I have just bought my third sholley and I also have the Donkee. They are all brilliant and would not buy any other trolley.

Difficult to stay folded
I use my trolley every day but when it comes to folding it to go on public transport as soon as the wheel hit the floor it springs open other than that it great for help with mobility problems
Great shopping trolley
Fabulous trolley to help you along. I feel safe leaning on it as it wont tip at all. Quick delivery as well 👍
Too heavy, and transports cost over priced
Lovely Trolley, But too heavy for an elderly lady! I did explain when we bought the trolley that it was for my 93 year old mother, who had suffered a stroke! When it came, she loved the look but found it impossible to lift! Her much younger neighbour also found it very difficult to manoeuvre or fold.
I contacted them to return straight away, and was informed they send a delivery driver, to pick it up.
We had to chase the refund, and were charged £25, for the privilege of receiving an unusable item! I did not know I was being charged this till I looked at the bank statement. I feel they should be more transparent, in their charges, and inform people what they are refunding, and what they are keeping back and why.
I found them very helpful and pleasant before the sale, not so helpful after.
I have the donkee trolley
I have the donkee trolley, best trolley I have had can get a weeks shopping in it. Problem is ladies keep stopping me to ask where I have had it from, I show them the details on the trolley and they right the information down and say they will ordering one. Jeff Watt, West bromwich
average
Been thinking about getting a Sholley for a good while as had the cheaper swivel wheel trolleys from the market but they just don’t last.
Decided to take the plunge and get one with the optional extra for the cool bag. It’s a very thick bag which is good and the cool bag can detach if it’s not needed. The frame is good and you do really have to lean on it for it to tip back to get it over my door threshold. The wheels are good - lockable if needed but the swivel is brilliant. Multiple pockets are very handy and the external ones can be used for wrapping paper, flowers, umbrella etc.
The reason for my review being average is for the following reasons:
- it does fold flat but it’s still bulky and large. I have to fold it flat and wedge it across the back seats of the car as it’s just too big to go in the boot of my standard size car.
- no way can I get a weeks shopping in it, it’s nowhere near large enough for that. It probably takes a large bag for life and a half inside and I balance a bag on top on a good day.
- the lid doesn’t stay up / open when trying to load and unload.
- the base inside has just a square of cardboard! I’m getting a relative of mine to put a piece of board inside to strengthen it.
They are good trolleys in they’re own right but just a few design issues in my opinion. If you are looking to buy one of these I would strongly recommend buying one from an auction site or look at your local selling pages. I’ve seen practically brand new ones for less than £50.00 which I’d encourage people to get first and try it out. If you like it then pay the price for a brand new one from Sholley.
sholley waterproof cover
I recently bought the Mulberry combination as a replacement for the one I damaged. I then decided to buy the waterproof cover. I mentioned it was for the combination. The cover itself is fine for a sholley on it own, but is too small to fit over a sholley with a cool bag and handbag attached at the back. Having a choice of 2 sizes would be better. And the other thing it that although it fits onto a sholley, it would be a lot better if it had zips down each of the long sides, as would be a lot quicker and easier, especially if attaching in rainy weather.
Rolls Royce of shopping trolleys!
Rolls Royce of shopping trolleys - great investment! After a month's use I'm delighted - find it well designed, no problem walking with it or handle cover. Bought 'Mulberry'. Very smart. Robustly made, easily adjustable handle height, lockable brakes, large inner zipped pocket, outer side pouches and inside organiser pockets all very handy. Excellent customer service - brochure arrived in 1 day. Ordered sholley Fri am, arrived next Mon am (b4 Covid 19 stay home). I have balance problems and Sholley really helps me go to shops and doesn't look like a mobility aid. You quickly get used to how wheels work. Easy to use on buses. One sees so many older shoppers with a Sholley.
Don't hesitate - buy it !
Many thanks to all at Sholley for their help.
Trolley
Dont know how I managed before without the Sholley Trolley, got my second trolley today had my old one since 2014 still in working order. Would highly recommend your trolleys.
Poor overpriced design
Poor overpriced design. The steel axle for the front wheels turns in the aluminium legs causing severe wear to the axle and the leg tubes. Eventually the tube burst and the wheels fell off.
Also the adjustable handle is locked with a plastic device and constantly comes loose.
This review comes after some years of real-world use. They may have addressed the flaw on the latest models.
I have used a Sholley Trolley for years …
I have used a Sholley Trolley for years now, and I can honestly say I would be lost without it. One thing really is not good though---- the rubber cover on the handle is not fit for purpose, and I am having to buy a new handle every few months. I wish I could find somewhere which would cover the handle in something more suitable---- something which does not split because I have to lean on it
Overpriced unsatisfactory product.
I have persevered with this shopping trolley for over a year and find in the most over priced, unsatisfactory trolley I have ever purchased. It is almost impossible to get the trolley upstairs, when walking it trips you up if you kick the badly positioned brakes. The adjustable handrail becomes loose every time it is used. It is difficult to fold and often jams. If there is the slightest bump in the foot way the wheels take the trolley in all directions.
It would be far better to buy an inexpensive trolley, which I have found more reliable and less trouble.
A waste of money, best given to the dustman.
