    I work for a John Deere dealership as a parts man. We just put one of this together this morning. Really good trailers. Think you’re gonna enjoy it.

      I have used it a bunch so far and it is way better than the only crappy one it is replacing.

    I have a "JakMax" trailer (aussie brand, poly tub).
    It came originally with a flimsy folding hitch & 3rd wheel that turned it into a big wheelbarrow.
    Ended up making a proper 3mm drawbar for it, and added an ammo box to hold tools & snakebite kit, also added tie down points to make it more usable; this Deere one looks far sturdier than my $250 thing I had to modify

      I've been very happy with it. Loaded 30 bags of mulch on it and it didn't flex at all.

      It would have been very tricky to do with just one person. I am impressed with the quality of it.

    When is rest time for you ? Seems like you are always into some big project but I know working on a farm you are always working. I have put in lots of hay and cut plenty of tobacco so life on the farm rest is sometimes hard to find.

      Wow. You nailed it. Truth is I'm burning out. I can't keep up with all my work here plus the two other jobs I have.
      I think I'll have to make some tough calls later on this year. Age is catching up with me.

    You really aren't comparing apples to apples with a metal cart against a poly. I have had a 10-cu ft Blue Hawk poly dump cart that came with the purchase of a Husqvarna riding mower in 2012 and it is still going strong with no issues. Definitely not junk.

    • @FarpointFarms

      I really have to disagree. I've owned some generic metal carts that lasted 20 years with little issues. But the Blue Hawk 17-cu ft is the biggest turd I've bought. That thing is flimsy and the great features turned out to be it's biggest negatives. Never again will I get burned by those guys. Heck, I made two videos on the flaws of that cart.

      I guess this is a prime example of how experiences mold the views one holds. You had a bad experience and have wrote them off while I have a product that has performed well. As they say, your mileage may vary.
