Additionally, I tested each wagon (filled with soccer equipment) on grass and bumpy, broken concrete surfaces, paying attention to how the suspension and wheels performed under different conditions. In spring 2021, I tested four additional beach-friendly wagons during several trips from my home in Santa Monica to ozark trail chair the beach (10 blocks away) and back. I hauled both of my sons along with beach gear like boogie boards, coolers, chairs, and endless amounts of sand toys. In spring 2024, I tested three additional wagons and compared them to our previous picks, toting toys and chairs to the beach and the streets of Santa Monica.
(Because none of the wagons were especially difficult to put together, we did not make this a major criterion.) We also looked at how easy each wagon was to fold and pick up, and to store in a small space. This versatile, light, easy-to-use wagon totes everything across different types of terrain and folds up to a compact, easy-to-carry size. Chairs, umbrellas, quality sunscreen, books, drinks, snacks — it can all be way too much to carry. Spending more time with friends and family shouldn’t mean spending more money on the summertime essentials. That’s why, this summer and every season, Walmart is committed to helping customers save money so they can live better, from the big moments like Fourth of July, to every other day in between. The Mac Sports Beach Day Foldable Chaise Lounge Chair intrigued us – a wagon that was also a beach chair?
Shortly after his departure, Richrath assembled former members of the Midwestern band Vancouver to form a namesake band, Richrath. After touring for several years, Richrath (the band) released Only the Strong Survive in 1992 on the GNP Crescendo label. Richrath continued to perform for several years before disbanding in the late 1990s. In September 1998, Gary Richrath briefly joined REO onstage at the County Fair in Los Angeles to play on the band’s encore song, “157 Riverside Avenue”. He rejoined REO in Los Angeles in May 2000 for the same encore, but no serious plans for a reunion ever materialized.
But if you’re looking for a folding wagon to primarily use at the beach, we recommend paying more for the Mac Sports Heavy Duty Collapsible Folding All Terrain Utility Cart. The sturdy-yet-simple Mac Sports Collapsible Folding Outdoor Utility Wagon is what most people are probably looking for in a folding wagon—a versatile, easy-to-use, lighter wagon at a reasonable price. The Mac Sports Wagon weighs 22.5 pounds and can hold up to 150 pounds of gear.
In fact, with this wagon’s design, you will be able to conveniently transport up to 225 pounds. It also features an innovative folding tailgate so you can load and unload items effortlessly, as well as haul longer items. And to make hauling easier, this wagon has an extension handle.

You will be able to haul items of all sizes and weights thanks to the sturdy steel frame and heavy-duty oversized 7-inch wheels for traversing terrains of all types. Like the Mac Sports Heavy Duty Collapsible Folding All Terrain Utility Cart (our pick for use on sand), the Mac Sports Outdoor wagon has an easy-to-use handle. Of all the folding wagons we tested, this Mac Sports wagon was the most adept at making sharp and navigating grass or concrete. For the first round of testing in 2019, I used each wagon on trips to my son’s elementary school, traveling about half a mile each way over sidewalks and city streets during the course of two months. I also took them to the beach, rolling them down the beach path and testing them on the sand.
The Mac Sports wagon’s skinny rubber wheels, compared with larger-wheeled models we tested, sunk into the sand a bit during testing. This wasn’t too problematic when the wagon was carrying an average load (beach chairs, towels, drinks, and snacks). But with a kid or two added to the mix, this wagon’s wheels started to drag deeper. We think the Mac Sports wagon is fine for occasional beach use, especially if your gear is more bulky than heavy and you don’t have to travel too far to your spot.
If the beach wagon itself is heavy, that may make using it more cumbersome. The Gorilla Carts wagon, which scored as our best all-terrain option, is easily the lightest of the bunch — weighing only 13.5 pounds without extra equipment inside. On the other hand, the Moon Lence Wagon weighs the most at 30.7 pounds, but this is attributed to its larger body and heavier metal frames. The heavier options may be more durable in the long run, and no wagon on our list is too heavy for one person to operate. With an even larger weight capacity than the Moon Lence wagon, this budget pick is sturdy enough to carry all your beach chairs, groceries, and sports equipment. Reviewers love how easily the wagon collapses for storage, as well as the large capacity that makes heavy trips a breeze.
