I had a Cherokee for a couple years.... It was OK, but I don't think it would have held up to heavy daily use. It was a heavy, kind of a light built trailer... You still looking for an 8' tall trailer?

It may depend on the model. We have a Cherokee Super Chief LQ and are really happy with the quality. Only thing we would change would be door hinges. We prefer the type that hook top and bottom. Otherwise it seems well built, structurally sound and pulls good. We live on a rough dirt road and after over a year, no rattles so far. Their Dream Catcher LQ is very nice and good quality real wood and leather. A year ago I was in a wreck with huge tree across the road, we hit it, in an identical trailer and it held up with minimal, although it was totaled, damage and my horse was unhurt. Says alot for a full aluminum trailer.

My friend has a newer one 2006 or 2008 model (I forget exactly) and the slant stalls for the horses are smaller than other trailers which she didn't realize when she bought it. - I think she said they are 38" She says it's making her mare hard to load.
