Please note below any of the areas listed that you have experienced
problems with, or are dissatisfied with.

Operation - Control (moving, turning, lifting) We deliberately choose a
two wheel barrow for stability, and less control problems
Stability no problem
Loading, unloading no problem
Storage larger than normal
Size & shape-related

Volume (too small/large/OK) OK
Weight (too light/heavy/OK) OK

Maintenance (moving parts, cleaning, corrosion) galvanised and plastic no
problem

What do you think of how it looks ? don't care
