Well, mixed thoughts so far. Read on dear viewer...

All turned up in a nice flatpack box, reasonably thick cardboard and protecting the contents.


Opening the box all looks good...


A nice solid bag keeping the wheels and bolts from flying around and they're good quality


Assembly is straightforward. Stand up the side stands, the cupboard holds them nicely. Or a spare pair of hands will be needed.


Cross Members (Missing the problem that brings the whole thing to a halt later :(


Add the restraining strap and padded cross bar...


Put the stand on its wheels and add the lower cross members...


The discover that one of the diagonal cross members wasn't made properly and the angle of a fold is incorrect :headbang:

It should be like this...


But is actually like this...


I could try and clamp it down with a nut, but actually having paid close to £200 for an adult mechano kit I want it as perfect as possible. I called the supplier and got voicemail. So I've sent them a mail asking them to send me a replacement cross member and we'll see what they say. I wonder if telling them I'm putting a review on the forum will make any difference...

Overall it's good quality and this is just a cock up in manufacturing. Hopefully they'll sort it out quickly. Pics of the bag and it's storage bag when all is resolved.
 
I take it you tried swapping them around in case they are side sensitive?
 
i was going to say is it the right way up but from the pics it looks like it is flat at the other end... Still good write up and loads of pics :thumbsup: :thumbsup:
