Its vibrant red color is quite attractive and eye-catching. Beside being attractive, it also is a safety measure as brighter colors can be seen further than drab ones.

Pros

  • Its modular design permits for extra seat as well as a cargo basket.
  • The weight limit is amazing. It easily allows two children to ride in safety. But remember that the heavier child should use the front seat.
  • The trailer weighs around 44 pounds that’s why in case you want to lift it, it is quite easy.

Cons

  • It doesn’t fold up that’s why if you want to take it for a vacation, it is not feasible. But you can take it in the back of a truck.
  • You should put children in or get them out with lots of care because there is no kickstand to keep it steady. It could be knocked over by an energetic or anxious child.
