Dale Adams Enterprises The Bone Rough Rider 7031 Mechanic's Creeper

Without a doubt the best creeper I have ever used. I have hated working on anything I had to get under a car to get to. This creeper has changed that. No more hanging up on cords, hoses, tools..... No more pinched arm skin and or hair caught in the rollers.Rolls easily is comfortable and very sturdy. I am 6'4" and 250lbs and broke the last chinese creeper I had.Made in the USA and you have to love that!

The bone rough rider arrived within a few days of ordering it. It assembled within ten to fifteen minutes. I highly recommending reading the product installation and care before assembly. The reason for my purchase was to use for accessing my crawlspace. It's the only one I considered and I am glad I bought it. My crawlspace is covered in a really rough cement and is very narrow in many places. The creeper worked like a charm and I easily glided across a rough surface and underneath very narrow as well as low spaces. I'd recommend it to anyone traveling across a rough surface.

Just picked mine up today. I'm telling you this thing will work in any terrain. I was working in really thick gravel/sand on my first use and it worked awesome. Rolls over everything. It may look big and sit tall, but it doesn't. You can get under very low clearance and be fine. I never write reviews on products, but this American made product deserves it.

I have owned several rough rider creepers. Either they got ran over or stolen is why I wanted another one. Everywhere I looked during the last couple of years I could not find one. Finally I found them. I thought I was going to get what I had been wanting. However the very one I purchased came in two months late, I noticed that the wheels were solid plastic. The real rough rider wheels are rubber and has tread on them. I ordered another one because the pictures in the description show the wheel being rubber and with tread. It comes in with the plastic wheels. It cannot be a rough rider with plastic wheels because it cannot go over rocks , air hoses, small fragments on a shop floor, deep cracks in the floor, etc… Don’t waste your money if you are wanting a real rough rider. Just get the smaller bonester creeper that cost much less and rolls just as easy.

It is a great creeper...BUTI ordered it from Amazon on 12/7/11 and received it as they said on 12/12/11. No complaints there. I paid $134.99 for a creeper that showed up at my door incomplete. That's not Amazon's fault, that ball Dale Adams Enterprises dropped.When you buy one (I purchased the rough rider) you will notice when you open box it is quite simple. Basically 6 parts. The "back bone", and wrapped in separate cardboard 4 completely assembled casters, and one package of 16 each bolts and nuts. When I started to assemble creeper I got to the last caster, and noticed that they put metal sleeves in the wheel opening where the bolt goes through to bolt wheel to caster assembly. An option that clearly strengthens the whole unit which is good...EXCEPT I received one caster assembly that was missing this metal sleeve rendering my creeper useless. I called Dale Adams Enterprises and explained, in which they profusely apologized and told me they were sending a new caster assembly out immediately today. That is great, except I just spent $134 on a creeper that I cannot use. What bothers me is that there are so few moving parts, and how can something like this be simply overlooked? I bought this because it is very high quality as far as construction of unit, and also because of the fact it is proudly made in the U.S.A. When you get it, you get a little pamphlet that shows all the sub-contractors that are involved with the construction of the creeper along with a little brag about made in U.S.A.... which is also fine with me. But when they show the multi-million dollar facility and Dale Adams showing off his car restoration facilities, I hope they realize that they need to sell a good, complete product or they won't have jobs, or a multi-million dollar facility to brag about Made in U.S.A. for very long. Just frustrated I guess. Dale Adams might think $134.00 is fun money for an hour, but I can't afford to think that.**UPDATE**I received a new complete wheel/caster assembly from Dale Adams on Thursday 12/15/11 as promised, along with their apologies. Now that I got to take a spin on it...it is the BEST wheeling creeper I have ever owned. I fit good on it (6'5") and it is made of the best quality. Again, the only bummer was the caster assembly getting shipped incomplete. If it I were shorted nuts or bolts I would have muttered under my breath but then ran to hardware store and that would have fixed that. But to miss such an important piece of creeper in a box with literally 6 pcs. is kinda hard to understand.

The best creeper I am really glad they are available again hopefully they hold up like the original one I purchased 30 years ago

This creeper is such an improvement over my last one that there is no comparison. I only work on truck however so I cannot comment on the clearance issues other may experience. The wheels get stuck on tools like impact wrenches instead of tiny little pebbles. I bought this for use on my outdoor projects and it has proved extremely useful. The brochure that came with the creeper was a very pleasing read, all about manufacturing in the USA. Buy this!!!

I've been using this for a few weeks now. The product is uncomfortable and the 'wheel wells' do not allow for much free movement above the shoulders. They get in the way when working overhead. I frankly found the standard cheap creepers more comfortable and versatile. Quality of construction is pretty good. The casters are great. I just have problems with the usability of the Rough Rider. Not worth 5 times the cost of a standard one in my opinion.
