Bike Trailers

For those that are not members of VHEMT :ihih: and have procreated little carbon emission generators I wanted to see if anyone had any recommendations or thoughts on bike trailers.

I plan on using the bike trailer for my one year old on paved paths and rail trails. I have done some research and it seems like you can either go with a mass produced generic trailer like a Bell,Yakima, or Schwinn trailer ($200ish) or go to a higher end trailer like a Chariot or Burley ($500ish). Is there a significant difference between them and I am risking my little guy's livelihood by going cheaper??

sheesh...Shopping for bike trailers is way more stressful and less fun than shopping for a bike for yourself!! :ihih:

Any input would be appreciated.
