Lawn and Leaf Bag Cart can hold a standard 30-gallon plastic or paper bag (our LLBG). Hauls easily and hangs on the wall for convenience. Ideal for collecting grass clippings, leaves and recycling. One piece, molded construction with an adjustable bag holder.

Summary: Base too small for paper yard-waste composting bags
Comment: Might work well for plastic bags, but I was unhappy with it as soon as I tried to put a paper yard waste bag on it. I bought it special-order from local Ace Hardware, and returned it without even completing assembly.
I checked the online measurements and figured since it is five inches wider than the bags it would be fine. On the Ames website, the catalog shows it with a paper bag on it. But my 30-gallon paper municipal yard waste bags are 3 inches too wide to fit the base well. You need to crunch in two corners to fit between those red plastic "arms" the two wheels are attached to. It would work, but it's more of a hassle than if it really fit right plus you won't get your bag as full.
The wheels seem cheap and poorly-designed - they pop on with these little expanding tabs like a toy (you won't ever take them back off again). They might last fine, but they do not even spin freely. Otherwise it seems well-made and sturdy and well-designed.
Ideally it should have been made about three inches wider, three or four inches deeper and six inches taller to use it for paper yard-waste bags. I would have definitely paid $5 or $10 more for this cart it if it was larger ($10 or $15 with better wheels), but somebody skimped. The paper leaf bags come within an inch or two of the top of the handle, however since the arms to hold the top of the sack adjust up and down the bars easily (and my fingers aren't more than an inch thick) this is not really a problem.
Instead I will find a larger generic hand cart with a base large enough to set the Young Mfg funnel for paper bag on it (an excellent product even though it takes lots of storage space).YOUNG MANUFACTURING LLC #WB-31-10 LWN FunnelFor Paper Bag I plan to use the funnel with a leaf mulcher positioned on top of it (DR power mulcher, similar to the Flowtron sold here Flowtron The Ultimate Mulcher 8 Amp Electric Leaf Shredder #LE-900- basically a weed trimmer inside a plastic barrell). Also an 18 in wide Target spiral hamper on the top of the mulcher funnel with the bottom cut out Spiral Pop-Up Hamper(for a see-through shield to keep dust and bits of leaves from flying everywhere), and the Midwest Quality 45TA leaf claws I bought on Amazon to feed it. Midwest Quality Glove 45TA Lawn Claws Leaf Scoops Should make a good system for quickly mulching and bagging leaves - many times faster than the Toro leaf vac which jams a lot even though with a metal impeller it works better than any other I've tried. Toro Ultra 12 Amp Variable Speed Electric Blower/Vacuum With Metal Impeller #51599 Now I'll just use the leaf vac to blow the leaves into a leaf hauler EZ Leaf Hauler 7-by 5-Feet #0007
If I wanted to use this Ames seasonal cart for plastic bags, I might still give it 4 or 5 stars. For paper yard-waste bags though, I'd give it just two stars for such an obvious design flaw.

Summary: Useful item
Comment: This item is especially helpful for someone like me who lives by himself. It is even better than having a person hold the bag open, since it doesn't complain!!

Summary: Lawn Cart
Comment: This cart has worked well for us. The hoop that holds the bag is easily adjusted to the hight of what ever bag you use. The side guards keep the bag out of the wheels.

Summary: 24BK Lawn and Leaf Bag Cart
Comment: Cart is a backsaver for those of us over 60. So handy with the wheels, the lid keeps contents dry, and it's sturdy too!

Summary: Just whatI was looking for
Comment: Th product is just what I was looking for! The only suggestion is to make the top frame larger so that it is easier to empty a grass catcher into it.
It was delivered on time and in good condition. Easy to put together.
