We've moved to a more manual way of transporting the robot last year because our powered one is about 35" wide. Our new cart works okay though. I like the manual method more because the batteries don't drain . I think we're going to add drawers and a stand for the robot this year and painting it orange or blue, but that's all we want. Maybe a radio and compressor for off season but who knows.
we knew that safety would be an issue so we have ordered a 4 point harness for the seat as well as safety lights and a horn for the cart, also our cart fits through any 30 inch doorway
