Which mover??

[Garfield]

On our new van (1480kg Bailey Pegasus), we have been offered 2 choices of brand new mover for the same price.

Either a Truma Mover S or a Powrtouch 3.

Does anyone have a preference as to which one they would choose?

We currently have a 3 year old Powrtouch that has been OK, and Powrtouch's after sales have been pretty good, but should I stick with the known product, or try the Truma?

What model truma ? & do they do the five year guarantee same as powrtouch....

I have a powrtouch 3 on mine MTPLM 1600kg & it copes with ease....

I saw a big twin axle sterling brand new at the dealers on Saturday, it had a Reich 4 wheel drive one fitted, could not believe how low to the floor they are when fitted, clip a high kerb & bang goes a drive unit.

The truma model is the S.

Hello

If I only had the choice between them to it would be the truma s, everyday, not that it matters because truma own powrtouch!!

But I do have a e-go just been fitted at the moment which i'm happy with. Regarding the 5 year guarantee just watch the name change every couple of years, thats why powrtouch doen't have a R init!!! Then guarantee is void!!!!

Hope this helps. Stephen

Why don't you just get your dealer to move your current mover onto your new van - ours is doing this for no charge using a powrtouch fitter - you might be able to get this as part of the deal or even if you have to pay it might be worth it

Truma don't own PowrTouch Stephen.

A director of Truma is also a director of Powrwheel, the manufacturers of PowrTouch, but that's as far as it goes.

I can only go on what happen to me.

I found them very hard to deal with!! not helpfull, not friendly. But that might just be me!

I'm guessing Kevin you might work for powrtouch due to your response or i've just got on the wrong side of you, which I didn't want to do. So if I have i'm sorry.

Steven, I dont work for or have anything to do with powrtouch. im just a satisfied customer, and I was a bit suprised, that you had such a bad time with them as everybody Ive seen post have had excelant service.

I agree that Powrtouch have excellent aftersales backup (I have had to call them out this morning, lets hope it can get sorted before Ester when we need the van...), we found out what a nightmare moving the van without a mover is!!!

I too was surprised by your comments. The Actuating handle socket broke . Within 24 hours Powrtouch had sent me a replacement. Loads of apologies on the phone.

What more can I ask for. 10 out of 10 for me.

Also like Trucker, I don't work for them.

Cheers

I can only speak highly of power touch they fixed my mover no quibble after four years within a week and would have done sooner

 

[Zafiral]

They are coming out to fix my three year old mover next week that has just gone faulty. Can't fault the service, but this is not the first issue we have had with it. I am still in a quandry.
