Now that I'm a bit older, have a weird muscle disease, and am in the wheelchair occasionally, these long legs came in real handy. I have trouble with 10 gal...about 90lbs, but can just about manage the 7 gal fermentation buckets. I just use the wort cooler, and dispense. No longer have to lift and move my 20 gal pot first. (now nearly impossible without help) Now I just have to fill two buckets, and get them on a cart....and into my "brewery". My wife can even lift the 35-40 lb fermentation buckets, in a pinch. Wish I had got these years ago.
They raise the burner up off the floor to a reasonable height to make mashing a tad easier on my back. They held my SS Brew Tech 15 gallon kettle, 13.5 gallons of water and 28 lbs of grain easily.
