So disappointed! for stroller

The mounting plate kit that came with it was not long enough for my stroller frame so the one screw attachment could not secure the second screw as the base was about 1 1/2 inches too short. Also, the gooseneck assembly that connects the wheel to the mounting plate didn't fit completely into the case. Something was wrong with the weld, so the gooseneck stopped about an inch from the gap. This made it impossible to securely attach the wheel to the mount as the holes for the quick release did not

Pros
  • Beautiful packaging
Cons
  • Only available in black

Poor quality control and cheap

The actual U-tube was not centered when the fasteners were welded causing the tire to tip slightly to one side when fully fitted which I think is the main reason for this thing breaks. When walking slowly, the front wheel began to sway from side to side, or "swing at speed." Imagine that one of the wheels of a shopping cart turns from side to side. I'm pretty sure a slightly tilted wheel will try to tighten the square tube, which in turn will start to twist/resist twisting, leading to even more

Pros
  • New
Cons
  • Doubtful

As for the life change of my two older dogs. I would rate that a 10. We've done 5 "walks" of 1.5 miles and I haven't used the bike rack yet. As a technical part it is not difficult to assemble and the materials for the Large Dog 88lbs model I have are good. They might work better for the following reasons: the front wheel wobbles and you need to tighten the bearing nut. When I did this I lubricated both ball races because it needed enough pressure on the bearings to stop the wobble at high…

Pros
  • GOLS certification
Cons
  • I vaguely remember

Does what it's supposed to do, but doesn't convince.

I use this with the Solvit HoundAbout pet bike trailer. It's functional and does what it's supposed to do, but overall I'm not convinced. Handlebars: Slightly irritating to the eye where the clamps on the trailer need to be tightened. It also seems that the clamps can become loose over time or easily overtightened which could damage the trailer (this has not happened before). It's a bit fiddly to make sure it's evenly clamped on both sides. Would have preferred something to flatten (grooves…

Pros
  • Excellent overall performance
Cons
  • Negative result available
