Is the company helping you with the warranty?[/quote]yes.  PJ trailer out of Edmonton sent me a new one in less than 3 days....  to bad it bent on its first use....  I have a bit of a lip coming of the parking pad.As the rear wheels came over the lip i heard a bang, the screwjack and tube bent and it blew the upper bushing.  I guess i am exceeding the limits of what this is designed for...

Has anybody heard anything about the Trailer Valet XL? I'm thinking about purchasing one. I don't think I have enough room on the tongue of my 13 QBB for the standard one. How are the ones you have holding up?

Nice product! The XL seems like its worth the extra $250. I like the drill attachment option for lowering and raising the trailer :)

Bought the XL, and it was so easy to get my 21BHS into my side yard. No way it was going to get there attached to my TV. I've got a slight incline going in, and I made sure to get past any small lips or driveway bumps before attaching and using.  I'm very impressed and amazed. Looks to be made solidly, so I expect it to last well with proper use.

Do you think the XL will work on grass? I have a flat back yard and will need to move my trailer over an unpaved area.

Doesn't look like it would be that easy to move a tandem axle trailer. I always wanted to buy a power trailer dolly, but, its a lot of money and I heard they don't work that well on grassy uneven terrain.

Yeah, I heard similar things, mostly that the wheels slip on steep grades and going over the lip of the garage apron can be a challenge. It would be nice if it worked on level grass but it's not sounding too good.

For $53, maybe I'll buy a dozen and sell them on E-bay.   8^)
