Short Version Short Version: Like many things about towing in the US, don't trust the maximum specification: the 5X is said to be good to #500 tongue weight, but it's not. The side-mount bracket is not strong enough for the torque, the back brackets that saddle the tongue bend, the lift tube flexes, the screw jack has too much friction, the tires are squashed. It's just not up to it, especially after a couple years of occasional use.

Trailer Valet—lives up to its name! Excellent product—At over 60 yrs age, I am able to move my camper-solo- and finesse the move with 90 degree turn on driveway, into garage with less than 5 inches total space to spare-effortlessly. Without this tool, my camper could not be parked in garage without 2 people, lots of angst and effort- and many prayers:). Company is very responsive and communicates well with customers.Very quick delivery—This was purchased over one year ago and still holding up perfectly ........and still impressing me with what it can do:)

STAY AWAY- DO NOT BUY STAY AWAY- DO NOT BUY The RVR12 does not have the same tread as the smaller machines and struggles to gain traction on finished concrete and wet unfinished concrete (driveways.) As you will read in other reviews, they are very quick to accept a return for their poor quality machine. However, they charge you shipping return shipping as well as initial shipping. Additionally, I was delivered a faulty remote and they told me it would be $900 for a new one. It all seems a little scammy. I filed fraud on my CC and have returned the machine. I paid for return shipping but amex refunded the entire purchase price. BEWARE!!

Needed a replacement tube in Australia Needed a replacement tube in Australia, you have to buy the tyre and tube together, $180 plus freight. This is not ethical as there is no alternative to the special Trailer Valet tube

Easy 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.
