| Review: | This cart is vital to me in my kayaking. I easily load my Pungo 140 and trek the 1/4 mile down to the lake that I use. I break it down and stow it on the kayak and when done I reconfigure it to make the trek back up the hill. Never had a problem and I get many positve comments on its handiness from others. A+ product. | ||

| Review: | I give this sturdy little kayak cart a 4 due to the short valve stems, otherwise, this is a great cart. I just set it out, lift the tail of my Tarpon 100 and slide the boat onto it. I don't use the straps, but ordered a pair of Garb-on straps for it--much quicker and easier to secure the kayak onto the cart. The cart also folds up easily and drops neatly into the back of my Tarpon so it's always handy. Does well on rocky, uneven ground too. I'd recommend it to anyone looking for a solid, sturdy kayak cart. | ||

| Review: | I have only used it once and am very pleased. My kayak is a 16 1/2' sea kayak and it traveled well on the cart | ||

| Review: | I ordered this cart with the Tarpon 10 package last spring.One wheel had to be replaced due to a failed bearing.I have had difficulty getting the kayak on the cart by myself, but once on, balanced, and strapped down, it allows you to tow with one finger. Having someone hold the cart while loading in almost a must, particularly on sloping boat ramps. If anyone has loading tips with this cart, I would be glad to receive them. | ||

| Review: | This cart performs as advertised under both a one man sit on top and a tandem kayak. The pneumatic tires are plastic and not rubber, however; and, the valve stems are a bit short and sit close in the wheel rim. For the price, it is a handy small boat accessory. | ||

| Review: | Good quality and works well when kayak is strapped on. It needs to have a locking arm to keep it from collapsing when laying the kayak on it. Without the arm it requires two people. One for the kayak and one to hold the cart open. | ||

| Review: | I love the service and attention I got at the store, along with this great cart. Sure it's not the largest cart, but that is what makes it so nice. It easily packs in my kayak and doesn't get in the way. It is stable, very durable and the price makes this a great value! | ||

| Review: | Great product! Really takes the ease of toting my yak around. | ||
| Reviewer: | Tim | Rating: 3 | Date: 04/02/2011 |
| Review: | I like the product, it works well once its secured. But getting the boat secured in a lesson in patience and maybe a little engineering. I've not tried the bungee cord method other reviewers having mentioned, but the straps do not work well. I cannot get them tight enough to hold my 12' WS Pamlico. The cart tends to shift (or rather the boat) and becomes a bear to handle. I've resorted to using ratchet straps - takes more time but I get the boat secure. I may have to try the bungee cord. | ||

| Review: | I USE THE CART TO TRANSPORT MY SUP BOARD. IT WORKS WELL ON LAND AS WELL AS IN SAND. I RECOMMEND THIS CART BECAUSE IT IS EASY TO USE AS WELL AS EASY TO DISASSEMBLE AND STORE. | ||

| Review: | Easy to assemble once I got a little help on phone from ACK. So far it has made moving my kayak much easier. | ||
| Reviewer: | Holmes | Rating: 2 | Date: 10/03/2010 |
| Review: | I have not tried this out, but I did receive in good order with exception that one tire is very low and it requires a hand pump to air it up; which I do not have. Tires should have come ready to use and included a pump. I have read other reviews that the tires deflate easily. I also requested a suggestion as to which cart to purchase for rough terrain. According to the description, this may not be the best choice. I am somewhat disappointed but do not want to mess with the return and the pricing was fair. ACK however is very good to do business with and I have already made additional purchases. | ||

| Review: | Easy to assemble. Easy to haul on boat. Easy to steer. Everyone that sees it wants one for their boat. Our boat is 17ft long & 80#'s, well over 2feet wide at center with spontans. Easy strap on. | ||

| Review: | I couldn't get the straps to function easily, so I replaced the straps with bungee cords and those work great- I crisscross them over my kayak. I still can't get my kayak onto it without help from another person. I'm having a hard time finding a replacement tube for one of the tires- otherwise I like it, it serves the purpose I need it for. | ||

| Review: | This cart is totally unsatisfactory. Just try to position it under the kayak without it slipping away before you can strap it down!! Not recommended unless you have an extra pair of hands to help you load it...And to put air in the tires with a hand pump (as it recommends) the stems are too short for hand pump to make connection. | ||

| Review: | Works very well .. Light, easy to use , folds up nice ... The straps hold the Kayak in place great .. built well ...I would buy it again Works well on the beach ( sand ) My Kayak is 17'8" 43 lbs | ||

