BIG RED TR6452 Torin Rolling Garage/Shop Creeper: 40" Padded Mechanic Cart with Adjustable Headrest and 6 Casters, Red

After reading reviews, my main concern was the stability of the headrest when propped up. Turns out it's not an issue. Yes, it's a simple design, but sometimes simple is enough. I literally attempted to make the headrest fail while laying on this creeper, and it stayed in position. I mean I was bobbing and smacking my back hard against the headrest, looking like a fool, but the thing stayed in place. The only way I could get it to fail/fall down was to lift it up first, which makes me wonder, what in the heck are these people doing to their headrest while working on their cars to have that issue? Anyways, on to some other topics. The most important thing here is how in the heck did I get this creeper for so cheap? I was really expecting a mediocre creeper but ended up with an amazing one for $35. The casters (wheels) do great for my concrete driveway. The side rails make it easy to do those awkward movements under the car, by grabbing one hand on the rails and another on the car, and then pushing yourself around. For the normal movements, your feet pushing you do great on their own. The headrest is so nice to have. I've had countless times where my neck was killing me by the end of the job, because while under my truck, I usually have to lift my head. This changes that. And before you roll back out, just simply lift the headrest up a bit and it goes back down. It may not be a lazy-boy but it's sure as heck comfortable enough for an environment involving dirty grease and scorching hot metal. You know the only negative thing? I believe the distributor (not the shipper) destroyed the box it was in and caused subsequent damage to the frame of the creeper. It was the condition of the box upon arrival that caught my eye. It had huge gouges in it and missing chunks. I could see the product inside without even opening it. From the way it was damaged, it looks like it had one hell of a shelf life. But, in the end, I realized the few scratches and gouges the creeper already had would just be complimented by the grease and scrapes I had lined up for it in the future. Luckily the damage was limited to the frame, not the vinyl. Usually I don't include box/product damages, but like I said, I believe this was the distributor of the product.

Good quality and nice casters. Way better than most for the price

I weigh 280lbs and am 6'6" tall. No issues worked great the wheels were actually decent quality and they swivel soo noce as can easily change direction. Adjutable headreest is nice. My car is pretty low so even with oil change ramps the farther u get in the tighter it is as this raises u about 2" off the ground. Most vehicles wont have issues. Pretty good quality and wow it makes it easier. Just last week i did the oil on my commuter and did not order this yet. Wha a pain to try to get out from under the car and also if u need a tool or anything geeze this makes it soo much better. I would not but for work if u are a mechanic but for the occasional garage mechanic it is perfect. I have really tricky spark plugs on a v6 back 3 plugs are right up at the firewall.. i see they also make a like leaner that bends iver the engine and u can lean on it not cheap but for how much they want ti charge me to change my plugs it will be worth it. I have anheavy tune and twin turbos so i have to put new plugs in ever 15k... it is direct injection

I had mine for 9 and a half years. Today, I wasn't paying attention and ran over it. It was a pretty good creeper for the price. The headrest was a pain in the butt sometimes and its not necessarily built for people who aren't skinny. I was constantly pinching back/side skin and running over shirts & jackets. Not the best design but it worked for almost a decade

The rollers move smoothly, padding is comfortable, head support seems well thought out (haven't used the head support yet). The lower wheels are few inches away from the edge, so the cart tips every time when I sit on the cart to get in position. Might have to move the wheels to prevent tipping.

Great creeper for working under a vehicle. Not so good on a sloped driveway, but much more comfortable than laying on a piece of cardboard. Ability to raise the neck and head area is very nice.

Works great

I've sold scores of creepers over the years and for the price, you can't beat it. Ppl complain about the wheels. They are a hard plastic and large. Obviously gravel will chew them up. The head rest is fine for the price and if you're too lazy to come up with a stop so it doesn't slip, then maybe you shouldn't be working on a vehicle in the first place. Update: 10/13/14 It still works great, however, one must make sure you keep the casters and their allen bolt/heads tightened and don't over tighten them or you will damage them. I got a little lazy in my head and forgot to tighten the caster bolts/heads and slightly bent the bolts themselves because I got lazy, but not to the point where it was too late. So make sure you tighten those caster bolts but not over tighten them. The head rest for the PRICE isn't as bad as people say. Find your spot you are working on, adjust the head rest and you'll have no problems. However, if you're going to swing around and jump up and down on the Creeper, sure, the head rest is going to fall. But there's a simple solution to that. You can insert a piece of wood in the area where the metal rod is allowed to adjust in the 4-5 positions, so when you're under your vehicle and know how you want the head rest to incline, a small piece of wood inserted in that area will not allow the head rest to fall down on you. Simple, but it works.

I got tired of having to hold up my head while I was working underneath cars and trucks. I got this thing and what a difference. Happy with purchase.

Built tough and it is nice and low. No problem going under an F-150 without jacking up the truck. The rollers are top quality and easy to move while on it. The head rest is very convenient. Comes already assembled.

nicely made
