How are the wheels? I had the plastic wheels of a cart split while going over a curb. Will these wheels withstand curbs, steps, without breaking?

we have carried large amounts of drinks, groceries and luggage and have not had a problem.

The wheels seem to be of sturdy hard plastic. I've drug it down steps fully loaded and it was fine.

HORRIBLE. The entire cart is horrible. It broke the first time we used it & the seller refused to reimburse us. Amazon only would help if we paid to have the cart sent back. It broke while we were out and I think we just threw the damned thing in the trash. A total complete MISTAKE. I think I reviewed it as garbage. Do NOT buy.

When I put mine on I just pushed until they clicked in place, as the instructions said. Maybe that locks them in. They have held up and I have definitely put a lot of weight on them every time. I use it for groceries and really stock it full. Plus, the sidewalks around here are terrible - typical crumbling infrastructure, and, about 2 weeks ago now a main street was ripped up and still has not been paved over. I have to cross that twice on every trip and try to find a part with the least amount of stones to spare the wheels! Who knows how long the street will be like that too. So the wheels have stood up to heavy city punishment. When I put mine on I just pushed until they clicked in place, as the instructions said. Maybe that locks them in.

Hi, the wheels are a firm rubber. I have pushed it over grass and gravel and cracked pavement with no problem. The front wheels are fine as long as you put them in correctly. If they don't "click" when you push them in, you have them backwards and they will fall off. I love this for so many reasons. It's great when my little Yorkie gets tired of walking or over heated or it starts to rain. It has space for my phone, water, jacket, wallet. All nice and secure.

"I am looking to use this to wheel items to and from a car . . . Why do y think the wheels will hold up?" I don't know about the wheels holding up, I pushed this cart with about 10 lbs of stuff on it and since it was a smooth floor, nothing fell down and it was easy to push. If the area between your car and where you're loading the stuff from has small rocks/gravel, then I don't think there'll be stable enough to support the cart and it will tip over.

They are hard plastic. Cant say yet how they hold up outside since we bought this around Christmastime and any one in the midwest will tell you there was no playing outside here yet! They've been using these type wheels on Little Tikes wagons and play cars for years and seem to hold up ok. I can say that we really like this wagon.

I have never tried to push it only pull it aside from maybe tring to get it on the bus. But it does roll very well. I have over loaded this cart with 200 dollars worth of grocerys then pulled it over rocks and rough dirt down a trail to my house. I did this all the time and it has held up very well even through snow.This is a strong cart and the wheels are the best part better than any other cart I have had. Most cart wheels cant stand up to my abuse but these do. The time one did fall off it was easy to just put it back on and lock it back in place didnt just fall apart like those old metal shopping carts.

The wheels are hard plastic, but it doesn't bother me. The cart is very sturdy, especially compared to the cheap all-plastic shopping carts out there. My son pushes it around the tile floor as well as on carpeting... No issues with the wheels. I didn't even know they were once made with rubber.

The wheels are pretty good. I haven't had any issues with them. To me, they seem quite sturdy.

The wheels are thin but sturdy. They are made of rubber. So far, they still roll straight, and that's after 4 months of heavy use.

The wheels are plastic but they seem to be made of a sturdy material. The wheels on the back are wide, designed for beach use, they are def not flimsy. We loaded the cart heavy and had no problems. I just showed it to my sister in-law and she loves it. She is planning to purchase one for her next family vacation as well.

The wheels on my cart broke after only 7 months. We only use it to hold our small portable dishwasher that weighs roughly 50 lbs. The wheels themselves are sturdy but the plastic anchors holding them into the cart broke.

They feel durable to me, I've used a bunch of them for moving a couple months ago and had no problems with any breaking (even with more load in them then was strictly reasonable). The plastic is a little flexible, so I doubt they are going to crack unless they stiffen substantially over time. I've not owned them for years yet, so can't conclusively say though.

The wheels are plastic. I've had the stroller for about 14 months and walk about two miles each day. The wheels are in great shape. Also, my neighbor has had a Petzip stroller for about 5 years. The wheels are in good shape...they don't look any more worn than mine. I recommend this stroller. It's easy to handle, folds down for ease of transport in the car, turns easily and the canvas/cloth wears well.

They are good wheels, suitable for the purpose. I too walk several miles/wk, and find them good. They are not skateboard quality,( which are my preference), but for a buggy with 100 lbs or less, on cement sidewalks they seem tbe durable. If you are on gravel or uneven dirt roads, it may not be enough.But the buggy is great, in general and much better and more useful than the cheaper wire baskets I have used. Ive had mine, used regularly for several months, and I find little to complain about. ( b/c the wheels swivel easily, and the sidewalks in my neighborhood, tilt for runoff, they tend to follow the tilt. Only complaint I have. They are good wheels, suitable for the purpose.

I do it all the time. Just pull it up slowly (from behind). Only time I have broken wheels was when I was trying to push it up onto a curb, and accidentally stepped on the wheels while I was pushing it.These are very durable carts. I've had the metal carts, and they are not only much harder to use, their wheels break easily.Just my experience. But I have bought 7 or 8 (given several away) and they are way bettter than metal carts, in my opinion.

Wheels are a hard rubber. I would have prefered air filled but they work. I had no issues with the cart I bought other than a small flat spot on one of the tires most likely from when it was poured. Spokes on the tires are pretty firm also. It was worth the money. Hope this helps.

The back (larger) wheels are quite sturdy. They are steel wheels with rubber rims. They are mounted on a single 1/4" steel axle that passes through the whole cart. I generally move the cart by lifting the front wheels off the floor and pushing or pulling the cart to its new location. No issues in either direction.
