Columbia rollers
« on: August 20, 2004, 03:02:15 AM »
Hey is there anyone here on columbia staff or works for them that knows anything about the current bag lineup?  I hear that the new rollers are being discontinued.  Is this true because I want to buy the EZ roller 3.

Don't buy that bag.. Its a piece of junk.. According to Columbia customer service, most if not all of the 3, 4 and 6 ball rollers where recalled for handle and other issues.

These new bags might look nice, but they are very poorly manufactured.

I have the EZ Roller 3. The handle is a bit flimsy. There's a lot of play in it. It's still holding up though. I try to be VERY careful with it so I don't break the handle. I got it off bowlersdream.com. But I'd recommend getting another brand of bags.

I have to back up what Jkiser said. The Columbia 3 ball roller that  I
bought was the worst bag I have ever owned.

Heard that Columbia has found a new supplier for the bags and the latest shipments are from this new supplier.  They seem sturdy enough in the store, but I haven't heard any feedback about the new bags under field conditions.
