We bought two in April 2011 and I encountered a hinge failure within a few weeks, American Golf were very good and handed over a replacement trolley readily. My Wife gave up and returned to her old Hill Billy Lite within a year while I continued to use the powerbug. The hinge assembly failed on that unit, but OK I could use my Wifes', that is until the hinge failed on that one too. All these failures are on the lower part of the hinge, are identical in nature and indicate a manufacturing process weakness. The failure point is located at the weld line furthest from the injection point, and under the microscope there are clear indications that the weld is not forming as stongly as necessary. This could indicate poor injection tool temperature control. As a final point I have been watching the Powerbug web site for replacement hinge assemblies since July 2013 and have seen them to be out of stock at every visit - seems there could be a high replacement rate going on here.

I am very impressed with my PowerBug that I purchased 18 months ago from American Golf. I have had other trolleys in the past but none compare to the quality and simplicity of use of this trolley.

Bought the power bug sport 6 month ago and the bug is quality , quite motor , looks good, my fiends have had problems with their power trolleys in the past and are big names, so would recommend the trolley above so called bigger names .

I agree with David P. Due to a very busy work schedule, I had 1 day in the week I ordered my Power Bug where i would be in for delivery which was the next day. I called the customer service line and they were more than happy to assure it was sent that day on a next day delivery service. I have had other electric trolleys in the past and while talking to the lady at Power Bug I certainly noticed the difference in the level of service. It felt very Taylor made to my needs! My Power Bug arrived the next morning and if there's one thing I can't stand about new 'toys' it's working out how to assemble the things. But the Power Bug was so simple to fold up and down that I only needed to glance at the instructions to make sure I was charging the battery as advised! The performance is as expected, fantastic. These guys clearly know what they're talking about when it comes to this product. Being in the leisure industry in the past, I'd say with their service, price point and customer service, they've got it spot on!

Did a lot of research, this trolley is very similar to the Motocaddy, but is much better value.Ordered on Friday and was due for FREE delivery on Wednesday was unable to be there so phoned the office to reschedule to the Friday.The staff were very helpful and obliging and changed the delivery date. As promised it arrived on Friday. To add to my delight, Ihad ordered a store return model but what arrived was to all intents and purposes NEW! - Result. Easy to assemble, doddle to use, it does exactly what it says on the tin. With this level of product satisfaction and customer service, why would you buy anything else? David - North London.

The Power Bug Digital has lots of good points, such as, Lightweight but strong construction, Compact when folded down and easy to load into the boot of the car. Their Customer Service is very good and their Web site is well constructed with detailed information on spares and accessories. There are 2 'major' faults to be considered when buying. The On/Off switch is situated on top of the handle (common to other manufactuers trollies)and is Very sensitive and can easily be set off accidentally, risking injury to anyone in it's path. The second fault is the front wheel clogs up with mud in the winter (My course is very muddy) and even the addition of Hedgehog wheels doesn't cure the problem. If your course is reasonably dry in the winter then that is not a problem

Excellent service! I ordered Sunday Teatime and it arrived Tuesday am. Looks good just a simple design with a duel stop and speed control. This was supposed to be a store returned one but it still had all the origional packaging and not a mark on it, I'm delighted! the whole experience of buying on line from Powerbug was completely hassle free.

I ordered a power bug sport on a Wednesday (mid-day) and received the power bug sport on the following Friday (11.30 CET) here in FRance. This was a service above and beyond my wildest expectations, congrats to the the team at Hare Hatch Ray Osgood in the Charente

I have recently purchased a PowerBug Pro-Sport Lithium trolley and I have to say, I have never used a more functional, hassle-free electric trolley in my many years of playing golf. Having had it for 4 months now, I have not had one problem thus far, and have enjoyed the silent, powerful motor it runs on. I usually play 18-holes down at my local golf club, but on the assurance of the PowerBug team, I tried playing 36-holes last week and it managed it with ease, and thats saying something seeing as I play at Hennerton Golf Club in Wargrave, a particularly hilly course! I have used previous PowerBug models, and although they were all very good, the lithium model really outdoes the others and it is so handy having a small, light-weight battery, rather than the rather large lead acid ones. In the past when my previous trolleys have broken-down, the PowerBug team have been so helpful and is the main reason I have stayed with them as their customer service is so good. I would really recommend using these guys if, like me, you are starting to find it hard lugging your cart bag around the golf course! I hope you guys find this helpful!

Had this trolley for a few years. Always thought it was good value for money. Had a small problem with a lost bolt, and the service received to fix it was great - let me have the missing part for free, taken from a part exchange trolley they had in. Never got this good after sales service from PowaKaddy, which is why I changed to this trolley when my PowaKaddy broke.

After buying my PowerBug Pro-Sport Digital Lithium at The Scottish Golf Show this year I feel I can now give a true review on this superb product.

This is my field test on my PowerBug Pro-Sport Digital Lithium LSR purchased on
27-04-2011.

Very lightweight and compact for both storage and for travelling.

Construction and design to a very high standard and very easy and quick to assemble, even for some who is Visually Impaired/Registered Blind like myself. It is also a stylish looking trolley.

Motor is powerful and unbelievably quiet and smooth. You could say the Rolls Royce of powered trolleys!

The Lithium battery is absolutely superb being not only powerful but unbelievably small and light. It is possibly the smallest battery on the market so far. I have played 36 holes on one charge with no power problems at all. Easy and quick to charge and can be partly charged with no effect on performance. Superb!

Wheels are great and can be adjusted so you can use your PowerBug as a normal trolley which is handy if you forget your battery.

Soft grip handle is very comfortable and the push button go/stop is so easy to use, with a good clear digital read out.

Bag securing straps are superb and hold the bag in snug as a bug! They are fully adjustable to suit any type of bag.

Packaging and delivery was first class and there is a superb after sales team with great support for any questions you may have. Most companies are not bothered once they have your money, the PowerBug team are there to help and are very professional.

I have over the years had two top of the range Powakaddy's and one Moto Caddy. My PowerBug Digital Lithium is by far the best I have used and I rate the unit with a 10 out of 10. I also believe it is without a doubt, the best product on the market for both price and quality.

As Del Boy would say, "Lovely Jubbly!"

Despite all the good reviews my own experience has been terrible. I bought the trolley in Spring 2007 and have had to replace the speed control in 2008, 2009 and 2010 and guess what, it has started to pack up again. The people at Power Bug are most unhelpful and insist that the fault is still the speed control despite me having replaced it three times. Would not have been so bad if some effort had been made on their part to solve the problem. Definitely not recommended.
