A total of £43.98 for both a wheel barrow with a pneumatic tyre wheel + a puncture proof wheel, which seems like a good buy considering that barrow supplied with the just puncture proof wheel fitted is £54.99 Chillington Camden Classic Puncture Free Wheelbarrow 85L | Wickes.co.uk so for £11.01 less you get an extra pneumatic tyre wheel that would cost £24.99 extra Chillington Pneumatic Wheelbarrow Wheel PW-350 | Wickes.co.uk a total saving of £36.00/45%.

P.S. Yes, it's only a black painted barrow and not a galvanised one, but although my Father's galvanised barrow lasted about 45 years, my last painted Wickes barrow lasted 25 years and that should be long enough for me.

 

@JWK Are you sure the barrow you've bought hasn't been wrongly labelled?

The red wheeled ones (front) are pneumatic, and the yellow ones (rear) are solid (no valve) have diamond tread and puncture proof. I've already swopped the red pneumatic one for the yellow solid tyre wheel because I'm cutting down some trees amongst brambles, wild roses and blackthorn and I'm barrowing the logs out.

You may have got what you paid for, but there might be some very dissatisfied customers at you local Wickes if they're paying an extra £31 in the belief it's got a puncture proof wheel when it's a wrongly labelled standard one.

 

The solid wheel for £19.99 would still be a good addition, but only if you need it. The path to my plot runs alongside a long length of hawthorn hedge that's cut every year, and even if I sweep it with a broom afterwards I still get punctures, rendering my barrow useless by the time I get there. It only takes a couple of minutes to swop them over so I might leave a pneumatic wheel and a couple of spanners in a shed for when the ground's soft.

P.S. I prefer the 'Red Barrow'
