Ratings & Reviews for Marathon 5-cu ft 2 Wheel Poly Push Wheelbarrow

Easy to assemble

The instructions were very well written. The assembly pieces were separately packaged and identified exactly as shown in the instructions...yea! I did need to use a socket wrench (mine) along with the allen wrench (supplied) to assemble the parts, holding the nut stable while using the allen wrench made the assembly faster. It took less than 20 minutes. I did not inflate the tires because I'm only picking up pruning and misc. yard debris.

Great!

I do not like the other styles, requiring two hands, on top of that, they have the piece sticking in front of the tire, when you lift them to high off the ground, it catches on the ground. I got this one, its nice.

Workhorse

We were going to use a neigbbor's wheelbarrow and this one we purchased new to move 10 tons of gravel from the curb into my yard. I quickly set the old wheelbarrow aside. The design of this wheelbarrow quite different from a traditional wheelbarrow: 1) two wheels 2) the weight distributed differently, so you are NOT lifting anything, but only pushing forward the weight. I bought this based on the positive reviews I read on the Lowes web site. I am very pleased with my purchase.

Pain to put together

My wife and i wasted 2 hours putting this wheelbarrow together. Got through all the steps with no problwm until it came to to the last step. The holes would not line up. Dont waste tour time.

Love this Wheelbarrow

this is a great wheelbarrow for my gardening needs. Easy to handle. Much better than a single wheel. I used it to move 1/2 yard of soil/compost mix from my truck to the back yard. Very easy.

wheelbarow- 2 wheels

Love it! It's great for a 73 year old lady like me!!

Tires

The wider tires make the cart easy to maneuver over different terrians.

Great for light weight work. Not good for rocks etc. The plastic barrel is somewhat flimsy.

All purpose wheelbarrel

This little guy is great for many jobs, We use it when planting. It can carry two or three bags of topsoil. Another job is carrying around objects that are too heavy for us to carry. At our lake house we can easily load 3 to 4 garage bags. Unlike a bigger Wheel barrow it is light to lift and you can lift with one hand.

2-wheel wheelbarrow

Absolutely awesome, easy to carry heavy loads as the CG is mostly over the wheels. Plastic tub makes for easy "release" when dumping dirt & sand out.

Small plant scooter

Purchased this right before the Feb 2021 Texas freeze. Ended up using it to help us move tons of small potted plants around the yard, into our garage. Worked very well. Very easy to fill, lift and move. It's by no means a super heavy duty wheelbarrow, but for medium to light weight tasks, it is perfect. Highly recommended. Note: do check the washers and bolts. Some look to have been assembled in a rush and didn't quite seat well, redid them and all is fine.

The perfect size for me!

So here are the beauties of this wheelbarrow: the size is goldi-locks perfect; the barrow is plastic, so I can leave it in the rain sometimes; the geometry is super-maneuverable. I am stronger and more active than the average woman in her mid-70s, and I LOVE to work in my yard!

lightweight and easy to use

Great barrow for those little jobs around the yard. Stable, lightweight and easy to use.

awesome!

rolls evenly, steers easily, well balanced due to 2 wheels, totally buy again!

Works fine

Good design. Had the same wheelbarrow for the last ten years. Replaced one wheel and finally retired it when the metal rusted through. Storing the new one inside in the winter now.

Great size

This is going to be very easy to use moving those things that would be hard to balance with the single wheel.

Great Wheelbarrow, well balanced and easy to use

Great Wheelbarrow, well balanced (two wheels better than one) and easy to use and the price is right. This is Wheelbarrow is not for construction, it is great for backyard projects and I used it to haul sheets of sod back and forth. Also the base is plastic so not as strong as metal but it won't rust which is nice too.

Would be a great cart except for wheel/tire issues

Three flat tires in 8 months, otherwise I would give this cart a 5-star rating. The issue seems to be with the poor construction of the inside of wheels which has sharp metal digging into the tire inner tubes and popping them when loaded. I tried filing/grinding down the sharp edges, but to no avail. It will have to go back. It's too bad as this cart holds a lot and is durable otherwise.
