I can only comment on the mover I chose, which was an enduro eco - Cost me £500 fitted it myself - also fitted one to my brother in laws caravan - been in use 2 years with no problems at all - I think they come with a 5 year warranty
We have a Truma mover on the current van (2 years) and no problems, we also had a Truma on our previous two vans (same mover) 11 years no problems.
The current one cost us £650 fitted and they gave us £250 for leaving the old one on the trade-in, all part of a deal though....

Same , had one for two years, just swapped it over to our new van, and still going strong, great product for a good price.

The road can be tough and rough,but what you put in you get back 10 x more.
Like the others I would only recommend the one I have which is a powrtouch. I have had it for 7 years, and apart from my own stupidity I managed to break one of the battery connection wires. I was in France at the time so emailed they told me to return it to them to be repaired. I said that I was in France and would be prepared to pay the return postage. I sent it off on the Friday and I received it back the following Saturday.Which was excellent service considering that the Monday and Tuesday in the middle were Bank Holidays. I was told that there would be no charge for the return.
Finally powrtouch have a 5 year Garauntee, and mine was 2 years out of it.

They are all much of the same. The only thing that does stand out is the comments you hear about the after sales service of Powrtouch. You quite often read stories like that of Les with replacement parts and repairs being issued FOC to people even after the warranty has expired.
I had on of these http://www.riverswayleisure.co.uk/acatalog/info_910666.html fitted nearly a month a go. I had problems with the fitting in the fact the didn't even fit it properly. They didn't send somebody out to try to find the fault they were just gonna order a part and then come and fit that 2 weeks later. I eventually got bored waiting and found that there was a wire not fitted, so when i complained they really weren't bother about what i had to say. I've only used it this weekend just gone and am not 100% it's working correctly. Hopefully gonna give it another run out this weekend and hope for a better move with it. I know there will be people who've had this same unit fitted and had no problems but the customer service seems very disapointing as to the unit i dont know yet.
Enduro,i fitted it nearly 6 years ago and is now on its second van.It has to move my van 30 metres from side of my garage to my drive at front of house ,no problem,just keep moving parts lubricated.
Best thing you will ever buy! We have the Reich Move Control Comfort and it is brilliant. We had a failure of the Control Panel in France when it was 4 years old and Reich immediately couriered a replacement to our pitch on campsite near Marseilles. Brilliant service!
Some other considerations (apart from price) when buying:
-How do you move it to contact the tyre? Some take more effort than others and some can be bought with an automatic system. I helped an elederly couple once in France that found the force needed to flip the roller into position, too much.
-Where does it sit compared to the road? I think the greater the height, the better.
-Will it transfer to another van when you change?
We had the "Royal Titan 2" fitted from Riversway earlier this year. Its great and does the job especially as we've a sloping driveway. Our van is lightweight and its been well worth the money for our van.
Good luck with your choice.
