I wanted to post this because reading through some of the other responses, it seems like there may be a newer model of this wagon.\n\nThere were some complaints about the short handle. This model has a lock on the handle rod that allows it to telescope to different lengths. See video.\n\nAlso, it was posted that all four wheels moved from side to side on this model but it appears that with this one the back wheels are locked and the front ones move. See video.\n\nStorage: several others have commented that the only way to store this is resting on its side. Because of the way that the wheels work now, I am able to adjust the front wheels to get it to stay up against the wall. See the picture attached.\n\nQuick test in the garage and it seems to be working pretty well. I'll try to update this with future usage."}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on September 26, 2017', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': ' Love this wagon. We have a rescued pitbull. He had been through many hurtful events . He struggles to walk long distance with the rest of our pack. He loves his wagon, and thinks while in his wagon he gets excited to be able to keep up with his brothers. Our pitbull is a therapy dog we take in his wagon.'}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on November 26, 2017', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': ' So, I read so many comments saying that it is not for the beach. I believe that it really depends on the KIND of beach you want to go to. As you can see in the video, I really loaded the cart and it was just on Treasure Island beach in Florida. It is true that the beach there has more shells and is more compact. But I\'ve been using this cart without any problems with all my fishing gear.\nJust to be fair, I assume that on a beach with "fluffy" deep sand you may have some problems. But I\'m already working on some ideas on how to make some thick cheap wheel covers in case I come across this problem.\nPROS:\n- the folding part is absolutely great - it fits in a quarter of my 2004 Ford Taurus trunk\n- the capacity is perfect for my fishing needs\n- it is sturdy, reliable and practical\n- very easy to fold and unfold\n- the frame is perfect for attaching PVC pipes for rod holders\n- it has two useful water bottle pockets (I use them for my shoes, though...)\n- not too light to be flimsy but not too heavy\n- materials are good and strong\n- price is a fraction of the price for a fishing cart\nCONS:\n- wheels could be thicker for beaches with deep sand (haven\'t tried yet but it looks like they are too thin for that kind of beach)\n- it doesn\'t have a remote - just kidding:)\nAll in all, may the engineer who invented this be blessed :) It saved me many trips to the car and I can change spots on the beach really easily!\nShould anything change in time, I\'ll make sure to post an update.\n\nUPDATE: Shortly after writing this review, we decided to go fishing in an area that has very deep sand. In preparation for that, I considered making some wheel covers, which is impossible, because the wheels are closed in by the wheel support. I ended up returning this cart and getting one just like it, but with huge wheels for sand, also on Amazon and, unfortunately, $30 more expensive. Oh, well...\n\nFINAL UPDATE, 1 year later: I ended up, after 2 weeks of testing, getting a Walmart cart that has wheels roughly twice the thickness of this one. It is the most common one at Walmart (Ozark trail - $50-ish) and I\'ve been using it for a year now. That Walmart one has two cons - 1. in very deep sand you will struggle. There is no cart with "regular" wheels that will perform well in deep sand. You need one with jumbo wheels but the one that I have was fine for the 400 yards I needed to go. If you need to go down the beach, just choose the shortest path to the wet sand near water and it goes just fine there, parallel to the water. 2nd problem - the handle is way too short, which makes it: a. difficult to drag and b. wheel keep hitting your heels. Solution - I cut the handle in half and extended it with a small curtain pipe by 10 inches. Works great now.'}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on September 15, 2018', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': " Ripley and I love our Mac Sports Wagon and cannot recommend it enough. Ripley is the sole rescue survivor of a 21-dog dog fighting case in Virginia. She was poorly bred and has always had issues walking. She has an autoimmune disease that deteriorates her joints so she can usually only walk short distances without having to stop. This wagon has opened up new worlds of adventure for her and let her explore the great outdoors. We have since moved to New Jersey and have enjoyed exploring parks and trails with the wagon. She was nervous at first but I wheeled her around the living room for a few days until she got comfortable. Now she is happy to ride. Sometimes we stop and she gets out and walks for a bit and then we load up and head on our adventure. Great product and we're very appreciative for it!"