Read This Before You Try to Assemble! !0 Steps ... ish.
There's a lot of discussion here about the lack of written assembly directions, and only a diagram to follow. I assembled mine in 30 minutes, and I have mobility problems. Pay attention to the following, and you'll have no problems.1) Unwrap all the parts and sort them out where you can reach them.2) Open the hardware packet and sort out pieces by type. I did this in a small box, but use a pan or tray. This really helps!3) When you sort out the hardware, a lot of stuff will be far easier to understand: 3a) There are four large, short, bolt/washer/nut assemblies that are made to hold the seat on 3b) There are 4 large nuts and washers (and two tubes and an axle) that are for putting the wheels on. 3c) There's a long bolt assembly that holds on the handle. 3d) There are 10 identical bolt/washer/nut assemblies that connect the tray, the basket, and the steering parts. 3e) The short flat plates are for attaching the plastic bin (2) and the basket (1). 3f) A washer goes under each nut before it is attached to the bolt. (No washers under the bolt heads.) 3f) The long flat plate connects the two arms on the front steering pivots (the front wheels). 3g) The remaining funky-looking part connects the steering arm to the center of the long flat plate. (*** Read further!)4) Don't worry about assembling this with tools to begin with. Put everything together by finger-tightening the nuts onto the bolts. You can assemble the whole thing this way, then go back and tighten each assembly. 4b) This uses nylon lock nuts, so none of them has to be really torqued down hard. For parts that don't need to pivot or move, just snug them down. If the parts need to pivot or move, snug the nut down and then back it off just enough for the parts to move freely.5) I started with the steering mechanism first. Put the long flat plate on top of the two right-angle tabs and bolt them so that the long flat plate connects the front wheels.6) Connect the steering mechanism (save attaching the handle until the very end): *** This is the only thing that is illustrated incorrectly for some reason. With the "U" shaped bracket pointing up, slide it from the front of the scooter *under* the heavy plate connecting the front axles, then over the top of the long plate that you used to tie the two front wheels together. Attach two of the (10 total) bolt assembles so that the steering arm pivots and moves the wheel connecting plate from side to side. These are bolt assemblies that you'll later snug down, then back off so that these parts will pivot easily.7) Attach front wheels ... valve stems on the outside.8) Insert the axle for the rear wheels through the square tubing on the back of the frame. Slide one short colored tube over each end of the axle, then a wheel, then a washer and nut.9) The remaining bolt assemblies, plate with "U" shaped ends, and flat plates are used to connect the plastic tray and wire basket to the frame. Theses are "sandwiched" together so that the flat plates stiffen the plastic and support the connection of the wire basket. The illustration shows this pretty well.10) Snug, or snug and loosen slightly, the hardware throughout now. As a general rule, bolts that are in a vertical position are inserted with the head on top, and the threads pointing down.

WORTH EVERY CENT
I bought this because I am extremely limited in my mobility. I can only walk short distances. When I have yard workers on site, I like to oversee their jobs. Dragging chairs around got to be a real pain. I looked at mobility scooters (Extremely EXPENSIVE), and I looked at electric scooters (EXPENSIVE), and I even looked at a minibike (More than five times the cost of this cart).I was a Georgia Tech Mechanical Engineering student. It took me about an hour to assemble the cart and even then I didn’t get it right on the first try. There are no assembly directions, instructions or pictorials. All you get is an exploded diagram of the cart (See photo). You’re on your own getting it together. You should consider this when you buy. Getting it together is not “intuitive.”PROS:Locknuts on all fasteners. Tighten once and forget.All steel frame, saddle, wheels, accessory basket, and pull-handle.Pneumatic low-pressure tires with knobby tread. Wide enough to prevent damage to lawns.Tool-free adjustable length pull-handle with locking mechanism to maintain preferred setting.Solid construction once assembled properly. Will easily support 350 pounds.Makes a stable seat and is high enough to stand without excessive effort. Seat swivels 360 degrees.Steel saddle is height-adjustable.Handy plastic tray for carrying tools, gloves, parts, small objects.Small wire basket for carrying small bottles, towels, you-name-it.Compact and requires little room for access to gardens or for easy storage.CONS:No assembly guidance.Steering is sloppy and not functional while sitting on cart (at least not for my size and weight).Not convenient for “scooting” from place to place. I must stand and move cart then reseat.Not recommended for use by children.All fasteners are metric.

TERRIBLE to put together, but worth it when it's finally assembled.
I bought the garden cart because I have severe back problems. I wanted something that would allow me to do many outdoor tasks from a seated position. The cart is very sturdy and has a comfortable swivel seat that can be raised and lowered. (Note: the seat is metal, so you'll want to put a towel on it to avoid painful burns.)I do have one big complaint about this product: assembling the cart was a very frustrating experience. The cart came with an illustration and a parts list, but there were no step-by-step instructions! The illustration wasn't detailed enough to use it alone to assemble the cart. Were it not for a YouTube video I found, I don't think I could have put the cart together. It still took HOURS to assemble because the video goes through the steps extremely very fast, requiring repeated pausing and rewinding. The camera angle was often at a less than ideal angle to see exactly what part and what hardware to use. It would have been SO much easier if the cart had come with step-by-step instructions and proper illustrations to take away the guess work. As for the video, instead of including a useless music background, THE ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS SHOULD HAVE BEEN NARRATED!Some steps were very hard to accomplish when I had to use tools on two pieces of hardware simultaneously when it's impossible to see both pieces of hardware at the same time because they are too far apart.I am a woman of 69 years who FINALLY got the cart assembled with no parts lacking or left over, but not without uttering many colorful words over a 3-week period. But now that the cart is assembled and functioning perfectly, I'm happy I didn't give up, throwing all the parts in the trash!

The Best of the Best!
The older I get, the harder it is to put things together, but this was definitely worth the trouble! It is attractive, solid, and so very useful in the yard! I love that the seat swivels and that I can pull this from flower bed to pond side. I’ve tried 3 other types of gardening stools/rolling carts and this one is by far the best of the best!
