a very good trailer especially for the money Review by John Blakely
-
This is my second one. A person rear ended me and demolished the first one. I agree with all from above. a very good deal. narrow enough to get it places, light enough to be able to be moved around by hand, and can carry a lot of 4' by 8' material if you place the railings outside of the frame instead of within.

Great trailer for the money! Review by Jesse
-
I have put over 4,000 miles on this trailer in a little over a year. I tow it behind a Scion xD, which is similar to a Toyota Yaris, but with a Corolla engine. It tows very well. I built stake sides for it, and added a tongue box, spare tire, jack stand, and a few tie-down loops. The only thing I have replaced is one burned out light bulb (yesterday). I put a treated 3/4" plywood floor on it, but I routed out a bit so that the plywood sat flat on the side rails.
Assembly is not bad, although I have put a few of these together. This model is a bit stiffer than the foldable model. If you don't need it to fold, spend a few extra bucks for this one. This one has better tires, too. Even the foldable with 12" tires has cheaper tires than this one.
I also repacked the bearings with a high-quality grease. The stuff that comes with the trailer looks like petroleum jelly. They were somewhat dirty, anyway.

I LOVE my trailer Review by Garth McMurtrey
-
I drive a little BMW convertible, so I gotta haul stuff somehow... This little trailer is the ticket! It's light enough for a small car, and heavy enough to haul 2000 lbs of drywall mud! Wheel bearings are an odd size, ONLY available through Harbor Freight, and bearing seals are not available even there. I imagine seals can be ordered from a bearing warehouse. Pack 'em good, and keep track of them! If a bearing seizes and ruins the spindle, you need a new trailer. The 2X4 slots in the rails are worthless. Go to a hardware store and get some brackets made for fence construction and bolt them to the outside of the side rails.

Good value...Fair price Review by Nick
-
Like others mentioned, assembly can be a bit tedious in making sure parts are right, but I've done several trailers of this type and am used to assembling them. Use an air gun and buddy system and make short work of it. Use this mainly to haul my motorcycle or a small Bass Hunter boat on. Quite heavy duty in build quality and tires and axles compared to trailers you see being used by most, and cost is only slightly more than the light duty "folding" trailers.

Nice little trailer Review by stonecold
-
Had some issues with the lights not working. Found out through some electrical trouble shooting that the trailer tounge grounding screw is not a good ground at all possibly due to the paint to paint contact of the frame and tounge. Had to extend the white ground wire from my vehicle and mounted directly to the frame. This was after trading in a few wiring harnesses thinking they were bad. A lot of angst putting this thing together. Just like a big erector set. Nice little trailer over all though.

Excellent Value Review by Bill Pavone
-
The trailer was easy to assemble with provided instructions. I did not care for the tilt feature in a light weigh trailer and removed pins for a bolt to secure to frame for carrying heavy loads. All in all an excellent value for an inexpensive trailer. I use mine to rescue motorcycles and to transport a parade car.

Good, Low Price Review by CharliVN
-
If the company have better way ti ID's the part, it will take away a lot time in assembly.
One correction need to be make, the slot for the rail measure at 1" x 3.5" so it equipvelent to 1 x 4 lumber not 2 x 4

good value Review by dennis m.

this trailer is very much worth the money you will spend. I read the instructions over and over and had little trouble getting it built. true you are better off laying out the parts .some of the bolts are close in size. metric wrenches needed.

Good overall quality for the price Review by Dave
-
Parts need to be better marked, but if you study the pix
and match you'll be fine. Don't forget to measure
and seperate the hardware parts and frame parts.
If you want, go to the MV and tell them it's homemade
out of parts you had laying around.

Good Quality. Parts not marked. Factory Stickers upside down. Review by R Taylor
-
Pretty good quality trailor. Had to take a few pieces back apart because none of the rails are marked front or back. Really pleased once it was put together. Wish they made one that was a little bigger. Was missing one of the pins for one of the hubs. And because Wyoming is such a pain about titles I had to drive 45 mins back to the store to get the title notarized.

Quality OK but the parts aren't marked....... Review by J Foster
-
If you like to figure out puzzels this trailer is for you. Nuts & bolts on the plan are and assigined a part No. but without a bag to ID the part.. Non of the rails are marked i.e front left, rear right, up or down, ect. ect.. so "LOOK" at the pictures again and again and again and be ready to take it apart to get it right......Once its together the quality is pretty good eventhough the factory put some of the stickers on upside down..........
