Anyone have problems rolling on aggregate decking? Can the wheel assembly be swapped out for rubber wheels? Thx!

I roll it on decking and then have moved it to driveway. No problems in either area. have not tried to swap wheels and would not wheels are great. I have both small and large one. Plan on buying another for my blueberry on a large. Both of those I have now are used under lemon trees so they can be rolled in the garage when we have freezing weather.

Have not had any problems rolling on any surface. Cannot answer about wheel change

with some difficulty,yes. Iwould recommend using the plastic wheels as long as possible.

I do not have aggregate decking. Never tried to change wheels because they work great even after being outside year round for over 2 years.

Roll, no. It's more of a drag it along. The wheels arenet designed to go through sand but will slide along with the right amount of pull. Even though it doesn't go in sand easily, I still found it to be worth the money.

I didn't have any problem snapping the wheels on, in spite of some arthritis in my hands. Sorry I cannot offer some words of wisdom . . .

Good morning, Ana. The wheels are made out of rubber. I hope you find this information helpful. Adreanna, HearthSong Customer Service

If you're very handy, you may be able to add wheels. I just wonder if the overall size and the wood tray in the middle may cause it to be a little unbalanced if wheeled around.

I do not have any wood floors.But I looked at the underside of the unit. It has the two large wheels in the rear, which have what appears to be a soft rubber replaceable tread (like a thin tire tread) on the outer part of the wheel. Those wheels should be fine. The front part of the unit slides on a thin plastic type strip which also appears to be replaceable. I would guess that as long as you do not have any gravel or small hard items that the plastic strip would push along in front of it, you would probably be OK.

I could slide, but wheels are terrible! Had to do way too much pushing... Not enough coasting, you're better off spending about 130 on a good board, I've been boarding for 5 years so sliding a no problem. And also the deck is way too flexible...

The wheels are inflatable and made of rubber. I've used this on hardwood floors with very heavy loads and did no damage to the floors. I've also used it outside to move heavy loads over grass, curbs, rocks, etc and it has worked very well. Hope this is helpful feedback for you.

Just curious how long did your wheels last? You can get replacement wheels at stamina products.com. They have a 800 number which they do not answer. I left a message and sent in email on foresight that I will need new wheels. Not sure if it's possible but putting stott wheels on the machine would be a good investment. I'm just not certain if it is possible. I had read a previous review in which someone said they had put better wheels on their machine. Which model do you own? Hope this was helpful!

The tires themselves are not the problem as long as you stay on sidewalks. The BIG problem with the Ultimate Wagon wheels is the front wheels which swivel as the wagon is pulled. When pulling at any more than dead slow speed, the oscillate back and forth making a very poor virbrating and noisy ride. Needs to be fixed somehow. I will try direct contact with American Flyer.

I have not had to change the tires -just bought this last fall and used it all around the beach, in sand, etc... with two toddlers riding in it. So far no trouble with wheels yet.

This requires a very minimal amount of assembly. If I can do it -- anyone can! Although in their assembly the screws limit the movement of the wheels so it doesn't roll. Huge bummer!

Wheels are still a weakness on the unit......they are hard rubber on a metal rim. One of my wheels has a slight wobble.

Can't answer that question. Our wheels are solid rubber and the cart is wonderful. Also the vendor is amazing; if you don't like your product when it arrives, believe me, they will make it right.

Yes, only caveat would be the wheel assembly is tough to get lined up and the treads on correctly. My son tried but did ask for my help after popping the wheels off a couple of times. Loads of fun and moves around pretty good.

I found the assembly to be difficult. Getting the rubber tire on the wheel was hard. But, once it is assembled, it works great.

Dan: I went out and looked at the 3 rolling racks I built, none of my racks have the locking wheels, but I know they do make a locking wheel, I just don't know the number. Try hitting on "locking casters or 4"-5" wheels". The 3 racks I built carry a lot of weight and the wheels handle it easily. Hope this helps. Browney M.
