Anyone with a motor mover on their caravan?

How much 'omph' does yours have?
Just got back from a weekend deciding whether to keep the caravan after not using for 2 years.
I'm loving it again. Towing fine. Campsite manoeuvring fine.
Only headache is bumping it up over the dropped curb to get it back on the drive - too tight for reversing.
Me + 3 kids can push it with a run up no probs, but eldest has left home now.
Would your motor mover do this?
Would I literally be able to shift it myself then?
Relatively speaking it's light - 760kg.
Thanks for any advice!

We had one retro fitted to our caravan. It was easy to bump it over the kerb (our driveway entrance is wider than the dropped kerb) and up an incline. Caravan was approx 1100kg and it was like having a full sized remote controlled toy.

@MrsMoastyToasty just what I needed to hear. Thank you!

The dropped kerb where I keep our caravan is not that good. I put a length of decking timber in the gutter and my Powertouch motor mover shifts my 1500kg up it easily.

Motor mover plus a little help from yourselves pushing at the back to help it over the kerb
