Review on Pentagon 83-DT5493 Heavy Duty Tool, 55-Gallon Drum Dolly, Single, Silver by Robert Elder

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Will not work with 55 gallon plastic kegs without modification.

Although the construction is very solid and good and the price is lower compared to other similar items I've found, I can't give this Kore more than 3 stars for one reason give. . That means on each wheel 2 bolts holding the wheels protrude into the area where the barrel sits. I'm assuming 55 gallon steel kegs have a stick or rim strong enough and high enough to keep the bottom from touching those studs, but 55 gallon plastic kegs lay flat on the bottom and those studs can break the barrel. a quick sanding wheel to lower them down a bit and then cut 3/4" thick plywood to fit the wheel and 4 bolt holes. Now I have a flat car. Apparently this info should be included in the description so people can see this Didn't have problem. Luckily I have the tools and parts for this 15 minute fix but many may not. Regardless I now have a mobile water storage truck for about $37.

Pros
  • Great product
Cons
  • Generally good but...
