Power Wheelbarrow

[Jeffsaw]

Just wondering if anyone has used a gas or electric powered wheelbarrow?
Some have wheels and some are on tracks. I was thinking of getting one to haul firewood but there are a lot of choices out there.

Awesome, love them. Big fan of CanyCom equipment. Great honda engine and no complaints. Have used them for years and used hard in front country and backcountry settings. Highly recommend​

I've got a couple of DR Powerwagons. I like them a lot but recently I've been impressed with the Yardmax line of powered wheelbarrows.

I bought this a couple years ago to bring my firewood into my cellar for the winter. Total game changer. I work that think over too and it takes it like a champ. Totally worth the money.

What kind of money does one go for? Don't see a price on their website.

That particular model is ~$7k. Not cheap.

We used them in the 80's to move concrete for small pours the trucks couldn't get to. They were slow-but-sure moving and dumping far larger loads than you could move with a manual wheelbarrow. It was a toss-up as far as production goes as a manual wheelbarrow was faster and more agile (with a much smaller load). However, at the end of the day you were a lot less tired-out when using the motorized one.

For firewood...hmmmm, probably a manual wagon or barrow would be just fine, imo. Especially at 7 large...

I have a gas powered track wheelbarrow.
Not very refined machine, a little slow, but it's rated for 660lbs and will haul anything that fits in it uphill all day without complaining.

These sell for $1999.00 new at the Canadian version of Harbor Freight. Got this one next to new for 1200 Canadian pesos.
As mentioned, manual wheelbarrows are faster and more agile, but for heavier loads, this saves my back for sure.

Where can you find one in USA?

Lots of this that THD offers to sell on line that you will never see in one of their stores.
