I got 2 Harbor Freight creepers at $10 a piece and I definitely got what I paid for--both creepers had 2-3 wheels fall off within a week. I'm a big boy at 250lbs, and the wheels get stuck on the concrete fracture relief lines on the floor in my garage. Any recommendations? Not overly concerned with price, I just want it to be heavy duty.
Thanks

I'm not seeing any $10 creepers on the HF website, so it's hard to say what would be an upgrade from whatever it is you have now. I've heard good things about the Bone, but FWIW the creeper I am using now is nearly identical to HF's 63372/63424 plastic low-pro creeper. No headrest adjustment, but the bigger wheels make it a lot easier to roll over cracks.

I have the regular Bone creeper and really like it, I would definitely like to try the "off road" version. Have not seen anything else that even looks worth considering?

I bought a SnapOn six wheel creeper about 20 years ago. I am about 360# and 6'4".
I have used this creeper to transport Camelback drill presses, hit and miss engines, large tool cabinets.
I have no complaints.

My recommendation would be ditch the creeper, use a big ol' sheet of cardboard. More working space, more torque applied to the fastener instead of rolling around. I've never had a creeper I liked.
