It depends a lot on what sort of things you are moving around, and where. The wheelbarrow can carry more soil each load, but I have to manouver down a narrow path down the side of the house and through a gate, so the smaller more stable cart makes that much easier.
The other cart which I killed the tyres on (and which also has a lot of rust) is one of the mesh side ones like a little trailer. That has been really good for moving things like bales of hay and bags of soil, and has a surprisingly small turning circle. If you need to lift heavy things on and off a lot that style could be really good, especially as you can open the sides so you don't have to lift over them. You can get solid liners for them so you could probably use them for a small amount of mulch or something, but not for lots of soil.
I have one of those as well, but they're fussier than my dumper. Gotten a lot of use, but they do rust out on the hinges :/ It's nowhere near as old as the beast and already heading out.
try one of these. I've legit had mine for 14 years. I've eventually had to replace the tyres - did that actually late last year - but my god, I have NOT been kind to that thing and it has held the fuck up. I've filled it with dirt, gravel, bricks, drunken friends, I've rehydrated coir blocks in it, used it to drag pots and bags of mix over all manner of surfaces, I've left the damned thing out in the middle of the yard to fill with water with zero shits for over a decade and last weekend I used it to move a literal ton of 7mm finings to fill the greenhouse bed. Those tyres? Literally replaced them because they lasted so long they died of old age. Fantastic beast. And you can't beat that dumper.
keen to hear what you think of the cart.
Been thinking of getting one but the wheelbarrow still works hrmm
