The Best Folding Wagons of 2023

Jan 07, 2024

For a wagon that can roll fully loaded across a sandy beach, check out the MacSports All-Terrain Beach Wagon. This wagon features 4-inch-wide, 10-inch-tall wheels to help distribute the weight over softer surfaces while also allowing it to clear tall obstructions such as parking-lot curbs and rocks. With the wheels attached to the handle, this wagon is ultraeasy to maneuver in tight places.

The aluminum frame and durable polyester fabric allow this wagon to carry up to 150 pounds while weighing only about 22 pounds itself. The cargo bed measures 32 inches long by 17.5 inches wide by 10 inches deep. It also features a telescoping handle and a center-mounted pull tab for easy fold up and storage, packing down to about 10 inches thick. The MacSports All-Terrain Beach Wagon offered plenty of cargo capacity for our cooler and beach bag, with enough extra space for an umbrella and a couple of chairs.

As we put the wagon through its paces, what really stood out was the articulating front axle. This was the only folding wagon we tested that did not rely on swivel casters fixed-mounted to the frame. The axle configuration gave us significantly more control for stability and maneuverability on uneven terrain and soft surfaces. This was easily the best cart for sand, including the soft, dry sand at the beach.

Unfortunately, we didn't like the way the hard plastic wheels rolled on pavement. They tended to grind and slip whenever they encountered stray sticks or gravel.
