Vital plastic insert missing meaning clamp cannot tighten on upright. Cant see how this trolley could possibly fit into the luggage net of wavesport scooter. Returned for refund

This is a really tough trolley. It is steel so heavier than the aluminium ones. However it needs to be for me because I have a tandem sit on top so fairly heavy. Over rough uneven ground and for about 200m it performed very well didn't move once the arms were set. The clamps for the adjustable posts are very good not like the plastic ones on the alu trolleys. When paddling I took the wheels off and the whole thing went into the rear storage with the bungees over without needing to move the arms. Probably more because the holes are only about 20cm apart on my kayak tho. Only marked down here because the rubber bungs that go in the end of the poles fall out easily. Two fell out the first time I tried the trolley in the garage. However I just glued them in. Also one of the spring clips that hold the wheels on went a bit loose not sure why so I was worried it would come out and get lost. However, once I bent it back and forwards it rectified itself. So I'll keep an eye on that. Still though after gluing in the bungs it's still worth it if you have a big kayak like mine. You can always get.othernpins to secure the wheels too.

I’ve had covid since the trolley arrived and have not used it. However it looks well made. At least by posting this, the company that supplied it might stop emailing me for a review.

Am using this with an Scooter sit on kayak. Pretty impressed so far after a few uses. My expectations weren’t high admittedly, I would have been happy had it worked just on firm level ground to get the kayak from the car park down to water but it has proved itself a little better than that. First it is fairly easy to assemble though some instructions would have been useful. Sounding a bit dumb maybe, but I thought it was a case of really bad design when the wheel pins kept falling out when I was first trying this in the drive, until I realised they were supposed to fold over to lock themselves! Similarly my friend told me I had the trolley prongs the wrong way up in the scupper holes, which was why the trolley was rocking about a bit as it wasn’t resting on the rubber supports! Well, if you’ve never done this before how would you know? My first outing with this was down to a local beach and after a fairly smooth start from a rough car park, we were soon trying to cross some rough rocks about the size of loaves of bread and, expecting the worst, this trolley actually coped with it admirably. It tipped a couple of times but anything would have, as you can’t overcome the laws of physics. I similarly used it on a beach with fairly soft, deep sand and it worked - hard going admittedly but less than trying to carry it. On a soft sand beach you would be better off with balloon wheels or some of the compressible track type wheels, but these things can do it just. The trolley sits in the back of your car either by taking it apart or just leaving it up as it doesn’t take up too much space. I was also able to dismantle it and get it strapped under the net in the back of the kayak, which answers that problem of what do you do with the wheels after you’ve got to the water. So, not perfect but well worth buying rather than damaging your back.

we have 10ft sit on kayaks the trolley is sooo much easier than carrying the kayak from the car to the lake it took a while to figure out what the conical rubber bungs on the legs that go through the kayak are for - eventually figured out they fit onto the legs when you have pushed them through the boat to keep the trolley in place while you flip the kayak over (at least that's what seems to work well!) best place to 'plug' it in is near the centre to minimise the weight you carry it also disassembles very easily for storage at the back of the kayak under the bungee cords on our Tootega Kintetic well pleased with the service, including next day delivery!!!
