2019 Airstream Nest 16U | Luxury Travel Trailer - RV Review: Camping World

[@BMags1]

I think that was the most complete and comprehensive RV/Trailer review I've ever watched. Excellent work, thank you.

[@campingworld]

Thank you very much! I appreciate you watching and thanks for the kudos! -Ian Baker

[@viankarby7599]

Love that layout back entry 👍

[@azclaimjumper]

Airstream has LAID AN EGG AS took a good fiberglass idea & not only priced themselves out of the market, they're making all competitors look good in comparison. Pre-Airstream Nests were priced @$30,000; Airstream Nests are 50% @ $45,000+

[@brichall]

If I was going to buy a camp trailer the Nest would top the list. It has great styling, quality, utility and value. Like everything else, you get what you pay for. This trailer is a winner. When you buy cheap, you get cheap. Quality always costs less. I would like to see twin propane bottles.

[@Softouch333]

good tip regarding black water tank being filled 3/4 before draining to prevent sediment.

[@campingworld]

Charles, thanks for watching and for the kudos! -Ian Baker

[@brians1025]

Very, very well done walk-thru/review video, my friend. Quality job!

[@campingworld]

Hey Brian, thanks for watching and for the kudos!! -Ian Baker

[@j.n3985]

Is there a way to lock battery and propane box area? Also storage areas too?

[@campingworld]

Hey J.N., Ian Baker here. The storage areas will lock, however a manufacturer cannot design a locking propane compartment in the US as it's against code. To my understanding, there needs to be access to the propane compartment in the event of a fire. Hope that helps! -Ian Baker

[@j.n3985]

@Camping World Then batteries should be inside the trailer as so much theft and owners can't afford to replace all that is taken.

[@Supernumerary]

Ian- Thank you for the concise and entirely excellent review.

[@campingworld]

Thank YOU for watching and for the kind words! -Ian Baker

[@richardgivens2422]

I just purchased a Forest River 20-ft. The weight is about the same, but the price is only one-third, plus it has a full bathroom with tub/shower. Knowing Airstream, the Nest will probably last for 50 years, but I won't. :D

[@lucky1206]

I seen this at the L.A. Auto Show and it's pretty cool. I plan to buy an Airstream but not this one mainly because it is 3,200 dry weight and my 2018 Mitsubishi Outlander GT can only tow up to 3,400 pounds. I seen another Airstream that weighed around 2,800 wet so I will go with that. I hope I can buy this next year after I buy a house...they are pretty cool and made with very great quality

[@meinasalon]

Excellent, excellent job on this video. It does not get any better than this on a trailer review.

[@markryder4943]

How would this handle as a full-time living travel trailer, Colorado winters?

[@alpinegeordie]

The spare tyre is just like the rest which is great ........ peace of mind eh :-)

[@chadelliott7629]

This was a great idea when it was a sub-30k camper. Not so much at $45k, I'd just buy the sport instead if I had that money.

[@MrTruth111]

45K?? wow, I'll pass too...

[@MiddlePath33]

Chad Elliott Right? You could buy land and erect a tiny home for that!

[@harryhernandez7066]

For 50k you could get the Nissan Recon campervan

[@whatfreedom7]

Wooooo that’s really really expensive for a little camper.

[@jeffwessel496]

Damn! Nice trailer and surely well constructed. But that price..... Airstreams are worth another 30% over the competition, but double no way.

[@marktuyet]

reminds me of my old Sprite Alpine Caravan only mine cost me 3000.00 used .very nice .

[@jxn0010]

Well this thing starts out at 45,000 crazy I would go buy one tomorrow between 25 and 30k

[@CombatDoc54]

I saw a Cintas uniform truck parked out front.

[@VMR8648]

can we order a custom made version of this beautiful trailer WITHOUT a microwave and certain features? Or would we have to just rip the microwave out ourselves?

[@stonearches2883]

The non propane refrigerator killed it for me. I camp remotely and rely on the refrigerator. Otherwise this is a great camper.

[@lucky1206]

I think everyone relies on a refrigerator😂😂 but it is pretty nice. Everyone on the comments talk about the price, but given that this can last for decades and built great I think the price can be covered after a while. I'm personally not getting this one mainly because of the weight. My 2018 Mitsubishi Outlander GT can tow up to 3,400 pounds so I will look into another Airstream under that weight limit

[@debra-vs]

I’m assuming the dinette makes into a bed.

[@campingworld]

Debra, that is correct. Good question and thanks for watching! -Ian Baker

[@peggyprose]

Did he ever show the bed??

[@yogiyoda]

Nice trailer, but priced too high.

[@toravnerflyr6911]

It isn't a referred to as a "rear entry" for nothing.

