No, but U do get what U pay for!!
I tried a few of the cheapie ones on the net, they all failed within 6
months or less so I bit the bullet & bought a PowaKaddy.
That was 2 years ago &, touch wood, its still trundling along very happily &
it gets used at least twice a week!!

Hi Eric
Yes have some experience because I sell them in my shop, the trolley itself
is good, light, easy foldable, Powakaddy at least here in Holland good
service ( the importer is a very reliable company ). Only advise that I must
give to you is if you do buy one , take the normal battery and not the
Lithium, it has problems.

Thanks for the feedback guys.
I was in fact looking at the standard 36 hole battery model as I believe the
Lithium technology is still a bit in it's early stages of development for
this kind of use.
Cheers,

Hi Eric,
I've had 3 Powakaddy Freeway II trolleys because the first two packed
up within days of taking them out of the box.
Trolley one managed 18 holes and half way up the first on its next
outing - had to really give Direct Golf some stick as they claimed
they couldn't exchange it for a new one due to replacements only being
given in the first 14 days.
Trolley two achieved the first 18 with difficulties and then didn't
get out of the car park for round two!
So much for you get what you pay for - you can imagine the telephone
call I made.
Trolley three was waiting for me to pick up without argument and with
the battery fully charged. Touch wood this trolley has so far
performed impeccably!
I hope your experience is better than mine, however if a problem does
occur stand your ground, whilst being polite and time your visit to
perfection:
I'm sure that the 3rd trolley was only ready for me as I had told the
Direct Golf Manager I would arrive 10 minutes before his 9:00pm
closing time!
Best of luck.
Steve
