2019 Aliner Classic & Ranger 12 Folding Trailers - Walkthrough Tour

[@chass6166]

Guys I hear a lot of you complaining about her not mentioning price!!! there is a link to their website below and on this one she even lists specs on this unit. there u will find the prices! Geez!!! come on!!, , PJ does a fantastic job at demonstrating and informing the viewer of the units she is presenting. Great job as usual PJ!!!.

[@jimwortham8634]

If you are making a video give the price not rocket science

[@trueblue2124]

I' ve had a lot of folding trailers and caravans in UK over the years - by far this is the best I've ever seen - - love the design that looks easily maintained and very water tight - angled roof/overlapping lips etc - - nice clean secure fittings - strong shape - simple but clever stuff me thinks - -love it -

[@NoorElahi1776]

Aliner really needs to hire this lady. I would pay stupid money to take salesmanship classes from her. Great video!

[@curryhousechicken]

Noor Elahi ....ahhh. You are into cougars...to each his own.

[@Frank-ue6eg]

The great thing about this unit, as the lady explained, is the discrete slide-out that contains the full sized jacuzzi bathtub, separate shower, porcelain toilet and twin washbasins in addition to the side-by side washer/dryer combo. Having the full sized electric dishwasher in that kitchen is great as well. Nice presentation and it looks like Princess Craft provides a great value proposition here.

[@PrincessCraft]

Lol! You saw more features in the trailers than we did!

[@paulaball8725]

Wishful thinking!

[@robstek75]

A-frame campers are great. EASY to tow. Rides smooth with independent Torsion spring suspension. Fast set up in less than a minute. 6 gallon Hot water tank. Microwave. 3 way powered fridge. Heated full size bed. Furnace and heat pump with a.c. fiberglass hard sides and much more. I bought a 2013 rockwood A122 hard side a-frame and it never leaks and I live in the Pacific northwest!

Excellent review, I’m a solo woman camper and this review comparison was so helpful!

[@PrincessCraft]

Thanks Sandra! Glad we could help you!

[@G-ra-ha-m]

The problem with trailer tents is that you have a short trailer that can make parking and reversing a pain, and then unlike a caravan you have to mess about at the other end putting it up. Then like a tent when you fold it back up it will often be wet on the outside, have condensation on the inside and so when you get back home you have to put it back up again (if the weather allows) to air and dry it. I can imagine quite a few are opened at the start of a new season with the damp having had a great time eating the inside. Trailer tends appear to be the wonderful solution to a problem no one has.. They do make a great spectator sport, watching people struggle with them for hours, for that reason I'm all for them.

[@lakeseminole]

Excellent presentation of the trailer! You do a very good job.

[@bobbypaluga4346]

This pretty lady is a pro, she could sell me anything, I’d be helpless to resist. What a great voice for TV/Radio

[@FrancoisBert]

The interior colors have really improved. The interior is luminous. I find it a very attractive camper for people who want to spend less and still be confortable. But I still worry about water leakage in an Aliner since road bumps can bend the folding parts of the roof over time. Perhaps they fixed those problems with the profile extrusions.

[@larrynelson7106]

I had an A Liner. Got rid of it after one rain shower. The interior was soaked. The mattress was ruined. The walls were water stain. We had to cancel our planned camping trip. Not a good product.

Average cost of a new Rockwood a122 hard side a-frame camper is 14,000. dollars. Another brand to check out is the aliner A-frame camper.

[@lucus4485]

Much heavier trailer.You get what you pay for.

[@TheKmc32275]

Robert Steketee that’s what we have, and truthfully I think they are a lot nicer. Dark wood and all stainless steel. Plus who wants to haul the grill in and out? Ours came with a separate grill for the outside.

I want to build something like this in a basic version out of wood and metal for my self.

[@richardhamilton9956]

As a 75 year old former carpenter/finish carpenter, I don't think I would try to build one of these. Very complicated and you would end up with a gross weight 50% more than a factory built one. But if you are game, have at it!

[@HappyHands.]

I was concerned about struggling to put a aliner up,, but when i saw her do it so easily... i was like . maybe it isn't so bad

[@auroranite]

Ideal conditions indoors. No wind gusts, rain,mosquitoes and black flies..

[@TheRealVideoMurder]

Being over 6 feet tall I see myself being most comfortable standing directly in the centre of this camper

[@yomamadontknow]

🤣

[@mikefoehr235]

One bad design I noticed is the propane quick connect by tire...that will get quite dirty from mud and sand....Rockwood has theirs hidden away...smarter in my opinion.

