Tried to get a replacement wheelbarrow pan from them. They epitomise everything wrong with British manufacturing; disinterested, unprofessional, chaotic, contradictory. I’m told they have the pans,... See more

An excellent barrow

The barrow that I purchased looks good and was simple to assemble. There is just a very slight twist on the plastic pan but it is barely noticeable and is not a problem. The wheel actually has bearings!

Excellent service

Excellent service. Super wheelbarrow and adds a lovely pop of colour to my garden. I have it nestled into a bed and it’s charming.

Pity it is not better.....

Delivered rapidly and assembled ready-to-go. My main disappointment is that the rear rests are very close together and when pushing the wheelbarrow, my feet routinely kick the bars - they are considerably closer together than my other wheelbarrow. The heads of the bolts holding the barrow to the frame were proud and not fitted particularly well so when shovelling stuff out of the barrow, the shovel gets caught on the bolt head which is annoying. Finally, I chose the pneumatic tyre which I regret as it has already burst and I have retro-fitted a different wheel. I know it is just a wheelbarrow and it is as good as anything else but it is a shame it is not better designed to make it the best, annoyingly for no additional cost of manufacture.

Good frame but plastic colour fades

I ordered the yellow barrow originally but it didn’t arrive. I called customer services and they said I’d have to wait several weeks for a yellow one. So I ordered a pink one. It has already faded from a lovely bright pink to a washed out shade. The frame is sturdy and the wheel has stood up to heavy loads but the plastic barrow part is not great quality for the price of the wheelbarrow.

Happy Days

I have gone through a number of dilapidated,abused , orphaned and geriatric wheeled wheelbarrows for a number of years with mounting frustration and a sense of hopelessness when you know the tyre will be flat;the slope will rub on the wheel,the bolts have rusted so the tray will keep slipping about and when you tip it all falls apart.
And then! Wheelbarrows uk! The BEST.Easy to assemble,nice and big,Well made and easy to clean.Deep Joy!

I would have awarded 5 stars but the barrow arrived with a large dent in it! Doesn’t really effect the barrow’s performance but slightly reduces its capacity. Not the seller’s fault as the dent was probably caused in transit.

An excellent service

An excellent service: the online catalogue is clearly set out and easy to negotiate and select from; payment very straightforward; and the goods arrived quickly and very well-packaged. Communication from the seller was speedy and accurate.

Wheely good service and barrow

I'm a fan of two -wheeled barrows and they are very hard to find -but not here. for a decent price I got exactly what I was looking for, and it's lasted since February without letting me down once. It was good to get the option of solid tyres - I was tired of being let down by let down tyres -and the galvanised body is standing up well to lots of us.

The barrow arrived promptly, was well packaged, and easy to assemble.

All round a good product from a good company.

Thank you

I chose this barrow due to its two wheel design along with its larger than standard capacity. The barrow is around 3 times more expensive than a traditional builders barrow but far better built. Unfortunately that’s where the good part of the review ends. It has suffered from a slow leaking valve that resulting in a flat tyre every time I come to use it, it is also cumbersome when navigating around obstacles compared to a standard single wheel barrow and struggles to fit through doorways.
I am a big believer in British Engineering and a true advocate for buying British, however in this case I wished I’d have bought a traditional single wheel version. Apologies for the directness of my review but you did ask me to be honest.
