing is solid and durable and, for the most part, quite lightweight. Great Barrow!
