Find Best Price at Amazon"It took a little practice and experimenting to determine the best place to put the carrier under the kayak (may vary depending on your height)."
"I position the dolly right under the seat area, strap it down with two 3' bungee cords, and pull it to the shoreline. Have not used the included strap."
"I read others comments about the smell before I purchased and figured I'd risk it given the price. Good product but can't rate it higher than three with that smell."
"Lube is a good idea, washing out the inside of the bearing is also a good idea, but I still feel this cart is slightly less than ideal for use on any beach, salt water beaches especially (large dunes of soft sand are more likely to get sand in between the rims."
"So, in all, it seems like it could work ok for what I needed but arriving with a flat tire that won't inflate is just a huge pain and makes me more hesitant to buy things online when they are really needed."
"Only shortcoming in my opinion is the size - the large wheels make it very easy to push over grass and rocks, but very tough to stow in the kayak (for trips that are one-way or out and back with no safe place to store them)."
"Mine arrived new in the box with a hole in one of the inner tubes. Over the next month however, we emailed back and forth several times- they had lost my address, the replacement was never shipped, and finally they claimed it had been shipped but it never arrived and no they could not provide me with a tracking number or any further information."
"One of the wheels was flat - both wheels had severe damage to them."

"PRODUCT IS EXCELLENT except for a special part with two nuts welded to each end."
"(broken boxes are common on this product). It is not heavy duty but adequate for storage purposes in a garage."
"The bad part is that on the first dolly the pre drilled holes did not lineup correctly so I had to re-drill all the holes on the frame."
"Unlike the CESmith model, this one has metric bolts that are larger than those on the other model. The SAE model uses 3/8" bolts that require a 9/16" wrench."
"There are four two nut plates (will make sense when you see the hardware) that are crudely welded...you might need to bend the plates so the nut threads line up when trying to get the caster bolts to find the threads of the nuts. If you aren't familiar with normal nut/bolt construction you will want to put the lock washer on the bolt first followed by a flat washer when installing the casters. Normally you put flat washer and lock washer on right before putting nut onto bolt...but with the caster install you have to put them on the bolt first."
"The hardest part was to slide the wave runners off trailer, onto the dolly. Once of the trailer these dollies worked perfectly."
"I did not compare the height of this unit to my trailer and found that it was about 3 inches too high which required driving the trailer onto ramps to line up the height."
Designed for use in rugged environments, the cart features a pair of knobby inflatable tires and four rubber pads to protect your kayak from scratches. Enter your model number to make sure this fits.

Find Best Price at Amazon"pros-. -inexpensive. -works. -has a stand so I can level my boat on the dunes. -easy to put together. - folds down nicely. Cons- (and things I think could be fixed). - needs thicker/more padding. -needs wider wheels, not the wheel base but the actual wheels need to grab more surface area. - strap the way it currently made is worthless, though it has a pretty design. - not to good withstanding weather if you leave out. - not stable under load because of small wheelbase and small wheels (you have to bend down pretty low to get a grip on the craft to pull it). My largest complaints are about the straps and the lack of padding... these two issues need to be taken care of."
"After trial and error I found that when I put my kayak on the wheels if it was too far forward the wheels would buckle and everything would just fall. So with the legs facing forward I placed the wheels about a third of the way under my kayak, then ran the strap through the legs and then through my kayak handles."
"The buckle on little strap they provided to secure the kayak to cart broke the first time I tried to use it."
"Some other review commented on the tires arriving with a strong plastic smell... wow, I had to set this thing outside to prevent headaches!"
"I appreciate what they tried to design here, but the fact is, it fails. I've seen some better designs that are nothing but the axel and wheels with two rods that slide into the scupper holes on a kayak, that seems like a smarter design if you have those. They sell these style of wheels at the Box Stores in the lawn mower section."

"If you are expecting this to be an amazing knock-it-out-of-the-park compass at this price, think again."
"You just need to make sure the dial is free floating before relying on the reading. A tap with your finger may help to free up the dial 2) and less importantly, the fabric cover that comes with the compass is worthless."
"This is great for beginners (like me) but this isn't something you want if you really know how to use a lensatic compass."
"Let me start off by saying that this compass is big and heavy. For some reason it has that thumb ring or whatever it is that other reviewers have noted that prevent it from sitting flatly on a surface."
"It is not leveled properly, it doesn't flat either because of the finger ring."
"Do a web search on compass balancing, (NOT the same as declination) Suunto has a great explanation on their site."

Two hoses and a 12-volt power supply are required, so using this Flojet 18555-000A, Portable RV Waste Pump is not as simple as emptying our tanks at a dump station."

Dirt doesn't seem to stick to it and the steel cords I hung it with had to be replaced because they twisted and bent from use... but the swing is pefectly fine... just stretched about 20% in the middle from my kids and my 220 lb husband lounging in it on a regular basis! I also have to say that this seller is a very kind person, who really wants his customers to be happy and pleased with the purchase."
"I would rate this paracord as a 'full confidence' addition to my kit, meaning the paracord can be relied on to perform tasks within the parameters of its specifications."
"This was my feedback: "I have tested your 750 orange paracord, and just received the 25 feet of forest camo paracord that Adam sent. the inner strands are each three strand, instead of two strand, that some other manufacturers use."
"The Tough-Grid cord is very easy to work with knots because it is just slightly bigger than the Type III 550lb. If you do cut it, “burn” the ends immediately because the outer sheath will fray much faster than the Type III sheath (7 strands) since there are 11 strands tightly packed inside the Type IV Tough-Grid outer sheath. Don't burn the cord. Get the end of the cord burning, wrap the paper towel around it and run it down to and off the burnt end."
