The perfect solution. My boat would have never made it into my garage without the 5X.

Hi Marshal! Thank you for your review. I'm happy to hear the 5X is working out for you.
Awesome tool
I purchased the Trailer Valet XL to move a 17 foot travel trailer which has a dry weight of 3000 lbs. The Trailer Valet XL gives me the ability to move the trailer into a very small storage area in my backyard which is a level concrete surface. I use my truck to get the trailer just inside the RV gates, then the rest of the 80 foot distance is completed with the Trailer Valet XL while making a 90 degree turn. There would not be any other way to complete this task without the use of the Trailer Valet XL. Once I became familiar with the attachment of the Trailer Valet XL to the trailer, it made this a very easy task. This is a awesome tool which is very well made.

Hey Joe, glad you love it! So happy we were able to help!
I really like it a lot.
I really like it a lot. The only thing that still isn’t perfect for me is it struggles to go up an angled driveway. I don’t have enough tongue weight to get proper traction so the tires will just spin and slip when it gets too steep. The maneuverability on a relatively flat surface is extremely handy.

Hey Bruce! Thank you for your review. If you are having issues with inclines. Please check out our incline video. You can find it on our website or youtube.com/trailervalet.
Great product
Works as advertised. Great tool to get boat in and out of garage with tight tolerances. Valet will not push or pull well on loose gravel. Be careful on inclines as winch May start to wind forcibly until you release lever to engage brake.
Should be made in USA

Thank you for your review. Glad to hear the unit is working out for you. Should you ever come across loose gravel, please try laying plywood underneath the tires.

We use this to transport portable lifts around job sites to do siding on existing homes. It does not leave a footprint like a vehicle would.

My Trailer Valet is a great help…
My Trailer Valet is a great help especially in the tight confines of my driveway. I've got to remember, after removing the crank, to put it where it will not get lost. It would be nice to be able to stand up straight when using my Trailer Valet.

Good to hear this Greg! We are pleased that you are having so much success with our unit.
Trailer Valet don't like bass boats especially with tandem wheel trailers
The company is accommodating however the "ease" of use for the device is extremely overstated. Advise to those with bass boats and looking to purchase, The device is NOT the answer to your dreams., It is simply an answer. It is difficult to crank from a bent over posture. The drill method is not as easy as the website shows so you end up hand crank and that ain't easy folks. Especially bent over, cranking while holding the break handle in the up-extended position. My new boat has tandem wheels on the trailer and the Trailer Valet don't like that one bit. So to wrap this up-it works but not even close to the ease of use the company professes, at least it doesn't for me and two different bass boats and trailer styles (2 wheel and tandem)

The trailer valet performed as…
The trailer valet performed as advertised, but it had trouble moving my small (21ft) travel trailer on my slightly sloping driveway.
Also the handle/brake lever needs a solid detent/locking feature when fully extended. On more than one occasion, while I was using a power drill to move/crank the trailer valet (move the trailer), the brake engaged and the drill spun and I thought I might have broken my wrist. Fairly painful.
Other than that it was fine....

Hi Raymond,
Thanks so much for the feedback. We're always doing our best to improve our products, and will take these notes back to the team. We recommend using the drill only on the low gear and ramping up power very slowly so as to avoid any spinout. Let us know if we can help in any way, our support team is always here in case you have any questions!
