Im never going to buy this folder cart ever again. The car flops all the time, uncontrollable, and as an experienced golfer, this is a disappointment. If I had the option to refund, I would refund it without hesitation.

I used it all last summer and played about 30 rounds with the Volt so these are impressions based on a fair amount of usage. I think it's a good cart but does have some things which could be improved. First off, the good. for an electric push cart, it's very light and compact. It's only 29 lbs fully loaded and folds up almost as compact as my previous Nitron Bag Boy. I also considered the new Alphard and the MGI Navigator but they both weighed about 40 lbs. This was very important to me as I wanted something light and easy to lift in and out of my car. The thing is also easy to drive and the remote control feels good in the hand. Now the cons. I feel this thing needs more juice. Bag Boy promises 36 holes and while that may be true on flat courses, I typically play on courses which are somewhat hilly. I usually play an 18 and then a 9 in a typical week and the thing is down to one bar. Could it make it? Maybe, but I don't want to test it out. The second cons is this thing need better rear wheels! If I play early in the morning with still some wetness on the grass, the cart will not climb a steep hill. Even once the grass is dry, I still usually have to give it some assist. In summary, it's a solid cart that meets my needs but it could stand some improvement. Give us a longer battery and improve the traction on the rear wheels and then it would be perfect!

I've had this Volt since it came out and the nice feature is the folding for transport, that is the main reason I got it. The problems with the Volt is the narrow wheel base increases the tipping problem, the battery in the remote had to be replaced early on, the manual controls are not useful so just turn off the battery and push it, the Volt will stop abrubtly and or turn abruptly so be careful it doesn't run into you are someone else. I don't have an issue with Bag Boy but this Volt was not well thought out and I'm sure they know now because I'm not the only review that mentions these same issues.

I really wanted to love this product but unfortunately I have to give it a 1-star rating. Since I bought it 18 months ago; I have to return it twice to get a replacement. Connection failures on inserting a fully charged battery meant it wouldn’t power on. I received the latest model in December and a fully charged battery lasts about 3.5 hours. I don’t use the remote anymore as frankly I don’t trust the cart not to tip over going up hills. It doesn’t handle hills well both from a steadiness perspective but also struggles up hills without manual guidance (and pushing) I don’t usually write reviews but this is not a cheap investment and I need Bag Boy to do better with this product. Other reviews have mentioned lack of practical design like phone and score card holders. I agree with sentiment but I could have overlooked that if the product did the basics well.

I now have 255 miles or about 50 rounds on my Volt. I am still getting two rounds per charge. The same thing that is a plus for this cart, (weight, storage, compaction, battery life, manual maneuverability) is its downfall. It tips over way too easily when it encounters any side or abrupt upslope and downslopes. It won’t hold a straight tracking line with the front wheel in swivel mode. It bounces all over the place requiring constant course correction. The “console” is useless for anything other than small items. It certainly won’t hold a scorecard conveniently or at all. Because the cart is continually requiring course correction which puts friction on the tires, they are wearing out rapidly.

I've been using this since April and overall it's a good cart, that being said the anti-tip wheel while just brushing grass is the loudest thing ever. It only makes this awful noise when the anti-tipping wheel is brushing grass, not when it's not or the wheel is engaged. And yes it is adjustable, but if you set it too high so the heel doesn't brush rough length grass it tip over super easy on anything other than perfectly flat ground. It needs to be re-done with a better fitting sprocket. It also lacks good traction so it can be difficult to steer going down hills, like really difficult. However the ease of switching it to manual makes this a solvable issue. One other tweak could be making it less reactive, at speed it turns way too quickly. Overall it's great though and if that anti-tip wheel gets quieted down I'd add another star.

My third year with the cart - three wheels not suited for hills - If i had to do over I would not purchase this item It has tipped very several times

I needed a push cart to help with walking more than 9 holes and take the pressure off my back. The Volt is a really nice addition. Controls nicely and easy to maintain. Has all the features you need and plenty of storage. Def check it out.

I have had the Volt for about 5 months and use it at lease once a week. The only issue I have is with the buttons on the remote. The direction arrows should be raised a little so you can feel them and use with needing to look at the remote.

I love the cart. Battery is light and easy to charge and install. The remote works great. Two minuses: 1. Manual “walk along” mode is hard to set to the speed you want. 2. Scorecard holder on the inside is useless. There needs to be a holder on the outside of the storage space (like the manual BagBoy cart).

Pros: Great Cart, easy to lift and get in the car. Storage compartment is good Cons: Wish it had a brake for when it is in the car. It rolls around. Wish the wheels turned less abruptly, it is a bit jerky when turning. It does not go up big hills, either need to help it or go around them. Doesn't get great traction in the dessert if on any kind of incline. Wish scorecard could attach to fit on top of the storage compartment.

I bought this cart a couple months ago and have 122 miles on it (yes it has a trip and total distance odometer). I like that it maneuvers like a non-electric push cart when you put it in manual mode or turn the battery off. Also the storage plastic bin plus the bag under it has plenty of room. I’ve noted three design/use issues. First, in order to take the battery out to recharge it, you have to remove the bag. I store my cart and bag at the club, so every time I arrive and leave, I’m removing and replacing the bag. Second, it’s tippy. It takes some time to get used to when you run over a root or rock, or go up a hill, where you need to be close to “assist” on the handle to avoid a tip over. Finally, the score card holder is useless at least for standard cards the I generally use. The space in the plastic bin cover is not wide or tall enough to allow the cover to close when a card is in the holder. One last item, the cart tends to “twitch” to the right even when traveling on a flat and level paved path. Overall, I like it better than my friends’ MotoCaddy and Stewart versions. Nice and quiet as well.

Have had the cart for two weeks and why I didn't take this into consideration before I bought .... the set up for keeping score using a score card is miserable. The course card gets jammed into the flip up compartment that is really too crowded for the card making easy access impossible. They need to design a accessory attachment for easy use and accessibility for keeping score.

I have had this now for 6 weeks and have found the product to be gratifying. I was a previous owner of an original Bag Boy Navigator which lasted 17 years and still going thus prompted me to move into a better and lighter world regarding materials and the battery. Our course front is a very hilly up and down track which shows the new Volt's weaknesses. I have found I need to be close or walk with it going up and down to prevent a "digger" but I am not pushing it just guiding. I attribute this to such light material construction and a very light front end. As for our back 9 its flatter but still with inclines but the cart manages things just fine. Many more positives than negatives starting with battery lightness, cart lightness and ability to move right in a manual mode and pushing is so easy! Battery can go an easy 36 and if i favor the back 9 I could go at least 1 more 9 with some intervention of manual mode. Controls are easy and remote is excellent. Storage if great and the attachment top lock system has not failed even in the two tip overs I have had. All in all this is a good product compared to the vast selections out there of electric carts. I have recommended this cart and many have followed with purchases from our pro shop hope it lasts as long as my original Navigator

I bought this product several months ago but finally received it recently when it came back in stock. I did have my first chance to use it this past weekend and was very disappointed. First, the battery did not even last 18 holes. I had to manually push the cart the final two holes. Second, the cart was ineffective at navigating steeper hills even though they were small. When going uphill the cart would swing against the hill and reverse direction and travel back down the hill. The only way I could manage the smaller hills was to guide the cart myself.