| Reviewer: | George B. | Rating: 5 | Date: 07/07/2010 |
| Review: | Good cart for the money. Easy to assemble, lightweight and comes with straps thereby making it extremely versatile. Good for most kayaks and canoes. Might not be best choice for very heavy craft since the frame also serves as the axle. Highly recommended in general. | ||
| Reviewer: | jama | Rating: 4 | Date: 06/26/2010 |
| Review: | i like the kayak cart very much. As i get older my kayak seems to get heavier and these wheels makes it much easier to get my kayak from the storage across the lawn to the shore. i do think the straps are much longer than necessary but I make it work. | ||

| Reviewer: | Jaime | Rating: 4 | Date: 05/29/2010 |
| Review: | A very nice product, both light and strong. I am using it to transport a 17 foot kayak to beach and it serves the purpose very well. | ||
| Reviewer: | davev | Rating: 5 | Date: 05/15/2010 |
| Review: | Works well and fits my Malibu 2 XL. Breaks down easily to fit in kayak through oval Gaspachi Hatch. I have expectations that it will also work well in sand. | ||

| Review: | The Seattle Sports Deluxe Kayak Cart works fine. Replaced straps with bungees for ease of use. Unbelievably maneuverable and easy to load and unload. | ||
| Reviewer: | PNWkayak | Rating: 3 | Date: 11/14/2009 |
| Review: | This cart has some good features, for example, it stands up by itself. It just doesn't work well with the Hobie. It would be nice to have straps attached to the frame with velcro or something for easy on and off. Otherwise the cart seems to be of good quality including the wheels. It just doesn't work well for my purpose. | ||

| Review: | The Seattle Sports Deluxe Kayak Cart is more than I expected. Very easy to load. Haven't used it on sand, but on paved surfaces it works great. Looks durable. I'm using it on an OK Scrambler XT | ||
| Reviewer: | CB | Rating: 4 | Date: 09/20/2009 |
| Review: | Great product... very friendly design that works well on varied terrain. I use bungee straps instead of the one provided with the cart. I go up and down a hill below our house over rocks and debris from trees and it works great. I'm not sure others would have been so easy and the kick stand allows me to load the kayak and unload at the waters edge. | ||
| Reviewer: | BobM | Rating: 5 | Date: 08/06/2009 |
| Review: | With the Seattle Sports Deluxe Kayak Cart I can move my 100+lb. homemade kayak with ease. With the cart placed a little aft of center very little effort is required to lift and move it. With the cart placed further aft I am able to load the kayak on top of my car, using a home made kayak loader, with very little effort. | ||
| Reviewer: | mpiercey | Rating: 3 | Date: 07/30/2009 |
| Review: | Although great quality it doesn't work well for my Wilderness Ride 135. It tends to slip down the kayak when mounting to it. It works good if you have two people to manage it. | ||
| Reviewer: | Mel Downs | Rating: 4 | Date: 07/30/2009 |
| Review: | I recently used the cart to take my 21'/95# Seda kayak down a steep, 1/4 mile dirt trial to the lake at Van Meter State Park in MO. It worked very well. I love it. | ||
| Reviewer: | Wyatt | Rating: 5 | Date: 06/18/2009 |
| Review: | The cart worked great. It was a little tricky putting the kayak on the cart but once on it worked very well. The kayak wants to slid off the cart until you put on the first strap. | ||
| Reviewer: | Fishead | Rating: 5 | Date: 05/04/2009 |
| Review: | Excellent cart but should be offered w/ "off-road" wheel-tire combo (which IS made) | ||
| Reviewer: | mfish | Rating: 5 | Date: 02/27/2009 |
| Review: | The cart needed a new bearing in order to assemble, which Austin Kayak sent immediately. The cart is good quality, easy to use and I am glad we chose it over cheaper models. Good product. | ||
| Reviewer: | john g | Rating: 4 | Date: 07/24/2008 |
| Review: | Cart really worked well until collapsed on the first use. Seattle Sports tried but didn't understand problem. Austin Kayak corrected the the problem at no charge, on one phone call. Thanks | ||

| Review: | This cart is great! The first time I used it, I had a pretty good hike down a wooded path and it was unbelievably smooth! It's easy to load and extremely easy to break down for storage in the kayak. | ||
| Reviewer: | Anna | Rating: 4 | Date: 06/30/2008 |
| Review: | It makes life so much easier! My only concern is that the pins holding on the wheels are a little cheap. I once found one of the pins on the ground after loading my boat. I must have knocked it loose in the loading process. | ||

| Reviewer: | David | Rating: 4 | Date: 01/03/2008 |
| Review: | I use it to help transport my rowing shell from my car down a steep hill to the water. I really like that it is light enough that it adds very little to the overall weight of the boat. It does tend to migrate towards the stern somewhat. | ||
