Grizzly T34006 Mobile Lumber Cart: A Practical, Yet Imperfect Solution

Posts by : Oliver Rowny

The Grizzly T34006 mobile lumber cart offers a convenient way to organize and transport lumber, but the initial assembly experience presented several challenges.

This review details the construction process, highlighting both its practical benefits and notable shortcomings.

The cart boasts a robust design with a 60-1/2″ x 30″ footprint, a 58-1/2″ height, and a substantial weight capacity of 1100 pounds, distributed across four tiers with a combined load limit of 1100 pounds.

It features eight casters – four fixed and four swivel – designed to provide stability and maneuverability.

However, the reviewer encountered issues with the fit and finish, including misaligned caster plates, uneven welds, and dimensional inconsistencies.

Specifically, the top arms of the upright supports were found to be uneven, potentially compromising the stability of longer lumber.

Furthermore, gaps were observed on the top shelf, requiring shimming to ensure proper support.

Despite these issues, the cart’s overall functionality and capacity make it a viable short-term solution for managing lumber inventory, particularly for users seeking a quick and adaptable storage system.

The reviewer considered alternative construction methods using 80/20 extrusions but opted for the Grizzly cart due to immediate needs, acknowledging its temporary nature and the potential for future modifications to address the identified imperfections.
