Looking for something smaller that will rotate and move a drum in areas where the forklift can't go. These pop up all over the place rated at 360Kg, are they any use?

I already have this sort of drum trolley but it's a 2 man lift to rotate a drum of honey:

Looking for something easier/safer!

Chris B has one and I've had the pleasure of using it myself.

A good bit of kit.

Sealey sell them for something like £350 on fleabay.
 
There are many unbranded yellow ones on ebay advertising various maximum capacities of 300-400Kg. I went for the Sealey DH02 because I have a known manufacturer to contact for warranty if it fails. Ebay secured it for just under £300. Works like a charm!
