I'm glad I bought a trailer instead of cheap electric motors.

I have used the trailer on two different trailers - heavy and light. The trailer helped me move both trailers short distances (5-10 feet) and fit them in a very limited space in my home. the garage. The driveway to my garage has a steep slope. I use an SUV to move the trailer wheels over the edge of the garage and then the trailer clerk for shorter trips around the garage. The trailer attendant also helped me connect the trailer to the tractor quickly and single-handedly - previously without a…

Pros
  • Everything is fine!
Cons
  • Cord is shorter than other picks

Not the helper you're looking for

First thoughts after first use. It's actually easy to install. However, I have a screw that fits on the back of the mount and the device itself, which is barely mentioned in the instructions. I had to remove everything to install. He moves my 29ft RV, yes! I did not order and pay for an adapter for a drill! Well, let's move on. If you take very small corners with the tires, everything is fine. If you turn 15-20 degrees to the right or left, pain in the buttocks begins. The leg or part of the…

Pros
  • Slim design
Cons
  • High price

I almost got seriously hurt (or worse)

Great idea but it has the disastrous flaw of not launching for anyone who could use it in any situation other than 100% flat. Can you move a 4500 trailer on a roundabout with a very slight incline? YUP! Can you do it with amazing ease? YUP! Does it have a practical and efficient braking system that allows you to stop the trailer while you check how you corner? YUP! Does this braking system work if, for some reason, the trailer chain inexplicably fails when the Trailer Valet works exactly the…

  • Great price

Did the job after the hiccup with the

. We attached this dolly to the frame of our 3000-pound, 21-foot trailer, and it allowed me to maneuver the trailer into a storage space in our difficult driveway without the risk Maneuver. I wish the mountless version was available for less than the "Max" version which sells for around $600. That's probably what we REALLY need because we won't be traveling with that very heavy dolly attached to the trailer in the "stowed" position. To use this particular model you MUST mount the bracket to the

Pros
  • mounting bracket. Weight
Cons
  • . I don't remember, but there was something

I've been researching trailer carts really tirelessly! Bite the bullet, this only works for the most important job, close-range surgical navigation in my garage. This saves time constantly switching between park/drive/reverse and walking 40 feet from my driver's seat to the back of the trailer to see how much further and stopping abuse in my gear. I was hoping I could just detach the boat from my SUV and wheel it gracefully into my garage, 10 feet from the driveway. IT'S NOT EASY I have to…

Pros
  • Satisfied so far
Cons
  • Some cons

Many of the negative reviews relate to wheel slip and hill climbing. When I first installed my Trailer Valet, I had the same problem with wheels on a grassy lawn, but there is a 'fix' that solves the problem for me. The fault is not in the design but in the instructions. Here's the question: you can't argue with the laws of physics. So if you don't have enough nose weight, the wheels will of course spin. The instructions (printed so small you almost need a magnifying glass to read them - really

Pros
  • Certified
Cons
  • Damaged

Functional, but structurally not durable!

No no no no no. In operation, the product handles maneuverability quite well. It obviously works better when going down a slight incline. Level score is ok. Mountaineering is hard work. But hey, this is superior to the alternative. The detachable cart itself is pretty damn heavy. And that requires a lot of room on your trailer's tongue and plenty of clearance around it to be able to turn in either direction if needed. Adding a second propane tank to the tongue can be deadly. This blocks the…

Pros
  • Absolute legend
Cons
  • Some problems

Great product in RV Parts and Accessories

EXCELLENT PRODUCT. Dispatched from the manufacturer a few days after one of the Revains arrived with a torn box and missing parts. The packaging isn't strong for something that heavy. It was easy to install and works exactly as expected based on feedback and instructions. I've read all the reviews and I seriously have to wonder if most of the negative reviews are written by competitors or by people who can't read very simple full instructions. tire skid problems. I'm towing a 16 foot cargo…

  • good cause

  • safety

Worked very well, 2500lb drawer and sloping road. with updates

Update 1 year Since Amazon reviews are dodgy these days, I felt the need to update this review 1 year later. Overall, after about a dozen uses, it still works very well. I don't store it outside and attach it to the popup so it never sees rain. It also deflates fairly quickly and will not function unless fully inflated. So remember to check the air regularly. Overall, I couldn't have left my pop-up in the garage without this device. It saves lives. Original Review: To be honest I'm not sure…

Pros
  • Sturdy finish
Cons
  • Good for the most part, but...
