New garden trolley
Hughes
Garden Gopher
Hugh Hughes approached IDC with the
desire to create a trolley to assist garden-
ers by providing useful spaces to carry
tools, plants etc, as well as having the
ability to carry heavy loads and waste
sacks.
IDC created a range of concepts for a
convenient, attractive and low cost cart. The chosen concept incorporated a
number of novel features such as:
- Handy trays for fitting to sides and rear.
- Fold out table.
- Water carrier / spray option.
- Tool holders
- Bag holders for paper or polythene
sacks.
The design was detailed as simple, robust plastic mouldings giving a very cost effective, high quality product with good load carrying capacity.
I found this wonderfully easy to put
together and use. It is very light, strong
and well balanced. The bag clipper was
great for holding bags when pruning. It
has a good capacity. Very useful for
carrying plants, pots and compost.
Rating 5 stars.
