Polar Trailer9626 Side Rack (LG900 &1300 Series)

I've had this trailer for a while now and it has definitely earned its keep. It takes a lot of abuse and keeps on going. Most trailers would be a dented rusted mess by now. Not this trailer. If I actually manage to wear this trailer out, I will be getting another one, no question!

It was easy to set up and the swivel dumping is very handy. Very sturdy and light weight. I used a John Deere E150 tractor to pull the cart around with no issues. Have had the cart full of rocks, mulch, and tools with no issues. We have noticed an issue with the quick-release latch. The latch is not part of the assembly process and when we tried to use it, it was a little difficult to release the latch. Now there seems to be a metal plate that has bent (see image) making the latch unusable. This could have been user error since we did not look as to why the latch as difficult to open. I'm still leaving a 5 starts rating even with the latch problem since it may have our fault.

After reading the other reviews about the time and slight difficulties in putting this trailer together I wondered if I would be able to do it by myself. Well, I had no trouble and it took me just little over 45 min.s to put it together. I used a 14 mm deep socket and ratchet wrench and a long broad-tipped Phillips screwdriver. The only problem I ran into is that I mixed up the longer bolts; there are 2 each of different lengths which I had not noticed when laying the hardware out. I just got done using it to haul some rocks and then a load of damp dirt to a low spot in my roadway. I attached it behind my Yamaha 400 4-wheeler using the pin. It pulled well and dumped the dirt okay - if it had been dry it would have slid out better but had to shovel it out as it got stuck. It is a blessing for me to have so I may now repair my roadway, etc. without using a wheelbarrow and walking back-n-forth with smaller loads.

Getting this trailer assembled was pretty easy, and took about 15 minutes: you will need a larger head-size Phillips screwdriver and a crescent wrench – that was the hardest part doing it myself as I was holding the nut with the wrench in one hand, then reaching way over with the screwdriver / drill to tighten the bolt inside the bed of the trailer; if you can get a helper for that last part to do one or the other you will save yourself five minutes of the 15 minutes setup process.It hooked up easy to my riding mower and rolls smooth along the yard – I loaded it up as much as I could with bags of bark on day, a load of firewood, and a couple of other things on day one and it traveled just fine. If you are looking for a good garden trailer, I would recommend this one.

Among other things on my 4.5 acres I move firewood. My property has hills and my mower is a 4 wheel steer. Maneuvering is no issue. The dump feature is excellent because it is extremely easy to pivot and dump exactly where I want. The empty trailer is extremely light to move by hand and put exactly where I want in my barn. I highly recommend the product. Shipping was fast even though it is holiday shipping.

This was so simple to assemble that anyone can do it with basic hand tools. Assembly takes minutes! Tough for your hauling needs. After a storm this week I had two 40+ foot uprooted trees to cut up in my yard and this was a lifesaver. I couldn’t believe how much wood I could stack up without any problems.

I've always been of the mindset that if plastic is good, metal must be better. But after reading some of the reviews on the metal trailers (hard to assemble, flimsy sides, etc.) I decided to give this a go - and boy am I glad. Unlike the steel trailers, this one went together in less than 45 minutes with one person. It's super sturdy and I've put way more weight in it than what it's rated for. I've used it for moving dirt, stone, brush, and even as a sawhorse and it's taken everything I've thrown at it. Buy with confidence!

I’ve owned this trailer for a year and a half now and if it was stolen I would replace it tomorrow. I love it. It’s very sturdy as the photo with the load of rock shows. The dump feature is so handy. I added tie-down loops, with reinforcement (see photos) which have proven to be helpful with loads of branches or scrap. Great purchase!!!
