The RVR3 I have barely moves and has about a 15 minute run time before the battery dies. All this I could have dealt with but trying to get the 18' boat & trailer (weight of maybe 2500 pounds) over a... See more

This trailer valet has a major design flaw, it does not stay in the upright position under stress. The wheel will start moving out from under the ball coupling pretty soon after 1 or 2 feet of movemen... See more

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 eno... See more

You have to bend over too far to use it,. Makes it difficult especially if you have to hand crank. That being said I still recommend it

Hello Aaron! Thank you for your review. Sorry to hear that the unit is too low for you to bend down and operate. I will carry this information to our engineers and do what we can to improve this for our customers. Thank you once again and have a great day!

Outstanding piece of equipment that…

5X is Outstanding piece of equipment that easily moved our 31 ft Airstream 50 ft up a 4% grade. Granted the airstream is empty but probably weighs 2500 lbs. Used the low gear with hand cranking but will use the high gear next time. Precision steering within an inch as needed. Did not have to do any major turns. It wasn’t clear to me on the website but there is pin you release when ready to move that lets the wheels pivot and then steer easily with the handle. Brake is activated by the handle gear locking mechanism. Very secure does not feel like trailer will run away at all. Highly recommend and I never usually write reviews. Will be getting an additional clamp to keep on boat trailer and use the 5X with that also.

Hi Steve! Thanks so much for your review and thanks for the feedback. We'll do our best to improve our communication on the website. The additional bracket will be super handy and using the 5X for both will be a quick and easy swap. Please let us know if you encounter any issues - we're happy to help!

Complete SCAMMERS

Complete SCAMMERS! Look out! Stay away from these guys! I purchased a thousand dollar trailer valet on trailervalet.ca . The unit was completely useless. Now that I am requesting a refund I found out that the .ca site is run by a slimy litte company in Montreal called xtreme Vision imports. The email contact Ray Degani won't even reply to my emails. Now that I have a problem with the unit. These guys get your money and then completely ignore you when there is a problem. The people at trailervalet.com are no better than this guy. They simply told me that it's not their problem and I need to deal with Ray Degani from trailervalet.ca. now I am left with a thousand dollar useless paper weight. Trailer valet is a complete scam! Save your money . Spend a little more and get a parkit360. I hope this review can help someone avoid these horrible people.

Hello there,

Thanks for your feedback. All of our products are rated on a flat, even surface. We can't guarantee it will work on all surfaces, but we've definitely seen customers achieve this when all factors are aligned (i.e., enough tongue weight on the unit). Feel free to reach out to our support team anytime - they can get a good gauge of your particular situation and help troubleshoot. Thanks again!

ok If you know how to make it better

It worked great for 6 months to a year then the cheap bushings wore out. luckily I work at a machine shop so I made some stainless bushings worked great smooth as butter. After a short while it started wearing the outer housing. So once again thankfully I have access to a Machine so I made some stainless plates and bolted them on the outside with the bushings. Now everything is like brand new only I have made your product 20x better so I guess now I have a modified trailer valet 20x. maybe try incorporating some of my design in yours and it will be worth having. If I hadn’t had a machine shop and the knowledge of how things work it wouldn’t have lasted a year.

It is a very good device.

It is a very good device to maneuver my boat to where I want it to go. Other than having to bend over while cranking it while moving it around it is fantastic. Definitely recommend for the elder sportsman who can't move there boat around like they used to.

So far so good.

Very quick delivery via FedEx. Easy install. The Traler Valet 5X seems very sturdy The tongue of my RPOD is a little tight since it also has a battery, propane tank, and anti sway hitch attachments, so there is not enough room to rotate the Trailer Valet to stow, but that is OK since it is easily removable. Tested it a little. Easy to hand crank on concrete with slight slope. Got the Valet on mud and it sank and the wheels lost traction, but that was expected. So far so good.

great product and company.

i installed the valet and tried it out. WOW I couldn't believe how easy it is to move the trailer without hitching the truck to it. I am very happy with the purchase and the way your staff handled my order in this time of crisis. I will spread the word around about your company. thank you again.
