Since there are so many problems with the wheels coming off has anyone tried replacing them? Just wondering...

I have had no issues with my wheels; however, I am not rough with my equipment. Replacement would require that you be a little handy with tools. You can find caster wheels at Lowe's , Home Depot or here at Amazon.

Mine is fine, but one wheel keeps popping off!! Sorry you cart is ripping. Gorilla glue?

Haven't had to repolace wheels. Suggest you look on their web site. Other approach-look at wheel-should have size on it just like a tire. Then buy replacement with same size and same axle attachment-note-I usually go with foam filled wheels as they don't deflate and are a bit softer than hard rubber.

Same problem here. Sorry to say we've had no luck getting the wheel(s) to stay on. Keep reattaching, but still no luck.

Beats me! I've reattached the front wheels at least six times. My next step will be to junk it. I have a back problem and need the front wheels, otherwise I'd do without them as Osric is doing.

No I haven't exprienced this issue. My problem was the wheel started to get very squeaky. I sprayed a little WD-40 in it & it's working fine now :-)

Same thing here! The wheel in front split...I contacted Amazon and they immediately responded. I've since sent the scooter back and have gotten a refund. It came from Next Sport thru Amazon

I've bought two if these chairs and have never had a problem with a wheel falling off. Are you sure you installed them correctly, pushing them firmly into place so that you hear a "click"?

You have to make sure that the wheels "click" when you push them onto the "stick" - the axle. I have used mine often now and have had no problem with the wheels at all.

I have had no problem with the wheels falling out. They are difficult to get pushed all the way in until they snap in place. I either hit them with the palm of my open hand or carefully with a small hammer. Hope this helps.

You can take it to a regular bicycle repair shop. I replaced it myself, but it's definitely more tricky to get the wheel on and off than with a typical bicycle. Ultimately I put on a tubeless tire and saved all the hassle.

Dear Corey, It does not come assembled. Assuming you can find wheels that will fit, Im sure they can be replaced.

I would replace them all as the others will probably go next . I bought a kit to replace all . Did and haven't had any problems. Hope this helps

Just replace the wheels only. I found mine at castercity.com for $5 apiece. I selected rubber wheels, item number RH3X1 1/4B. Just remove the nuts on the axles, slide out axle bolts and voila, problem solved. It rolls very nicely over concrete. Good luck.

whether or not you get one with the problem wheels depends on manufacture date. if it's new stock, it will be fixed. if it's slightly older inventory, you might get the defective wheels. if you happen to get the latter, just contact Uppa and they'll send you a set of replacement wheels. customer service was quite good and prompt about supplying the replacements.

Unfortunately I returned the cart shortly after I got it because the wheels kept falling off. Maybe I didn't have them on right but I could not seem to figure it out myself either. Sorry I could not be more help.
