You really wouldn’t know it looking at the weather but festival season is just around the corner. We have been invited* to Geronimo and Down By The Riverside festivals this year which I can’t wait to go to.
We are camping at both festivals and thankfully Domu have come to my rescue and sent* me the VonHaus camping folding cart to review. Last year at Geronimo it was a nightmare taking everything from the car to the tent and took us a few trips. We also took the pram for when Lucas became too tired from walking which took up most of the boot space.
This cart is going to eliminate the need to take the pram and can carry all our camping gear in one trip from the car to tent.
The cart is made from a sturdy steel frame with a durable fabric liner, meaning it isn’t a compromise on non-folding models. You don’t have to assemble anything either, it seriously is easy to pull out when you want it opening and then to push closed when you have finished with it.
It comes with a carry bag to protect it for when you store it away and to carry it when needed. It’s only weighs 11kg so it is genuinely light enough to carry. If you don’t want to carry it, it pulls along easily when folded away in the bag and you just use the carry bag handle. It is a good compact size once folded away too so perfect for popping somewhere convenient whether that is the boot of the car, shed or cupboard at home.
The cart can take up to 70kg of weight. I know it isn’t advertised as this but we will also be using it for Lucas to sit in when he needs a rest. It means we can take whatever we need with us for the day and there is still room for him to sit in without us struggling with the pram over grassy areas.
I really like this cart and can see us using it for years to come. It’s so easy to store when not needed and is surprisingly easy to push and pull. I thought I might struggle when trying to turn corners but the wheels handle it perfectly without causing any strain to me. It also comes with a 2 year guarantee x
I’m glad I read this, we’ve been thinking about getting something like this now my youngest is out of a pushchair. It’s amazing how much stuff you have to carry when you don’t have a pushchair you can load up!
Now this looks like such a useful cart – I can imagine many children deciding it is for them rather than luggage though haha!
this is an awesome idea but i know my husband would use it to carry his fishing gear from car to pond and also when we go on picnics or outings for our food and bags lol x
This looks so convenient, I could have done with one of these for all the festivals I camped at x
I have never been camping and I don’t own a tent, so I had no idea how useful such a folding cart could be. It sounds great!
Oh this looks fab! I just looked at one today actually, I think we will go for it as it would be a life saver with my four and all our luggage!
Oh wow that really does look super handy and fun for the little ones. I know my son would be climbing in that lol.
What a cute festival cart, a great way to keep track of your child aswell as not carrying around heavy luggage you can just pull it along with you. What a great design idea.
Perfect for those two festivals you have coming up…..and strong enough to carry Lucas? Extra groovy!
these are such good ideas, and perfect for things like festivals. We noticed a few when we went to one last year and thought about picking one up, I love how this one folds so small though! x
What a super nifty cart ideal for taking those camping essentials on the move with you x
We are looking for something like this for camp Bestival. This would be perfect.
I love how it folds up nice and can carry so much, it will definitely be handy to have this to transport items. Great size too
I’ve been looking for something like this. With regards to them sitting in it…can he feel the metal work underneath? Does he have to sit on a cushion or anything or is it quite comfy for him?
He says it is comfy without anything but I do put a blanket underneath him then he can rearrange it as he likes x
