Trailer advice

I would like to (or need too) buy a trailer (possibly with a box and some extra storage space). Any experience with brands, etc appreciated or links.
I saw this one which looks ok for an open one but I notice they don't show anyone UN-loading or going to a side ramp (for two bikes).

I have a Kendon folding twin rail trailer. I'm very happy with it. It folds upright and out of the way in the garage when not in use.

Thanks, just watched thier video and answered my first Q which was can one bike go in the middle, but they say it doesn't matter if only one bike is on, I wonder though.

Nice design but no way are you getting 3 big bikes on it, that's obvious. The loading ramp leaves a little to be desired as well. Not enough room to put your feet down if something goes wrong while loading.
But if storage space for the trailer is a concern then it sure would fit the bill. And does look more beefy than the other fold ups I have seen.

Don't know about open trailers but if you want the best deal on enclosed trailers you can go on Ebay and buy them direct from the manufacturer and they'll configure them they way you want it. I bought a 7X16 from Hurricane trailers and picked it up at there drop off point in NY. Can't beat the prices and if you want to save even more money you can drive down and pick it up yourself. With what they charged for pick up in NY it wasn't worth the few $$ I'd save to drive down and back myself.
