I presume you mean one of the upright ones rather than a recumbent? No experience of them but given the more reasonable prices I would also be interested in opinions.

 

[roadrash]

had a recumbent (tadpole ) trike and loved it , not tried an upright though

Hammerheads tend to be homebuilt, not shop bought. You'll have power to only the one wheel, normally that's the rear wheel.

Jorvik have one with cargo platform in front but the rest all appear to be delta type. I have seen pictures somewhere but cannot find any at the moment of tadpole type ones.
Not too happy about a single front wheel after having a scare on a delta recumbent and nearly turning over.

There are these sort, that can be converted to mid-drive.

There was an old guy around by us who had an etrike. Quite snazzy, dual led tail lights, panniers. I don't know if it was a conversion or production model-suspect the latter, with it being so tidily finished. Not seen him in a while, so either moved or died
