Has anybody tried it on uneven surfaces like a park trail? The wheels look very flimsy.

We have a gravel driveway. It is easier to pull it backwards down the driveway than it is to push it through the semi-loose gravel.

Yes, I own a Posh and I have taken my little one for a walk around the park trail and the wheels are not made for the uneven surfaces. I had to push very slowly and gently but I love it otherwise. Hope this helps!

I push mine in the park trail all the time and have not had any problems with it.

Yes, my mother uses hers on uneven pavements and sandy trails. Pushing the stroller on these surfaces is a little harder and it's a bumpy ride for the dog. The item is lightweight and works very well on smoother concrete surfaces.

Mine works OK on a gravel driveway. It is a little harder to push than on a paved surface, though. I like this little stroller, and it works for what we need it for. Hope this helps.

I have used it on several types of terrain. Pavement, gravel, hard dry sand, dry soft sand and rocks. The only two improvements that could be made to make this the most versatile would be balloon bicycle tires and lockable brakes so you could lock the brakes on a hill. It has every other feature covered. The existing wheels are sturdy and serviceable on all those terrains as long as you go slow. I hope this helps!

I would say no. This is a beautiful cruiser with gears (basically) i think out would survive a dirt path but its more for cruising pavement or boardwalk. I think you're looking for something with a lighter frame and sturdier wheels (i am guessing the dirt road would have grooves and bumps). Try going to an REI store and asking the petiole

I would think it would do ok. We bought it knowing some of our walking paths are not paved. The tires are not "off-road" but for mostly dirt I would think they would hold up for occasional off road trips.

In a word yes although I have not tested over uneven ground but the wheels are well built and should take a battering.

I think it would best for hard surfaces. The tires are small and when we did take them on a trail, we lifted them over obstacles. Gravel roads should be fine as long as they are not to loose.

Yes be careful, the wheels are not made well and tires go flat I'm returning the one I purchased

The plastic wheels are a bit flimsy,, but I do store the unit Standing upright in my shed & roll it out for use - over the door jam & on grass & dirt. It is quite heavy, but if you keep it on an angle the wheels support the weight. I don't think you could pull it up a very steep hill, without a struggle. If the manufacturer had made rubber wheels.. it would probably be easier. But the hard pastic wheels are not very forgiving.. Hope this helps.

The wheels are designed to work well on smoother surfaces. Nicely paved sidewalks and paths are perfect. I can't imagine this working well on a dirt road.

The wheels are better suited to flat surfaces. Rolls well on carpet and tile, would likely be good on the sidewalk. The grass may take some effort to push it

It really depends upon your application. If you want this for running errands, getting from a building to your car and back, or other light outdoor use, it will probably be fine. If by 'out side' you mean traversing rocky or muddy terrain, I'd look elsewhere. The wheels are really made for relatively smooth surfaces, like pavement. Also, beware of large cracks in asphalt or concrete.

I would recommend swapping the wheels out with a more "professional" brand. Personally I swapped these generic wheels out with Orangutan 4 presidents. Swapping the wheels out for a more softer wheel should allow you to glide over bumps. Overall these trucks haven't failed me. They are loose but not too loose. They can also handle hills very well.

You know, the wheels are not real heavy duty looking so I do not use it for sand or dirt just leaves and mulch. I do go up a couple of steps with the materials and the wheels seem ok so far. The plastic bucket part seems heavy duty enough and I have mixed potting soil in it and moved it aroundon the back deck to top off the planters but this is a flat surface.

I gave this Trike to my Grandson and he loves it. They have a grassy backyard where it seems to work fine, in spite of the uneven surface. He also rides in on the sidewalk, while not the same as pavers, there are numerous gaps and bumps which it seems to handle with no problems. I think the wheels are big enough that they should be able to handle pavers as well.

No. I never had any trouble going over any type of surface. I travel extensively and over difficult surfaces - from escalators to sidewalks to gravel walkways. The wheels don't break apart of flake. Good thing since Wenger won't repair their products.

It rides pretty well on both surfaces! Just overall, the board is rather flimsy compared to another Globe Nickel board I have and the bearings aren't quite as fast. But yeah, I suppose a smooth road is faster than the sidewalk.

I have rolled it along on grass that is between smooth and rough and it has done well. Look out on side walks etc. you get up and it takes off if your on a slant. I can scoot it along on most of my surfaces. I love my wagon it is the second one I have bought. I gave my other one to my neighbor and it is still going strong.
