Has anyone ever taken this to the beach and pushed it ON (in?) the sand?? Curious how well i works in sand. Thanks.

I have and it worked great on the sand near the water but was difficult on the deep loose sand. However, much better than any other stroller- it still pushed through the deep stuff.

It will work as well as a bike through sand... so you can imagine it being a pain...we've never done it and probably won't, but if we did, you would probably need to let some air out of the tires for better traction.

We've taken it to the beach. Dragging it backwards with the front wheel up works best but it's not fun. We had our stroller loaded with all sorts of stuff, however, so maybe it's OK with "only" a child in it. Once you get to the wet compacted sand close to the water everything is fine of course.

Hard packed sand is fine. Ive run a 5k on the beach with ours. If you are in the deeper sand away from the waters edge then you really need to drag it vs push it. I wouldn't recommend trying any long walks thru loose sand unless you really like a tough workout!

I use it indoors, but I wouldn't object to using it outdoors. Like another user said, bringing it to the beach seems like a great idea!

I've never used it at the beach.but the winds we've had here in indiana make it move more.however we don't have a constant wind in one direction like on the beach.

Very good for the beach. We didn't even use the anchors. Just pushed it down in the sand by hand.

We haven't taken it to the beach yet, but use it in the yard quite often!! It is really nice and can't imagine that it wouldn't work well at the beach too. Enjoy!! Just watch those crashing waves!!!

I haven't used it at the beach, but I have used it in really sandy conditions in NM. It's challenging to push through sand, but it's doable. It prob does better than other strollers because the wheels don't pivot, however I wouldn't try to go very far - it'd be exhausting. Wet, packed sand would be fine!

It's ok on sand. I would suggest that you get a wagon with rubber tires if you go to the beach often. We ended up purchasing a beach utility wagon because we didn't feel that this wagon was the greatest at the beach. Otherwise, we love the wagon!

Hi:Yes, I bought it to use it at the beach. I've had it for several month without any problems. I don't like the smaller beach chairs that drops me to the sand. I live in Miami beach and so far, so good.Thanks;IF

I use an auger exactly like this with a cordless drill to set umbrellas in the sand. Even in soft sand where some of the material falls into the hole, it works fine. I drill the hole, insert the umbrella shaft and work it in, and then I pour some water around it to firm put he sand. It works like a charm. I borrowed this idea after seeing the 'beach boy workers" in Florida setting up rental umbrellas using this method.

I've used in on hard sand but don't know about a blow sand situation.....please check my review of the product. I have not yet been able to get the wobble out of the wheels but haven't had much time to try yet

Never tried it on sand. Should be okay on packed sand. Think the bar through wheels would get stuck in soft sand.

I have used it in soft sand and it rolls fine. The only thing you must do is pull it behind you rather than push it.

My husband has never used it on a beach. He's used it in desert, mountains, sagebrush terrain. We use it when camping. He thinks it would be effective in any terrain!

Does not work well in sand. There are other wheeled items I've purchased thru amazon that are made specifically for sand that work well.

I am not sure about a beach, I do know the cart is fantastic. Whenever I go out with it, several people always ask, where did you get that?! It is extremely sturdy with lots of room. I am not sure how it would do on beach sand though. Probably very well with a little extra effort. You may have to actually share the carry burden with your beach buddy to get to that perfect beach lounging spot. But on all other surfaces? It's fantastic. Cannot go wrong with this cart. I did have one problem when I ordered, it was delivered missing 2 small pieces of hardware. Sandusky overnighted them to me and it was super easy to put together.
