Most importantly, it prevents injury, as you no longer need to push aircraft by hand. We have connections for various aircraft with and without wheel pants.

The unit way bigger than he thought it was going to be, but he LOVES it. Loves that it is a nice industrial unit - not just a motor on stick. He's been running his plane around for just fun. He's really happy with our product and service.

I love it. Really is an awesome machine. Thanks for getting my caddy built and shipped promptly. I would recommend this unit to others.

I’ve had my 4K Jr. AircraftCaddy for 3 years. It's been 100% reliable. Overall, I could not be more pleased with my caddy. It has taken all of the work out of moving my airplane. It does it quietly, unobtrusively, and easily. It's definitely one of the best purchases I’ve made since owning an airplane.

My husband loves it. He took his plane out of the hanger and pulled it to have gas put in. He said that it pulls his plane great and was very easy to use. I have to say, he wasn't too sure when he first got it because of the size and weight of the unit, but once he used it he is loving it. Thanks again for working with me to set him up with the AircraftCaddy unit.

I look forward to getting plane out of the hanger and putting away is easy!

Easy to refer people to you/your AircraftCaddy unit when you have such a great product.

We have been using the tug for about 8 months now and it is absolutely awesome. I kick myself every time I use it for being so stupid to have used the tractor for 11 years!!!

Stewart M.

The AircraftCaddy works great! I am really impressed by the quality and by the service I have received from your company. Having lived 7 years in Rochester, I am very familiar with the Minnesota work ethic so this does not surprise me at all! Thanks again!

This thing is worth every penny. I am the envy of the airport and even lent it to my hanger neighbor yesterday to get his twin in.

It's an awesome product. I bought it about a year ago, and I love it! I've used a variety of things to move my aircraft, but this is perfect for moving my KingAir.

Proven Success

The CartCaddyLite electric cart puller can help avoid back strain for many people in the healthcare industry. Doctors, nurses, technicians, maintenance workers, and more can benefit from using this piece of equipment to efficiently complete some of their day-to-day tasks, all while avoiding unnecessary workplace injuries.

Improved Safety & Efficiency

Linen carts used to transport linens to and from patient rooms are often very large and difficult to move through the constricted hallways of a nursing home, clinic, or hospital. Pushing carts repeatedly throughout the day can cause chronic neck and back strain and pain for workers. The CartCaddyLite is a perfect solution: it reduces stress and cuts down the risk of workplace injuries.
