If it were my company       rating

I took a chance on this one, here is the good. I like the heavy duty construction and the fact it can be disassembled quickly and easily via the quick release pins.

Here is the bad, the heavy duty construction makes this trailer / stroller 10 - 15lbs heavier than ALL of their competitors. OK for me, I want the extra work.

Here is the UGLY, if this were my company I would NOT allow a product such as this to leave the factory WITHOUT instructions let alone some kind of paperwork congratulating me on my purchase. Purchasing this product you're left on your own.

Also, if this were my company I would have some sort of quality control. After I figured out how this thing was to be put together my child and I were already DEAD IN THE DRIVEWAY. The left tire inner tube had a nice size hole in it. After taking the wheel apart I realized the reason for the flat was due to the rubber rim guard on the wheel protecting the tube from the spoke ends was NOT put together properly at the factory.

If you are considering purchasing this product I hope you have a better experience than I did.
Best bike trailer around!       rating

After a lot of research, I've very glad we bought this bike trailer. I've used a couple different kinds of trailers and this is by far the best. It has sturdy wheels...no plastic, clear windows for my daughter to see out of, a great storage space...and best of all it converts to a stroller really easily. I can't believe we got such a nice trailer/stroller for only $150. Models that have similar features and stability are closer to 300 to 500 dollars. It really is a must buy!
Perfect for us!       rating

I'm not an experienced biker, so I didn't want to spend a fortune on a bike trailer, but I didn't want to waste money on a low-end model either. This one works perfectly for us. I bike for exercise and wanted to be able to take my two boys (ages 4 and 2) with me. They love it! They're small enough that they don't need a ton of room - my 4 year old tells me that he's very comfortable :) The cargo space in the back is very nice, plus there are small pockets on the inside for the kids to hold a book or something. I think it's sturdy constuction and I feel that they'll be safe in it. I've only used it once as a stoller (I don't go running), but I thought it was just fine. It's pretty easy to switch from bike trailer to jogging stoller. I spent so much time researching trailers and I'm really glad we settled on this one - it's been great!

I recently purchased this bike trailer after researching several of the other mid-range 2-in-1 Double bike trailers. This one has all the features of the others and more, but does have a few short-comings.
PROS:
1. It's one of the roomier models for two children
2. It has a full front wheel attachment for Stroller/Jogger mode and has an included hand brake
3. It has two adjustable 5-point harnesses that work as intended
4. It has a nicely cushioned seat, and extra protection under the footbed to reduce tears
5. It has 20" outrigger style wheels that roll smoothly and easily
6. You can buy additonal couplers for multiple bikes
7. The protective covers attach securely with Velcro in multiple places and it has an ample rear storage area
8. The bike tow bar tucks neatly under the trailer when in Jogger mode
9. The Jogger bar can remain attached with wheel in storage area if preferred
10. It is priced lower than comparable brands/models
11. It is well-made, uses good hardware and materials and looks great

CONS:
1. In Jogger mode with two children inside it can tip backwards if not attended due to center of gravity being directly over axle and backrest angle
2. The coupler will not fit as intended on bikes with quick-release wheels. The coupler is designed to fit rear axles that are held on by screw nuts. (Note: I was able to mount it another way via disc brake mounting holes at left rear frame arm)
3. The seat is directly over the axle and although it is nicely padded it causes the passenger(s) to be leaned forward a bit
4. The backrest forces the passenger(s) head forward when wearing a helmet which may be uncomfortable on long rides
5. The flag that comes with it is wimpy and flimsy, but is an easy upgrade

All in all I gave it 4 out of 5 stars. Mainly for the fact that it won't attach to all bike frames easily and can tip in Jogger mode if unattended with passengers (which i don't recommend anyway). Compared to the competition (which also have similar drawbacks) the Aosom 2-in-1 Double Bike Trailer is well worth the price, and has some great features and excellent build quality.
