In this review, we take a look at the WORX Aerocart WG050 8-in-1 All Purpose Lifter/Carrier and Mover.
WORX Aerocart WG050 8-in-1 All Purpose Lifter Review
The WORX Company has long been known for creating unique and innovative products. It is therefore not surprising that in a world of ordinary single functionality wheelbarrows, this company decided to come up with the WORX Aerocart WG050 8-in-1 All Purpose Lifter/Carrier and Mover.
As its name suggests, this innovative wheelbarrow promises to perform up to 8 functions. It can act as a:
- Traditional wheelbarrow
- Dolly
- Extended dolly
- Bag holder
- Plant mover
- Rock mover
- Trailer Mover
- Cylinder carrier
Apart from being able to comfortably perform these functions, the WORX Aerocart WG050 8-in-1 All Purpose Lifter can also quickly and easily convert from one function to another.
Features of the WORX Aerocart WG050 Lifter
The only way this wheelbarrow can perform all its functions is through its cutting-edge features that have never before seen on a wheelbarrow. Some of its most important features include:
Turbo Lift Design
The WORX Aerocart WG050 8-in-1 All Purpose Lifter features a unique turbo lift design that moves its centre of gravity so that it can make a weight of 90 kilograms feel like 7 kilograms. This design centres the heaviest part of your load directly over the Aerocart’s wheels, creating balance and stability.
This makes it easy for you to lift and move even the heaviest of loads.
Two oversized wheels
The fact that the WORX Aerocart WG050 8-in-1 All Purpose Lifter comes with two wheels automatically makes it significantly more stable than one-wheel wheelbarrows. This kind of stability is necessary for lifting and moving heavy loads. However, these wheels make it much more difficult to manoeuvre through tight spots.
It is also worth noting that the Aerocart’s wheels are puncture proof, forever eliminating the need for inflation.
Bag attachment
Another noticeable feature of the WORX Aerocart WG050 8-in-1 All Purpose Lifter is its bag attachment. This feature allows you to easily attach a rubbish bag for collecting leaves sticks and debris as you walk around your garden. It comes in handy when you need to tidy up.
Flippable extended dolly
Another beneficial quality of the WORX Aerocart WG050 8-in-1 All Purpose Lifter is its extended dolly that can be flipped within seconds to enable you to carry multiple heavy loads at once.
Flower pot and rock straps
Fully equipped with highly functional straps for carrying flower pots and rocks, the WORX Aerocart WG050 8-in-1 All Purpose Lifter makes arranging your garden flower pots an easy task.
Trailer ball joint attachment
This feature is pretty neat, it allows you to attach the barrow to your car via a tow bar attachment.
- Turbo Lift design makes a 90 KG load feel like only 7 KG
- Highly versatile lifting and moving work system that converts instantly to handle any challenge
- Patented design adjusts centre of gravity for a balanced and easy-to-manage load
- Puncture proof tires never need inflating
- Includes flower pot strap & cylinder, bag and rock holder strap
