Hi apperrault,

I have the cart and would highly recommend the one that ST sells. It fits perfectly together and also brings it to a nice height. I wouldn't have a 1400 without the cart.

I live in Michigan and it works great in the winter.

I use the power washer on my racks most of the time.

Thanks guys!
