User Ratings and Reviews

5 Stars For the Grandkids
I have not used the trailer because of time constrains. It will be used this coming weekend.

The trailer is just what I wanted.

From placement of order to receiving the item, there were no glitches. I rated the overall service as 5 stars.

Look forward to my next purchase.

5 Stars Great Bike Trailer
I bought this trailer to carry luggage, not children, and it has worked out great! I went to Martha’s Vineyard for a weekend and was able to put my backpack and my wife’s backpack plus food items and more in the trailer and it worked great!

4 Stars Great price
We love our trailer but the only thing is, make sure you are athletic and in shape before you purchase it. My husband has to attach it to his bike b/c I get too tired to trail the 2 kids around in it (they are about 30lbs each). I have to say that it is really roomy and lots of fun for the kids! It attaches to the bike easily and is easy to assemble, etc.

1 Star Very cheap materials
Though we were initially thrilled, we were not so happy when the first of the restraint straps broke within a few weeks of purchase. A few weeks later a second strap broke, rendering one side of the trailer unusable. Six months later, straps on the other side began fraying and snapping. Mind you, this was with infrequent use and with two children under the age of three–not really heavy or active kids. The trailer was kept outside in mild weather, covered and in the shade. Now (at just over a year of ownership) all of the straps have completely rotted apart and it is completely unsafe to put our kids in it. After reading through several of the other reviews, this is clearly a recurring issue.

Though we ultimately purchased the Instep Take 2 for less than $100 (on sale), I wouldn’t buy this trailer again for half the price. I’m all for saving a buck where you can, but this is a *complete* waste of cash.

5 Stars Great Deal, Great Price
I couldn’t be happier with this product. It works perfectly for our little one, and can’t imagine anyone spending the money on a name brand bike trailer when they could get this item for less than $100. I will say that the cloth seats and belts inside seem a little on the cheap side, but it works perfectly for neighborhood strolls. I would recommend this item to anyone on a budget who wants some quality outdoor bike time with their baby.
