ATD Tools 81045 Heavy Duty Convertible Creeper

I'm a big dude, and had been looking for both a creeper and a rolling shop chair that could handle my weight. When I found this unit, I was amazed by the price which is not much more than the combined cost of a significantly less well constructed chair and creeper, yet handles my weight with no problem whatsoever. It's durable, strong, cleans easily, and I trust it will give me years of service. Well done, ATD, well done!

I looked at quite a few creepers before I decided on this one. I was mostly in the market for a low sturdy garage stool for when I'm working on brakes, suspension, and other mid-height tasks. Crawling around on my knees was getting old and constantly getting up and down didn't cut it. The convertible construction covered two birds with one stone. I also researched the casters on them and most were pretty shoddy. These are much higher quality than any others anywhere near this price point. They're NOT the hard black plastic ones that get gravel stuck in them and then gouge up when they bind. They also have good bearings on the spinners and the wheels with very little free-play. The covering also seems thick and durable.

When I found this, the first thing that stood out was the inherent stability of the base when it was in the stool mode. My driveway isn't as smooth as a gym floor and I didn't want to get dumped because I rolled over a pebble or a crack. The extra padding for the head was another selling point. While I don't ever plan to nap on it, the additional cushion naturally puts your head at a good working angle. You can work without the project directly over your eyes without straining your neck.

Like others have mentioned, it is a bit taller than other creepers, but I couldn't comfortably get under and work on most non-trucks if I were on a wafer. Ramps and/or jacks are pretty much essential unless you're way skinny, very limber, or you have a vehicle with good ground clearance.

Potential problem: It isn't always where I left it because my kids like riding it down my slanted driveway. No spills so far. They keep telling me I should try it out. Very tempting but I feel a bit too old.

Well made,heavy duty. I've had it for a few months now, it's comfortable to lay & sit on . Creeper to work on my truck and the perfect size stool to work on my bike. I've gotten oil on it and it wiped right off, grease left a very lite stain, but it still cleans up better then most, wish the head rest was adjustable, but not a big deal.the stool is great for working on my motorcycle, I rest a tool tray on the foot rest & I'm set. Good stuff

Wonderful product. Fast shipping. Expensive but usefull. It's seem very well build. I'm use to oil change. roll in and out smooth.

this creeper/stool is definitely heavy duty. solid, strong and stable! i like this unit very much and would purchase again...
