Are there recognised makes as being the Ferrari of the Wheel Barrow world? Buy them a garden trolley instead. It will make their life so much easier. I got mine for a lot less than this locally. http://www.mower-magic.co.uk/acatalo...ley_Carts.html How about the electric wheelbarrow I saw in B&Q last week. Sorry I didn't really take in much detail about it but I think it was about £150 I strongly advise against both of those. Trolleys need a LOT more space, and electric wheelbarrows are a gimmick much like a Sinclair C5. In both cases, they might be appropriate for smallholdings, or the occasional garden with a lot of open space and not too many plants, but not otherwise. The best maker of metal wheelbarrows I know of is Haemmerlin, and they last for decades. Buy an inner tube for it at the same time (seriously). I prefer heavy-duty plastic ones (the cheap lightweight ones are hopeless), but they are tricky to get. Buy an inner for one of them, too. Regards, Nick Maclaren. |
