What Customers Are Saying
The plastic tub of this wheelbarrow is prone to cracking and breaking easily, even with light use, rendering the product unusable. While the overall design with stable dual-wheels is praised, the poor quality and durability of the tub is the main issue, as it cannot withstand the weight and impact of common yard tasks. Replacement parts are also difficult to find, leaving customers with no recourse once the tub fails. This wheelbarrow is not recommended due to the consistently poor performance and durability of the plastic tub.

Would Not RecommendI have had mine for about 4 years and it worked well. It has recently developed cracks in the tub where it attaches to the frame. It should be more durable. I cannot recommend.
Tub Cracks
Would Not RecommendI have had two of these. The first one I let my brother-in-law borrow and he ended up cracking the tub. I figured he was just hard on it and he purchased a replacement one for me (gave me the money to get it). I bought the same model again and now mine has multiple cracks in the tub with what I would call "light use" after a couple years of ownership. Absolute JUNK!
Tub Cracked Without Using
Would Not RecommendThis item has been sitting in my garage just over a year with little to no use. The tub is badly split in multiple places. Lowes says item is "inactive" and to contact Craftsman. Hindsight being 20/20 I now noticed that there are hundreds of complaints/reviews all with identical issue.
Cheap Plastic Tub, Buyer Beware
Would Not RecommendI received this wheelbarrow for Christmas last year. The metal and two wheels are strong but the plastic tub is horrible. It broke in the middle despite me putting minimal weight on it. Listen to the other reviews. I reached out to customer support but they didn't care since it was out of warranty. DO NOT BUY!
Tray busted just sitting in the garage
Would Not RecommendHad the product for about 1 year. Used it to mix quite a bit of concrete and it did a fine job. Left it in the garage over the winter and came back in the spring and it has a really big crack making it unseable.

Plastic tray cracks within a couple of years
Would Not RecommendThe wheelbarrow is fine until it's been in the sun a couple of years. Even without use, the tray cracks. No replacement parts from Craftsman, and only a one-year warranty. Do not purchase this wheebarrow.
rip off
Would Not Recommendthru a shovel of small gravel and the tub and it split. no replacement available, no money back......poor quality.
Disappointing quality
Would Not RecommendI purchased this wheelbarrow about 3 years ago. I did not feel the need to research the reviews first. After all, we are talking Lowe's and Craftsman. The reputation speaks volumes. My wheelbarrow is used purely as a wheelbarrow. I figured it would be perfect for light jobs around our home. I am one of those people who hoses things down after use, so this has been well cared for, never overloaded and only sees fairly light duty. Unfortunately, caring for it was not enough. The tray has deve...

Absolute Junk - Don't Buy
Would Not RecommendThis wheelbarrow is absolute garbage! I don't know if I'm more disappointed in the actual product, or in Lowes for continuing to carry something so poorly constructed, or in the "Craftsman" brand being applied to such junk! First off, the plastic construction immediately cracked with only moderate loads of materials (light gravel). Not minor cracks, but large ones at the bolted connection to the frame. For the life of me I don't understand who thought a plastic wheelbarrow was a good idea. ...

Cracked
Would Not RecommendOne of the worst wheelbarrows on the market. Bought 5 and only used for mulch. All 5 tubs are crack beyond repair, and few have tires that won't hold air. Should not be allowed to be sold. DO NOT WASTE YOU'RE MONEY.
A Week to get a Wheelbarrow!!!
Would Not RecommendHad to wait over a week to get this wheelbarrow, it was promised in 3 days. The assembly was shabby, the tires were flat and two of the braces had to be aligned properly. I tried to buy this without assembly but was told a wheelbarrow could not be sold unassembled. Very poor experience!

Very poor quality
Would Not RecommendThis wheelbarrow is just awful. The plastic has cracked / broken in several places. Not only around the bolts holding it to the frame but in another place as well. I was shocked to see this happen on a product labeled with Craftsman. I just looked at the website of the manufacturer and it looks like they make some good products but this is not one of them We should be entitled to a refund my previous wheelbarrow lasted 15 years.
Work and fun wheelbarrow
Would RecommendA great brand name that lives to its old good standards. it is large enough yet easy to handle. the fact it has two wheels makes it easy to push and balance.

Cracked, unusable
Would Not RecommendUsed it last year with tires that wouldn't stay full, this year discovered the bucket is cracked at all 4 corners, so cheap
Cracked after one use
Would Not RecommendPurchased this two wheel Craftsman Poly Tray wheelbarrow, used it once. It has been stored in my garage for 12+ months. I went to use it again and discovered that the poly tray is cracking. I have included photos, you can see that this item looks like its never been used. Anyone know how to glue / repair the poly tray?
