4 years on it's still working great
I was perusing Amazon for options to add a pair of inflatable stand up paddle board racks to this trailer, which triggered me to look at this trailer's page, which made me realize that I've owned this trailer for over 4 years. I bought it when my oldest daughter turned one and have used it for one kid, two kids, dogs, groceries, all sorts of stuff. It's never wowed me, but I didn't expect it to make it this long and honestly, I have no real complaints. If that's not worth 5 stars, I'm not sure what is. Pros: -Weight capacity is real, we're pushing 70 lbs between the two girls at this point with no guff from the trailer. We'll probably be pushing well over the limit with the iSUPs attached. -Minimal maintenance, I've added slime to the tires and that's about it. InStep recommends a 10mph max speed, pretty sure I've doubled that and then some. -Pretty durable, aside from the rip I put in the back sliding it around on the backside of the frame it's holding together great. -Quick and easy attachment, even on my fatbike it's ~15 seconds to put on once the attachment is installed on the bike. It has survived multiple bike tip overs without any issues. -Cheap, the price has gone up a bit since I bought and it's still well under the price of a used Burley. Cons: -Small wheels = heavier towing. I'm also not a fan of how they install, but I can't complain about how well they've worked. -Not bulletproof, as I mentioned I managed to rip the fabric on the back and one of the rods has punched through on the canopy. The flag has escaped too. Treat it well enough and this won't happen to you. I expected this would be the entry into trailers and we'd end up with a Burley before our kids grew out of it. Not the case, this will get them to the point that they can ride on their own. It's getting a bit long in the tooth, but that just means time to modify and strengthen. Great budget trailer, highly recommended.

Very good for the price
Knowing that I was only going to use this once in a while in the park, I didn't want to spend a bunch of money, and this was the best priced product I could find. Assembling wasn't too much trouble (the hooking it up to my bike was the most difficult part, the instructions weren't that clear, so I attached the whole thing at the same time...whilst only at the end did I realize you can remove the cap from the cart end and attached that part to your bike, then hook the rest). Which makes it very easy to attach and detach. I have a 3 year old which is 36 inches tall and about 36 pounds. What I really liked about this one is that it has 3 seating positions. So you can have two kids side by side or you can have one kid and he can seat in the middle (there is an extra strap holder so fit it that way, so she does not have to go on one side or the other). You can adjust the "seat" by tightening the straps underneath it, so it is not too saggy. I took it for a test ride and of course my 3 year old loved it, she was giggling all the way (never know how long the excitement would last, but looks like this one is a winner). We picked up her friend along the street (another 3.5 year old about an inch shorter) and they both fitted just find, if snuggly, in the cart. It is very stable, you can turn pretty fast and it holds well, it's not as hard to pull as I would have thought. Quality seems pretty decent, I don't know how long the fabric would last (it does not look like the sturdiest thing ever, but I'm hoping it'll last).

Useful
For us, buying this trailer was a necessity, because we don’t have a car, and we need to regularly take our child to and from kindergarten. So we spent a long time choosing a brand and settled on this one. It is taller than other models on Amazon. My child is 3 years old and fits comfortably in this trailer, and there is still plenty of headroom. During the first week of use, the button on top fell off, which allows you to cover the child inside. This was very unpleasant. Otherwise, everything is fine. I also like that there is a spacious trunk for things in the back. We have 2 bicycles in our family - a very old rusty regular bicycle and an electric one. We bought an additional adapter for the second bicycle and we can connect the trailer to any of them. There are no problems transporting the trailer on any of them. Even an old simple bicycle pulls it wonderfully. I don’t feel much difference at all between riding a simple bicycle without a trailer and with it. I recommend the product. But I ask the seller to change the buttons on the cover to better quality ones.

