Backpack Trolley
« on: August 11, 2007, 11:20:57 am »
I received my weekly news letter from Maplins today and found this on offer.
http://www.maplin.co.uk/Module.aspx?ModuleNo=97489&C=newsletter&U=07P09-2&T=-11870858

Looks like the perfect size for the Backpack anyone else have one of these or similar?

My Backpack will definitely come in very handy for a few jobs, the weight isn’t really a problem with me although the strap buckles do dig in a bit and restricts movements especially when you need to bend down. So a trolley may be the best solution.

Absolute junk!

Sorry but its true!

I tried one when I first set out with wfp and it lasted about 1 week. It was good to start with.

Its just flimsy and the build quality isn't that good.

But then again I did have a 25L barrel and pump box attached to it. :-[

You must have had a faulty one, they have a 40kg capacity. But saying that I wouldn't trust it to carry 40kg.

Bought mine from maplins, been using it for about 5 months now now problems, Just use it for the backpack.

Yer 20 pound is not cheap it is about normal for a trolly of that standard.
Dont argue with a retard, they will just pull you down to their level and beat you with experience.
