To the OP, another slide consideration ...
Probably most who buy a trailer with a slide (or slides) will also ante up the extra cost for a slide topper, one for each slide, so if you too choose to go this route you'll want to factor in this extra cost. In my particular case I have a shallow sofa slide and chose to
not ante up for a topper but it does mean carrying a 3-step ladder so I can reach the top of the slide and clear it of debris before retracting it.
Obviously if the trailer has no slide(s) then this entire issue is moot and is yet another reason some prefer the simplicity of a non-slide trailer. :)
