Review on Vestil AFT 30 NM Aluminum Non Marking Polyurethane by Daniel Ogbebor

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Disappointing fit and finish; Poor packaging

I had high hopes for an expensive flatbed truck, but what I received was disappointing. This product is made of high quality materials, but little attention has been paid to quality control. The deck base had sharp corners protruding from the platform deck, posing a serious risk of personal injury and damage to cargo. I was able to knock the corners off fairly easily with a hammer and punch. Around the pair of threaded holes for attaching the rollers were machine marks where a drill or tap had been run across the surface. attaching the wheels to the truck; One of the threaded holes is unscrewed with minimal key force. Essentially, the heavy rolls were thrown onto the platform with a loose piece of flimsy styrofoam. The rollers moved and bounced during transport, dents and scratches on the surface of the platform. The damage was cosmetic enough that I could refrain from complaining and requesting a replacement as I will likely remember the scar from using the platform soon. The truck was double boxed but the manufacturer's inner box showed heavy wear and tear leading me to believe most of the damage was done before it was boxed and shipped to me.

Pros
  • Unique design allows for safe transport of stacks of paper, small parts and other lightweight equipment
Cons
  • Price that breaks the piggy bank
