Why We Like The Burley Flatbed Utility Cargo Bike Trailer
When we have the option, we prefer to take our bike instead of hopping in the truck, and the Burley Flatbed Utility Cargo Bike Trailer lets us expand our commuting capabilities. When we have a large grocery pick-up or lots of gear to transport, the topless design and 100-pound capacity allow us to carry more than the average bike trailer.

Great for any biker. Use
Great for any biker. Use the flatbed for solar panels and a portable power station to give my bikes unlimited range and to transport cargo.

Loving my flatbed so far
I'm loving the flatbed so far. I need to write burly and ask how I am susposed to true their wheels. I can't get them on my stand. I am concerned that the fabric base will give out at some point but it seems resilient so far. I also wish I had gotten 2 cargo nets instead of one so I could have one on each side. Otherwise I am impressed. It's super light, smooth, and easy to ride with. It allows me plenty of mobility and stores up quickly and easily.

Love It!
Love it! Use my flatbed to haul inflatable boats to and from the city lakes (for demos) and for hauling items / gear between home and the shop. Have taken it on a few grocery runs / errands and plan to use it on a tour or two before the summer is over. Well built, easy to assemble, easy to stow. Would not mind some intentional lash points, but there is a cargo net available. Have used a rack pack and a RUX 70L on a couple of different outings and it's a pretty versatile platform. Handles nicely on mixed surfaces and around the various twists and turns - at speed. I prefer this option to a cargo bike as I can expand and contract as needed. I have the fat tires for less desirable conditions and intend to rely on this product year round - which is a challenge in Minneapolis. Regardless, very pleased with the flatbed. If only they sold direct to dealers. I don't do business with QBP, but would likely sell more than a few.

Just what I needed
I bought the Flatbed trailer for my dog. This is not an Burley-approved use for it, but I know my dog would hate being cooped up inside an enclosed trailer. She is very well behaved, so an open air trailer like the Flatbed will enable her to hop on and off as she chooses. She loves the dog bed I bought with it. I keep that in the house, and it has become her favorite place to sit while at home. She hasn’t yet become comfortable with being in the trailer, but that will come with time. I once bought a Radio Flyer Red Wagon for a dog that had recently undergone knee surgery. She was very wary at first, but riding in it soon became her favorite thing in the world. Fit and finish are excellent. It rolls very smoothly behind my bike. Most importantly, it will enable my dog and me to take long adventures together that would otherwise be impossible.

Food Rescue
I had been "borrowing" a Burley cargo trailer for well over a year. So I bought it because the other Burley trailers have worked well. It is providing cargo transport as expected. I use it for transporting banana boxes and bins full of food, often over the rated weigh, with no problem. And I use it for grocery shopping. One note. The rubber covering on the wheel releases has fallen off on other trailers purchased a few months ago. Mine are intact for now, but after only a few trips and one car "bump." The loss of the rubber covering does not seem to have any impact on functionality of the trailers.

So far so great!
I found the setup to be quick and easy, the quick-release wheels to work very well, and the mount onto my bike very well designed. It's pretty simple to get the trailer on and off my bike. I've taken about 6 trips with 75lbs of cargo and the handling is great. I'm on a paved bike trail mostly and some city and couldn't be happier so far with my purchase. Handling is pretty easy and the trailer feels durable. Mostly I'm stoked how easily I can detach the trailer and how simple the setup is. One note: I don't have a kick stand and it can be a little tricky finding balance while attaching our detaching the trailer. I might get a kick stand :D

I haven't even used it
I haven't even used it yet. Easy to put together, so it's a 4 star review. Probably should be a five I'm sure it'll pull as good as the burley bee.

Excellent product and correspondence. Great
Excellent product and correspondence. Great features with easy set up and take down. Would like a locking mechanism as option in future, also if side braces were removable, that could be a nice feature. The ease of wheel removal is outstanding.
