Hello, I'm looking at a movers for my van and i like the fact that the rhyno claims to be all british (the price is a draw too). Has anyone got one or have any opinions on this mover?

The only experience we had was that they never turned up when they were supposed to!!

We made three different appointments, including one which andy took time off work and he never turned up and never told us he couldn't make it, with ever changing excuses why he didn't come when we rang him.........so not very impressed.

In the end we got a powrtouch which is fab!!

Found this on Rhyno movers.

I used to have one on a previous caravan. It was excellent.

The fitter came when he said he would even though done at very short notice.

The after sales service was good too, when I lost the handset.

It is the lightest one on the market and has the best ground clearance, according to a review in Practical Caravan last year.

We have a rhyno and it is great

my rhyno is excellent. fitted it myself and i am no diyer.

Cant beat buying british. the internal gearing is steel not the nylon used in some others. will stand the test of time i think.

Rhyno movers are excellent. Totally British, one of the lightest and smallest units, and have a good ground clearance. Ours was fitted by Rhyno. They came when they said they would and did a good job.

I wouldn't want to be without it now.

thanks for the imput, after talking to powrwheel we got a really good deal only 800 ish for the stronger moter fitted and everything

cheers

When powrwheel talk about a stronger motor they mean a motor with the same power as other manufacturers motors.  They have a low powered mover which has less power than other movers.  Like rhyno they also have a five year warranty.

I had one fitted in July and its been nothing but bother, the fitter has been out to it and said it was the battery, then something else then something else, I was assured a fitter would be out to me 2 weeks ago again to rewire it or something, I waited in all day, never turned up, phoned, no answer.

Rang the next working day and the bloke said "we turned up" which was a lie as I had been in all day and the time he said I was cleaning our our front porch so would have seen him!

I have rang 3 times since and promised a call back with a new date and have waited and waited and no phone call back

Steer clear, We actually end up having to heave the caravan whilst trying to press the buttons on the mover, and it constantly stalls!

When I have actually managed to talk to someone he tried to blame me for it working incorrectly, Their customer care is apalling, I am going to give them one last shot at fixing ours or they are going to have to take the damn thing off and refund me.

Hi Big Drake,

Yeah they told me it suitable for up and over 1500kgs, it also has the 20% more power over the standard rhyno one (or so I was told when I bought the damn thing!)

Still no phone call back from them this week,

The van is 1500kg fully laden (rarely up to that capacity) so I was told it'd be no problem, yeah right
