Elite. My husband is a quality research fanatic and we went with Elite
(our 2nd
) and LOVE everything about it. Platinum was a close second, and we'd still consider owning one of those. We happened to pick up our Elite at the plant while they were doing some dealer training, so we got to see a couple of other brands there, and after seeing a $100k trailer that was sowbellied because they cut holes in them for slideouts AFTER they're built, instead of framing them up that way while building them...I'd never consider one again.

Had a Bloomer for years, it was one tough trailer. We downsized and now have a Platimun. Like it a lot as well.

They are all good trailers, I think most would agree. I'm partial to Platinums after rolling one at 60 mph when we hit a patch of black ice. It was a 4h with a LQ. It rolled twice completely. The pickup looked like a crushed beer can. All 4 horses emerged unhurt with the only trauma being wood shavings in their manes. You had to get close to even recognize the trailer had been in a rollover.
That tells me a lot about how they are built. That's why I'm biased.
This is one helluva of a testimony!

This makes me glad to have a Platinum!

We are on our 3rd Hart. Started with them 20 years ago due to us seeing a semi running into the back of a 3 horse Hart at 50 mph. Totaled the new Ford pickup as it pushed it into the back of another truck, but the trailer just needed minor work to get back to usable condition. Trailer ended up in the box of the pickup when the ball broke off...
