My favorite is the Armadillo. They are one of the few companies that state in detail how their campers are constructed and how they are usable in frigid weather. And the offer and furnace. Having the ability to use the camper in all four seasons is a big factor for me in my decision making process.

[@aking032962]

Boat/Camper I remember these!😊! I was born in 1962 and it's so good to see this idea coming back, so practical!!

[@lindabuck2777]

Man I’m just a window woman, I gotta see out, and it helps remove that ‘coffin’ feeling, but I also need them to open and be screened. So that last one that marvelously open teardrop rules! Thank you for posting quality yet less expensive options and listening to us viewers! I agree with the announcer/moderator(?) the all wood camper rocks and it is sad they dispersed. Love wood as well and it takes finesse to work with! BLESSINGS OF LOVE

[@tinaking1033]

I like how you all show the inside all the campers... Thank you ..

[@marcosoconner664]

I love a shorter list with more time on each model. I trust your walk through and opinion when deciding which one is best for me then I do the company that builds or sells them. I also like that your videos are under 15 minutes so I can watch on a break and not have to set aside a specific block of time in my day which is much harder to do. Thank you.

[@mindseyedesign]

That's nice to hear thank you!

[@PhoebeFayRuthLouise]

Yeah, Reacher makes me laugh every time!

[@fairday2]

This reminds me of all of those years of sleeping in ground tents with some of the pegs missing, and having to dig a latrine. This is much more comfortable. And yes, much easier to hide from animals. I bet snakes could not sneak in and curl up with you to get warm.

[@Lippdinos]

It's hard not to fall in love with the wooden trailers, it's hard to believe they would be built but now I feel I have to have one! (someday) all of them are great, I loved the armadillo which is just adorable too! Thanks for bringing this video with the more accessible rv trailers. Now that I see there are some that can be easily afforded, I feel the urge to buy more than one as soon as I can find a place to put them safely. I'd like to know more about rv collectors if you ever feel the urge to make a video about them it would be great! Please remember to place the values to all the campers though. Thanks again!

[@jondecarbonel8158]

Out of our family, our beach had a truck and camper, everybody else had trailers and RVs. BUT.... many times we could go where they couldn't. That said, I've seen some really stellar layouts lately. On a few we've looked at, they've built the frames with double weight distribution at the tow ball, they can follow your jeep anywhere. One of which called OPUS built in New Zealand. The frame is sturdy as all get out, and it self inflates using air in less than 2 minutes. Beautiful layout, lots of space, AND A POTTY! Also a pull out kitchen, grill, fridge, sink, all can be accessed while camper is folded up. We saw it out at CURTIS CAMPERS in Oregon. Great little unit. 😎🖒🇺🇸

[@danielmcmindes5112]

two adults, four kids, a station wagon, a big tent and a boat on top of the station wagon is how i spent my youth. big sail boat. i still miss it.

[@mindseyedesign]

Hello Daniel McMindes, thank you for watching!

[@karlp8484]

Number 9 is clever. Trailer below to store...anything and everything...and tent on a platform above. People don't weigh very much and with all the gear stored down low Cof G isn't going to be a problem. Double the space on the same footprint.

[@PhoebeFayRuthLouise]

It’s very cool to see the variety of affordable trailers that are available! What a terrific video! Thank you, Reacher!

[@terrybittenbender6667]

Love seeing all these options for a small camper! Keeping my options open! Thank you!

[@lethaharris2758]

Won’t find these anywhere

[@gnrymr]

Born in 1957, so I remember the boat top camper, and started camping in the Scouts!!! Then my Parents had a Cox Pop Up Camper, and then, another pop up with more room, and eventually a 19 foot Travel Trailer with everything to go camping without having to go to a Campground like a generator, but not off-road, or completely away from civilization!!!!!! Of course I want carry on that tradition, but I’ma skip the pop up, and go straight to the enclosed camper with the bathroom, and the ability to camp year round even here in Fargo, North Dakota!!! So I know that’s a pretty tall order I know, but I don’t want to havta drive a Mac-truck to tow it!!!!!!! All I have now is Nissan Rouge, and it’s only front wheel drive, so I know I’ll have get something a little bigger, but what’s the Smallest Vehicle You would use to tow a Fully Self Contained Trailer, and what’s the Smallest Trailer You think is good for extended Trips??? I served 20 years in the Navy, so I’ve done Lotsa Traveling in Small Spaces, but now I want to do it in Style Economically!!!! Not with the Big Ol’ Dodge Gas Guzzling Van like My Parent’s, but a Medium Size SUV, or less if that’s possible??? So am I Crazy, can it be done, or is this Ol’ Sea Dog All Wet?!?!? 8~}}}

[@luciac.419]

"... While hiding up in the tent" 🤣🤣🤣🤣 #8 was my favorite!

