I found for me that the Motocaddy folded a lot smaller than the equivalent Powakaddy (i have the M3 Pro)
To me the build quality looked seemed better
The main thing that swung it for me was the powakaddy battery warranty was 2 years and the motocaddy is 5 years
The OP, based on the price mentioned, is looking at the S1 rather than the M3. I have the push version of this. It is very good but I suspect folds to a similar size to the PC version. The M1 is a step up and folds much smaller.

My Apologies - thought it said M1 not S1
Still doesn't change the comment about battery warranty or build quality though!
Quite right and the type of info that matters :thup:

Thanks for the replies guys. Have looked online and don't mind paying extra for the M1 or even M3 if it's worth the money.
And yes you are right, the battery warranty does make a big difference
Ive got the S3 and if i was to get a new one it would be the basic model, loads of stuff on mine i just don't use.

To be honest, i got a deal on the M3 a year or so ago - i wanted the M1 as space was a premium in my car boot at the time, which meant the S1 wouldn't fit.
I don't think i've ever used the USB port at all!

I recently bought the m3 pro after looking at all the motocaddy and powakaddy range. The lithium battery warranty and the small size when folded swayed it for me. It is a great trolley with great features.
If your looking to buy online then i have a 10% off code for Snainton that I didn't use in the end (was impatient and wanted it next day) and I dont mind giving you it if you want - will give you £55 off an M3 pro lithium
Golfjuice10 will get you 10% of at Golfonline too, just in case there's a variance in prices.

Thank youWill look into it tonight properly, look as to what I need and don't need. Think the basic one will be enough for me to be honest, but will see what extras come when upgrading models, which I haven't done yet.

What's the difference between the M and the S?

Basically the M series fold up smaller than the equivalent S series

I also think the M series is a lot neater if you use accessories - the M has a built in device cradle and accessory station for umbrella holders etc whereas the S series you have to clamp these on to the handle.
Just noticed you play 2 minutes from me as well! Im a member at Greetham!
ive the S3pro, which has all sorts of built in operating features, which Ive never used.
The S is a single bar and the M a sort of meccano like so it folds up smaller with 2 bars and a flatter battery housing.
