"Ames" 002236VB Company Wheelbarrow Replacement Handles

Description was exact, pricing was good worked great as it should

The handles fit perfectly on my metal wheelbarrow, but I expected them to be stronger. They're probably made from Yellow Pine instead of a good hard Oak. Nonetheless, I won't be lifting very heavy loads anymore because of a bad back, so I kept the handles.

Good quality useful to fix an old wheelbarrow

These fit my 6 yd. True Temper perfectly; all of the holes were in the right place and aligned properly, but be aware that the holes won't necessarily align with your fasteners.The product listing gives the dimensions as 55.5" x 1.25" x 1.5", but further down, in the Product Description, it states "Dimensions: 60W x 1. 5D x 3H in.", which is incorrect; Actual dimensions are 1⅛ wide x 1⅝ thick. My old handles were 1¼ square, but since the original fasteners are longer than they needed to be, everything went together fine.The handles are painted black and so it's hard to tell just what species the wood is, but the extra thickness will help with strength; ⅜" doesn't seem like much but it amounts to 30% thicker.I looked for wheelbarrow handles at Home Depot and the only replacement handles they had were too large (2 x 2 x 60"), not pre-drilled, and are sold individually and cost about $15 ea. The Amazon handles are a bargain at $22 / pr.

I guess things change over time, like same size potato chip bag, same price, but less contents or toilet paper 1/4" narrower with a bigger diameter tube in the middle. These handles are lower quality & smaller with pre-drilled holes that didn't match my old ones. For the price I guess OK, had to do a lot of drilling for bolt hole location to line up & I won't be overloading the wheelbarrel.

The product is a very soft wood that will probably not stand the test of time. Drilled holes were close to fit up but may require enlarging to fit properly. Leaving a wheelbarrow outside with these light duty handles could end up costing you more out of pocket expense for handles. My opinion, your experience may be different.

I had no problem with the item even though I had to drill a hole (minor problem) the problem is that I received two pair I only needed one. That is why I am returning one

It is the same size as the broken wood handles, and it has holes and fits my wheelbarrow very well. The product description says "made of thick wood with a natural seal-coated finish" , but it feels like vinyl material, and I think it will last for a long time.

Perfect for a replacement handle on medium light duty wheelbarrow. be prepared to drill a few holes if not exactly the same model.

Handles would be better suited if longer.

Perfect fit, holes lined up nicely. Great value.
