Customer Reviews

Not Bad
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.

It's like having someone else carry the board for you!
This tool is so cool! Its the first serious improvement to handling drywall and plywood in the last 25 years. With this tool you almost NEVER NEED TO CARRY drwall again. I wouldn't be without it.

Does What Its Supposed To
I've been using the Troll for several months now, and it does a very good job with 3/4" mdf and ply. 4x8 sheets just do not have good handles on them and my arms are not 4 feet long. With this tool you stand them on their side, lift up a bit, slide it under and take off. You would think that maybe the wheels are a little small to get over obstructions, but the handle makes it easy to lift the wheels up and over, in fact most of the time I am using the Troll to carry the sheets without using the wheels anyway. The bottom rail is long enough to give you good balance. The outer edge of the rail is kicked up to keep the sheets from working their way off it. All in all, it does what it is designed to do very well and makes it tolerable for one person to handle big sheets.