[@gerrywood5325]

In my younger years, MANY MOONS AGO, my family went camping using a trailer that didn't have a kitchenette, or shower, or even a toilet. We did our cooking outside on a Coleman two-eye stove. When I started camping with my wife, we had a 10 X 12 tent. Now that I am older, I want a camper that is comfortable without the mess of a stove or toilet. I prefer to cook on a portable grill, and I have a 4-eye propane stove that can be placed on a pick-nick table. Solar power is a must since I have to use a CPAP machine every night, plus we like to watch TV as we eat so electric hook-up is also necessary when we go to established National or State Parks. I am also looking for a camping trailer I can pull with a three wheeled motorcycle.

[@lagbait3076]

I've actually paid attention to some of the ones listed, that last one caught me by surprise. Like a little tent mansion. An since Reacher said to comment below about how he likes shiny objects, challenge accepted. Seriously, I can get you a string of RGB led's if you want. Think of that cluttered office you can't seem to find space in, now think of it in brightly lit multi-color. Infinitely better, right? Since I seem to be a well spring of unwanted help, mayhaps a video on space saving ideas to help your office woes.

[@michaelfarmer9901]

I was liking 6 n 5 but when you got to 3 and then two it reminded me how much I love cabins so those are my favorites! Thanks for sharing!

[@anitapage668]

#14 : a small family delight! #15 Before you & your Sweetheart decide to "take it to the next level" I suggest a few days of camping in this! #4 & #5 Some American cities could use a few of these to house folks away from City Streets! #2 Casual Turtle Terrappin: Absolutely amazing product: I suggest they revisit their Purpose; re-organize their Mission Statement( perhaps advertise like crazy for stockholders/ potential customer orders and give this product a Come-back! *Reacher, I agree w/you! It's always nice when you can take your entire kitchen w/you camping out!

[@ChannelZeroOne]

Guess options under $5,000 is not gonna happen. Maybe I should start building trailers since the mark up is so insane. I could buy a new cargo trailer. Then spend about 2k in materials to build it to my liking and be way more capable.

[@LottieHunt1001]

Look at www.weeroll.com probably a great option for you. Unfortunately my hands and body don’t allow me to be that creative and build my own set-up inside for myself and daughter, but if they did.....

[@beverlylange4514]

11 is all around winner in my book! It has everything you need and no frills you don't! a real campers camper!!!

[@ericrogers6274]

Now I know that I can convert another 1994 Dodge Caravan. Toss the seats, I can even haul my CR 250 Strapped down were the seats once were. Thanks for motivating me again.

[@cathleenbaldwinmaggi2252]

Thank you! Great to hear your voice again Reacher!

[@kengabrielson6880]

Number three was the neatest it took you back in time but cargo trailer roof top tent was the most practical

[@tardeliesmagic]

I 'VE FOUND THE RIGHT ONE NOW.After a lot of looking & learning i've found the PERFECT caravan.It'll fit (just) in my garage.I can get a 2010 FREEDOM JETSTREAM ~ FIRST CLASS LIGHT WEIGHT 2 BERTH for £8,000 ish.The FREEDOM JETSTREAM TWIN is v.similar too for interior spec.Size,height,length and width,weight is the same but unsure if it has a heater for warmth/hot water.Both are 650kgs so max payload 750kg so my little car will easily pull it.I'll be getting a portable 100W foldable solar charging panel,3x decent long thermal curtains which i'll double up and put behind the normal curtains to keep heat in on all the windows (except the kitchen window of course,cut out some carpets for underneath the seats/storage space to keep some more warmth in the caravan and may get some carpet for the rest of the caravan throughout to keep it snug through the British winter.I also have a battery jump pack with a 3 pin house hold UK plug and can use a normal battery charger to charge up the lessure battery if i ever need it (incase) I wanna be prepared for off the grid when and if i need it.I'm new to camping by the way lol

[@beverlylange4514]

13 IS A GOOD SIZE AND HAS EVERYTHING YOU REALLY NEED. JUST DOESNT HAVE A LOT OF PERKS. I AM FOR BEING OUT SIDE WHEN I CAMP SO THIS IS ALL YOU REALLY GOT TO HAVE!!

