Comparable to the Kreher model, but with fewer equipment details, is the Garden cart "Marisa" from the manufacturer Keter. This garden trolley made of sturdy polypropylene has a capacity of up to 55 liters. Unfortunately, the manufacturer does not provide any information about how heavy the maximum load can be - after all it makes a big difference in weight whether you transport 55 liters of autumn leaves or 55 liters of potting soil want. Nevertheless, many customers on Amazon are very satisfied with this product and only criticize the fact that it tips over quickly when empty due to its low weight. The Keter "Marisa" garden cart is stackable so that you can store several of these models to save space.

This garden trolley also comes from Kreher and has just as large a capacity as the model already presented. Here, however, the pull handle can be removed together with the hook strip, so that you can only use the bin if necessary. Thus, this product can be used multifunctionally not only as a garden trolley, but also for many other purposes. This is also shown by the numerous product comments from satisfied Amazon customers. They also describe the garden trolley as practical, stable and robust. There are numerous openings in the handle module where you can find not only small handheld devices and Gardening gloves can attach, but also larger garden tools. The large plastic wheels are mounted on a metal axle and, according to customer descriptions, run smoothly.
Purchase criteria
purpose of use
You can use a garden trolley for different purposes: as Leaf collector in autumn, to transport earth or fertilizer sacks as well as gardening tools, to collect rainwater and bring it to the desired place in the garden, for firewood and much more. Before buying, think carefully about what you mainly want to do with the garden cart and how the model must be designed to best serve its purpose. For this, it may be necessary, for example, that the trolley has extra handles to carry it have the wheels removed or you have the option of attaching various garden tools to them attach.
material
Garden trolleys are usually made of plastic, often polypropylene. This material is stable, robust and resistant to UV light and weather influences such as frost and heat. Nevertheless, it suffers over time and can become brittle, which is why you should store the garden trolley as dry, dark and frost-free as possible when not in use. Plastic also has the advantage that it is very light. Make sure that the material is as thick and strong as possible. Containers that consist of a single cast and are therefore less prone to cracking are very suitable.
Size and capacity
Other important purchase criteria are the size and capacity of the container. How big your garden trolley should be depends primarily on what you want to transport with it. If you just want to bring a sack of potting soil and similar little things to the bed with the help of the garden cart, a smaller model will certainly suffice. But if you want to use the device in autumn as a leaf collector or for collecting garden waste - for example from cleared beds - you need a lot of volume. But be careful: Very large garden trolleys often have an unfavorable center of gravity and tend to tip over.
Resilience
Even more important than the question of the capacity is that of the load capacity. After all, what use is a large garden trolley if you cannot load it heavily when you need it? Materials such as wet leaves should not be underestimated either, as this can be very difficult with the appropriate volume. Not to mention if you use the cart to carry firewood and other heavy items want to use - such a model has to withstand a lot so that it does not come prematurely Shows signs of wear.
transportability
No question about it: a garden trolley is there to transport all kinds of things. But sometimes such a device has to be taken somewhere by itself. If you have to do this, ask yourself before buying whether the cart will fit in the trunk of your car in case of doubt. Speaking of space savings: some models can also be stacked one inside the other so that you can store several. That takes up significantly less space in the garden shed!
frequently asked Questions
What does a garden trolley cost?
You pay around 30 EUR for a good quality garden trolley.

What alternatives are there to the garden trolley?