[@dianabirchall5223]

Beautiful

[@amonamaria2000]

I love it I do not like the curtains it makes it look cheap inside.

[@campingworld]

They can always be swapped out!

[@amonamaria2000]

@@campingworld that's nice to know there's an option.

[@tonyareddinger6227]

I was wondering what bathroom looks like in the nest

[@campingworld]

Well hopefully this video helped you get a good view of it, thanks for watching! -Ian Baker

[@BuoyMan]

I like it alot. I’d fall in love if it was priced between /$30 - $36,000. What’s that you say? “The novice 28 to 38 young’ ins can do the $45,000 + finance thing”. Even though I have the cash... it won’t happen. I know, I’ll wait and keep my eyes open for the financed repos. Yah, that’s the ticket !

[@livingthelife6284]

The Nest has a lot going for it, except the price. On top of the high price you would need to upgrade to the better batteries. Why is the air conditioning unit so large for a small RV. It should be 8 to 10,000 btu's. Where could I install a 3000 inverter generator? I think with all the upgrades I would need, this Nest would jump to a price that would push me into another category of high end RV's.

[@utahredrock1]

Fantastic review as always. I prefer my CampLite over the Nest--a MUCH better value. The Nest is nice, but not at that price.

[@gloriataylor2459]

Camplite

[@casheverett1754]

you prolly dont give a damn but does anybody know of a trick to get back into an instagram account..? I stupidly lost my login password. I appreciate any tricks you can offer me

[@quintonarmani4032]

@Cash Everett instablaster :)

[@casheverett1754]

@Quinton Armani Thanks for your reply. I found the site thru google and I'm in the hacking process now. Takes quite some time so I will reply here later with my results.

[@casheverett1754]

@Quinton Armani it did the trick and I finally got access to my account again. I am so happy:D Thank you so much, you really help me out :D

[@ottobauch2179]

Is a dry bath available in a nest?

[@campingworld]

Otto, not at this time. Currently the only floorplan changes on the Nest are the dinette (16U) or the fixed front bed (16FB). Hope that helps and thanks for watching! -Ian Baker

[@ottobauch2179]

Camping World yes thank you very much did some research on it as well and that’s what I found out. Maybe if they make a 19 ft it will have a dry bath. Thanks again!

[@kathygilbraith2280]

opinions on the Armadillo anyone?

[@sirsidfosse1313]

Now for some solar panels and some shooting ports.

Damn flies. Can I get a kindness?

[@patrickeh696]

For that amount I would buy a MUCH larger and MUCH better constructed Oliver trailer.

[@salbers]

The demonstration was good, but it failed to show the critical interior conversion from day to sleeping mode, always a hassle in small trailers. Airstream should be commended for migrating to the future of composite construction which offers finish, liveability, serviceability and strength unattainable in their obsolete aluminum units. But the design suffers from external tanks which preclude 4 season operation, limited ground clearance that makes unimproved roads off-limits, stinky, dangerous open flame propane cookery instead of state of the art induction, no security system and power provisioning that is not up to servicing the installed amenities. All-in-all, a good start at the future that needs refining.

[@chardy8067]

what would you recommend?

[@EM-ou4ut]

I yes it is a nice trailer should have a rack on the top so in case you want to put bike or boat something also should have clearance of the tires in case you want to go further the Terrain or Mountain. And I assume the price is too high.

[@fdmackey3666]

Well hell....Nice trailer....Just priced way outside our price range.

[@curtisdbird]

Is there a door on the bathroom?

[@campingworld]

Yes there is, sorry I didn't show it very well. -Ian Baker

[@Hawaiianbless]

Hi Mate ... Is there a sink in the bathroom ?

[@tombremer514]

Sorry... Where's the Link ????

[@ltyr2002]

Put a two person dinette table to the side and a full bed to the other side. A couple could eat dinner and go to bed without effing around with the table. How many "families" will really want this? But it could be great for couples.

[@robertmartin4535]

How much the airstrem

[@bargainboondocker3420]

The cedar in the closet is a natural insect repellant.

[@charlievandoren9816]

Neat, but I like the Lilsnoozy fiberglass campers floorplan, and room better.

[@daenas]

I just read they went bankrupt...sad because I liked them too!

[@susanfoster6733]

This is so very awesome! Alas, so is the price...

[@markoberer1158]

Mr. Baker gave an amazing tour of this Air Stream Nest. I'm toataly sold on this unit now. Now how much... because its still a Air Stream and we know how pricey thay can be : / Regardless... I love this new Airstream nest.

