Original Crotec Wagon with Shade Canopy

This arrived today and is fantastic! Easy to set up straight out of the box, no construction necessary.All three of my kids wanted to get right in, they are 3, 1 & 1 years old - loads of room for all of them to sit down for a comfy ride. And the wagon didn't flinch. Whole thing feels VERY sturdy, I will have no hesitation in letting them ride in this, although I realise it is not marketed as a kids travel wagon. My twins don't want to go in the buggy anymore, so I need somewhere to put them when they decide they don't want to walk..The base of the wagon is a thin but firm and padded layer, perfectly comfy but not heavy or bulky.Front wheels swivel, seems pretty manoeuvrable even with them all in it, although I haven't taken it out yet.Folds up really easily by just lifting the middle of the base - bit like you would lift the middle of a travel cot to collapse it. One hook holds the folded wagon together, super easy and will fit into any boot no problem.I was like, where are the instructions, there aren't any instructions?!? - but then I realised you don't need instructions, it's all so straightforward, not at all fiddly.I had thought that the bag rack on the back might be a removable 'extra' but it's built into the wagon and can't be removed.I will be faintly embarrassed turning up to forest school with this as it's a bit of a statement piece... But I'm sure they'll all be wanting one soon enough. Going to be using it on forest paths and maybe the beach - for kids and / or stuff... And I can see this being really useful for carting heavy stuff around even after the kids have grown out of it.Haven't tried the cheaper imitations of this, but at the moment I am really glad I paid the extra for this one. Love it.

We used this for Lattitude. It got lots of oohs and aahs on the first night but the next day there were a dozen purple ones doing the rounds. May have to bling it up next year to be individual.Fashion aside this was perfect for our 2 year old and 10 year old who both rode in it and slept in it together whilst we sampled the bands and booze.There was literally nowhere in the Latitude Festival it would not go. We went into the forest, up the steep hills - everywhere. It stood up to a lot of 'off road' action.My only gripe is that the sunshade is not waterproof or even water resistant. I will probably cut up some plastic sheeting or colourful table cloth for next festival outing as it got a little damp for my little ones.Also the mud flaps are a bit close to the wheels so can get clogged on forest floor, suggest you keep a tent peg or something to occasionally unclog.

We have recently used this when we had a day out and took a (large) picnic. It was brilliant! Four fold-up picnic/garden chairs fitted easily in the extension on the back although I feel this would be improved if that part was removable. It is sturdy and went over bumpy ground with ease. It is quite heavy to lift up (to be fair I knew the weight before ordering) but that is probably just because of the style of my car boot. We were so pleased to have the canopy roof, at first to keep the sun off of our food & drink and later to keep the rain off when we had a sudden shower. The roof was quickly pulled down and nothing underneath was affected by the rain. We are now thinking that this would be useful for transporting some equipment etc. when we have stands at exhibitions etc. Very useful piece of kit and I'd certainly recommend it to anyone who has a number of items to transport or a few heavy ones.

Really happy with my purchase. My 2.5 seems to have loads of room! Can comfortably lie down and have a nap if needed. Nice and roomy super easy to fold up and down. I did find it a lot heavier than I thought it was going to be though.You could purchase a five point harnes for a pushchair and attach this easy as it has clips ready. However I would say the child would need to be able to sit up steadily so maybe good for 1.5 years and over

Great trolley but our main reason for buying it was to go to the beach. It’s possible but very difficult to roll in the sand. Other than that, it’s a good size, I’m glad it has breaks, and the canopy is super easy to put on and take off. There is a pocket inside which is perfect for nappies and wipes, the cup holders fit the munchkin 360 cups or water bottles in perfectly, and the extra partition is perfect for bags - we fit two children’s size suitcases in side by side.

Easy to put a cushion in so we can use it as a dog buggy. Our large dog can no longer walk far and this means we can take her out. We pull her along. If it had a higher bar one side so it should be pushed it would be perfect. Very easy to fold down and up. It can easily stand in the hall awaiting use. I had ordered and returned 3 dog buggies before I found this.

Bought to walk to the beach with 2 children and all the stuff we need. Handles really easily, folds down quickly and so simple you don't need any instructions. Definitely recommended.

Absolutely brilliant, easy to set up and pack away and great control even when it's rammed full. Very happy with this purchase.
