paigeoliver:

Mine is two-tone brown, with assorted cabinet marks and general scuffs (only about 1/4 of them are from me).

I tried moving a Punch Out up stairs. There were two of us. It wouldn't budge.

We had to take out both monitors and call in two more guys.

i think mr megalo's the man to ask here... but here's my 2p's worth.

i live in a warehouse conversion apartment, those with a double height ceiling tall enough to have a trampoline...

unfortunately, the developer decided against having a lift in the building, so we've got these stairs that spiral up, 2 flights per floor with a small landing in between. i live on the 2nd floor with a view like that of being on the 4th floor of a typical building.

when i bought my japanese cab, 2 delivery men turned up. when they saw the stairs they said, "no chance" straight up. i had to then run around the grounds of my development looking for the east european - and probably illegal handy workers to help lift the 120kg* cab up the stairs.

*correction. the cyberlead 120kg.

the turns in the stairs are barely just wide enough for the cab to turn for the 4 of us. everyone were completely knackered afterwards.

when mr megalo came to pick it up a few weeks ago, he brought his mate who was built like a brick wall. that occasion he was at the bottom on his own and mr megalo & i helped lower it from the top using the handles.

mr megalo swears that he can carry these cabs down between him and his petite girlfriend. he did somehow manage to get a 50" cab home on another occasion... ::)

anyway... good luck!

I've done that by myself as well.  Those things are on wheels.
