The suspension is very compliant and gives the trailer's load a pretty darn smooth ride. The suspension is relatively soft and each wheel moves independently of the other smoothing out bumps really well. By my standards they're a little expensive but very light and I've had no problems at all. Carrying two kayaks I don't feel it behind my Subaru WRX and didn't feel it behind a Honda del Sol. It's much easier to load than the roof of my wife's Tahoe. The only real shortcoming (if it is one) is that, legally, you are supposed to drive a little slower. If you're interested in a couple of pictures of it behind the del Sol with my Cobra Expedition on it, drop me an e-mail and I'll put the pics on my website (below.)
