Oooohhhh you are gonna LOVE it, trust me! Gives ME such power being able to shift a whole hunk of tin tent single handed, (well double thumbed). Hubby can never get his mitts on it but the one time he did, he had to admit that I was a better navigator than he was anyhoo.

And I've only seen my hubby form some sweat on his brow when I was moving it once.....and that was in a VERY tight spot to move it enough to be able to hitch up after our two weeks and some dipstick had parked their vehicle soooooo close to our pitch over night that between that and the tree that was at the perimeter of our pitch anyways, it was a bit of a mission. But as we were setting off for home very early that morning it was either me try and manouvre Ellie or find out who the thoughtlessly parked vehicle belonged to so that they could move it and I was being 'kind' to other campers as we didn't know which unit the car belonged to so would have had to start rousing the whole field

But wouldn't you know it......had managed to manouvre it with only a cigarette paper of space between Ellie and this blooming vehicle, hitched her up, both been to the shower block for a last minute tiddle and as we were doing a lights check before setting off.......a chap appeared from nowhere asking us if we wanted him to MOVE HIS CAR!!!Probably only been disturbed by us quietly packing up and realized where the noise was coming from and that it may have been close to his car. Thank heaven's I AM a morning person or he may have had a tongue lashing from me. Hubby is NOT a morning person but I just hobbled into the passenger seat as fast as I was able and told him to GO!

Really was THE best bit of kit ever invented for tin tent shifting.

May you have many, many hours, days, weeks, months and years of fun with your new gismo.

Enjoy.

Ours was from Powertouch too and we managed to get a refurb one that still came with a two year guarantee as oppose to the bog standard five year one with new ones.  We really couldn't afford what the new ones were at the time but some kind person mentioned getting a refurb one on here and that's how we managed to afford one. The chap was lovely who fitted it where our tin tent's in storage and showed me how to work it all. Hubby wasn't there at the time, hence the reason I tend to hog the remote at allllll times eversince

You'll wonder how you ever managed without one now I promise you. No more burst blood vessels in me hubby's eyes is a defo bonus so far as I'm concerned and Ellie's a real brute of a lass to try and shift as oppose to what our old Esprit used to be that he could move all on his todd.

Enjoy your new toy.....you're gonna LUV it.
