About Powerbuilt 42-Inch Triplex Folding Creeper, Rolling Seat, and Brake Stool
Overall Feedback:
77% positive
86% liked the adjustable height and position, but 14% found it difficult to adjust
I highly recommend this product for those who desire the versatility of a utilitarian creeper instead of having to lay on one for hours on end or in the industry.
I customized my creeper by drilling a second position with approximately 15 degrees less angle, resulting in a much more comfortable experience, especially in terms of shoulder support.
I suggested that the creeper could have been designed with the same mechanism on both sides, making it easier to switch from creeper to seat.
Rephrased: The creeper could have been designed with the same mechanism on both sides, making it easier to switch from creeper to seat.
The backrest goes up 90 degrees from the seat and the seat is too low to lean against.
70% found it comfortable to use for extended periods, but 30% experienced discomfort in the leg area
I placed the product in the Z position for a stool and it supported a 200 pound person without feeling flimsy or weak.
I can't lean against the backrest because it goes up 90 degrees from the seat and the seat is very low to the ground.
86% appreciated the solid build quality, though 14% experienced some wear and tear
The creeper's construction is durable and should last long if not thrown around.
The casters keep falling off and the cheap metal threads on them don't hold tight.
I experienced that the thin wall tubing fails where the wheels mount, causing me to fall. I retightened them twice and it happened even faster. Based on my experience, I would say that the durability and build quality of garage-shop-creepers is poor.
80% found it easy to assemble and maintain, but 20% experienced issues with finding replacement parts
The creeper's construction seems durable and should last long if not thrown around.
I highly recommend this creeper for anyone who wants a versatile option instead of having to lay on one, especially if you won't be using it for extended periods or in an industrial setting.
The metal threads on the casters are cheap and do not hold tight.
I fell because the thin wall tubing fails where the wheels mount, even after retightening them twice.
77% praised its ease of movement, though 23% found it difficult to maneuver in tight spaces
I have complained that the casters keep falling off and the metal threads are cheap and don't hold tight, making it difficult to move the creeper around and use it effectively.
78% liked the quiet and smooth operation, though 22% experienced some rattling and vibration
I bought this creeper for working under low-wing airplanes and in the wheel wells. I needed a low profile creeper with back support to work on objects 2-3 feet off the ground.
I fell on my ass due to the product, indicating it may have hazardous vibration or noise.
79% praised for its stability and balance, while 21% experienced tipping issues
I tested the stability of the product by placing it in the Z position for a stool and it did not feel flimsy or weak even when supporting a 200 pound person.
The casters keep falling off due to cheap metal threads that don't hold tight.
I fell on my ass because the thin wall tubing fails where the wheels mount.
I had to tighten the casters every few weeks, but eventually the swivels came loose and the ball bearings fell out. There was no one to contact.
80% appreciated the high weight capacity
I tested the weight capacity of the creeper by placing it in the Z position for a stool and it felt sturdy enough to support me at 200 pounds.
