At the time of testing, the product had not been listed on Amazon for long enough. Therefore, the existing reviews do not sufficiently reflect the advantages and disadvantages of the product, so this point is neglected in the evaluation.
Prices of up to €359.99 are charged on the Internet for equivalent products. Very affordable products are available from as little as €48.95 . The REDOLZ trolley is therefore currently in the lower price segment with a price of € 89.95. For the quality and performance received, the price-performance ratio is very good.
