Nice kayak trailer.
Fits four kayaks, travels nice, but is a pain to assemble. But worth the money.

Very nice trailer.
I really wanted to leave a 5 star review, but there were a couple of things that prevented me from being able to do so. The first was the broken lenses on one of the taillights and one of the running lights. A very minor one was that there was no hole in the license plate holder for the taillight wires, so I drilled a hole myself.There was no bolt hole on one side of the tongue arm for the long bolt that attachs it to the trailer frame. I had to drill the missing hole to install the bolt. The instructions state to install the tires with the stem to the outside. Unfortunately, one of my tires was assembled backwards with the stem on the inside. The spare tire that I included in the order was also assembled backwards.Other than all of the above, it's a great trailer and I will post pictures of the build, and my personal modifications to be able to haul my kayak.

Don’t waste your money!
The amount of time I have wasted trying to put this trailer together is ridiculous. The directions are absolute garbage which leads to a lot of head scratching and swearing. They are incredibly vague on where everything should go and which holes to use. To make matters worse, you can’t even try to use the pictures as a reference points because it is pretty clear they are using pictures of other trailers or older models. You can see in the pictures I’ve posted that the parts don’t match the picture. I am incredibly disappointed with this. Originally, I was going to modify a Harbor Freight trailer and save myself a couple of hundred bucks, but I decided to bite the bullet and buy the Malone trailer because it should have been headache free. Boy was I wrong. If I could return this piece of garbage, I would, but I missed the return window.

Missing parts bag!
Upon inspection of all items, I am missing BAG 11439.This is disappointing, I reached out to the seller and Malone and awaiting a response. Will update my review after resolution. I am hopeful that this will get resolved promptly, can't go kayaking without the trailer! And I've asked a friend to assist me with the build, now all postponed.Otherwise, item itself looks solid and instructions seem easy enough. I did find on YouTube an assembly video that will be helpful.Update: OutdoorPlay did a superb job in getting the missing parts bag. I reached out to them, professional and courteous and outstanding in their service! They reached out to Malone and I received the missing parts bag within 1 week! They have a loyal customer now! Thank you!

Went together in just over 3 hours.
Trailer came in 3 boxes, they were all managable.The instructions were easy to follow.I did start the build on a table, which was easier on the knees.It's a fairly light trailer, and easy to move.It doesnt have bunks, but I plan to make my own with pvc pipe.For now I just have kayak "rack", sitting on top of the trailer.

Very Nice Quality Trailer
I really like this trailer. It is not super easy to put together and I highly recommend following the YouTube video because no instructions are included. The design is also very good and can easily be adjusted for whatever you plan to tow.
