DETAILS--FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Hideaway Wheelbarrow
ARE TOOLS NEEDED, AND IS THERE ANY ASSEMBLY REQUIRED?
- Our
hideaway WB is shipped to you ready to use! Unpack, setup, and use! No tools are
required at all (compare that to our competitors!). It
depends on the user, but it takes less than 30
seconds to setup our hideaway WB once it is unpacked,
and a similar amount of time to fully fold it for
stowing. The sturdy Pancake® folding wheel
assembly releases with the push of simple finger
latches, and the tire is moved and stowed against
the tub. The metal handles extend
and recess, and the two metal stands fold inward,
locking the stowed tire against the frame. The
unique design allows the user to stow all the under-frame
parts while still attached under the tub, or optionally
to slide the under-frame parts off the tub and
stow them completely inside the WB tub.
HOW STRONG IS IT AND WHAT IS THE CAPACITY?
- WE
BELIEVE OUR PRODUCT IS AS STRONG AND STURDY AS
TRADITIONAL NON-FOLDING WHEELBARROWS. WE
HAVE TESTED THIS PRODUCT SIDE BY SIDE WITH DIFFERENT
TYPES OF CARGO AND LOADS, AND BELIEVE IT IS COMPARABLE
WITH MANY WHEELBARROWS COMMERCIALLY AVAILABLE THAT
DO NOT FOLD, MOST WHICH ARE EQUIPPED WITH WOODEN
HANDLES (OURS ARE METAL) AND OTHER WOODEN PARTS
THAT CONNECT TO THE FORWARD TIRE (OUR TIRE HAS
A METAL TIRE FORK).
WHAT ARE THE USES?
- LAWN AND GARDEN, HOMEOWNER WITH SPACE LIMITATIONS,
LANDSCAPERS, CONTRACTING BUSINESSES, MILITARY RAPID
DEPLOYMENT, CAMPING, AND THOSE WHO WANT TO SAVE
SPACE.
WHO
SAYS THIS IS THE WORLD’S MOST COMPACT
WHEELBARROW?
- WE
STAND BEHIND THIS CLAIM, BECAUSE THE UNIQUE (PATENTED)
FOLDING WHEEL TECHNOLOGY ASSURES THAT NO OTHER
SOLID TUB WHEELBARROW IS MORE COMPACT THAN OURS.
WE KNOW THAT NO OTHER SOLID, ENCLOSED WHEELBARROW
FOLDS COMPACTLY WITH THE TIRE, STANDS AND THE
HANDLE STILL ATTACHED. WE GUARANTEE
IT. IF YOU PROVE US WRONG, A FREE WHEELBARROW
IS YOURS!
DOES THE HIDEAWAY WB FIT IN ANY CAR TRUNK?
- IT
SHOULD FIT IN ANY CAR TRUNK, UNLESS YOU HAVE
A TEENY TINY CAR (WE HAVEN’T CHECKED
FOR A YUGO). WITH THE UNDERFRAME PARTS STOWED INSIDE
THE TUB, IT FITS IN EVEN MOST COMPACT CARS. IT
EVEN FITS IN MANY CAR TRUNKS WITH THE UNDERFRAME
PARTS ATTACHED TO THE TUB UNDERSIDE, RATHER THAN
STOWED INSIDE.
HOW DOES THE HIDEAWAY WB COMPARE TO OTHER FOLDING
OR COMPACT WHEELBARROWS?
- There
are other fabric wheelbarrows that collapse,
but they do not have the capacity or versatility
of our solid tub hideaway WB. There are also
a few wheelbarrows made of fabric or that allow
the tub to dump forward, but these products do
not become compact without detaching various parts.
FIRST, NO OTHER WB PRODUCT ALLOWS YOU TO MOVE ALL
THE PARTS FROM INSIDE THE TUB, TO THE UNDERSIDE.
SECOND, NO OTHER WB CAN HANG ON A WALL OCCUPYING
THE SPACE OF THE TUB ONLY, BECAUSE OUR PRODUCT
FEATURES THE UNIQUE PANCAKE® FOLDING WHEEL.
ARE THERE PARTS WHICH DETACH?
- THE
HIDEAWAY WB IS DESIGNED SO THE TIRE, HANDLES
AND STANDS DO NOT NORMALLY DETACH FROM THE UNDERFRAME
UNIT—THE UNDERFRAME MAY BE STOWED INSIDE
THE TUB, OR STOWED WHILE ATTACHED TO THE TUB UNDERSIDE.
HOW DOES THE WHEELBARROW HANG ON A HOOK?
- THERE IS A SMALL METAL CABLE LOOP (OR PIECE
OF METAL) THAT ALLOWS FOR THE ENTIRE UNIT TO HANG
ON A NAIL OR SUITABLE HOOK.
HOW SHOULD THE PRODUCT BE STORED?
- THERE
ARE SEVERAL OPTIONS: 1) HANG ON HOOK WHILE UNDERFRAME
IS CONNECTED TO THE TUB UNDERSIDE WITH PARTS
FOLDED FLAT; 2) FLIP THE QUICK RELEASE LATCHES,
AND REMOVE ALL FOLDED UNDERFRAME PARTS TO INSIDE
THE TUB. UNIT HANGS ON
THE WALL, LAYS ON A SHELF, OR STOWS IN THE REAR
OR AN SUV OR IN A CAR TRUNK.
WHY
HAVEN’T I SEEN THIS FOLDING WHEELBARROW
WHEEL TECHNOLOGY ON OTHER POPULAR WHEELBARROWS?
- BECAUSE
THE PANCAKE® FOLDING WHEEL
TECHNOLOGY WAS RECENTLY INVENTED IN THE U.S.A.,
AND THERE ARE NUMEROUS U.S. PATENTS GRANTED AND
PENDING.