Great product, even better Customer Support
I purchased two of these, one for each of two mountain bikes my wife and I ride. My moutain bikes are cheapie bikes (under $80.00) from Target -- and no offense to anyone that considers that caliber of bike "nice," -- but I know most people in my neighborhood spend at least 4-5x that on a bike. THAT being said -- install was a breeze, each of our bikes are different makes (Schwinn, and Mongoose). The unit comes out of the box easily, every clicks and snaps confidently into place and you're literally ready to ride with your little one(s) in under 10 minutes. I have a 35lb two year old and a 24lbs 1 year old -- both have ridden comfortably in one unit, and of course they ride comfortably in each of their own units. Turning while riding the bike is easy and this thing handles bumps/curbs really well and doesn't seem to slow me down. It's great exercise and quite frankly at first I couldn't even feel that it was attached, and I only had to downshift one or two gears at times to compensate for the extra weight. Full disclosure -- on the tire, it recommends no higher than 36psi. I inflated therefore to 36 psi, not reading the manual well enough where it says 20-25psi (max 25). One morning I went to get the kids ready to ride, and the tire was "flat" (the innertube was ruptured). I called the 800- number and they quickly answered, recommended I no longer fill past 25psi, and mailed me a new wheel, innertube, and tire within 3-10 business days. They were very polite and professional on the phone, they just needed the model info and date code that's on the base of the frame just inside the left wheel axle. Can't speak more highly of this company or this product, should get many years of fun out of it. --- Update: got my new wheel, innertube, and tire -- brand new from the company, all is good again -- came in 4 days from the phone call.

AWESOME!
Honestly, I rarely write reviews, but I felt I needed to write one for this trailer. This trailer is absolutely perfect for what I was looking for. I have a women's Schwinn bicycle and it attached so easily. I've read lots of reviews that said it took a long time to attach. Literally, out of the box and pulling my son down the road took me about 20 minutes tops. It collapses for travel/storage purposes and so "putting it together" consisted of popping it open. I attached the screen and plastic shield (which I rolled up since it was still warm). I have the quick release wheel on my bike so I just loosened it (I did not take the wheel off), balanced the bike so the tire didn't come off, attached the trailer and tightened it back up. Quick pump of the tire and done! My son was a little apprehensive about so at first I had to ride up and down the driveway with our fearless Bichon in it - she loved it too! It does seat two small children and I could see how it may be squishy, but I only have my son and I strapped him in, in the middle. It rides very nicely; a lot nicer than I had expected for a $90 trailer! I didn't have any concerns about it tipping over and we went down some fairly steep hills and somewhat sharp corners. It also allows for you to lay your bike down while it is attached, without tipping or wobbling, for those who don't have kickstands, like me. Also, once you lay the bike down the child's feet will touch the ground while in the trailer, which isn't optimal for wear and tear, but it makes it easy to get him or her out. Excellent, excellent product. I cannot wait to take it out again in the spring!

I can tow my 5-yr-old and 2-yr-old with ease, though TIGHT fit
I have a Huffy Regency cruiser bike (womens). It took me less than 30 minutes to get the trailer out of the box, read the instructions, and hook it up. It felt very secure, especially since it contains a safety strap that loops around a bar near the back tire. I like to ride solo, but when it's time to hook up the trailer, I can unfold it (I always leave the wheels on) and have it attached to the bike in 2 minutes or less. It's so easy! I have two kids: a tall 5-yr-old who is 47" and 44 lbs and a 2-yr-old who is 37" and 33 lbs. Both kids fit in the trailer (without the sun shield), but it is VERY tight. Not only are the kids shoulder to shoulder, but my 5-year-old's knees are practically in her chin (I won't allow her to ride with her feet dangling outside the trailer). It's fine for short trips, but they look too squished and uncomfortable to tolerate a long ride. I don't mind, as I really bought the trailer to just tow my youngest child. That said, my 2-yr-old has no problem fitting in the trailer by herself. What I like best is that the 4 harness straps (2 for the left seater; 2 for the right seater) are equipped with buckles that allow the 2 middle straps to work as a separate harness when towing one child. I don't have to fiddle with turning belts around or rearranging them in different slots. I can go from towing both kids to towing just one--seated in the center--without changing the harness positions. I also like the "trunk" space BEHIND the seat. I often take my bike/trailer to the community pool, and I can fit a large tote filled with the towels, snacks, pool toys, etc. in the back. That's an added bonus! I am really out of shape and just recently got my bike & trailer. I find it very easy to tow my toddler, make turns, and go uphill. I think I expected it to be more of a workout. I highly recommend this trailer!

