    Hello Simon,

    I've got two.

    They’re absolutely bomb proof. Very well constructed and thought out compared to some other brands.
    Just beware that they are sold as a bare trolley – no electrics.
    You will need to order the charging kit to go with it and perhaps the soft start as well.
    If ordered all at the same time they will come fitted.

    With the soft start they only have one power lead, not sure without, may be two.

    They are made from approx 1.5 mm steel and look almost imposible to force open. Downside is they are very heavy. Good large strong castors.

    My only gripe is that it is easy for pupils to close the door and trap dangling charger cables – which will damage the cable – PAT fail.

    We have the 16 bay normal sized ones here, as has been said they are bomb proof brilliantly constructed. The ones we have don't have the handles on them but I asked them at BETT and they posted me some.

    We have about 9 of them - great product! Much prefer them to the lapsafe cabinets we have.

    Thanks very much for the replies - I'm going to try one out with softstart option as long as its less than a lapcabby
