GBDon't Go In The Water I used Trailer Valet on a 16 ft. boat. I guess the manufacturer did not anticipate that customers would use their product with boats, because the "Valet" rusted up pretty fast. Then I had a problem and needed to purchase replacement tubes for the tires on the "Valet". For the price charged I expected to receive solid gold tubes, but was astonished to learn that rubber tubes could demand such a price.

GBEasy enough to install Easy enough to install. Works well. But be careful to lift the brake handle all the way up before moving trailer. and keep it up during use. Otherwise there is extreme counter rotation on the drill and can cause wrist injury. Otherwise, great product and would recommend.

GBThis trailer valet has a major design… This trailer valet has a major design flaw, it does not stay in the upright position under stress. The wheel will start moving out from under the ball coupling pretty soon after 1 or 2 feet of movement the trailer valet will be at 45 degree angle. I do not recommend this product. To anyone. I gave followed the directions and watched multiple videos thing I may do doing something wrong.
Disappointed Buyer
GBFail The TrailerValet XL doesn't work with my 9,000lb trailer. The trailer was empty and it not only could not move it, but damaged the trailer metal tow receptacle. The TrailerValet may work with light trailers, but do not use it for a heavier trailer. Now I need to find some way to sell my TrailerValey XL. I regret this purchase.

GBTrailer Valet don't like bass boats especially with tandem wheel trailers The company is accommodating however the "ease" of use for the device is extremely overstated. Advise to those with bass boats and looking to purchase, The device is NOT the answer to your dreams., It is simply an answer. It is difficult to crank from a bent over posture. The drill method is not as easy as the website shows so you end up hand crank and that ain't easy folks. Especially bent over, cranking while holding the break handle in the up-extended position. My new boat has tandem wheels on the trailer and the Trailer Valet don't like that one bit. So to wrap this up-it works but not even close to the ease of use the company professes, at least it doesn't for me and two different bass boats and trailer styles (2 wheel and tandem)
