Probably a better bet.
I have a blue folding hand truck from Machine Mart, it's very well
built and has large pneumatic tyres for crossing rough ground.
WE also have a small platform truck which looks similar to those sold
at Aldi/Lidl but there's a huge difference in construction. The one
we got cost £15 but can move a quarter tonne and has sturdy wheels
and deck. I wouldn't try to move 100kg on the Aldi version. Same
size, smaller wheels, thin wall tube and very thin load plate.
Yup, the...Netto I think...one was/is truly a pile of ****e. If it hadn't
been so cheap, and if I could have been arsed, and also hadn't needed to use
it that morning, it would have gone back. Used as a flat trolley the
metalwork holding the small wheels on buckled with about 50-60kg on it.
Still, it served its purpose. Depends what they're needed for I suppose.
