A GCG-7 Gorilla Cart was provided to us by the manufacturer in October 2019. We had the agreement with them that we would review the cart honestly, and if there was anything that we felt should have been done differently or better, we would say so. The President of the company reached out to us and indicated that he welcomed our candid remarks.

To see the unboxing, assembly, and review we conducted of the GCG-7 Gorilla Cart®, visit Just How Good Are Gorilla Carts? at    • Just How Good Are Gorilla Carts?  .

After 2 years, we still feel that with only a few very minor issues, the Gorilla Cart is a strong addition to our suite of yard care tools. It has held up well, all the while being used for a wide variety of tasks, including dense-heavy and high-volume light loads.

The pneumatic tires have held up well too. We keep them inflated to the correct level, and we put tire sealant ( the brand we used was “Slime”) in them. Additionally, while the cart is outside for extended periods of time, we keep it in the shade much of the time, and it is overwintered in our tractor barn. The reason? Plastic and sunshine don’t mix well. Plastic, as well as rubber tires, will degrade. Tires will “alligator”/crack, and plastic fades, becomes brittle, and eventually breaks. The plastic pull handle still is in good condition, as is the latch for tilting the bed.

The only minor repair we had to make is one of the retainer clips came off a tire. We were unable to find it in our yardscape, and we could have ordered a replacement from Gorilla Carts®, but it was just as easy to run down to our local farm supply store and find a washer and retainer that worked just fine. About a $3 repair.

To see some of the other carts Gorilla Carts® offers, visit https://gorillacarts.com/product-cate... They offer several load ratings, as well as both pneumatic and “no flat” tires, and they have carts with all-metal latches and pull handles for commercial settings. Parts are readily available should you need them.

We expect we’ll have this cart around for some time to come and remain as enthusiastic about it as when we first got it. It’s one of those things around here that make it easier to JUST DO IT YOURSELF.