[@campingworld]

Thanks Mark, I really appreciate it! While it's not cheap, you know you're getting quality with Airstream! Click on the link for nearest availability and price! cmpngwrld.com/2NabQpt -Ian Baker

[@joeo7257]

The 20 pound propane tank is too small and not "easily exchangeable". I've never seen a 20 pound tank for exchange. They are all 40 pound tanks. The 30 gallon mixed black and grey tank will be full the second day of use. For 45K I would expect solar and lithium batteries. If I lay sideways on the rubber mattress with a pillow, will my feet push against the wall? It seems to be a luxury price for spartan features.

[@henryrosa8366]

I see no link for pricing and availability

[@campingworld]

Henry, I apologize, this particular model has actually sold and therefore is not on the website. Please call Airstream of Virginia at [phone] for price and availability. I believe MSRP is right around $45k just to give you a general ballpark idea. Thanks for watching! -Ian Baker

[@oldglory1893]

22K not a nickle more.

[@faithsrvtrip8768]

No corian countertop? You have to squat to use the microwave? No built in TV and digital antenna? Simple slide in / out pantry would have been much nicer than the little cutouts. Hate the fabric covered roof panel. That will stink after absorbing odors.

[@tikitribe5715]

Yup. That was my first thought. Your roof is going to absorb everything you cook.

[@Adam_Newman]

Price ? Thanks

[@campingworld]

Adam, Please call Airstream of Virginia at [phone] for price and availability. I believe MSRP is right around $45k just to give you a general ballpark idea. Thanks for watching! -Ian Baker

[@dogmakarma]

Folks, I think Airstream failed to understand their market.

[@AdrianoBatti]

I think it can float on water!

[@jobe8764]

I love it, a minamilst dream home. Airstreams last forever which justifies the cost.

[@LasVegar]

Why is it so expansive

[@2pink1stink]

I don't know anyone who does or has ever owned an airstream because of the ridiculous price tag. even having traveled over 1,000,000 miles from main to Florida to San Jose to Seattle I rarely see these. I don't understand how they stay in buisness.

[@lindaterrell6104]

I’m detecting a trace of New England in his accent.

[@WilliamCase]

I can't stand reviews / demos that don't demo everything. Also, once again, when Airstream deviates from their bread and butter they completely crap the bed. Not sure where they came up with the price point on this new concept model. I'm very interested in how many of these move in the next 12 months.

[@daroldzimmerman9841]

Nice camper but at 45k I’d rather get a fifth wheel or a 40’ pull behind.

[@davejuergens294]

I was going to say produce it for less than $20k ....most people can't afford that cash outlay for a mini trailer

[@sternwulfvondrakenwhyk4100]

Tiny microwave, itty bitty freezer 45K$?

[@camerxn_0947]

Count how many times this guy said 'again'

[@stlflyguy]

Pricey. No receiver hitch to put a bike rack.

[@ghilly_one1720]

Meh. Airstream Trying hard to capitalize on their belief that their name can command 45k for this. I agree with previous poster; Camplite is the better choice for this class/category.

[@Chunda8]

If the 45K figure is true you must be joking- not going to compete against the Alto for 10K less. Fail.

[@janinelargent9220]

Pretty but niche market

[@btedd]

Now they make a fiberglass model and charge more? This model is doomed, maybe at 20-25K it might sell. Too much competition in that price range to be successful.

[@RIPPER334]

Bwahahahahhaha. I'd be embarrassed to tell someone how much these cost if I were actually selling them... Because it can't be justified.

[@JoelWelter]

Seriously. A 29 minute video about a small trailer? I don't want this kind of detail. I will read the manuals or look at the freaking thing in person.

[@tikitribe5715]

Stainless steel anything is cr*p!!? It shows every. Single. Water mark. And fingerprint. I will be so glad when this trend *finally* dies. That sink would be the first thing I’d rip out & replace.

[@heavensgate4852]

Sorry but I wanted this commercial to move along this just drug out for each little thing I became frustrated watching, then a I started to slide the bar to speed it up then i simply gave up watching. I dont have an hour to watch one video speed it up!!!

[@redwhiteblue7831]

Way over priced, very heavy dry for a single axle trailer.

[@pgbtwoofive3354]

wet bathrooms are gross.

[@braydenmeshvlogs5219]

first

[@cah88]

You should divorce your wife immediately for thinking a camping fire stinks.

[@campingworld]

While I certainly see where you're coming from...I think this is one of those situations where the good outweigh the bad 😄

[@cah88]

Camping World lol Great response! Merry Christmas friends!

[@Jason-gk8jl]

You didn't have to say a word with all that hand talking.

[@josiem1681]

Yuck 🤢 ugly trailer

[@LifeFirstPlan]

Too much money and Too much chatter from this guy

[@rvsteve583]

blah,blah,blah. blahblah, blah blah blah blah. ect. same song and dance. they all do it.
