Which Cargo Trailer Brands Should We Avoid?

I like that idea! Perhaps we can compile a list of all the brands to avoid. My experience with Carry-On Trailers was just as bad—handled my warranty claim poorly. What is with these companies?

I’ve had a terrible experience with XYZ Trailers. Constant issues with the axles! I recommend looking into brands like Haulmark or V nose. They seem much more reliable based on my research.

I agree! Haulmark has been solid for me as well. They have great customer support which really helps when you hit a snag.

While I haven’t personally owned a Haulmark, I’ve heard folks rave about their durability. But are there other brands worth considering? What about Continental Cargo?

I had a Continental Cargo, and it was a mixed bag. Good build, but I faced quality control issues. I wonder if they have improved their standards over time.

Another brand to avoid is ABC Trailers. I’ve heard too many horror stories about their after-sale service! I’d consider looking into Look Trailers; they seem to be gaining a good reputation.

I agree! Look Trailers have been on my radar for a while now. They look well-built and have solid customer feedback, unlike some others mentioned here.

I’ve personally loved my stealth trailers; they’ve held up well through all my travels. I’m curious about the pricing compared to others. Anyone know?

That’s a great question, Eric! Stealth does have a bit of a premium price, but many say the quality makes it worth it. However, it’s all about what you’re looking for in a trailer.

No doubt! But you know, some of the cheaper brands are almost like playing Russian roulette. You might get lucky or hit a dud!

Or like buying a mystery box—surprise! Just pray it’s not a pile of junk. :smile: Honestly, though, maintaining your trailer properly can often prevent many issues.
