I'm torn between that and the cheaper heavy duty b&q one.

we ordered one of these off of E-Bay, looks like it will do the trick with a couple of bungie ropes.....much better than last year having to carry all our stuff in!!!

I've ordered one too. Usually take a smaller version. The main benefit is you that pull it one handed. The B&Q version is two hands pushing and you support the weight.

The foot plate is bigger too, so you can stack more on.

Hasn't arrived yet, but i'm all excited about it!

Ive got the "MK 1".

Looks and seems sturdy enough. Not used it in anger yet but fingers crossed it'll be up to the job.

The wheels looks a bit plastic and iffy tbh but that style, if its a proper fishing trolley that costs a small fortune, then it should see you right...ok strike that...just went back to look properly at the blurb with teh pic and it says the tyres are pneumatic.

Regardless of how heavy you fill up the trolley, taking into consideration the corrugations on the walkways is what often buggers up and breaks the trolleys.

Pneumatic tyres are always the best option. The heavier duty sack truck is probably the better one to go with. Our lot swears by them....BUT...

That style of trolley linkied saw me right in 04 bringing a fecking ridiculous amount of pre-mixed cocktails onto site...20+ 2 litre bottles on my own and through the mud from West 25 to Park Home. Ok, so now I have a back injury sustained then that has never been fixed and is now so bad the osteo costs are going to be through the roof but it was worth using my mate's fishing trolley for the results of the cocktails!

I've just bought a fishing trolley off ebay that is very similar in style for 25 quid with pneumatic wheels etc etc - hopefully it should do the job. I figured the seat style base is wider than a standard sack truck and will be a bit easier for me to load things onto which is important to me as i'm going down by myself and taking friends tents to pitch. Also, its only 1m high which gives me the option (not being all that tall) to push it comfortably if I need to as I have a bit of a knackered back - and dragging a trolley the mile or so to the campsite is going to pretty much crucify me!

Thankfully hubby and mates will be able to get it all back to the car on Monday whilst I saunter along!

I've cable tied a tesco delivery crate to mine. Makes it wider and means I can carry more loose stuff on it.

What the ebay one you all bought that is similar but cheaper? I contacted the sellers and asked them if it breaks at Glasto can I have a full refund when I get back. Just waiting to hear back!

Really pleased with this find - have now ordered this one after seeing loads on the internet that looked like they would break on the uneven ground. Thanks!
