I would choose a purple wheelbarrow every time BUT the only use for it here would be as a decorative planter outside the back door, in a very sheltered corner. We have been here 10 months so far and OH is on his 3rd wheelbarrow, and I don't give it long. The others while not actually expired are not long for this world! So the moral of this story is to wait and get the best and most robust quality possible.
