works great

Just one part to screw into our beach cruiser, wheels snap on, it's great. Only used a few times so we can't speak to the durability, but we're not offroading and think we'll be fine.
A great little trailer

I purchased the trailer for my baby grandson. It was simple to attach and my little baby loved it. I would recommend this product. It is small enough to fit in a garage without much space needed. I am glad I found it, it was a great purchase.
These people who knock this are crazy!

I bought this a few months ago and have used it everyday since. I pull my son (2 years old, 28 lbs.) everyday on about a 5 mile ride. He loves it, I love it, and my wife loves it. You can hardly tell you are even pulling it. Its so easy my wife doesn't mind towing it. We don't use the front windshield type part, so I don't know if that is where people are having problems, but from what I have read on the reviews (and I read them all) it sounds as if these people do not take very good care of the thing. It is easy to put together (my wife did it before I got home in about 5 minutes). Just air up the tires and go. It is definitely worth the money. If I paid $300-$400 I might expect more, but come on people, this thing is a great value and great family fun instead of sitting your kid in front of the TV baby sitter.
P.S.- If you and your significant other both plan on using it, I would suggest buying another coupler/adapter for the other persons bike. It makes changing it out from bike to bike so much easier and can be done in about 10 seconds. I think I paid about $8 for one on amazon. I just put it on my wifes bikes so then the trailer can be hooked on either one without removing the adaptor from the other bike.
ok for a cheapie, but poor quality materials and no floorboard!

Considering we paid $88 for this, it's alright. EASY to put together. Cheap materials. I don't like the strap layout. I do like that it is smaller than other models, so it takes up less room in the garage. I do not like that it has no support under the seating area. There is nothing between the child and the road except for nylon fabric. Somewhat like sitting in an umbrella stroller. I thought surely there would be some sort of panel that laid in the bottom to shield the child should you hit a bump or pothole unexpectedly. I would not purchase again had I known about this. I would find one that had a bottom to it.
horrible for two children

I'm totally unsatisfied with this product. My main problems with it are:
1-the seat belts-they are super hard to fasten. You may think that that is a plus for safety reasons, e.g. your child won't be able to unfasten the belts himself, but you won't enjoy struggling with them day after day.Also the belts are uncomfortable for the children and when properly fastened very uncomfortable.
2-the lack of a sturdy bottom and sides- This is the major problem of this carrier- because of its lack of a sturdy bottom and sides my children sag into each other in the middle and can actually push the thin fabric sides of the carrier directly onto the tires! I have to routinely yell at them not to do that! Also I imagine that if you have younger children or are on a longer bike ride and your child discovers that he can do this your trailer could be wrecked in one single ride! Bring duct tape along!
In short the carrier serves it's purpose for me, but who knows for how long it will hold out. I wish I had spent my money on a quality used trailer. I cannot sell this one with a clear conscience to my neighbors and I am amazed at the good reviews the product has recieved.
