Aluma trailer

Has anyone used an Aluma trailer? They have solid floors which may be a liability but I’m curious if they would work. They’re great quality.

my 2 cents worth:

a quick google search of the aluma utility trailer shows that the one you may be looking at is 54″ x 8 ft.  the length is right but the CLC teardrop is 60 inches wide, so won’t fit between the tires/fenders.  my local Aluma dealer’s website quotes the price as roughly $1800 which is mighty steep.

several of us here have bought and been happy with the Northern Tool “Ultra-Tow” 5×8 aluminum trailer, currently listed at $749 with free shipping.  I determined that the frame was just a bit too long (I didn’t want to be knocking my shins on the corners of the aluminum frame) but it was simple as pie to cut the frame members to length with a powered jig saw.

Thanks faithie999!  Your 2 cents are very valuable.  I’ll check out the Northern trailer.
