I used their finance company to purchase for a $11,000 and will be paying back $19,000 in return. They said it would take 4 to 6 week to build it and send it to me. It took them 9 weeks before I receive the cart. Now that I gotten the cart. The water heater is busted up. And I can seem to get anyone to give me answers. Bless the poor lady heart who works in the office. She tried her best to help me. But the other department is very very slow to get back at me.

I just bought a Big Dog Cart from Ben. Total piece of junk. It is built crooked. If I pull the cart over 45 mph, the bread box doors fall into the bread box. When I put them back, they will not slide. The wiring is spliced together with black electrical tape. The compartment door to the gas bottle, I had to pry open with a butter knife. The door hit me in the eye causing me to get cut and have a black eye. The cart shakes back and forth when pulling. The edges of the cart are really sharp. I have emailed and called the company multiple times wanting to resolve these issues with no luck. They will not return or even accept my phone calls. I have been ripped off for $5500, which is everything I had saved to start a new beginning. I am going to take that 16 hour round trip drive back to Tennessee and I am going to take him to court.

Benscarts.com is an amazing website! I had just lost my job and couldnt figure out what to do. But then a friend of mine told me about them and the world of information that they provide. I got in touch with the people there and they helped me in every aspect of setting up my own hot dog stand! I even bought my own hot dog cart at a very competitive from the website and got the delivery without a single hitch! Thanks to Ben and his team I am back up on my feet again.

My husband and I purchased the cash cow through Benscarts.com. The gentleman we spoke to was not as attentive to us as customers and a tad rude. The cash cow is quite basic and lacks storage space and also has no insulation from the heat. The top gets so hot you can't set anything down without it burning/melting. The quality of the cart was also lacking good craftsmanship. The interior shelves were over greased, the sink dividers were not glued down, the front wheel was so small the tread tore off within the first 3 weeks and bent and had to be replaced, and due to under greasing, we have had to replace the left wheel kit on the cart because it broke. I'm quite appalled we gave our business to a company that does not care enough to ensure that we received a good product. Thank you, but no thank you, never again.

Don't buy Chinese junk
October 29, 2021

I bought a big dog cart that's supposed to be stainless steel has a sticker inside it says made in China he says he makes them here the splash guard that he charge you a hundred and some dollars for her supposed to be saying still but it's Chinese stainless steel so it rust the sinks are supposed to be staying still but they rest Chinese junk all your cooking pans are made in China and they will rust as soon as you use them Chinese junk Chinese still does not pass health inspection if they catch it you're not by this card any of carts and they're all junk Chinese steel. The stuff of my cart started rusting inside of a garage never used also the car is put together cheaply your cooler that's on it is a cooler that looks like it came from the dollar store and they ripped the lid off and glued it in it is not stainless steel tell you the truth I don't think it's worth over $1,000

Great Cart!
June 11, 2023

Bought a Cater Pro catering cart. I don't like to call it a hot dog cart, because it really is much more than your run of the mill hot dog cart. It is so easy to work, and can do soooo many different things, that it puts you head and shoulders above other carts. One person can do a tremendous amount of service with this baby. I have gone head to head with full size catering trucks, and blown their doors off. I just wish I had bought it waaaay earlier!

Hot water heater
September 16, 2022

Purchased a hot water heater 9/2022 the one online at hotdogstore.com (Ben's) cost $197 and is totally different than I received, I contacted Keith (one that made the video of heater) and he's a smart $#*! I received a silver cheap metal heater that I am having trouble finding fittings/parts for. I sent pics to the smart $#*! to show him but I was brushed off. I also emailed Ben and never heard a word from that con artist / &-#+ google his name. I do not recommend this so called company. Duggs Dogg's also made a video of the heater shown online that they advertise at hotdogstore.com so I thought I was safe from scam but Nope! I received a silver metal piece of crap. False advertising! And it sure looks like several slingers have distant themselves from said company too. Fuvm!
