The dolly seemed like a good buy but after I received and assembled it I tried to move the lightest of my two snowmobiles with it. When you lower the handle to lift the machine, the two legs and tires splay out. As you try to move the machine around the tires splay more and pidgeon toe more until it is impossible to continue moving the sled. The manufacture just didn't make the dolly strong enough for even the lightest modern machine (a fan cooled 440). I haven't even tried to move my newer machine (at about 100 lbs. heavier than the 440 but still lighter than many snowmobile out on the market).
It bends a little when picking up my 500xc, I think that is as big of sled I would use it on.
this is one of the worst purchases i have ever made.The dolly will lift the sled ,BUT the wheels bow out and go in different directions. The steel is too thin and no instrucions came with it.
Dolly cannot lift sled high enough. Waste of $$$$

Overall a good working piece of shop equipement. For the money compared to other brands it does what it is supposed to that is what I bought it for.

- Please tell us about the quality of the product. product is of good quality, tubing could be a little tighter fit has a tendancy to wobble a bit not bad works well still.

I think it is heavy duty enough to do what I bought it for. Will make my life easier.

My husband loves it!!! It makes moving the snowmobiles a lot easier, especially if you have a bad back like he does!
As others have said, this will not move the lightest sled. Not only do the wheels bow out to the point that you can't move the sled but I actually had the welds brake on me. Stay as far away from this as possible. You can't weld week metal.... this was simply WAY under engineered.
This item was a great buy, and shipped quickly. I had it before I knew it, and my husband couldn't be happier!
This will NOT pick up and move any sled -- other than a 120cc kittycat.
Item is good for use once in a while, major problem is the wheels bow out when sled is picked up, This is because manufacturer used too thin of square tubing where the handle is welded, if they had used a thicker wall tubing each side would fit tighter eliminating the slack Which I will fix later anyways. It does adjusts easy so I can pick up any of my sleds rather quickly, not bad if you have a welder to modify later on.
