        Comments about Burley Bee Bike Trailer:

        It is lightweight but solidly built. We got this model because it was one of the least expensive of the Burley brand, and it folds down easily. To put it in the back of our car, I remove the wheels (easy push button), remove the tow bar (push button and safety pin), and fold the riding compartment down. If I was doing long trips or commuting with toddler in tow, I would probably opt for a more deluxe model as I could see some of the itmes in the storage area sliding under the seat. I won't be riding in the mud, so I can't speak as to whether the rain cover keeps tire-slung mud out. The bottom borders are attached with velcro on front and back which makes for a nice taut compartment. It rides smooth, and my toddler loves riding in the back.

        Interestingly, the locking pin separated from the safety strap within the first two weeks. This was not a safety issue, but it would make it more likely to lose the pin when not engaged on a bike. A phone call to Burley and a replacement strap arrived within a few days.

          PURCHASED THIS AS A GIFT FOR OUR DAUGHTER AND GRANDSON; ORDERED ONLINE AND HAD DELIVERED TO STORE. THE STORE HAD THE TRAILER ASSEMBLED AND READY TO GO WHEN WE ARRIVED TO PICK IT UP. THEY SHOWED US HOW EASILY THE TRAILER BREAKS DOWN FOR TRANSPORT IN A VEHICLE. THE FOOTPRINT IS NO LARGER THAN A REGUAL STROLLER. I WAS PRETTY IMPRESSED.

          VERY STURDY CONSTRUCTION, LIGHT WEIGHT, AND THE WINDOWS ON THE SIDE WILL ENABLE OUR GRANDSON TO EXPLORE THE PASSING WORLD, AS MOM PEDALS ON, BUT WILL KEEP HIS HANDS AND FINGERS OUT OF WHEEL DANGER. THIS TRAILER IS BUILT TO CARRY ONE OR TWO TODDLERS.

            I love this trailer, it is easy to hook up and pulls easily. My only worry is that my son (who is almost two), pushes his feet out of the bottom of the Velcro cover-I don't want his feet to ever touch the back tire.

            Comments about Burley Bee Bike Trailer:

            The Burley Bee Bike Trailer is a well thought out design. It has ample storage. A fair amount of room for 2 kids to ride side by side, but could get too snug as the kids get bigger. Its very lightweight but seems very sturdy all around.

            I returned a Weehoo iGo Pro Trailer Bike and picked up the Burley Bee. We had a second kid, and to be honest my first son wasn't really enjoying the Wehoo, along with some other safety concerns that I had.

            Very easy to bike with this trailer, and has little impact on your riding.

            Overall very satisfied with the trailer. I actually came back to the San Diego REI and thanked the bike mechanic who had put it together in the store for me (unfortunately i forget his name).

            I like the Burley. This is a basic bike trailer. They all can be expensive. We wanted something to tow around the neighborhood, etc. No suspension, light trails max. My only gripe is the lack of back support. A little cushion would be nice. The kids don't complain though. If your kids are bigger than toddlers forget about fitting two of them in this thing! Nice bright color for safety. All in all I have been happy with the purchase.

                The new Burley hitch is quick and easy to use. The Bee is super light, packs down small and easy. It has a major design flaw, however. The rain fly does not attach firmly at the bottom, it is an open flap that faces down toward the road. The splash from my back tire shoots right up that flap and into the cargo area, right onto my child's face. This happens with a wet road as well as with dry dirt and gravel; it all ends up on the kid. Major Fail. Returning the trailer to REI tonight. I've ridden in all elements with it now: rain, snow, dry roads (with gravel on the shoulders) and mountain bike trails. Every time I end up trying to cover my little girls head and face from the grime.

                  My almost two year old son wakes up every morning and asks "Bike? Bike?" We usually use it in our neighborhood to ride to the playground. It is very quick to attach to your bike, but he wants to be in it even before we can get it hooked up.

                    I tried this with my 10 m/o and found that he needs to grow a little bit more for the helmet to fit properly while sitting in the seat. Other than that, he enjoys the ride and everyone around is very impressed by the trailer. I often get compliments or people stopping to let us go by so they can get a better look.

                        I needed just a basic bike trailer since I already have a jogging stroller. I didn't want any of the attachments, etc. This works GREAT and the price was right. I also like that you have the option of carrying one or two children in it.
