Teammates-
Greetings. I'm the proud owner of Club Booster V2 + Omni Cart + Sidekick (SK) bundle. All of my items work exceptionally well. I've had the items out on the course here in California and it's AWESOME! The directions are easy to follow and I spend several sessions practicing in my back yard to gain and understanding of how the SK worked before I went out on the course. All of the items are easy to recharge and they re-charge very quickly, again no issues. I'm pleased with my purchase--way to go ALPHARD!

I ordered the bundle and love it. Still waiting for the sidekick portion but love the v2 booster and push cart. Works great. Look forward to getting the sidekick soon

Overall I am somewhat satisfied; I absolutely love walking and not having to push and steer the cart. But equally, I absolutely hate having to fidget with The Forward “F” button when re-engaging the cart to make certain the cart is in follow mode. I spend an inordinate amount of time making sure the cart is engaged.
Right now I’m torn as to whether or not the two extremes feelings are worth it.
Pros
- Makes walking very comfortable
- Relatively easy to set up
- Cart stores compactly
- Overall price is excellent
Cons
- You constantly have to play with the remote “F” button to make certain the cart is in follow mode. This is very annoying.
- Cart is somewhat sporadic and lunges forward when first connected.

Cart is faulty. Goes 10 yards forwards and then violently turns left or right. Avoid.

Never received my Sidekick. I know I was told they could arrive separately but now my order shows complete and I am missing a very important and EXPENSIVE part of my order. Any help would be appreciated…

Have used for 4 rounds now. In a little snow too. Works great. No tire chains needed..

Love the V2 and Omni cart. I haven’t received the sidekick yet. Please expedite!

I had a foresight forecaddy. It was “unstable”. The design seemed optimized for weight and folding into a compact package and they made a poor choice with the “joy stick” remote. The alphard has made different choices. I love my alphard once set up and loaded with my bag. Remote is awesome, super stable. Easy to control and send it exactly where you want. So much better than the forecaddy, in my opinion.
The “cons”. Since the alphard is the rear wheels for the cart, once removed the car is burdensome. It folds fine, but doesn’t lock in a folded state and doesn’t carry easily. The alphard wheels have a great carrying handle and is easy to transport, but once removed from the cart (so you can fold the cart) make sure you have the wheels under control as they can roll away.
Battery is easy to remove and charge, but requires a special cable (supplied). They is due to another design choice which enables the charging connector to be sealed against moisture when not being charged.
Overall, the alphard seems to have been designed by electrical and mechanical engineers vs the forecaddy which I think was designed by software and optical engineers.
I would have given it 5 stars if the cart folded and locked folded to make it easier to transport,
I have not received the sidekick yet, so I have not been able to test that.

Great cart and wheels. Just wish I could get more than 1 round from the battery

Cart is fun to use with the remote. I’ve used the regular remote 2 times on the course now and I’m getting the hang of it. I also have the Omni Sidekick remote and have tried it at the local park. Works much better in the front of the bag but I have to turn the bag sideways in order to use the clip. This makes it awkward to get to all of the compartments on the bag.
I will try the Sidekick remote the next time on the course and hope that I can figure out how to use the arrow buttons on that remote when in the FL mode. The cart will follow me but doesn’t respond to the arrow commands. I think it isn’t sync’d properly to arrow directions on the SK remote.
Otherwise, I’m enjoying being able to walk freely and not push a cart. My shoulders and back feel less stressed after a full round. Thanks!

Best product ever.. My friends are so jealous. It’s everything I thought it would be and more…

I love the V2 and Omni Cart! I love walking the courses, especially without pushing a cart or carrying my bag. I appreciate the wide wheel base and the stability of the cart. I play with friends who have other brands, and they've all tipped over at some point - not the Alphard! I'm still playing with the "follow-me" function. I don't know yet whether my difficulty is user or equipment error.
Steve P.
I would appreciate a phone call to discuss my concerns.

Haven't been able to use it yet as Wisconsin golf doesn't allow play tis time of year! Looking forward to writing a great review.
I found assembling the cart was difficult due to multiple sets of brackets with no guidance as to which to use. Directions overall were minimal and resulted in multiple attempts to get the job done.
Got no response from customer service when I reached out for help.
I'm sure I'll be happy with the product but the experience leaves something to be desired. ** out of ***** for the total Alphrad rating.
Fletcher R.
I would give it a five but I have difficulty getting the follow me mode to work properly. It will often stop following and you have to go with the regular remote. That has not been a problem; it works perfectly in that mode.
William R.
I finally bought the V2 package, cart, motor, and sidekick. Walking 18 is much more enjoyable now.
Very pleased with the quality of the items and the purchase transaction.

The cart would be better with two front wheels. The Side Kick has been difficult to work. Ii have used mostly the rei remote. I need to take the time to practice with it and if I still have problems, I will call.
Baron
The cart is fantastic and works great with the remote control. Got the sidekick with it but the follow feature is way off. Have to contact them about fine tuning cart trailing
and/or following left or right. Once that works, it’ll be the best cart out there.
Byron L.
Great purchase. Works like a charm.

Bought the package during the Black Friday weekend. Club booster and sidekick arrived but Omni cart never arrived even after over a month.
Miguel D.
Excellent customer service. Highly recommended.
