Thread 66059 "Roller _Affordable_Storage_Drawers.aspx - Outback vs Black Widow" atracted a fair amount of interest and feedback, and I have posted my final decision there. however, it's looking a little buried so I'll repeat it here, and in my blog ...

Well here it is: The Decision.
My considerations were:
cost, weight & ease of fit (in case I did it myself)

Other forum contributors's considerations included those three, plus
value (not the same as cost) (applies to me too)
ability to move to another vehicle (not for me)
looks (?)
manufacturer's support & service (yes)
accessories (hmmm)
safety (one comment against BW)

So, although, I like the idea of choosing the quality products available from Black Widow or Outback (not much to choose between them, it seems),
and fitting by TJM (expensive), financial sense and the weight of these systems has put me off, and I have decided to do some of the work myself (like a bed extension)
and I therefore chose . . . .

The 40Kg _Affordable_Storage_Drawers.aspx from :Best OffRoad
i have placed an order for _Affordable_Storage_Drawers.aspx and fridge slide, and eagerly await the product.
Jim is also throwing a length of carpeting so my bed extension, and anything else I do, will match.
There, decision made.

Cause if your close to Calliope and need a hand to fit them then give me a yell and I'll come over and help out.

Cheers Kev

Thanks Sir Kev,
(at least I know where Calliope is !)
I'm near Mackay but Jim of best Offroad assures me I can fit them in 10 minutes.

Doug

Best Offroad produces a good product at a reasonable price. I am sure that you will be happy with your purchase.

It pays to shop around for the right set-up and price to suit your needs.