Great Bicycle Trailer!
We purchased two new bicycles for our anniversary this year and were on the hunt for a great way to allow our two children (2 and 5 yrs old) to accompany us on bicycle rides. Our 5 year old loves to ride along on her own bicycle but she can't keep up for any extended period of time, so longer rides were out unless we found something that would work for both children. We researched many bicycle seats and trailers and found this one to be a safe option and a great value for the money. Upon receiving the trailer, we were able to assemble it and attach it to my husband's bicycle in less than 15 minutes. It was super easy and also folds back up without a problem so we can get it in the back of our van and transport it to the park. The trailer is sturdy, even with both children inside, and while they don't have a whole lot of "wiggle room" it does allow ample space for both children. They love riding behind Daddy and even our 2 year old (who is a "complainer" in most strollers and the carseat) doesn't complain at all. I can't comment on how this trailer would handle on rough terrain because we mostly stick to paved paths, but on paved paths it handles without a problem and you barely know it's there (except up a few steeper hills, but that's to be expected). We have tried it out on a bit of grassy area and didn't have any problem with it there. Overall I can't think of any real complaints about this trailer and I wouldn't hesitate to buy it again.

とてもいい買い物でっす!
品質:申し分なし 価格:2万弱(送料込)は申し分なし(3,4万なら高いな、と思っていた) 注文から配達期間:14日間(5月2日注文16日到着、想定通り) いやー、素晴らしい。保育園の子どもの送迎と休みの日に出かける時用です。 わくわくしてます。自分はトライアスロンの練習に、重石として有効活用w 子どもは自分の乗り物だぁーと大喜び。 事前に知っておきたかった点: 1.アメリカ仕様なので、右側通行仕様となっていて、 旗は左側に挿すようになっており、反射板も左側です。今更写真をじっくりみれば、 ああ、右側通行仕様になってるなw、と。反射板はいつか付け替える予定です。 旗は実は一本買ったので(理由は後述)、それをつけ二本出しw 2.空気バルブが米式。持っている空気入れが英式(普通はこれ)と米式に 対応していてホッとした。 やや困った点: 1.付属品が含まれていた:自転車の脱着アダプターがあり、旗も付いてた。。。 いやー、これは付いていないもんだと思って、このInStepに付けれるものを 先に別注してしまいました orz..誰かアダプター買いませんかw 先述のように、旗が左側仕様だったので、日本の道路事情に合わせ、 買った旗は右側に取り付けることに成功!まあよし、かな。 イクメンの皆さん、子どもが喜び、健康増進グッズとしてこれはオススメw PS 米式バルブに不慣れだったので、なんとかペンチでバルブを押さえて 入れました。が、バン!という音と共にチューブが破裂しました。。。 入れすぎ注意ですね。。。

It’s great.
Better than expected. Come to the front door. Foldable, bike attachment easy to install, and great price. Ohther stores like Canadian tire or sport check had them way more expensive ( even the same brand). Better than and safer than the attachment that go on the seat like really it’s your kid. Also great way to put your kid to sleep every bike ride.

Muy padre!!

Works great!
Great quality. Didnt take much to put together. Works great for getring around town. Has pockets inside and a small area behind the seat for storage. The seat however isnt really a seat, its just fabric with seat belts. If you have one kid, they go in the middle seat and you use the seat belts from the other two seats to strap them in.
