This trailer is huge, I mean like bathtub sized would be putting it mildly. Really tough construction all square tubing frame with lag bolt connections. Fat tires that look like it would be no problem to go anywhere my quad can go. Assembly was very easy and took about a half an hour.
Yes, I recommend this product.

Have not be able to put it to the heavy test yet but overall it appears to be a great trailer. Dont expect to use it as a dump trailer with out working at it. You will have to pull out what ever it is your dumping but you can pull it out instead of unloading it. The side ways dump feature is handy. The trailer is light weight to move around but well built enough to not worry about loading it up.
Pros: Durable, Sturdy, Easy to Move
Yes, I recommend this product.

I've had this for a 3 years now and I couldn't be happier with it. I tow this behind my riding mower.
I don't abuse it, but trust me, I test it. I've hauled countless loads of soil, massive rocks, loads of gravel, large tree stumps that took two men to load, and I've even hauled a massive load of tree limbs and brush ten feet high (tied down)! My neighbors joked that they thought it was the Grinch That Stole Christmas driving off into the woods.
My only complaint is that they didn't use stainless for the bolts and plates that hold the plastic tub to the frame. Oh, and the dumping latch mechanism is also starting to rust. I really don't understand that, considering the price of the unit. I'll have to wire brush the latch and spray some T9 on it as a preventative coating.
When loaded up with soil, rocks, or anything that's heavy, it can be quite challenging to swivel and tilt the unit, but that's not so much a complaint as it is a testament to the ruggedness of what this can haul.
There are times when I wish I had more capacity, but honestly, unless you're talking about brush you wouldn't be able to dump larger loads without some form of hydraulic assistance.
Pros: Sturdy, Easy to Move, Durable, Nice Design, great capacity
Cons: hardware will rust
Yes, I recommend this product.

This cart holds 2 days worth of manure from 12 horses with no problem! It's very lightweight but tough and follows the ATV with no problem. We use a polaris ranger 400 to haul this cart.
Pros: Sturdy, Easy to Move, Durable, Nice Design
Cons: dump angle could be better.
Yes, I recommend this product.

heavy duty and lightweight utility trailer

Assembled easily. Trailer has great clearance- same as my Polaris Sportsman which will be towing it. It's lightweight so atv's tow capacity isn't partially used up by excessive trailer weight and it's a snap to move around by hand, though its also rugged - I've been hauling tons of gravel onto my house site for several days now. I don't know how well the plastic cargo bed will hold up to extreme cold yet. Frame is larger diameter than many other trailers I looked at. One negative feature is the "scooped" back end. Don't expect to dump a load of fill and pull away. You have to pull every bit of fill out with a hoe, rake etc... So if you're shopping for a trailer to haul gravel, soil, sand etc. you might want to look for a design with a removable tailgate. Also, it is pricey (as are any of the better quality models) - I paid less for my new 4x8 road use trailer with much more steel, lights, included ball coupler,and road tires.
Yes, I recommend this product.

I have been using this trailer for Duck hunting in Miss and Ark. Hauling equipment in and out of rice fields, this trailer has been a workhorse behind my 4 wheeler. It was very easy to assemble and appears to be durable and should last for years.
Pros: Sturdy, Easy to Install, Easy to Move, Durable, Nice Design, shipped direct to my local store

Purchased to haul wood and wood debris around our five acres of forested land. The trailer serves that need very well. The fat tires float over the rocks and ruts with ease behind our ATV. Time will tell, but the trailer appears to be very tough and capable of standing up to the abuse it is getting.
Yes, I recommend this product.

I almost bought the typical metal trailer you see everywhere when I stumbled across the Polar offerings. I'm so glad I chose this trailer.
It's got plenty of capacity and is really well built. Assembling it couldn't have been any easier.
So far I've used it to haul brush (stacked at least 6' over the top, tied down with a strap) into the woods and granite out of the woods.
I wasn't able to lift some of the granite high enough to get it over the sides and safely place it inside, so for the biggest pieces I had to roll them into the trailer when it was in the dump position and then struggle to lower the trailer back to level.
I've put massive rocks in it with no issues. The plastic shell is strong enough to hold anything you can lift. I had it filled with stone.
The dumping action is great. A simple lever that locks into place is real easy to open and close.
I could nit pick about a couple of issues with the bolts, (like not being galvanized), but this trailer is already making my life much easier!
I got it sooner than expected. Shipped the next day. Freight carrier requires one day for scheduling, so don't expect it on the day your shipping notice estimates. They call you and set up a date at least the day after.
Yes, I recommend this product.

2 holes didn't line up so I had to drill new holes. No big deal. I also made a plate/washer to reinforce the hole as it was close to the existing hole. Otherwise I'm very happy with it.

I give the 1500 HD Polar trailer 6 Stars out of five and a 12 on the Ten Scale. Easy 20 minute assembly. Really, really sturdy, yet light as feather empty. Unbelievably handy with swivel and dump features, made even better if you load onto a large plastic tarp. Park your wheelbarrow and garden cart. Hook the Polar 1500 HD to your ATV and triple your production! Worth every penny and free shipping to boot!
Pros: Durable, Sturdy, Easy to Install, Easy to Move, Nice Design, Great Value

This is an amazing cart. It's big, rolls easily by hand and is easy to manuever by hand or by machine. I pull it (and sometimes push it with a front mounted hitch receiver) with a Polaris Ranger. It trails perfectly. When in the dump position, it lies flat on the ground and is easy to get those heavier items in (rocks, bricks, etc.). Overall, this is a great value for the money.
Pros: Sturdy, Easy to Install, Easy to Move, Durable, Nice Design
Cons: none

Purchased two trailers within the first 20 miles of the piute indian trail in Utah with a load less than 120 pounds both failed. The bearing system is not ok we had all the bearings fall out in the first 20 miles returned them to Home Depot for a full refund. Dust and water can get inside the bearings next to the axel and turn them into mush.. We never made the last 200 miles ruined our trip..
No, I do not recommend this product.
