Burley is one of the best.

I saw one Trek trailer at a bike show that was as good as the Burley,
but I haven't seen it for sale.

Whatever you choose be sure:

a) Aluminum frame, not steel

b) wheels supported on both sides (cheaper trailers have the wheels
   mounted on axles that stick out from the frame, but they are not
   supported on both sides).

I'd stick with Burley. You can sell it for a good price when you're
done so the total cost of ownership is no more than it is for buying
a junky trailer.

I'd avoid Cannondale and Winchester trailers.
