Foldable wagon: 10 models with and without a roof in comparison

A foldable wagon is the ultimate must-have for many when it comes to hiking, shopping, a day at the beach or the classic Father’s Day. After all, without the four wheels, a lot would have to be towed, which in turn not only spoils the mood, but also reduces the fun. Children, dogs, groceries and – in the case of Father’s Day – at least two beer crates should be able to carry the ideal foldable wagon. But what is also important in the practical vehicle?

What do I have to consider when buying?

A handcart can be used for many purposes and must therefore meet many requirements. It shouldn’t be too heavy, but it should have a good load capacity. For some it is also important that the foldable handcart is also suitable for a day at the beach or for hiking, while others only want to use it for shopping or for the garden. We decided on the following important criteria for the perfect foldable handcart:
