I kept getting burst tyres on mine due to hawthorn hedge clippings lying about after hedge cutting so plumped instead for a bog standard builders one from the builder centre, with a solid wheel and had no problems with it

I agree with compost.....think I got mine from Wickes, had it for about 4 years and never had a problem with it

If they're available in the UK, I highly recommend getting a double wheel wheelbarrow. Best money I ever spent. No more straining to keep the load upright - the dual wheels handle it all. Mine also has a release lever so that a full load will dump over on its own without me pushing it over. I can get 5x the work done without tiring so quickly.

My dual wheel barrow looks like the heavy duty in bucket size. Really do love that one, especially when I have to push full loads uphill (we live on a sloped property).
