PROS: Price is Excellent! Folding for storage/carrying in trunk is great, Powerful Motor and will climb any hill, Remote control works long distance stops/starts quickly w/great speed control. Love the hub motors and its very quiet. Under manual use w/o remote everything is perfect except for the fact that you have to nudge it forward to get the unit started. (Hear the new one coming doesn't do that)One remote control went bad and was replaced promptly. Then later remote control quick working and they quickly sent me information by email to reprogram the remote and in a few minutes it was working again.

CONS: If you have flat ground it works good, if there's a slight grade or hill it will turn and go up the hill. If the hill is any size the remote will not turn the wheels to come back down. You just have to go get it. Have to constantly keep finger on remote as it will disappear who knows where! Easy to tip over with short base/width. Screws on bottom of handle have to be tightened everyday b/c they get so loose. Probably will eventually give major trouble. On cart path it's almost impossible to go in straight line as remote turns the wheels so quick it goes from side to side. My club fairways are Zoysia grass..a NO NO for this cart. Most used one at my club is the Kangaroo and they will track anywhere, even on side of a hill going sideways. Cart is kinda aggravating. Would I buy this brand again...Probably NOT!

None, but have watched my golf buddies and the brands that I've seen that does not have (remote/tracking)this problem are Lectrix, Kangaroo, PowaCaddy. What I can see is that the Kangaroo has the best remote control and tracking.

This cart is obviously the remote-controlled version of what used to be marketed in Canada as the Jaguar D200 by the now-defunct WildCat Carts. We bought two of them and in less than one season's use had three motherboard failures. The three year warranty is now useless since the company mysteriously disappeared and my only recourse is to buy the part from the factory in China for $75US and install it myself, which is no easy matter. At the moment I am trying to obtain the part from the Australian distributor (http://mobilegolfequipment.com.au/products.htm) rather than from China, being a bit unsure of the security of internet transactions with that country.

This is by far the best remote control electric caddie on the market. I have had them all, from orginal Sun Mountain, to the new E-cart and the top of the line Kangaroo. This cart has as much power as the Kangaroo, with the convenience and ease of the Sun Mountain E-cart, for a lot less money. You can't beat the value when you consider the fact that you are getting a remote control cart. Don't think that it is cheap and "can't be worth it", due to the low price. It is worth twice the money. If you are looking for a remote control electric cart, this is the one to get.

Fantastic. Haven't had to use them for any problems, just dealt with them on the purchase and just getting up to speed on how the caddybugs works etc.

I've used my cart for about a month now, and am very pleased. I am particularly thrilled the simplicity of set-up and the silence of the cart. I used a Kangaroo for about ten years, and it was much more cumbersome, with lots of pieces to assemble and wires to hook up. In addition, the Kangeroo was very noisy to operate, making me self-conscious about disturbing playing partners. With some practice, I've learned when and where I can operate the Caddybug remotely and when it is safer to stay in manual mode. It freewheels easily, starts in left or right turn mode, goes in reverse, brakes well on downslopes and stops quickly. My old electric caddy did none of these things. Finally, the price is very reasonable.

ilove the dam thing!

I want to tell you I am absolutly happy with my purchase of this caddy. I had a Lektronic caddy which I paid 1500$ for and I was satisfied but the noise from the two motors after five years of use was too much. My fellow players are surprised by the absence of noise from my new Caddybug. I am very happy with this purchase. By the way, I bought it while in Florida for the winter months and I took it with me to Montreal Canada. One little negative comment is with the bottom bracket which holds the push arm. It is a little weak and I'm afraid the two small screws holding it in place may fail with time. Something should be done about that.

I bought my Caddybug last summer and I must say overall I'm extremely happy with it. Aside from drawing envy from other cart pushers/pullers, I play a very hilly course often and it really eases the pain of carrying around a heavy bag. By the end of the round I'm refreshed and I was able to walk the course versus ride to get exercise. The cart took a round or two for me to get used knowing the abilities of the remote control, but now I'm a whiz with it and haven't come close to having the cart tip over from irresponsible or risky use. When I see a terrain where the angles are too steep, I go to manual mode and walk the cart. The only other time I may not use my cart (especially on hilly courses) is when its wet, the wheels spin so fast they don't have great traction and it becomes a little frustrating. Of course I could go to manual mode, but when I use my Caddybug, I prefer using the remote. The few times I've tipped my Caddybug, I was able to essentially just plug the cord back in and it was good to go. Overall its a very sturdy cart, hard to tip and can go faster than anyone can walk. It has close to a 100 yard range I'd say, though I try to keep it within 20 yards of so, in case it finds a hole in the ground or I need to tend to it quickly. Overall between the price, the product and the service, I'd be surprised if there is a better product overall out on the market.

Customer Service

From my experience Caddybug service has been outstanding. I've needed a couple of repairs and in some instances my warranty covered it and in others, there was a modest repair fee, but service was courteous and quick (matter of 3-5 days).
