70 reviews forAumüller Bicycle Basket

Very good, I'm completely satisfied.

The basket is a nice size and can be used not only on the bike. Simply unscrew the frame and set it up as a sleeping and snuggle basket in the house. It's great for use with puppies when you don't want them running around the entire flat.

We use the bike basket for our 7.5kg pug. The basket is really lovely and very sturdy, and with the included mounting system, it can be attached to almost any city bike (it doesn’t work on mountain bikes). The dog can even sit upright under the protective grid.

We are still in the acclimatisation phase, so we haven’t gone for a ride yet. Both of them like to lie inside, even together. And even when both are inside, there’s still plenty of space to spread out ample insulating padding throughout the basket in winter if needed. (see customer photos) I’ll be adding a cat net to the grille, as the gaps between the bars are partially “cat-passable.” The workmanship seems very high-quality and sturdy so far.

The basket has been in use for 8 years now, currently being used by our second dog. Cycling with it is no problem. A clear recommendation from me.

At first, I placed the basket in the living room to give the dog (12.5 kg) the chance to inspect it on her own. My dog immediately lay down in it. I did, however, put a softer cushion inside. While cycling, she sat calmly in the back and seemed comfortable and secure. Assembly was a bit fiddly, but now it’s rock-solid. Delivery was quick as promised. We’re thrilled...

I definitely can't understand the negative reviews. We were searching for a bike basket for a long time for our lazy-to-walk Mini American Shepherd!!! She weighs around 12kg, and finding a bike basket for her proved to be extremely difficult. Well, this basket holds our 12kg lady perfectly, it doesn't wobble, and the attachment is very sturdy too. She can lie down comfortably and has a great view since the bars of the cover are spaced far apart. You don't notice the weight on the bike because the mount isn't attached directly to the handlebars. A great solution for us!

Since I’ve read some of the less favourable reviews here, I thought I’d share my experience too. We’ve had the basket for 8 years now. Our dachshund weighs 7.5 kg. When mounting it onto a new bike, a new bracket was necessary due to the different diameter of the head tube. This wasn’t an issue with the Aumüller basket. Thanks to the attachment to the frame (not the handlebars), riding is absolutely safe. I can only recommend it. And as for rain or sun protection or a nice cushion, surely everyone can come up with their own ideas. So, 5 stars!

I have a very lively little 6kg terrier who wants to chase every squirrel and cat from the bike and behaves like a wild thing. This basket really offers the perfect way to transport my pet. Thanks to the sturdy mounting on the head tube rather than the handlebars, I feel completely secure even in heavy traffic on my e-bike. In rain and cold, the dog can be perfectly protected with blankets and protective covers. I’m absolutely satisfied with this purchase.

Bought this basket two years ago for my Jack Russell puppy. Assuming my puppy would be bigger when she reached adulthood I bought a bigger basket as I was concerned about weight limits. Well, my puppy grew up to be one of the smallest JRTs ever and she runs alongside the bike now but I still think the basket is one of the best around. Yes, it is a bit bulky and it does take some getting used to (a few seconds?) but I managed alright with a full basket at the front and my daughter on a tag-along bike at the back--you get a few smiles as you go along. As my dog is so small, I often carry my rucksack, toys and coats as well. If installed correctly the bracket keeps the basket locked in position and has a very solid feel about it. It's very easy to take out the basket and put it back on. I also use a normal mesh basket when I don't need the doggy basket and the Aumuller bracket doesn't interfere at all. The cage is also very handy (especially if your puppy considers it her duty to chase every cat she comes accross). Two years on I'm still using the basket occasionally when having to deal with heavy traffic. Poppy runs alongside the bike until we get to the more dangerous area, where I undo the cage straps, tell Poppy to climb up my leg (handy trick) and transfer her to her basket without any need to get off the bike; as soon as it's safe she's back on the ground again. For this reason, the straps have endured heavvier use than you'd expect in a basket that is not used that often and they're still in very good condition--worth noting as they looked a bit flimsy to me. All in all, very good quality but bear in mind you will have a BIG basket in front of you when cycling.

I've been using this basket on my second bike now for about 10 years, and two years ago I also got one for the luggage rack for my second dog. I'm just super satisfied, never had any issues with straps or anything else. With proper installation, there are no problems. It's Pekingese dogs that sit in there.

I ordered this bike basket for my Toller puppy. At first, I accidentally ordered the "large" size – the basket is absolutely huge, so I had to exchange it for the "small" size, which is much smaller in comparison. BUT the small size fits perfectly for our puppy, and I think it will still be suitable next summer. The attachment to the bike is fantastic because the basket isn’t hung on the handlebars but screwed onto the bike frame. This makes riding very comfortable, and we don’t have any stability issues when "loading and unloading."

The basket is brilliant – we had it at home within two days, and assembling it was a piece of cake. Our Jack Russell, Snoopy, loves feeling the wind in his ears, and we’re thrilled to have found a basket with handlebar mounting that isn’t too expensive. We had to search for quite a while to find the most affordable basket.

We received the large bike basket with protective grid yesterday and tried it out straight away in the evening – we were immediately very satisfied. The basket is very spacious, sturdy – simply brilliant. We can even reuse the existing bike mounts from our child seat.

Easy assembly. Fits perfectly on the handlebar frame. The dog feels absolutely comfortable in it. The holder doesn’t loosen either, as long as it’s mounted correctly. Great value for money.

Hello, we've had the basket for a good 3 years now. Our Jack Russell female weighs 4.5kg, and she absolutely loves this basket. She has plenty of space in it and can see everything clearly. The basket hangs on the front of the handlebars. It's definitely worth the money ;-))).

We received the basket with the protective grid two days ago, and I can only say it's fantastic – very good quality and extremely sturdy. Today, we took our first trip with our 7 kg mixed-breed dog. After placing two small cushions and a cosy blanket inside, our little one made herself comfortable. I really don’t understand why people complain about the thin blanket; the description didn’t mention a cushion or blanket being included. We can only recommend the basket. Simply brilliant!!!!!!!

We've already done our first bike tours with our new bike basket, and everything worked perfectly. For my husband's mountain bike, we bought the additional mounting option for the seat post, so I can hand over our little rascal on steep sections :-) I had to air out the protective cover for two days, but then it was fine, and it's really only meant for short showers anyway. When it's sunny, we use a thin cloth instead. I hope we'll go on many more tours with our old rascal. Mareike

Plenty of space for Bertie, our large JRT and he took to it like a duck to water. Plently of smiles from the visitors to our Hastings sea-front in East Sussex and a hound who couldn't keep up with the range of high speed sniffs! Recommended to all plus a trip to the Dog's Biscuits in Norman Road, St Leonards.

We cycle quite a lot. Finally, my Schnuffel (Beagle lady - approx. 13 kg) has her own spot when we plan a slightly longer tour. A super great basket that we’re constantly being asked about, by the way! The only feedback for the manufacturer would be a request to develop an even sturdier design to make it easier and better to attach the basket to the luggage rack. We’ll get in touch with our locksmith to fix this one "flaw"... However: I imagine 20 kg would be quite tricky... My dog stays relatively calm lying down, otherwise, I’d probably end up in the ditch.
