Lifting Bags - anyone used these?

[dansk]

Look decent, but just wondered if anyone else had used em?

 

[SolarCity]

How much are they? They look handy.

Hey,

I have used them but only on the coruse I was on.... I think we used ones called paff bags or puff bags something like that. they where ok I Guess but they where pretty expensive at like £2k I think and you needed the right setup on the top of the scoffold..... but if the price is good then i guess it would be worth it allthough you could probally make your own as this is some chinese company I assume the quality will not be that good. I will stick to walking them up ladders for the moment though !

£35+VAT each. Been meaning to get one for the last 2 weeks but haven't got round to it yet. Will report back when I do if you like.

 

[SolarCity]

£35+VAT? Superb price. The price of the Paf bags put me off but this seems far more realistic.

 

[JulianC]

And they're only in West Brom if you fancy a drive over!

 

[WRDEnergy]

wow £35 is cheap ! better than wasting your time making your own as well ! might have to get myself some

 

[solarsavings]

Weren't they hundreds of £££'s only a few weeks back.



They're not the bag I was thinking of and appear to be similar to one with the UK patent.

Was wanting to buy two - £45 + VAT per bag for two.

[SRE]

[Vrai]

Was looking to purchase 1 or 2 of these.

Did anyone bulk buy them and wanting to sell a few of them, or which is the reccomended company to purchase them from?

Thanks

We got them from here - we're on our 6th / 7th install with them. They are getting a little worn inside with the sharp edges but are still working really well and the external stitching etc isn't showing any sign of wear at all. We're working on the basis that if they do 10 installs it's less than £10 a job abd looks loads more professional. If they do 20/30/40 jobs then thats a bonus. Unfortunately, with no jobs after this week it could be some time before they are used again :-(
