Works great to move around my little canned ham trailer from the 1950's. My trailer is about 15 long overall, including the tongue. It weighs about 1,800 lbs.The dolly came double-boxed and assembled easily. The parts are all very high quality. The box had a USA address, so possibly the dolly is USA made?? The photo on Amazon when I purchased was not accurate, as it did not show the third wheel (the smaller caster). The description and reviews did mention the third wheel. The box says the wheels are: two 16 inch wheels and one 10 inch, and although I did not measure them, that sounds correct.I expected the dolly would work fine on pavement, but was especially glad to find that I was able to move the trailer around fairly easily on the dirt in my back yard. The dolly's wheels are large enough to roll easily and not sink in. The dirt was dry and firm, but was far from hard-pack.The third wheel, the caster wheel, is a godsend. After using the dolly today, I would not recommend buying a dolly without the three wheels. The third wheel let's you balance the trailer on three wheels where it is stable. Otherwise, you have to put down the trailer every time you let go of the dolly. With the 3rd wheel, on level ground, you can let go of the dolly to check the position of your trailer when it is balanced on the three wheels. Do make sure to have wheel chocks handy to park the trailer, especially, if you are on uneven, or sloped ground. Have an assistance ready to set the wheel chocks, so you don't have to let go of an unstable trailer (without chocked wheels, the trailer can roll away, if you let go and the ground is sloped or uneven).My only issue is the dolly sets the ball a little high, even on the lowest setting. My trailer needs a tongue height of about 15 inches, when level, and this dolly adjusts the ball from 21 inches to 33 inches according to the label on the box (i posted a photo of the box). That's pretty high for a small trailer. As a matter of fact, when you adjust the ball to the lowest setting the bottom of the square steel tube for the ball is so low it drags on the ground - so the lowest setting is not really attainable. I'm cutting off a couple of inches from the bottom of that tube.
