Perfect Rolling Cart – Durable, Easy to Use, and Highly Recommended!
By Mararr on Reviewed in the United States on March 14, 2025
I purchased this rolling cart for my mother-in-law five years ago, and it has been an absolute game-changer for her in her senior community. She uses it for everything—from carrying groceries to transporting laundry—and its smooth gliding wheels make it effortless to maneuver. With her petite frame, this cart was the perfect size and incredibly easy for her to handle. After years of reliable use, normal wear and tear set in, and she immediately asked for the same one again. Here’s to another five years of convenience! Highly recommend this cart for anyone in need of a sturdy and versatile helper.

THE BAG HAS CHANGED!!
By Unsatisfied on Reviewed in the United States on January 12, 2025
I bought my original Versacart almost 10 years ago, and it has consistently been one of the best purchases I have ever made. Unfortunately, after years of use, the canvas bag started falling apart severely. I emailed the company several times asking if I could purchase a replacement canvas bag and they never responded. I felt that, since I got so much great use out of it, I might as well support the company by buying an entire new cart. Also, I had no choice. I have received the new cart, and I am extremely disappointed in the quality of the bag. In the Amazon description, it is said to be "canvas," which I believe accurately describes the bag on my original cart (the label states the materials are 100% nylon with PVC backing, and it FEELS and drapes like canvas). The bag on the new cart feels like a thin plastic (100% polyester with PU backing). You can literally see through it if you put your eyes close to it. It is SO thin. I don't know if they have managed to make an ultra durable polyester bag that's this thin, but I highly doubt this new bag is anywhere close to the previous bag in terms of durability, and by no means is it a canvas bag. And to me, the bag itself was a huge selling point and something else that differentiated this cart from it's competitors. In addition, in the item description, it's still stated to have a canvas bag, which I think is false. I plan to contact Amazon/Versacart and I will update my review accordingly.

Where has this been all my life?!

This cart is easily one of the best purchases I have EVER made!! We live in an apartment and the hassle of making multiple trips up and down the elevator to get groceries upstairs is just not funny or fun. Bags ripping, my back breaking ... a sorry deal all around! Previously we had those wire mesh carts which got the job done but they were difficult to handle (not the best wheels rolling there) and the solid shape made it more difficult to fit certain items, plus they did not support much weight either so while helpful, definitely not ideal. When I got tired of exhausting myself with grocery transportation (where are your kids/ husband when you need them?!), I set out to find the very best possible cart on the market so of course I headed to Amazon :)). After falling into a semi-trance looking at page after page of the usual suspects, the Versacart caught my eye and I was instantly alert. My heart skipped a few beats and I forgot to breathe as I read the description, thinking "can this really be The One?!". It was just too good to pass up and while a bit pricey, I decided to order it and see. When my cart arrived I immediately unpacked it (so easy!) and surveyed it. Great material (so thick!), excellent maneuverability (wheels glide so smoothly!), and sooooo light (yet incredibly sturdy!)! I was definitely getting excited by then ;)). That evening I set out to get the motherload of groceries as I couldn't wait to put it to the final test. Jumped out of the car once in the garage and set out to transport my groceries upstairs. Thrilled with how easily the cart unfolds and how much stuff I could fit in it! 120 lbs is definitely doable. I loaded the cart to the very top, hung additional bags over the handles and voila -- what would have taken me 3 or 4 trips and much effort to get upstairs would get done in one pass. I started pushing the cart half expecting it to groan but no, a bit of a push and we were on our way. No awkward walking angles as the wheels roll 360 degrees and not a sense that my cart would fall apart. I made it upstairs effortlessly and not exhausted for once; I was thrilled! This was definitely THE BEST. I bought one for my mom too amidst much protest from her but now that she has it, we still laugh on the phone sharing stories about how much we love this cart and how we find ourselves cracking up alone or smiling like fools when we use it, walking around like models on a runway and hoping someone sees us and asks about the carts so we can gloat about them, lol. This item has seriously increased our quality of life significantly and we believe everyone in the world should have one. Yes, EVERYONE. I dreaded grocery shopping days before Versacart but now it's a breeze. I just cannot believe I didn't find this item before -- would've saved us soooooo much trouble, energy, exasperation, backaches, etc.! The only CON I can think of, if anything, is that when the cart is heavily loaded the handles feel a bit wobbly, but even then it performs perfectly and nothing has broken off or fallen apart even after the rigorous use I've put it through so just keep it in mind when you buy this product. The handles are sturdy and will not come off or break when heavily loaded even if it feels like they might to you. I've put this cart to heavy use over the past 3 months and it still works perfectly and looks brand new. I don't think I'll ever be without one of these, fantastic investment!
Easy rolling

Great cart. Holds a lot and the wheels are very stable. Using on an island with very uneven surfaces and it rolls easily. Folds easily too for storage. Would buy again. It is expensive compared to the competitors but so far has been worth every penny.
Excellent product

My first VersaCart was still going strong after six years until someone stole it. Excellent product. I use it at the laundromat, grocery shopping, Target, Walmart, everywhere. It is the perfect size, large enough to hold quite a bit while still being conveniently compact and not bulky. It has a cover that will keep things dry in the rain, and it folds up very neatly when not in use. The canvas covers the entire cart, ensuring that nothing will fall out. It comes already assembled, just the front wheels snap right on and it's ready to use. I had a minor issue with the wheels on my second VersaCart and the seller made it right immediately. Great product and great customer service. I highly recommend.
Best cart ever.

