Company Profile
Tow-Trust Towbars Ltd are one of the UK's largest manufacturers of towbars and towing accessories. Based in Atherstone, Warwickshire the company has set about forging a strong reputation amongst the trade for supplying the highest quality products. From commercial and non-commercial towbars to an expanding range of trade accessories, Tow-Trust are confident we have the right towing solution for you.

Here at Tow-Trust we have deliberately chosen to site ourselves at the premium end of the market, and this means sourcing the best quality steel and using the latest technology for design and manufacturing processes. This enables us to produce products that our nationwide stockists recommend without hesitation. The Tow-Trust promise from start to finish is simple, 'absolute quality'.

In today's competitive market, every brand and manufacturer seem to make the claim for the quality of their product, yet we constantly hear headlines of how companies are trying to cut costs in order to cheapen the manufacturing process of their products. Cheaper manufacturing costs may lead to cheaply made products, a concept Tow-Trust have challenged through heavy investment in our production process. The whole Tow-Trust operation, from initial computer aided design right through to our high-grade packaging of each towbar, exhibits a remarkable attention to detail.

You may be forgiven for now expecting that this makes our products expensive, however our dedicated sales team constantly monitor our prices to ensure we are competitively priced against all alternative manufacturers. Although our products may not be the cheapest on the market we firmly believe they offer true 'value for money'. We think anyone would agree that you cannot be the cheapest and the best at the same time, and for that very reason we have decided to become the best. After all, ask yourself the question: with a safety critical component such as a towbar would you really want to rely on using the cheapest product?

Tow-Trust have been a quiet success in the towing industry for over 20 years and until relatively recently, it is fair to say that most people who require use of a towbar may only know of a few brands. However, in today's modern world the internet has meant motorists have better access than ever before to new products and possibilities. It is time therefore for the towing industries previous best kept secret to now reap the rewards of years of hard work.

From commercial fleets to the private motorist who drives to the tip once a month, the demands of a towbar are relatively simple: that it is safe, fits well, looks good, and does the job it was intended for. Despite not seeming like a lot to ask, without the proper attention to detail and passion for the product it can be surprisingly difficult to find a towbar that ticks all the boxes and we believe this is where Tow-Trust comes in. In today's market where money is tight and competition is high, it turns out that quality is still a word that means something and with such dedication to producing quality, why would you trust anyone else ....

Vertical detachable swan neck towbar
The majority of Tow-Trust's detachable swan neck towbars are 'vertical' (VK) systems making them fully hidden behind the bumper once the detachable neck is removed. All our VK towbars incorporate a fold away electrical plate enabling the towbar electrics to fold behind the bumper when not in use. Key features of the vertical detachable system are;

Suitable for vehicles with reversing sensors
In most instances this system is completely invisible once the neck is removed and therefore preserves the aesthetic appearance of the vehicle
Alko compatible
Allows free access to the rear of the vehicle
Lockable with a set of two keys provided
Storage bag provided for safe keeping once neck is removed

Tow-Trust offer one of the largest ranges of 'swan neck' detachable towbars.  This system offers a removable solution for customers looking to combine a towing facility with maintaining the appearance of their vehicle.

The majority of our 'swan neck' detachable range are 'vertical' (VK) systems which in most cases are invisible kits that are fully hidden behind the bumper once the detachable neck is removed. Most VK detachable towbars come complete with a single fold away electrical socket plate which enables the towbar electrics to be moved up behind the bumper when not in use. For security purposes, all detachable necks are lockable and come with a set of keys to ensure peace of mind when the vehicle is left with the neck in place. A storage bag is also supplied once the neck is removed for safe keeping.

It is our aim to manufacture all detachables in the VK format due to their neat appearance when the neck is not attached. Unfortunately due to the design of some vehicles, it is not possible for a VK to be designed and fitted. This is usually due to insufficient space behind the bumper for the housing of the neck and the socket plate to be located. In this rare instance we still try to offer a detachable option by designing a 'horizontal' (HK) system. Whilst not being completely invisible this still offers a removable, lockable neck solution that enables customers all the benefits of a detachable system apart from it not being invisible.

The key features of a Tow-Trust detachable system are as follows:

  • Invisible*
  • Easy to use
  • Detachable towball
  • Retractable electric sockets
  • Aesthetically pleasing solution for executive vehicles
  • Increased security (Lockable neck)
  • Full VCA / RDW approval
  • Minimal maintenance
  • Alko compatible
  • Will not affect the reverse sensors once neck is removed

* Please note visibility of towbar and electrics is wholly dependent on vehicle make & model

Incredible image quality even when enlarged to full capacity
The quality and reliability of HP OfficeJet printers is unmatched, from my experience. I use this printer for regular everyday things like return labels and printing out documents but my favorite thing to use it for are art and design projects. I am able to copy an image and enlarge it up to 400%, or minimize its size to 25% which is an incredible range and perfect for design and art projects. As long as the ink cartridges are all at full capacity my images always come out flawless, even when I enlarge them huge. As long as I send an image in the right format or copy from a hard copy image it is always clear and crisp, not pixalized. Our craft room/office is in the basement and I am easily able to print from my kitchen or bedroom from my phone or laptop which is very convenient. The array of functions, the quality of the image, and the bright beautiful rich colors this printer is able to produce is really great if you plan to use it for design or art. I have never had a paper jam, which is very impressive considering I am always changing to photo paper as well as multiple different sized paper. I just received this printer but the HP printer I was using before still works like a charm and is close to 20 years old, if you are using this for your home I can't imagine having to replace it. My absolute favorite part is a 4 pack of extra large ink is $47.99 which is almost half of what my other printers ink cost. The wide format and large paper size I am able to print on has made our art projects really beautiful and uniform, rather than having to try to hide the seams of multiple pages taped together. Incredible product.

