Winter? Wheelbarrow......

[Oberon]

My birthday is coming up and my parents said they would get me a new wheelbarrow.

I want a plastic one.....suggestions please.....

B&Q orange ones, we have two I can locate mum easily when poo picking

That's nice of them!

Why plastic?

Why plastic?

For a change and sick of every wheelbarrow rusting after a year.

I've just dropped off their birthday presents while they're still in the country and they are a bit mystified as what to get me....They seemed relieved to have settled on something simple like a wheelbarrow

I have one too. Doing a good job so far

Another vote for orange B&Q ones.....

And get a 'green tyre' from b&q while you're there. Its solid foam and won't ever deflate

well I reckon ours are at least 5/6 yo.. one of the barrows is lashed to the base with baler twine as we lost a couple of screws but still going

my local farm shop does plastic ones in all colours... very sturdy ones, I have a pink one... cost £20

The horsey ones are always ridiculously expensive.

I haven't got any of these, so can't really comment on pros and cons of them. I'm soon moving from Full livery to DIY, so I'll be buying quite a few tools and a barrow over the next few weeks...

Depends on your budget, I got this one for my Christmas present

It's light and really well balanced so easy on your back, and also has grooves in the top to help hold your fork etc in place!

I have one too. Doing a good job so far

How many litres does the B&Q one hold?
