Anyone have experience with newer model Kiefer Trailers? Looking at a 2 horse slant, either all aluminum or the Steel Frame/Wood Floor and Aluminum skin/roof. Input/opinions appreciated!

We bought a 3 horse slant aluminum last year. haven't used it enough to have a real opinion but so far ok. Dealer did have to adjust the tabs on the stall dividers as they kept opening while traveling. I didn't do it myself because I know that some aluminum alloys don't bend but the dealer bent them and then reinforced with a weld.
I had to adjust the tack room strike plate as it was opening while traveling also.

I purchased a brand new kiefer Genesis 2-2horse slant. Seemed like a nice trailer. Hauled my horse 20 min drive- when we got to the destination, my horse got nervous and pulled trailer tie a couple jerks. The entire divider fell out- horse ran uninsured and lucky I walked away with only bruises. Appears the rivers are not attached to anything - pretty scary. I have contacted dealer but still no response. Question the kiefer trailers- wish I would have purchased another brand. Poor quality.

I have a 3 horse Kiefer - I have had real good luck with the trailer. They seem to be built good enough for me, have pulled it thousands of miles.
