Powerd WheelBarrrows- are they any good?

[fixit]

Its only just after christmas and my wife wants me to buy her a powered wheelbarrow, I've found one on http://www.equineauctions.co.uk Can anyone tell me if they are any good? Many thanks in anticipation if you can.
Happy new year to you all.

I have no idea how good they are, but by the time I had finished laughing at it I began to think it actually sounded quite a good idea. However, if it has rechargeable batteries it will be significantly heavier than a normal barrow, and once loaded will probably just sink into the mud.

We have one not excately like that one.It is great for moving shavings/hay we can get 3 bales on ours stacked up but it doesn't tip so not to good for mucking out unless you don't mind re emptying it again by hand.But at that price you just can't say no!!

PMSL @ Slow Creep! I haven't used one but I think it actually is a good idea for those with sore backs etc.

Never heard of them before this TBH. They'd be great for me- I have awful wrists and cannot use normal wheel barrows.
