Has anyone had success loading up with firewood and pulling it up deck stairs?

Yes! I have used the Polar Utility Cart for hauling firewood and pulling it up the four stairs to the wood rack on my deck. The trick is to not overload the trailer as it will become too heavy and more awkward to maneuver.

Not really. The base feet always end up hitting the next step before the wheels can pop up the prior one so I always have to use ramps

IMO, not really if they are carpet. I use a handheld 18v that has a rolling brush attachment to do my stairs. You could use the handheld hose for hardwood stairs, but it would be awkward.

Try making one of your own. Home depot screw 2x4 together REALLY well by sandwiching a bunch together with the strong side up, you can add risers as you go. Primitive yes, a bit heavy, but if the need is there and you can handle it you can find someone to make if for you. Line the top with stick on abrasive stair tread tape. should cost all of $30. if a friend does it.

Yes, I was able to bring it up a full flight of stairs and it held up beautifully. I was very happy with the purchase.

Amazon never shipped it, but yes it will work both ways which keeps you from having to lift the logs off the ground. I got mine from another place after Amazon dropped the ball.

I have four stone stairs going to my front porch and I've had no problem using it on them. I've never tried it on my deck stairs. They are more narrow and just eaiser to shovel. Hope this helps.

Just put it in the transport position and it will climb up the step with no problem. I keep mine in a shed as well.

I believe it's better, smaller and more cost effective than fat wood. Just break off a cube lean it on some kindling and light the little cube...hold match there for 15 seconds...it will take it from there. I then build another piece of kindling and start adding dry split wood but always leaning it in such a way that plenty of Oxygen can find it way easily. Hope it works for you as it certainly does for me.

It ships disassembled so you could just assemble it on your deck. You may want to have someone help you get the large box up the staircase with you.

I don't have any stairs. But it's a bit awkward, like trying to use an upright vacuum on stairs. It'll get the job done I'm sure if you are patient.

You wouldn't have to, but we did; because we were installing gates at both the top and bottom of a beautiful wooden staircase. We wanted to be sure the wood of the staircase would be completely protectected. The gates and installation kits worked perfectly...even with all hardwood rails on both sides of the gate. I would recommend researching how other folks did the installation, before buying, that's what we did and the advise/insights were really helpful.

we used a power washer (that shredded our deck- sigh) and hands and knees scraping with a metal putty knife-for weeks! No easy way for sure. Hope it goes better for you.

I didn't do it non-stop, but was working on other projects at the same time and avoided really hot times. It could probably be done in half a day. You want a second person available to assist at times. The instructions are really poor, not telling or showing orientation of boards that are not square but orientation does make a difference. Also several boards are so warped I would lay them on a deck with weight on them for a day or two to straighten then out some. Extremely poor quality wood.

I have not used it in this way- I use it to mold and replace victorian decorative woodwork. I suggest going to their website (google product name) or doing a search of YouTube videos for information from people with experience with decks.

It will be able to do this quite easy. My wife fills the cart to overflowing with firewood and has no problem hauling it about. The large soft pneumatic tires make pulling it an easy task. I don't usually hand out praise easily, but here it is deserving. The "other" carts are no way near as well constructed as thing. I would say, can't miss.

Yes, it does but you have to provide the power. If it's too heavy you may have problems pulling it up the stairs.

I do not think you would have any problems pulling the cart up stairs. The cart itself is not that heavy.
