The front wheels appear to be stuck on swivel. It will be a pain for me to return so I'm thinking about just keeping it. Why do I need it locked?

You really only need them locked if you are on rough terrain. Like sand, or heavy mud (although not sure you would ever be in mud!) I have had mine for 2 years and have never locked the front wheels. Actually more annoying pushing a stroller with the front wheels locked- so hard to turn!

I always leave on swivel! It makes it easier to maneuver around. Only time u would need in lock position is if running or something. It is truly the best stroller! I absolute love!!!

There is a lock on the front wheel make sure that it is unlocked. It that happened to me once before but if unlocked it works great

The swivel wheels do not lock, they just swivel to go in the direction you steer them. As for assembly, I had no problem, in fact the front swivel wheels may already have been attached. Even if they weren't it they are easy to put on, just four nuts and bolts each. It took me about 10 minutes to put the cart together and most of that was making sure that I got the washers in the right order for the rear wheels. I have found this cart to be most useful and I am fully satisfied with it. The only minor thing is that there is a clicking sound from the front wheels when they roll and other than that this is a great cart.

No the wheels don't lock, but i haven't had a reason to lock them. It does not move unless it is pushed.

The front wheels do not swivel. I believe this is a safety feature and for what I've seen of it's use, it is a good thing they don't.

The wheel in the front swivels but the rear wheels follow the handlebars. You'll never have to back up to turn - I highly recommend it.

No you cannot because it clamps to the frame. When you turn the front wheel, the frame is stationary but the wheel is not.

I just recently got mine. The wheels on mine are not good quality. The front wheel will not swivel.

No, unfortunately that was something I learned after having purchased the trainer. It comes with a quick release skewer to replace on your wheel and that is how the wheel locks into the trainer.

I have purchased two of these. The first one, I was a bit overzealous and really pounded the wheels on hard-thinking I didn't want them to come off. That DID make the wheels hard to turn. I do not know if you can loosen them, or not. I was not able o get mine loosened. The second one, I did not make that mistake, and the wheels turn good.

If you buy the key lock kit, the front wheel will not be released easly... (But if thief has time, I believe so...).

My experience has been that the surface can be somewhat bumpy, but it makes it difficult to make turns since the front wheels will lock.

Does it say you can lock the wheels? I am unaware of that. We don't lock ours and don't think you can.

I am reasonably sure the wheels do not lock and no, that is not a problem for me. I have been happy with the product.

I didn't have any problems with the front wheels. Not sure what the problem could be. So sorry you've been having problems with yours.

It's designed to be locked, however, if you leave the top clamp loose, it will spin. I honestly don't think it would cause any damage to do so.

Mine cannot be locked, it will swivel at all locations of the slide. But I love mine, good and strong, well made !!!!
