The ifrothgolf review
The Z1 is Motocaddy's entry-level three-wheel push trolley. It is an aluminium frame that folds in two steps down to a compact 850 x 360 x 500mm, weighs about 6kg, and rolls on oversize maintenance-free rubber tyres. You get the full Motocaddy feature kit at this price: a foot parking brake, three handle height settings, quick-release wheels, drink and scorecard holders, an accessory compartment, tee and ball holders, an umbrella fitting, and EASILOCK bag compatibility.
What's great
For the money it is genuinely hard to fault on features. The two-step fold is quick and the folded footprint is small enough to live in most boots without a fight. The wheels track straight and roll easily, the foot brake holds firmly on slopes, and the build feels like a real Motocaddy rather than a cheap imitation. The 24-month warranty and EASILOCK compatibility (the same locking system as the pricier models) are reassuring at this end of the range.
Worth knowing
At 6kg it is not the lightest push trolley out there, and the folded size, while compact, is not as tidy as Motocaddy's own CUBE if boot space is tight. The accessory holders are functional rather than premium, and EASILOCK only matters if you also run a Motocaddy bag, otherwise it is a standard bag-strap setup. Colour choice is limited to two graphite combos, and the listed price drifts between roughly 120 and 160 depending on retailer and promotions, so it pays to shop around.
The verdict
If you walk and want a no-nonsense push trolley from a brand that will still be around to honour the warranty, the Z1 is one of the smartest buys in the budget bracket. It is a touch heavier than the lightest rivals, but the feature set, folding and brand backing make that easy to forgive.