}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on March 22, 2017', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-3 review-rating', 'review_body': 'Love this thing. It\'s durable, holds a lot, and is easy to roll. I live a few blocks from Times Square, NYC. There are about a billion people walking around at any given time. I took this thing and returned a 42" TV to Best Buy on 5th Ave. right through 43rd St. I almost ran over a few Elmos, the Cookie Monster, Batman, fake minions and Chewbacca, but they all got out of the way for me and my little blue Wagon with a TV in it. I even walked back through Times Square with my new TV from Best Buy, and the wagon endured all the potholes, bings, bangs, and run-ins with the variety of moving creatures in Times Square. It\'s a fantastic little Wagon with easy manoeuvrability. Rolls fast too...\n\n11/2019 - after light use for the last 3 years (about 4x/year) I had to carry two trips carrying 6 bankers boxes of files across 7 city blocks (about 1.25 miles). The boxes weighed about 15 pounds each, and it wasn’t too heavy. I noticed the front wheels started bending out of alignment when I made a sharp turn. After the trip. I realized that the front wheel braces were giving in and coming off the weld. The wagon is now history and officially didn’t stand the test of NYC’s bumpy and disgusting streets. I expected it to last a few more years but I think the reason For its short life may have been that I had to often pull the wagon around folded, and the front wheels were not maneuverable in that position. Possibly a design flaw, but not sure. Anyway, NYC won.'}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on April 21, 2019', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': "Out of thousands of things I've bought on Amazon, this wagon, and this wagon alone, makes me wish I could give out six stars.\n\nI've been using it almost a year, and in that time, I've transported maybe 2-3 tons with it total. It's been banged around on DIY home renovation sites, Manhattan streets, and unpaved roads. It's sharp and smooth to move around crowded pedestrian traffic, inside store aisles, and so on.\n\nMost importantly, it has an insane carry capacity while remaining smooth. I regularly use it to transport bags of concrete (no car, see Manhattan), sand, drywall, and smaller panels/beams of lumber. The listed capacity is 150lbs, but most days I have at least 3-4 80lb bags on it. Not recommended to go against the instructions, of course, but it's been made fifty or more trips without any issues.\n\nIt's regularly been in environments with masonry dust and notoriously gunky drywall dust, and is still in A+ condition with minimal maintenance.\n\nCan't really express more how awesome this wagon is. Hands down beats any other wagon I've ever used. Not sure how this thing actually works, but it seems charmed."}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on July 7, 2018', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-1 review-rating', 'review_body': 'I ordered the wagon on 7/1, it came 7/7. I immediately noticed how incredibly light the product felt. It is not heavy duty construction or stable at all..it is wobbly and wheels are not easy to direct and it is also a lot smaller than a Macwagon should be. It definitely seems collapsible as in will break while in use. It did come in a Macwagon box but it is NOT an authentic Macwagon. I have used a friend’s Macwagon on numerous occasions which lead me to purchase my own. The carrying case does not have the logo. I will definitely be sending this back. I am so disappointed in this product!!!'}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on June 22, 2017', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': "Best purchase I've made in a while! Love the size and color and it literally took me 30 seconds to take it out of the shipping box, out of its case, and set up ready to roll. If you don't count taking it out of the packaging, set up time is maybe 5-6 seconds. It holds everything we need for the beach. I love the feature of the cup holders in the front, and the bottom/seat area is comfy enough for my daughter to sit in. The handle couldn't be easier to pull up and out, lock/unlock, and put down and away. It steers nicely as well. It's also very easy to close and put back in it's case unlike most tents, pack n plays, hammocks, etc...\n\nIf you're in the market for a wagon, I literally couldn't recommend this one more.\n\nWill update review later for wear and tear/ease of continued usage.\n\nUpdate: after one month of use, no major complaints, still very satisfied. So easy to use, load and unload, and pull around. Only thing I would change: I wish it had some type of brake for the wheels."}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on September 6, 2019', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': 'I bought this for my senior collie who has been getting increasingly weak in the back legs due to age and arthritis and is having a really hard time even on short walks. He is 75lbs for reference and just fits in the cart. I bring it with me on walks and if he becomes too tired to walk I lift him up and put him in. It rolls very well even with his weight in it. It is very maneuverable when expanded but not when folded, which is my only complaint. If it is folded and I try to pull it behind me like luggage, one set of wheels stays straight but the front weeks that turn move and create drag. It is a bit easier to push it in front of you folded but kind of ackward. So plan on rolling it expanded. Otherwise it appears durable and I have been able to roll it over some pretty uneven ground fairly easily.'}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on August 26, 2021', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': 'My German Shepherd wagon.
