Got heavy gadgetry to move? Appliance Rollers got your back

Fridge-wheels.jpgGot something heavy that needs moving? Don't want to break your back? Appliance Rollers may be just he thing for you.

As you can see in the picture to the side, Appliance Rollers fit just right under a refrigerator to help you wheel one off. True, you don't normally need to move one but, when you do — trust me — your arms will wish you thought ahead a bit.

These rollers can carry 2,000 pounds and adjust from 18 inches to 28 inches in length. That'll probably cover everything from your 150 pound airplane replica to that Piano PC of yours.

Appliance Rollers sell in pairs for $20.

Slow news day? These have been around for over 20 years.

I'd guess well over 100 years - probably about as long as heavy appliances have existed!

Sportys no longer sells these appliance rollers. I have checked other sites for this item, and can not locate another supplier.
If you know a company that sells appliance rollers please advise.
