They're a handy bit of kit but have their limitations. What are you wanting to use it for?

Yeah my mate is on about a cheap copy and or a cheap band driven machine.... but reckon in a couple of years they'll be shot.

 

Do you find the muck truck marks grass easily? is it easy to turn with a full load?? 

Wont mark grass much. To turn with full load, it's easiest to stop, lift slightly (it's perfectly balanced so not hard to do), tunr it on the two front wheels then press the lever to go again.

Hi doobin

I would use it for moving

 

logs

lengths of wood on the deck type fitting

pulling my branch logger and log splitter about

pulling log arch 

on hard tracks and cross country

 

Also to move stone for patch up our access track

possibly horse poo removal

and general,garden tasks

 

wondering how good it is off road ?

 

thanks

They're brilliant offroad. Thick mud would slow them up, but then you should be using a track machine anyhow.

 

The main thing to be aware of if you plan to use it for pulling stuff about is that the only place you can really fit a hitch is the front. Which means you will be in reverse. Which is painfully slow, too slow to be efficient.