[@MrOffshore]

#12, the inTech Luna...loving the construction, quality and features!! Beautiful trailer!!

[@mindseyedesign]

I couldn't agree more. I'm saving up and when I can finally afford one the inTech Luna will be the one I buy! www.intechrv.com 😍👍

[@fairday2]

I think that someday we will need one, but with the small bathroom. Nice and small without looking like we are moving a house.

[@Robb403]

That modular plastic camper / cabin design has all sorts of possibilities. While it would be great for camping, it has lots of potential for temporary housing after natural disasters and even as shelter for the homeless. The greatest virtue, as I see it, is that the panels can be disassembled sanitized and stored between uses instead of taking up a lot of space and being left to decompose in the sun and weather. Since it can be moved in pieces, it would easy to palletize and transport anywhere it is needed without having to keep a camper licensed all of the time.

[@milesgentry850]

THESE ARE GREAT INNOVATIONS! LOVE BULLET COLT! BUT ALL ARE PRETTY COOL!❤CLIPPER IS ALSO NICE..HOW MUCH THO?HAUL WITH JEEP?

If you ever do another one of these lists, Scamp campers should make the list. Light weight, Durable and all 3 trailer sizes are still under 20K. We have the 16' layout #4

[@7891ph]

I know you're probably going to get a bunch of static from the folks who don't see their favorite unit on this list. Hopefully I'm not one of them. I think this list is a good start, and there's enough interesting designs out there for you folks to do a whole family of list's. One area that I've been looking at for a while are the rigid sides type pop up/ fold out compact trailer market. As anyone who've camped out in a tent in cold wet weather can attest, being up off the ground in something with real wall's and windows can be a marvelous thing, and it can greatly expand the camping season in more northern parts of the country. Many of the mfr's I've looked at seem to have models that at least start in the price range you've listed. Just food for thought. Cheers!!

[@mindseyedesign]

Thank you, that's very appreciated. I'll add that to my notes. 👍

[@BC-pf5ne]

Would really like to talk to the guys in design. Just a slightly bigger model of #1 would be a fantastic size.

[@DeterminedDIYer]

Lol I know campers are expensive but hearing, under 20k is cheap cracks me up still.

[@JOB1925pk]

I know right...when I clicked on it I thought they were gonna be talking campers under $2500....20k is ridiculous and a complete waste of money...buy a vintage camper for $500-1000 and refurb for another $1000 and boom. When I heard him say under 20k I didn't even watch the video.

[@largol33t1]

Um, there are a lot of Australian campers in this size that cost the equivalent of over $35,000 US! Crazy. And no, none of them have an internal kitchen or even a toilet!

My question is, if these campers are 20,000$.... why don’t you just make your own? I mean, buy the base trailer part and build up! Especially if you have welding and woodworking experience. Don’t waste your money if you don’t have to.

[@lindasue8719]

It's heart- crushing to do research on KZbin and the prices are in u.s. dollars, but the same things are available in Canada at twice the amount or more... That's even more than Exchange. I guess it includes duties or something... Anyting affordable is old or a tent. At the moment I'm opting for the latter.

[@marysueper5352]

Number 11 was my choice. The bathroom sold me.

Why do these 'adventure' campers have a straight axle that just begs to catching rocks and other hazards? Seems like a torsion rod suspension would be much more suitable for off road activity.

[@badbiker666]

Just a comment on the description of trailer number 8 on your list. You describe this as having a "wet bath." It does not. A wet bath is one where you shower and the toilet get wet because it is in the shower enclosure. The floor plane for trailer number 8 is a dry bath, meaning the toilet is OUTSIDE the shower enclosure (but inside the bathroom).

[@codeman99-dev]

The Quite Lite Tailfeather is a dream product and likely will never make it to market. In some states you may be violating the original registration of the trailer used.
