ooh that lot looks great, we have been seriously considering a roof box, one at that price might have just made the decision for us

---

It was the price that made us get one. When we saw the price of similar sized roof boxes in Halfrods I nearly fainted!

---

Same here Beezers, what we saved on the roofbox helped pay for our over priced dealers roofbars!

Hi Beezers,

Can you tell me what fixings are used to fix box to rails with?

Thanks,

John and maz

Hubby went to Aldi's this morning with his 'list' .

He bought -

230v pump - this is the second one we have had from them.  It works brill hope it lasts longer than last time.

2 small tables - these seem ok for the price. Not as good as our more expensive larger roll up table but easier to move round and more flexible.

Kitchen stand - useless.  Soldering was rubbish and one of the clips fell off whilst we were erecting it .. There were sharp edges that can cut fingers and missing parts.  It will be going back.   We will continue to look for another stand like that but better quality, if that exists.

Picnic rug .. wasn't on his list cost £5.  Looks OK.   

oh dear, I bought the kitchen stand today- better get it set up just in case this one drops apart and needs returning. If I do go back tomorrow, I will get some of those poly cotton sleeping bag liners that I was going to buy but then changed my mind. I also got the cool box, and an impulse buy on the picnic rug, cos it's got a shiny backing! Bargains!

I bought the Aldi roof box today and opened up the box just to see if everything was ok. The inside has a sticker with "Mont Blanc XS 3200". The box also has proper hinges which I'm told is a good thing plus a 3 year warranty.

Also, I notice that the self-inflating mats are £10 each - has anyone tried them? I wondered how thick they were. I'm still in two minds whether to put the kids on the basic foam mats or get self-inflating mats - they didn't get on too well with airbeds, kept falling off!

Thanks,

Nicola

Bought a couple yesterday and I have one currently inflating as I "speak". It says it will inflate to 5cm (although the information leaflet says you should leave it for several hours on first use for the foam core to expand completely). Will see what it is like when it reaches 5cm and then decide whether or not to return it as I am not so sure how comfortable they should be. A quick test lying on it so far and I can feel the hard floor underneath (a wee bit). Otherwise they might suit the kids, while I invest in a couple of fat aircs for the grown-ups
Dimensions(cms): 188x66x5 Weight: 1.8Kg

Comes with a repair kit and the mat itself is designed with a zip and handle so that you roll it up into its own bag.
