Royal T vs Circle J horse trailers

[CHT]

Have any of you owned/used either the Royal T or Circle J angle haul trailers? We are considering a three horse all aluminum model trailer of either brand(both have wood floors). I just want something basic/low cost, and these seem to be the two that are sold around here in my price range.

The Circle J’s pros are that the roof is all aluminum, whereas the Royal T has a fiberglass nose cap.

The Royal T on the other hand has latches to hold the trailer doors open, while the Circle J just has the rubber stopper things.

I really want a trailer that is easy for me to load/unload by myself even on a windy day (an issue with our current trailer)

Any experience/thoughts on these two trailers?

I have a circle j aluminum over steel 2h GN. FWIW, I don’t mind the rubber stoppers, they do the job and you can pull the door shut easily once they’re loaded and it’ll give if someone smacks it from the other side.

Only had the rig 7 months, but thus far happy. Even if you buy brand new, have it serviced by reputable mechanic.