Pray you don't need HP Support to set up printer
HP Support is the absolute worst. If you have any setup issues with your HP printer, you're on your own. Their support is practically useless. I’ve been on a two-hour call trying to get wireless printing working. I’ve been transferred to three different people, and none of them knew how to help. Now I’m stuck on indefinite hold (over 30 minutes and counting) with no resolution in sight. I can print fine with a USB cable, but it simply will not print wirelessly no matter what we try. Extremely disappointed and frustrated with HP right now.

Very capable large format color inkjet printer
This thing is big. It’s replacing our Brother color laser, which didn’t get a lot of use (but is great for quick and cheap prints). The HP is longer in one dimension but less tall, so is roughly occupying the same space but with more wall visible (so looks less intrusive). Heavy. I could (and did) lift it on my own but all the packing and instructions say for 2 people to lift it. It’s manageable but I see why there’s that warning. Build quality is mostly plastic but sturdy enough for a static object. Scan lid opens easily, trays extend smoothly etc. Feels well build overall, no concerns. You can download installation instructions using a QR code and it’ll guide you to also install the HP app. The app ideally requires an account, mandatory if you plan to free trial the Instant Ink I think. I had an existing old HP account and used that. The setup was way enough but there’s a weird UI step in the app during pairing where the setup modal is blank grey with a greyed out “Next” button. Looks like it can’t find the printer. Wrong! Just hit Next to proceed. Weird and stupid and I wasted time figuring it out. Loses a star for that. Other than that, setup went fine and test print came out decent. WiFi connected ok and it also has Ethernet. The Brother only has WiFi but is flaky / goes to deep sleep too often. Testing with WiFi has been fine but I feel better knowing I can hardwire into my switch if there are issues! The HP shows on the network as an AirPrint target, and my Mac found it without issue / set up its own drivers. The fold out touch screen is nice, I wish it could be angled horizontally and not just vertically but it’s fine and responds predictably to touch. Colors and text are bright and crisp. Not quite laser crisp but pretty darn close to these old eyes. The colors are also better / truer in my opinion. Had issues with feeding vinyl sticker paper sheets, which repeatedly generated paper jam messages (at no point was the paper jammed) and wasted a lot of time. Willing to blame the paper / media (it’s slightly tacky) but our laser handled it ok. When it finally did print, I noticed some print quality issues / flaws repeatedly in the same places. Unsure of the cause and doesn’t impact subsequent printouts on other paper. Really like the ability to print larger (A3!) size. Note that scanning does not accommodate larger papers (up to Legal / same as the Brother). The supplied ink installed easily but they shipped me more as part of the Instant Ink trial. Subscribed to the lowest tier, which is affordable-ish (they just raised the lowest tier to $1.99 for 10 prints per month) but still costlier than laser. Not a huge fan of vendor lock-in / subs but did see in the fine print that HP allows third party inks to be used, which is reassuring if the subscription doesn’t make sense long term. While printing, the motion of the printer head caused my desk to shake. Worth bearing in mind if you plan on printing heavily while sharing a desk with it. Noise isn’t too bad, better than the laser printing noise we’re used to (lower frequency noise on the HP). I would not print during a zoom call though (noise + shaking). At time of review, $350 for a large format printer with built in scanning (and Ethernet) seems pretty decent. It’s not a bargain but it’s fair. Need to spend more time with other media and have ordered more paper types to test with. Will update if anything changes my rating but so far I feel like it’s a capable replacement for the color laser given our relatively modest print volume and need for higher quality color prints.

Reliable Wide-Format Office Printer – Versatile, Fast, and Feature-Rich
Reliable Wide-Format Office Printer – Versatile, Fast, and Feature-Rich ★★★★★ The HP OfficeJet Pro 9720 is a strong all-in-one wide-format printer designed for small offices or home office environments that need 11x17 printing capability. It handles printing, scanning, copying, and faxing in one unit, making it a very versatile productivity tool. Print quality is sharp and consistent, especially for documents, presentations, and color graphics. The wide-format support is a major advantage for users who need larger prints like spreadsheets, posters, or marketing materials. The automatic document feeder (ADF) and duplex printing features significantly improve efficiency, allowing for hands-free scanning and double-sided printing without constant manual input. Wireless connectivity is stable and easy to set up, with good support for mobile printing from phones and laptops. It integrates smoothly into typical office networks. Print speed is solid for an inkjet in this category, making it suitable for moderate to heavy office workloads. The included Instant Ink trial is a helpful bonus for managing ongoing supply costs. Overall, this is a dependable and well-rounded wide-format all-in-one printer that delivers strong performance, convenience features, and good print quality for office environments that require flexibility and larger document output.

Definitely Not Your Average Home Printer
What a beast of a printer. First thing to know is this is definitely not your standard little home office printer size. This thing is more small business office sized, so make sure you actually have room for it before it arrives. That said, the quality is exactly what I expect from HP. Setup was super easy and pretty painless overall. One quick tip though: remember to remove the cardboard insert from the paper tray before testing it because apparently I needed that reminder myself. Print quality is excellent, especially for color documents and larger format stuff. Everything comes out sharp, vibrant, and professional looking. The phone app is honestly one of my favorite parts. It makes it really easy to monitor ink levels, print from your phone, and troubleshoot without having to stand in front of the printer pushing buttons and getting annoyed. The touchscreen is responsive, wireless setup was smooth, and overall it just feels like a solid well thought out machine. Definitely overkill for someone who only prints a return label twice a year, but if you print a lot or need larger format printing, this thing is fantastic.
