 >:(been buying off a local guy in selby for three years spent a fair bit off cash with him and this last backpack is the last one im ever buying from him, i have always been fair to him n he has just accused me off abusing the backpack cause two switches have stopped working in the space off three months , the real problem is they are cheap chinese crap and its about time we woke up n stop buying this  crap off these guys , from now on im sticking to english products  >:(ive had trollies off him n pumps broke after a couple off days , i had a trolly that kept dropping to pieces n had em where switches keep breaking , also bought an ro off him n thats a pile off crap, n all he ever says is i havent had any other complaints . Typical seller load off crap. To the guy in selby shove your switches where the sun dont shine

if your talking about john hewitt ive had nothing but good service from him
and backpacks ive bought have always been fine,yep the switches fall apart,but they
do on every backpack i have ever bought including shurflo.

wheni have bought the packs i imediately replace switches for somewthing sturdier

buy cheap buy twice.backpacks are notorious for broken switches/pumps etc.their ok for the odd job but if you want to use wfp day in/day out then you need something better.

ive had a pure freedom trolley for nearly 2 years and it never misses a beat.

my purefreedom trolley was good but greatly overpriced,my packs have given me equally
good service more convenient to handle and at less than £100 far cheaper!

i use the ws packs one speed i simply open bottom of pack,detach the switch from pump
then run some two core 6amp wire from pump up to top of packl attach a through switch
(wilkinsons sell for less than £2) then other side of through switch i attach more two core
down to battery crimp on two spade push on connectors and jobs a good un!

Thats my point you buy english n you get at least 6 months before anything breaks get chinese crap n sometimes you dont even get a day sometimes and the sellers dont want to know

i didnt realise there was any english packs out there fars as i knew they were all
from china mate just with different stickers.

its  not so difficult to make a trolley yourself pump shurflo if you prefer decent leisure
battery controller and a sack truck couple of pipes and you have a trolley thats
as good as any of these so called bespoke ones and it would be put together
with a pair of english hands so you have a guarantee of quality and reliability

I meant English trolleys like pure freedom

I meant English trolleys like pure freedom

like i said above you can make yourself,even though the freedom is a good bit
of kit it is still way over priced for what is essentially a pump battery hose and
a fabricated sack truck
