Price and rating as shown on Amazon when we collected them. Both change.
The Ben Sayers Electric Golf Trolley is the second entry in this guide, at £349.00, rated 4.3 out of 5 from 233 ratings. Ben Sayers lists a 200W motor, a nine-speed control dial, a distance function that sends the trolley 10M, 20M or 30M ahead, and an 18-hole lithium battery which the bullets say lasts up to five times longer than a lead-acid one. The contradiction is further down the same page: the specification table states "1 AA batteries required. (included)". An 18-hole trolley battery and a single AA battery are not the same thing, and both lines are on Ben Sayers' own listing.
That table also gives the material composition as 100% Polyamide, while the bullets describe a lightweight aluminium frame. The five star buckets on the page — 62, 20, 11, 2 and 5 — add up to exactly 100, on a listing that reports 233 ratings. Everything here comes from the Amazon listing for the Ben Sayers Electric Golf Trolley, model G5214; we have not tested it ourselves.

Questions people ask
What battery does the Ben Sayers trolley use?
The bullets say an 18-hole lithium battery is included. The specification table on the same page says "1 AA batteries required. (included)", which is not a trolley battery.
How long does the battery last?
Ben Sayers says the 18-hole lithium battery has a life span up to five times longer than a traditional lead-acid battery. The listing gives no runtime in hours and no number of rounds in metres or miles, only the 18-hole figure.
How much does the Ben Sayers Electric Golf Trolley cost?
£349.00, which makes it the second entry in this guide rather than the cheapest or the dearest.
How many speeds does it have?
The Ben Sayers trolley has a nine-speed control dial and a pre-set distance function that moves it forward 10M, 20M or 30M.
What comes with the trolley?
Ben Sayers lists an accessory pack it values at over £100: accessory station, umbrella holder, scorecard holder, phone holder, rain cover and a carry bag, plus the trolley itself.
Is the frame actually aluminium?
The bullets describe a lightweight aluminium frame for easy transportation. The specification table lists the material composition as 100% Polyamide, so the two lines disagree.
