Greenworks 40V Power Cart

Purchased this 40 volt wheel barrel this summer for my deck project . The main concern for me was to haul gravel from the curb at the front yard to an inaccessible back yard due to my villa backing onto the town canal . In addition to hauling the full length of the house - I was faced with cutting through neighboring yards as the access gate to the canal was not set in my own back yard . This meant having to go through 2 different gates over a hilly terrain . With a conventional wheel barrel - this hauling of gravel would have been back breaking work . Way beyond my expectations - the 40 volt cart powered through everything I threw at it and more , I made 15 full loads of gravel on different days during the build and the battery life was outstanding each time . Only used up one bar out of four each time . The charger did a great job when required although I could have just left the battery uncharged . This cart is strong and stable , very good build , brakes work as they should and I love the fact that the barrel tilts with ease for unloading the gravel . I ordered this cart straight through Green Works , it was delivered to my front door . Incredible machine and money well spent .Thank you for the wonderful product - Highly recommended to buy !

I bought this unit 2 years ago. I use it at the cottage and I have steep slopes. An excellent product. Very solid, rust proof and powerful, I use it to transport gravel, sand, bricks, concrete, wood, and it has a dumper. Has 2 forward and reverse speeds and a brake. No effort, it is like having a litlle truck. No issue with the battery, do not even need to have a pare one, the secret is to remove it when you are finished. After 6 months there is no drop of energy. I have a suggestion to improve the product, sometimes pebbles stuck the rear wheel, it is not a big problem but I guess you should know. Overall it is a real great product. I highly recommend this product and I'm sure if you try it you will rapidly see that it is a breakthrough and you will probably get rid of all your old wheelbarrows.

1. Even while stored in the garage, with the main switch in the OFF position, this machine would completely drain a fully charged battery in 3-4 days. Contacted GreenWorks who provided an authorization number to return it to Canadian Tire in exchange for another unit. Second one had the same problem. 2. Tried using it while cleaning up the yard last fall but driving over wet leaves allows the single rear swivel wheel to pick up wet leaves and quickly jam the wheel's rotation. When this happens it's as if the rear wheel brake is on and the front wheels just spin. You have to stop every few metres to clear the rear wheel of jammed leaves. 3. Ground clearance of the drive motor and differential is only a few inches, making it very difficult to maneuver on uneven ground. It's hopeless in soft soil as in a tilled garden. Would be good on a perfectly flat, preferably paved surface. Was really looking forward to using this wheelbarrow but it had too many problems, second unit was returned also.
