I want to know if the wheels and axels will hold up on rough surfaces. Sidewalk cracks, paving stones, and occasionally short distances on unpaved gravel walkways. Is their any warranty on the parts?

If you pull the cart and tilt it up on the back wheels it handles rough surfaces just fine, even gravel.

sidewalks yes, gravel no. I don't think there is a warranty. I would look for a heavy duty cart, this one is not as good as I like it to be.

I don't know about warrenty but if it is not overloaded, they work great. I have used it on grass gravel and sidewalks with no problems

I used it to across my back yard which is kind of rough - and it did fine. My sidewalks are a little rough (river rock) and it was fine on that as well. A little hard to push in the grass but that might have been due to my lack of strength at the time.

I have taken the stroller on a gravel track and it wasn't the smoothest ride but works. Works well on uneven pavement like if you have to go over bumps or cracks in the pavement.

I don't know about granite.i took it in the yard on the grass, it wasn't absolute smooth ride but I got where I wanted to go. Sidewalks were fine. The switch for the turning rAdius is a must have on this. I was very pleases.

I roll it across my grass backyard all the time. The only issue is the solid wheels, stuff can bounce out of the tray. I'm not sure how it would be on a gravel driveway. The wheels might sink in depending on the weight it is carrying.

We've used ours on our driveway/sidewalks and not had any trouble. If you have hardwood floors, just be sure to wipe off the wheels bc any grains/dirt that embeds in the rubber wheels tends to scratch the floor.

I have a dirt driveway. Not gravel but certainly not paved either. My 1800 Power Curve has not been a problem. I have learned where specific embedded non-removable rocks are and have learned to avoid them easily enough. Hope that helps.

Given that the front wheels turn on an integrated pivot system it makes the devise very stable on uneven terrain. I used it for six months and I have a gravel steep driveway and it was very stable. Gratefully I am all healed now so it is just a memory.

Hi, I haven't needed to replace the wheels yet, so I'm not sure about that. Yes, my son uses them in our driveway and in the street. He manages fine, although it does take him a minute or two to adjust to uneven pavement or pebbles in the road.

not sure about the rake section but I've had no problems with the wheels. They are actually plastic but I have had no problems. I only used the rake several years ago as the winters here since haven't dumped too much snow on the roof at one time.

The wheels are high grade, hard thick plastic. Our grandson has ridden on a concrete driveway for almost 2 years on it and the wheels are still as strong as they were when we purchased it. Very durable.

Yes it can be ridden on the sidewalk.. The cracks won't interfere at all... I have already purchased 4 of these and the kids live them

Mine are tubed tires, no problems in 1 year of hard use. Should they ever need to be replaced, I plan to buy a set of hard rubber tires. With 20" wheels, it quite well over rough terrain. This is the best cart I have ever used. Pull, rather than push and it goes over anything. Also makes sharp turns easily.

I've actually had pretty good luck with mine. This is the second one I've owned. I ran the first one over while working on the truck so I can't say anything bad about it. I've owned the second one for two years now and get regular use out of it. Wheels are great and the tool holders are pretty nice as well. I wouldn't hesitate to buy the third after I run number two over!

We have taken the stroller on over 50 miles of walks with our dogs on sidewalks, grass, asphalt roads, and small rocky roads. While the wheels show some wear, we have not had one of them fail. I have also contacted Pet Gear Customer Service to order a backup set of wheels which are relatively inexpensive. I hope this helps.

I've had mine for about 2 months now and it hasn't cracked. It's great for beginners but I highly recommend getting better bearings, I put Bones Reds on mine and it's great. You also are going to want to fix the trucks because they are off center making it so all but one wheel touches the ground. Once you tune it, it's pretty good.

Since the wheels are plastic, the concrete will take its toll. It will work for a while - maybe a whe summer.
