Ratings & Reviews for DK2 4.5-ft x 7.5-ft Steel Utility Trailer ( 1639-lb Capacity )

Would not buy again

Came a month late and parts missing or not assembled correctly. Directions are vague and incomplete. Vendor customer service very poor.

5x7 Trailer

It arrived a month later than they told me it would and while trying to follow up the only answer I could get was it is in processing. When it finally arrived at the local delivery company it sat there for over a week. I could not reach anyone there as well, called the parent company and they seemed aware that this terminal was terrible. So the trailer finally arrives, putting it together and determine the axle is bad. The company is sending another axle, when I asked if they were arranging ...

Do not buy!

Looks good online, but is delivered with the hubs not mounted to the axle. Bad sign. I've packed bearings on vehicles for over 40 years, but I'd like to use the vehicle for a while before I need to. My first thought was: very poor quality control. Even the factory doesn't want to try to assemble this. It's terrible. There was a large piece of slag on one of the spindles. One of the grease fittings broke off - the first time it was used. The dust caps, or grease caps don't appear to fit. At th...

Decent value

A decent trailer for most household jobs and landscaping. It would be nice if it came with rope hooks for when using a tarp. I also purchased a can of truck bedliner paint to protect the bed since I will be using it to haul some gravel.

Good Trailer, Bad Assembly Instructions

Overall it's a good trailer. As mentioned in other reviews, the assembly instructions are poor. One of hubs got hot when I took the trailer for its first ride. The issue was corrected by seating the bearings. I also seated the bearings in the other hub just to make sure the trailer is good to go. It would be helpful to know what type of grease is used at the factory so I could add a compatible grease.

Trailer Assembly

Completely unassembled and comes with NO instructions but there are several Utube videos available so was able to assemble the trailer with that help. I had no helper so took me about 4 hours but with someone helping not only would it have been much quicker but also much easier.

so far so good, the build was easy, but incomplete

I have not used the product yet but I wanted to review build part. The product seems well built. I am surprised with the guage of the metal, it is a lot heavier that I initially thought, which is good. The hinge joints are a little weak, but will work for light duty. I really had some issues with the directions. it did not mention what tools you need. You can do it with a couple of large crescent wrenchs, but you may want large metric sockets....

Great trailer

Great trailer, assembly instructions could be better. The trailer parts are good quality, but the instructions could do with some additional detail. The assembly took me most of an afternoon, but would have been about two hours quicker if the instructions were more detailed.

Yeah, Get One!

This is a light utility trailer, comes as a kit but I put it together in about an hour and a half, Bearings were pre-lubed and the directions are easy enough to follow. My only wish would be I'd like the deck to be heavier gauge . If your on the fence about this trailer jump off and get it, I expect this one to last for years and didn't find the price excessive for what you get.

Paint issue

Underneath welded areas not painted , First rain after purchase show all not painted or not good quality pain areas , started rust , my frustration not discreditable. Paint at all in bad quality. I put two pieces of siding from Lowes and after unloading, noticed scratches. Siding not heavy . So frustrating a lot . Not advise any one to buy it .

Awesome Trailer, Very Happy!

Very easy to put together, rugged, dump is great, the fold down front/back are awesome for those longer boards. Backing up with an empty load was a piece of cake, very stable. I got a cover and jack and well, think this is the best trailer I have ever used.

Flaws but still good for the price

Overall good quality sturdy constuction. Good welds throuhout. Good hardware and axle. Wheels and tires good. Had some minor issues with connectors for lights. Not the best quality control. One had pushed nlad pin, had to push from bac side to seat it in opposite connector. Another had the wire come out due to poor crimp. Was able to correct both issues. Pin was ez to remove to re-crimp wire and put back in connector shell. Was easy to assemble but illustrations in instructions lacked ...

Trailer review

The trailer appears to be above average in material, if one compares it to others available at other box stores. It is certainly much better value than those. It is smallish, but I think can fairly easily be made "longer" by making the front fold down a permanent platform and sides. The instructions are vague as one would expect. The sides can only go one way if the ends are to fit as designed. No hint of that in the directions. The bolts/nuts are not clearly labeled. It is a two person ...

Easy Assembly

ARrives in a BIG heavy box. Delivery dropped ot off the truck and many pieces were scratched so I’m sure it will rust quickly. Otherwise good value. I paid just about $900 for jt.

Nice trailer for small jobs

I have a small golf cart that was difficult to get into the back of the truck even with ramps. Trailer seems to be perfect to drive my cart up into it. The paint was nice so I had to add non-skid strips to the bed so the cart wheels could get traction. Also used to to pick up about 850 lbs of 12' material I needed for a job, layed down the front and back gates and strapped the materials down with a come along. Assembly was not to difficult, instructions could be a little better but the hardware ...
