great little lawn buddy 
2008-05-27
I was a little leery about buying this item unseen, but in from reading the other buyers reviews I decided to order it and take a chance. This is a great little garden cart. I like that I can use it as a little wagon to haul stuff around the yard, then just close the lid and sit while I pull weeds or plant flowers. It really does move easily in the grass to move to the next section of gardening. The pull out tray is useful in that I can load it up with my gardening tools, seeds, or whatever else I'll need for my yardwork. This cart is a great deal for the price.
Great, allows me to stay out longer.

This little "Buddy" allows me to get more time in my gardens. I carry most every thing I need in it and I am able to work easier with less stress on the back, legs etc. I have hauled soil, mulch, and at least a ton of rocks in this baby! It's not just for the "limited" it's "smart" working. I need a new one now, only because, it went for a swim (sunk) in the lake while I was in the house.

I am very pleased with the Lawn Buddy. It is a sturdy seat and is plenty roomy for supplies. Kids like it also!
Almost a 5 2007-12-05
Most of the great qualities have already been listed by the other reviewers, e.g., being able to sit rather than kneel, able to move back or forth without getting up, keeps contents pretty dry, etc. Plus, my personal favorite is that it can tote a heavy load around the yard with remarkable stability; with the top open, you can stack heavy bags of soil, mulch, fertilizers, and other lawn care products or tools and pull it around like a wagon as the top is designed with a cut-out for your hand!
However, that leads to my first compaint -- when the top is closed, there should be some similar type of device/handle to pull the cart around. My only other major complaint is that due to limited storage space, I would prefer to stand it on end in the shed. The top usually falls open and the tools get scrambled when I do so, however. Maybe some type of clip or lever can be added to enable storing it on end.
This has been a great help in the yard - I have a bad back but now I am able to move things around outside myself without waiting for help. I use it for so many things - even to carry garbage cans and bags to the curb on garbage day!
Bad hinges 2007-09-03
Love my lawn buddy soooo much. I purchased my first on in 2000. It would have lasted much longer, if only the hinges on the top were of a better quality. I purchased my 2nd lawn buddy, and after nine months, the hinges again, gaveway. I refused to by another, because I could not locate the Ames Lawn Buddy company, to suggest a different way to hinge the seat to the buddy. My freind, Amy, knowing how much I loved my lawn buddy, bought me another one for my 50th birthday. Again, a year later, the hinges again have given way. I am not a heavy woman, 142 lbs on my worst Monday AM weigh in, and use it for weeding my fenceline. It is so convenient, yet after a while the hinges give up. Can someone get me in touch with Ames, so I can express my experiences with them????
Ames True Temper Lawn Buddy 2008-06-26
When I am working in my garden my buddy goes everywhere with me.I love it. I can keep all my garden tools with me at all time. Rake and hose hooks right on the side. When weeding my back no longer hurts I sit on it is so easy to move while sitting on it. There is plenty of room for carring your plants inside. I store all my tools inside it when not in use. My only regret is I wish I had it years ago.

This product is very handy when gardening. If you have difficulty bending over and working on your knees, the lawn buddy is the perfect equipment to have. Just sit and row around while pulling weeds. The handy storage compartments are great for small gardening tools. No more walking back and forth to the storage shed to retrieve them.
Great for mom 2008-06-16
This is great. It is smaller than I had imagined, but its size is perfect. It can carry most of your hand tools. The only problem is the build quality. It feels like a cheap toy car. Hope it lasts.
A Real Must for Me 2008-05-31
I would recommend this item to anyone. I use it for gardening, but since I am an older person, I use it for many things around the house to prevent my having to get down on my knees because it is very difficult for me to get back up. I love it.
Yes, Yes and Yes!!! 2008-05-29
Wow - one of the coolest things I've purchased for my garden. I wish I'd bought one 20 years ago. I have a large, meandering garden with uneven areas - this wonderful invention goes everywhere with minimal effort and I can now garden twice as much due to the back/muscle relief.
The only bummer....I found the same product at Home Depot for $8 less. Oh well, I really don't care. The size, the quality, the roomy compartment under the seat, the fact that you can drag it behind you with the lid up.....all positives that add up to perfection. I love it. My back loves it. You'll love it.
