Has any one used this at the beach? If not what are your thoughts will it hold up? Thanks in advance

Also try not to use the swivel wheels too much hard to move surface(sand can do it) for long periods of time!!!!

No, it has not been used at the beach. I wonder if the weight of the cart contents might make the wheels difficult to maneuver in the sand, but I really have no idea how useful it would be in that situation.

I don't think it would be very handy trying to either push it or drag it over the sand. It's only reasonably maneuverable over either a hard floor or a carpeted floor.

Sorry for taking so long to respond, my notifications are horrible lol!!! Okay, back to the question, the cart is fine against the areas of the beach BUT...... be very wary on bumping against hard items because the metal is easily bendable. If you don't bump into nothing severe than you are fine.

I just got mine in August, and I'm directly on the beach. So far it's holding up, with no signs of rust.

It needs to be secured pretty well to the ground with spikes (12" and 18" spikes included). I would think that this would not hold up well on the beach. I would try using a goal with fiberglass poles.

Have not used it on the beach but I live in the country and have only used it outside. I live in East Texas where it is pretty humid. It works great. Hope this helps.

It's sturdy enough I think, but the rack is MUCH smaller than it looks. It's a good rack to put outside or in your bathtub if you need to air-dry a few small things like shirts, maybe bathing suits, stuff like that. Beach towels tend to be longer, and made of thicker material. They'd probably end up hitting the ground, or not drying at all if you needed to layer them. This rack probably wouldn't be your best bet for that use.

I have used this in my backyard and it worked better there than at the beach which we have also used it. The winds at my house are a lot worse, and it held up well.

I haven'tried it at the beach. There is a fin that hold it in place in the car between the seat and the console which would probably not remain steady in the sand, especially with a cup making it unbalanced.

I have been researching this item to purchase, and multiple reviews on multiple sites state that this type of wagon is not a good beach wagon. Sand does not let thinner wheels roll easily (for example, it is very hard to ride a bike on sand). A lot also depends on how much weight you put in the wagon. So buy at your own discretion for beach use.

Unfortunately I don't know how it is on the beach/sand. It's a great net and we travel with it a lot but haven't tried the beach yet. As long as you can get the posts in deep enough to secure it, I think it would work well. Good luck.

We used ours at the beach, if you can stake it down fairly well (not just in sand), it does pretty well.

i have not used this in sand, so i have no idea how it would handle in sand--sorry.

I have taken mine to the beach and found if you fold a towel in half, lay it flat and set the chair on top it holds up pretty well. Just make sure you bring an additional towel for yourself.

It's pretty heavy after putting sand in it. Just roll it around. I still have mine in the same place after a year. The umbrella is still in good shape because I keep it close if I know there will be strong winds. I keep it close with those thick bendable ties available at Lowe's or Home Depot. I hear don't use water on these because it's not heavy enough and make sure the sand is not wet if you put it in since it will be hard to do so.

The Eton Rukus holds up great on backyard BBQs, a full charge and/or a partial sunny day can keep it going all day. My experience at the beach is that sand does get in specially at the hinges to tilt the solar panel. i try to clean it out most of the time after the beach but im not consistent on it. It has held up well over the last 2 summers at the beach with over 20+ outings every summer, no problems.

It's great for the beach but of course won't roll well through sand if it's not packed down. Easy to clean by lifting out the hard plastic liner and you can just flip over and pat the sand off.

So far so good!! I have had it out on my back deck and it has held up well so far. I will say I am concerned about the Florida sun and we will see how it does through the summer.
