Aluma Inc. Trailer
We bought a 7 X 14 all aluminum trailer a couple of weeks ago for our bikes. We are using it to store them and enjoy the convience of the drop rear door. The trailer is beautiful but the roof leaks and is a total mess. Very poor workmanship!
I wish I had taken a ladder with me to the dealer and looked at the roof. There are no straight panels on the roof at all and there are actually places that will collect water in pools. The factory says that they will allow the local dealer to fix it and that he would do the fix on another trailer that he has in stock. NO THANKS! He cut a 2X4 about 3 inches longer than the distance from the floor to the roof and drove it in to push the roof bow up. The skin is stretched at the bow location higher than the bow so the pool is actually larger.
Do Not Buy An Enclosed Trailer From Aluma! The warranty was presented to us AFTER (conveniently) the purchase and it states that any repairs due to manufacturing defects must be performed at the factory and the shipping of the trailer to the factory is the owners responsibility. The factory is in Bancroft, Iowa - we are in Virginia. In other words; we have no warranty.

Yea buddy, brand new. $8500.00 worth of trailer. (from the roof down)
I need MY *** kicked for buying this damned thing. The damned thing is beautiful though, so I got taken it like a sucker on a line.
There's an old saying: too soon old, too late smart. Hi, my name is Bill....
