They are great for large areas or putting a camber in a road,but for areas less than 100m+ they are to big,they can be pulled using a advent or similar loading shovel MSH :)

I've used one, they make life easier because you can drag them from a standing position but they're only any good on a road and not much quicker than rails and an ally bar as long as you've levelled the sand out with the rake well enough so there isn't too much excess whilst screeding.

On a big car park where you haven't got a kerb either side and there are alot of changes in levels your better off using rails and a bar.

A mate of mine uses the the smaller probst screeder that you drag with chains and he swears by it. It's a lot cheaper too.
