Excellent for the money!
It does the job for me. It allows me to load the kayak near the car and roll it down to the launch ramp. I have rolled it down some uneven paths and it does relatively well. The kayak will tip over on very steep uneven terrain. Another person would be helpful in this situation. Attachment is easy, but placement of the strap is important. It has to be snugged in a spot that will not slip off. Many people have made positive comments to me about this kayak cart. They all want one!

Far easier than a shoulder carry
Kayaks have smooth hulls - so finding any carrier that will attach easily and roll without slipping is a challenge. Choose your attachment point or strapping point from the boat to the kayak to best keep the tie down straps from slipping.If you are carrying your boat solo or packing multiple boats to the shore over uneven ground then a kayak carrier is a help. In large stone or very rough ground, you will still probably have to hand carry the boat.

Love the built-in straps
I have to offload my kayak on the street and haul it up a steep driveway to store in my garage, so I use this cart at least twice every time

Not a Great Experience- Returned
I bought this cart because the large diameter inflatable wheels looked like it would make launches easier on rocky areas. Unfortunately the rocks would catch the wheels and pull or twist the cart off the kayak no matter how tight I made the strap.It was difficult to seat the kayak on the cart, and kayak would also tend to roll on this cart. The cart does not have a deep V to solve these problems.Im sticking to a cart that has a strap/hook to attach to the kayak cockpit lip, so the cart wont slide off the kayak.I have a big 17.5' kayak which weighs 58 lbs. You may have better luck with a smaller kayak with a flatter hull.

Exactly what you expect
Its tough and from what I can tell will last a while handles rough conditions and terrain.
