Aosom Bike Cargo Trailer, Bicycle Trailer, Heavy-Duty Bike Wagon Cart, Foldable Compact Storage, with Universal Hitch, 16" Wheels, 88 lbs. Capacity, Black

We bought this rack for my son so he could carry yard tools and other items when he rides around the neighborhood looking for jobs. It attaches very easily and is very durable. Great quality for the money we spent on it. It's fits all of his tools nicely

The basic design works for me as I need a trailer that connects to the seat post instead of the rear axle, but there are two (2) issues that hold it back from five (5) stars, both related to how the trailer tongue connects to the trailer. 1. Because the bottom bolt connects to the body of the trailer, you need to remove it before you can detach the front rail and fold down the side rails to store the trailer. Understandable design choice, but it is inconvenient. 2. The top bolt is just long enough, which means it is too short as it can easily unscrew itself as the trailer bounces around, which happened to me when I was towing a five (5)-gallon jug of water. On top of that, the jug slipped to the back of the trailer, which caused it to tip backwards and bend the bottom bolt as the trailer stayed connected to the bike (strong connector), and the bottom bolt was impossible to remove and replace without a hammer or a grinder. For this, I would recommend a longer top bolt and a thicker bottom bolt (I will be getting a few replacement parts just in case this happens again). Also, a word of warning: Because the trailer tongue is so long and somewhat flexible (cannot really do much to fix that for a seat post connection), even if everything else is secure, the trailer can flip on its side. This seems to be less of a problem if you load heavier items toward the front of the trailer instead of the rear, but I need to test that some more.

As noted by others the instructions are very terse. Assembly however is very straight forward, had it together in about 45 minutes including the "figuring it out" factor. Of note, the seat post on my mountain bike is thicker than the trailer hitch was meant for and it was somewhat difficult to get both bolts started because of the length of the bolts too short by a couple millimeters. Had to omit the lock washer on one bolt to have enough thread to get the other bolt started. The trailer tongue clears the bike rack perfectly so I can keep the saddle bags on the bike in addition to the trailer. Construction of all components is solid, it was well packaged, and the paint and finish is nice. Overall a very well thought out piece of equipment. Aired the tires to 30 lbs last night to let them stretch out a little before pumping up to the full 36 lb psi. This a.m. the tires were at 20 lbs psi. May need some inner tube stop leak, will see. Took it for first test run, couple of miles down the road with a small load and I hardly knew it was behind me. So far I'm REALLY liking this trailer. I plan on ham radio bike expeditions and fishing trips and this truly beats the heck out of stacked milk crates on the bike rack! Just have to remember to swing a little wider around turns and be careful on narrow paths. This will be my o-fish-all fishing and and ham radio field day main mode of transportation!

Was a little hesitate on this purchase because I usually don't buy items off amazon this pricey & more of a DYI guy...but man is this thing AWESOME! When I was looking around I didn't like the typical dog carriers because the 'enclosure' idea due seemed like heat trouble & lack of view for my boy 'Hoops' was discouraged - rigging this up seemed like an alternative to those cons. With a few additions after assembly the dream was achieved, now my 13yr old bud and I have cracked up a lot of people in the neighborhood. (especially when I turn on the rope lights tied along the trailer frame on at night hehe) I've had the trailer for two months now so figured that was long enough to form a decent opinion. The product itself: - Putting together was mostly smooth, instructions could have been a little clearer but if you're comfortable with tools you'll be fine [hex bolt alert - go get the bit to speed things up] - When securing the 'spring axles' for tires do not overexert! I did, snapped the clip, and impaled my hand with exposed end. But now I've got a cool hand scar so...yeah sure go for it! (kidding.) - When you fasten attachment 'clip' to bike make sure the red button isn't pressed against the bottom of your seat, this can release the connection and leave the trailer behind.....not that I know what that's like or anything... - Another note on attachment: How high your bike seat is will determine the slope in the trailer 'bed.' Since my cruiser bike is on the lower side, the bed leans forward - but with my travel bike it's level since the seat is higher (really just an aside for pet's comfort in travel haha) - The 'weak point' of the assembly is the bottom nut that fastens the attachment arm to trailer body beneath the trailer bed. Go ahead and replace the bolt they give you with a longer thread, that's what I ended up having to do because I wore through the 'stock' one in about a month. - As for driving, don't get overconfident from onlookers and bank too hard around a corner. The location of attachment arm presents the opportunity for trailer to flip and dump out items in such a situation...not that I know what that's like or anything... Otherwise this is a great purchase! :) Just go ahead and get it if you have an remote interest haha

Works nicely once you figure it out. On my first use, had an incident at the tow bar attachment at the cart itself. Nothing a little rope couldn't fix, but not being near home made it an issue. Bought some pipe clamps which can be finger tightened anywhere I am with the trailer and the problem was resolved. This trailer is nice because it is collapsible and light enough to carry to wherever you want to store it. The wheels detach easily, but reattaching them takes a couple of minutes because the washer nuts have to be aligned into a groove. Overall I am happy with this purchase.

Only had it a week but after a few short trips it’s done the job well. The quality could be a bit better; the two pieces of the arm did not connect together as far as they should and it make connecting them with the screw almost impossible (managed to get it through), and the holes in the frame that the arm itself connects to are not centered well so the arm is noticeably crooked. Those minor issues aside the trailer has been working VERY well (so far) and I like it quite a lot. It rides very smooth, other reviewers were right you can barely even feel that you’re pulling something behind you. The release button is great, push it and the trailer disconnects from the hitch so you can pull the trailer around in lieu of a (usually broken) shopping cart. Very handy. The bottom of the trailer is very smooth plastic, I recommend buying one of those collapsible trunk organizers, I got one that is almost exactly the same dimensions as the trailer, PERFECT for a grocery run.

This trailer does what I needed it to do but cheapest material construction is defines this trailer. As far as portability and "fold down" for storage. Not unless you carry the required tools with you and that's always fun on a bike ride! The strut/handle that goes from the seat post down to the trailer is extremely flimsy unless you bolt it to the front cross section of the trailer. I added wingnuts to help with disassembly if I need to fold the trailer completely down for storage. I will keep the trailer and use it but I won't be buying this again if needed.

Seems to be exactly what I needed. Great cart but hitch comes off at the slightest bump with no emergency straps as all others have. This caused me more damage than 10 carts at the price I paid. Now I'm being sued for damages to another vehicle because it came off. Not to mention my losses with my computer I was hauling moving into my new house. I'm very disappointed in this product. Would like to be reimbursed for damages for faulty craftsmanship
