Jet Sled, Large Heavy-Duty Utility Sleds for Hauling Ice Fishing Supplies, Fire Wood, Deer, Duck Hunting, Fishing Gear and Accessories

I usually have all of my firewood in under my overhang but this year was different. I only brought a chord or so in under my overhang. I am rotating. So, my racks, other than the one under the overhang, are about 100 feet away. I usually wheelbarrow when the ground is solid. Well, February has been a very snowy month for us so far. 12 inches, then 6 and then 3. No melt. I ran out of wood in the overhang and looked for a solution. Obviously the wheelbarrow was out. I found this sled ... read the reviews and decided on the camo one after someone said they used it for hunting and had a hard time finding it because of the camo. So, when I store it outside my shed it won't stand out.It took me a few days to use it. The thing is very sturdy and dragging it over terrain other than snow, I don't expect to not scrape it here and there.In the time it took me to finally use it I was thinking I would need a wench or maybe a harness that I saw as a related item. But I don't think you need either.I installed the, included, rope to the sled. My approach was to fish one end of the rope through one whole and double not the rope on the end and then do the same thing on the other side. Works well and the nots tightened up fine. I pulled it over the foot and a half or so of snow. It was very easy, obviously, as it was empty. My first load I only filled to the brim of the sled. I wasn't sure what effort there might be and didn't want to overdo it. I pulled it to my overhang with ease and even pulling it over the brick patio of the overhang was easy. I wanted to stack it so the only thing is you need to bend over to get and stack.My next load I filled it to as much as I could without any of the wood falling out. It was filled to max. Again, pulling this sled over the snow was hardly any effort at all. This load I took right to my garage. I figured at this point it's so easy that when the sled is empty from my burn I will just go out to the wood pile in the back and sled another load in. It's that easy. Of course over part of my driveway took a little more effort than the snow but this sled made it possible to get my firewood out by my shed after some substantial snowfalls. I may even buy a second so I can put two loads in the garage.Great product! Well, made and fit my current needs. And who knows what else I can find to use it for.

This Shappell Jet Sled has been an asset to us thus far since acquiring a few months ago. It has been durable and steady and capable of carry its recommended capacity. We found the size to be accurately depicted as per description and it is just want we needed around our homestead. It is extremely versatile and we have used it to carry things around the home, in the woods, and in different weather. We purchased this sled in hopes of using it to help us unburden ourselves and increase/maximize our carrying ability and it has definitely lived up to its expectations. The only thing that I would change about it is I would upsize it even more if I had the ability to do so. I do enjoy that it is lightweight and I can handle it independently as can even a child if need be. It is a welcome addition to your outdoor adventures and you will enjoy it immensely if you purchase it. It would make a good Fathers Day (or Mothers Day) gift or just an additional to the families “toys” for hauling fishing/hunting equipment and much much more around the home.

We have found so many uses for this and it is not even winter yet! We live on the lake in Maine and have hauled loam, sand, rocks, sod, plants and wood in the sled. The most recent and most fun use is that we put about 2 inches of water in the bottom and let our 16 mo old grandson use it as his 'swimming pool' completely supervised of course. He enjoyed splashing around , playing with floating toys, nd squirting with the garden hose. It could also serve as a great sandbox for little ones. Too much fun.Recommend for anyone looking for a real workhorse !

The media could not be loaded. We bought this pull our son around in the snow! We attached it to our 4 wheeler with rope and off we went! It worked great! We took it around multiple times in a big field, hitting a few bumps along the way and it held up perfectly. No cracks or damage so we are good to go for next year! I have nothing bad to say about it, I have no regrets so don’t hesitate to purchase!My son is roughly about 55-60lbs. I also got in the sled with him and we both rode and it still held up perfect! Highly recommend!

Sled seems sturdy for price. Not too heavy, but not light.It did NOT come with the tow rope as stated in the description. It has 2 small holes towards the front to makeshift something.

The media could not be loaded. I didn't buy it for the reason to use it as a boat. 🤣 Just was having fun and testing how much it could hold if it needed to float in water! I'm 172 pounds and it held me out of the water!I love the design, color is nice and it's going to be a great help when I get it out there hunting to help me transport gear! Some may wonder why it doesn't come with pull rope. I perfer it not because then I can customize my own how I like it. :)

Works well for hauling duck gear and deer out of woods

I've found myself using this a lot more than I anticipated. Everything from hunting to moving firewood and gear. Very durable. The rope handle they provide does the job but should be longer so you don't have to worry about catching your heels. Slightly larger diameter rope would be nice, to better distribute the weight on your hands when dragging heavy loads.