This is the best cart for shopping or just moving things. Very sturdy, folds super easy, waterproof material and a fold down cover. Wheels are very easy to maneuver. I bought this cart over 3 years ago and holding up great! It is well worth the money.
Great Cart - Not in Love with the Handles!
By Frazzled Glispa - Reviewed in the United States on May 11, 2015

I received this cart last week. I bought it to replace a more traditional style cart (big wheels in back, small in front, all wheels fixed, tilt to turn, folds in half.) I wanted a cart that collapsed in both direction to take up less room in the house. This cart is room, the bag seems very sturdy, and it collapses to create a much smaller footprint for storage than my old one. I walked to the grocery store (5 blocks) with the cart in a light rain on Saturday morning. I kept the cart folded and pulled it behind me on the way to the store. This worked very well, a couple of times one of the front wheels turned slightly to the side, preventing the back wheel from turning agains the ground, but for the most part it rolled well in a folded position. Once at the store I popped it open and wheeled it around the store as I filled it with groceries. This was a treat compared to the old one that I had to drag behind me. The handles are at a pretty decent height, but I wish that they faced back instead of forward (more on this later.) I found that walking along side the cart pushing it with one handle worked very well, unless the aisle was crowded (I shop early, so crowded means that the stock people had a bunch of dollies and carts blocking the aisle) in which case I moved behind the cart, and pushed with both hands. I was able to fit two weeks of groceries for one person in the cart, so it holds about the same amount as my old cart - I was pleased with this. After checking out, answering lots of questions about it for the clerks, and putting the cover on (fits great!) I left the store. This is where the handle situation became a bit more of a concern. For the most part it handled very well, again walking beside it and pushing with one hand. Occasionally, however, it became necessary to walk behind and push with both hands, up a slight grade, or if the sidewalk was slightly canted to one side (the cart wanted to roll in that direction) or over rough sidewalks (my neighborhood is very old, and some of the sidewalks are stone rather than concrete, and not in very good condition.) The issue is that I am a pretty fast walker, walking behind it I found myself kicking the metal bar that releases to fold up the cart. I didn't have any issue with the cart folding, but in order to walk quickly I had to stay farther behind the cart, which left me hunched over. I had to slow my pace quite a bit to avoid this. I feel like if the handles faced back that would given me enough distance from the back to avoid this problem. I had a brief thought of drilling out the rivets, turning the handles around, and using bolts to reattach them, but since the handles are at an acute angle doing this would cause them to point toward the ground, which wouldn't solve the problem, so I am trying to find something similar but with an obtuse angle to replace them, or some other solution that will allow me to have handles that face back toward me. This may not be a problem that impacts everyone, but for me it caused me to knock off one star - everything else about the cart is terrific, and I don't regret the purchase at all.

Wonderful, wonderful cart. Enables me to go shopping on foot. Easy to fold, light and easy to carry up and down stairs, easy to push, works well when riding public transport, holds masses of groceries - I couldn’t be happier with my purchase.
Makes everything manageable

I give it 10 Stars!! I use this for transporting everything, and at this point I don't know what I'd do without it. The functionality is great. It folds easily to put into the car. It's lightweight but incredibly sturdy. Today I decided to buy a new one and saw that it was 5 years ago yesterday that I bought this wonderful thing. It still works great, but the fabric has gotten dirty over the years from things I've carried in it (soil, trash bags, etc.) And rather than work on cleaning it, I'll just pass the old one on to someone and have a new one for the next five years.
Worth the $$

A must for city living. I literally couldn't go a day without it. This is my 2nd one. The 1st lasted almost 5 years of grocery and laundry runs. Wheels went a little wonky. Purchased a cheaper one and broke a wheel in 2 mos.. replaced broken wheel with one off the previous versa cart.. that was great, then broke the other wheel 4 Mos later. Now I'm back to the versa cart. Wish I could find replacement wheels because the cart itself is still in great shape. Solid bag and body. Like others I wish the handles were taller but it is what it is.

I love this cart. I would like a brake on it though. It rolls really smoothly and easily, which is great, but it seems like you definitely wouldn't want to take your hands off it for a minute especially if it was loaded up near capacity. I haven't had that problem yet though. It's light, but sturdy. It's folds up and is easy to store. You can roll it along all folded up when it's empty on the way to the store or wherever if you want. My kids have given it a good stress test (despite my protests) and it doesn't seem like it will break even if you load it up with things and then run and swerve around and run into walls. Very good
