Troll® Model 49 Drywall Panel Handler 300 LBS

Great tool I’m a lifetime drywaller and this is a heck of a back saver I can move 12ft 5/8 drywall around all day also if your a tall person when using it to carry sheets it keeps the sheet down low enough to get it thru the door ways

Great for moving 44lb sheets of “lightweight” drywall, which are now taped together in twos by the manufacturer- resulting in an 88lb, 4x8 load, which I end up handling by myself…

I got the Troll to move drywall and OSB, and so far, it's done the job.Description: The Troll is probably much smaller than you're imagining, about 3 feet high. It's basically a hook with two wheels and a 2 foot handle. You stick a panel on the middle of it and - presto - gravity pushes the handle against the side of your panel and you have a panel with wheels. The handle is too low to use while rolling, but you can reach over and lift the whole panel up by the handle to get over obstacles and up and down stairs.I might prefer a longer handle, so that you could hold the handle while rolling panels, and some wider wheels for off-road rolling, but the Troll does what it promises. Does it make moving drywall easy? No. Fun? No. Bearable? Yes, and I think that's all you could ask for.One more piece of advice - if you're looking at the Troll, you're probably comparing it with the JH lifting handles. I have both, and, in my opinion, the lifting handles are better if you have (1) two people, (2) are going to be moving a lot of panels, and (3) are going to be moving panels over uneven terrain or up and down stairs. Conversely, the Troll is better for infrequent one person jobs on smooth terrain.

No brainer if you are working alone. I used it to move 4x12 5/8 sheets of drywall with ease. I also used it to lift second sheets of drywall up to the first sheet when doing the walls. The first one came with damaged wheels caps, and was immediately replaced. The damage didn't affect it if I was carrying something heavy. But, when I used it with something lighter, it would get stuck. This is a must have for DIY'ers

I had bought this product after buying one years ago that was amazing and great quality. This product however, is not the same quality and has some flaws that makes it difficult to roll due to the poor craftsmanship. The axels are welded crooked which causes the wheels to not roll straight. Also, the wheels wouldn't turn until I loosened them a little.

Everything was well built well but the wheels are only held on by simple push on caps. So during usage the caps would come off and hence the wheels would then come off. Cotter pins or retaining washers would fix this problem.

works great for hauling heavy dock panels

Ive had it and used it enough times to give it my honest review on it now. It seemed like a good deal for what looks like a heavy duty dolly. With an affordable price i purchased this one over others. Unfortunately i made the wrong decision. It looked like it had potential but they skipped out on trials. The handle was too short to be of any use (probably to cut down cost) the wheels definitely doesnt hold even remotely close to 300 pounds. Imagine holding a flopping board and trying to balance that while moving. The wheels dont have any bearings and the tires are hard, so its hard to move material while its next to you so its better to push from behind while trying to ballance this 8 ft flopping board. Believe it or not it was better for me to just carry it vs using the dolly. To be fair, under the perfect conditions like your on a perfect floor in a warehouse, its beats using nothing. In reality with everyday conditions, no thanks.
