I havnt had any probs with mine,i like the way the bottom drawer is divided up into sections,previous to this i had 2 rive,an st & a rx,they offer brilliant
stability for the larger angler & are the best on the market,but the shallow
pull out drawer under the seat that comes permanent with every one is a load
of pants,its too shallow for all your bits & bobs,God knows why they keep it.If
you fit the drawer dividers it becomes shallower again.I sold my last one & had enough for the 6 leg matchcraft(river rock) platform & the x3 with trolley.
In summer i fish lakes set up out in the water.I set up the platform & plonk the x3,minus the footplate ontop,in winter,im mainly on canals,so just use the
box with footplate.i wouldnt recomend the x3 for a big angler if you have to set up with the legs fully extended,but if you only have to level it up,its a
good box for the money,comfortable seat as well.Hope ive helped you

Sure have! I'm knocking around the 16stone mark, so not sure if you class that as 'big' or not lol!

I'm umming and aahing between the Milo Professional, Preston X3 / X5 and Boss MDS to be honest.

Ur a puppy dave!.if youve got the readies & want the box to do everything,
without buying a seperate "piper alpha",then i'de say go for the milo.I cant
tell you about the professional model in particular,but every one ive seen
ooze class.they weigh a bit though!.i saw the top of the range milo last year,
it was that big & solid,it could be used for milking Bulls?????????
