Great product. Works as advertised. I use it all the time and find it to be the best creeper available. I highly recommend this product.
This creeper is a lovely addition to the aircraft maintenance tools set. It will make working on the bottom of the wing etc. much nicer. As for the size of this creeper, Im 5-11 and the seat fits me fine. Like the other poster said it was too small for him at 6-2 so I may be near the edge of the back rest. (Something to consider) Now for my biggest gripe, I purchased the one with the articulating seat and with 4 casters. This thing weighs in around 50Lbs. I have to lift it into my Pick-up truck typically over the side. It is over 5.5 feet high and is a struggle to lift it out of the truck. I do believe the company is working on making this unit weigh less, so hopefully in the future it can come in at around 30Lbs. Also, as another reviewer mentioned, it would be beneficial to have the creeper lock down in place so as to not roll around when you are working. Something perhaps foot operated so that you could lock it and release it from the seat. (Just a thought). The height adjustment is very rough, and I find it needs to be finer at the lower settings. For those interested, I recorded the height of the seat and the backrest at each adjustment position. I recorded it here as Seat Height / Top of Backrest height (With the 4 casters) Starting with the bottom setting with it lying flat. 7 / 7 10 / 16 13.5 / 26 16 / 33 18 / 38 19 / 41 20 / 45 21 / 47 21.5 / 49.3 22 / 50.5 This is a very upright seating position. (Not sure that I need a Creeper to go this high.)

The creeper will support 350 lb with either the standard or the heavy duty casters. (The standard casters are rated at 120 lb each and the heavy duty casters are rated at 250 lb each so if the load is distributed over 3 or 4 casters, they should easily support 350 lb.)
