Handcart Fun trailer Long with rear axle steering of Eckla (Toys)

Customer Review

The advantages of Bollerwagens were illuminated in detail already in other reviews. We are very pleased with the wagon, but I want to give a few hints, some of which are still missing in the other reviews.

We have the long trailer with rear axle steering and with an additional hand and parking brake (optional, can be retrofitted) done. Overall, we are very satisfied. The construction was completed in 30 minutes - even by me (female). Although the instructions could be better (IKEA instructions I find clearly sensual feeling than Eckla instructions), but I've hammer out error-free ...

To use in everyday life - paper taken away, ride beverage crates, etc. the wagon is prima suitable. Also at the lake to transport the parasol we like to use it. However, at the embankment he tilts slightly by time. In the supermarket you come without rank to each curve, that's really great. Also serpentine driveways with approximately 90-100cm wide paths (200cm turning circle on the curves) can drive without rank (applies to the model with rear-axle).

The wheels have plastic wheels, which are placed over the axes. The axes are simply metal tubes. It runs plastic around a metal pipe, there is no ball bearings, the wagon is nevertheless pleasantly smooth.

He has also comfortably fit into your holiday luggage, so we could take him to the North Sea. Unfortunately, he has suffered much there. Then I go now - in addition to a few other little problems - a closer.

1) On the beach it can not be avoided, that sand in the wagon arrives (on towels, bathing suits, etc.). This then slips between the base plate and side panels, and driving the sand acts like sandpaper. Unfortunately, therefore, is now our base plate at the points on which stood the side panels, aufgeschmirgelt. In a handcart with fixed side that would of course can not happen - but adjusts the then not in the car. Tip: Ask before taping with masking tape, and removed again after the holiday the Tesakrepp. We have indeed can not try it for yourself, but at the next holiday I would make it so! The best take the crepe roll with you on holiday, and regularly check that the crepe band not chafing to wood. If necessary, reinforce the joints.

2) Unfortunately, also reaches sand between the axle and the wheels on the sandy beach. As you drag the sands on both the plastic of the wheels, as well as the paint from the metal pipes. Now we see bare metal (danger of rust!), And the hub of the wheels are angeschmirgelt inside. So I did not expect, after a little beach vacation now has the previously despite several trips almost as good as new, just 2 months old carts very clear signs of wear. One should therefore think carefully about whether you want to take the carts with the sand. Despite the Abschmirgelungen in the hub area, the carts can still draw well. However, I do not know how I would resolve this issue at the next holiday. It would be important to clean wheel and axle embarrassing when one of the carts in the soft sand falls on the Draw (what happened to us 2x). Perhaps the axes were still in order.

3) on soft sand is the carts very bad move, the rear axle is also happy to cross (through hollows in the sand), you might as well try to pull through the sand a tub without wheels, which would also not difficult .. However, on wet sand it rolls very good! Once the wheels incline because of soft sand, the carts tipping pretty easy to, so be careful, because dirt on the axes you should absolutely avoid (see above).

4) The wagon with rear axle steering can be worse than the carts moving over thresholds without rear axle. Namely runs for the rear axle with a maximum 9cm clearance a rod from the front axle to the rear axle. The wagon without rear axle has min. 25cm clearance. Due to the small clearance remains one hanging on lighter sleepers, and then the paint comes from the metal rod from - risk of rusting.

5) Whether sand or other ground when an underground identifies potholes or similar, it remains for the rear-often times depend. The rear axle then arises, cross, which leads to the fact that the Front would jackknife, and once blocked everything.

6) Unfortunately, the drawbar can not break away from the front, so that there is a part of the transport, which is a bit bulkier than it should be. We also adjust the length of the drawbar has not reliably maintained, ie the tiller was occasionally in Zeihen in the sand (with a lot of power) suddenly longer. However, contrary to other reviews the tiller can not completely slip out.

7) The stinking wheels have been described by others. I have to say I smell something if I go off with the nose, and thought that has been improved. As others then noticed horrified in the room where stood the freshly assembled carts, it would terribly smelly (some cigarette smoke while I react very sensitive to other odors) was becoming clear to us that I obviously do not perceive these rubber smell while other very extreme smell the smell and feel very uncomfortable. I can well imagine that inhaling the fumes is harmful, so you should for the wagon (or at least for its wheels) find a place in the shed or garage.

All in all processed prima the carts, and we are pleased that we have him. Still, I would have the following suggestions to Eckla:

1) Delivery incl. A durable "cushion tape" which is bonded to the base plate below the side panels. This will reduce the noise and avoid the wear by sand. The tape is once adhered, looks visually good, and then sticks permanently to the base plate. If you like, you may also omit.

2) shaft with a cotter pin mount, which is secured by a clamping ring. So the tongue would be removed, and would be even better fit into your holiday luggage. The current solution with a self-locking nut I think is impractical.

3) length adjustment of the drawbar with mounting holes. The existing wave screening prevents any unwanted length adjustment of the drawbar with strong forces.

4) The moving parts of the wheels should be encapsulated sand firmly. A corresponding wheel or ball bearings could be installed in the wheel, then you put the movable bearing hub of the wheel on the axle, and combines a small out-standing from the wheel pipe section fixed to the axis of Bollerwagens. So the unencapsulated compounds would no moving parts and have a significantly lower wear, and the wheel could be stored securely sand.

5) One way to determine the rear axle would be great! Because in my opinion, the rear axle is more suitable for largely flat surfaces. Whoever wants to use the terrain to carts times so is not happy and should have the possibility of a rear-determination.

6) tires, which is not harmful to health, so you can store the carts in an apartment. Disassembled it takes so very little space!