[@nicholashein1238]

Nice presentation on both campers. On the Classic I would've liked to see the internal propane hookup. I also would've liked to see the cable hookup on the inside of the camper. On both trailers you didn't show where the propane hookup is located for the tanks. You also didn't mention if the campers are equipped with trailer breaks. You mentioned the freshwater hookups but didn't go into much detail on how the blackwater tank gets emptied.

[@mikefoehr235]

I dont think it has a black tank....just a gray tank or you need a portable tank at extra cost.

[@dennycrane2938]

Looks like a great trailer but it really needs a lock and rock hitch. Maybe the manufacturer can figure that out for the offroad package some day.

[@mikecirmo9738]

This is a beautiful camper. PJ - you are GREAT! You do an EXCELLENT job of showing all of the details to this camper! Beautiful presentation! THANK YOU!

Crazy idea, design two A liners to ve able to connect end to end. With a pop out in each end a dormer. With the center dormer's opening up and forming a door. The the dormer on the end with the tongue a toilet with a corner walk in shower. One hand pulled slide out for the kitchen stuff breakfast nook then door to other A liner. Behind door is the bedroom with a dormer with a toilet with fantastic fan. Modular A liner's. 😊👍

If a video's purpose is to inform then it should always be done without distracting back round music or sound effects. People come to these sites to learn and be informed, not to be distracted or having to put up with some lame jingle or thumping music. It simply isn't necessary.

[@beverlybalius9303]

PJ knows how to do a video, she don’t need you tellin her how. The music went off as soon as she stepped inside,,, and she always does the Inside first,, Her troops like that.. most of these other salesperson s on other videos don’t know how to do one,,,

[@zf7568]

Best trailers !

[@PondstompingAdventures]

I really wish Aliner would make the frames stiffer and more robust. They are not really that great. Going up in size on the main support beams and crossmembers would greatly improve ridgity of the unit, and prevent bending of the frame. Wouldn't add that much in weight. But would make a better product. Anyone who has owned one can tell you that the frames are weak, thus the gaps it develops on the door frame. Just my thoughts, on what they could improve on. Other than that, great units. If they fix that issue, I would buy one again, probably the 15 ranger. The 12 ranger felt small with 2 dogs and the wife. Lol

[@Febrile1]

Have the gaps at wall/ceiling been solved! Now mosguito proof?

[@PondstompingAdventures]

@@Febrile1 mine seems fine, it's a 2012. I did replace the cheap foam, with a higher density foam, thus keeping better shape. It was falling off, so just replaced it, as the original foam wasnt stuck on very well.

[@Febrile1]

Thank you. @@PondstompingAdventures

[@jimmyjames8037]

Frames were upgraded after ~2008

[@PondstompingAdventures]

@@jimmyjames8037 they should have done a better job. Still too weak in my mind. I have a 2012, and had to get it stiffened up as the frame was bowing and causing the door not to sit right in the closed position. That was straight from the dealership, it came like that. Main frame (length ways) should be 5" by 3", or 6"x3" minimum in my opinion. Would get rid of door issues and frame bowing.

[@stewartboyle4910]

Be great to see slimpotatohead test these.

[@paulkohler4508]

Nice Presentation. Could make sink & Refrigerator counter same height - some more space under. Too bad - show canopies on the Classic. Would like to see larger unit as well. Thank you.

[@afettinilgun4706]

i like it ... really comfortable set up...

[@lucus4485]

Was an issue on older Aliners but the newer ones they fixed the problems.

[@stevemoorrman2434]

Nice trailer. I didn't see anything on how you level the trailer at a campsite. The outriggers look fixed length. Uneven campsites generally require some sort of jack/adjustable leveling mechanism.

[@PrincessCraft]

These small and light campers are leveled side-to-side by driving the low-side tire onto a ramped leveling block/kit, and the they are leveled front-to-back using the trailer's tongue jack. After that, they are stabilized using the stabilizing jacks that are at the corners of the frame.

[@solidstate9451]

I love it!

[@mrspeeddemon727]

My parents have an A-Liner, they are crap. Too small, restricted head room on either end due to the roof angle, feels like you’re in a coffin because of being in a confined space, lack of windows that can open and their small size prevent good air flow so it easily gets hot inside, you’ll always have to have the vent fan running or the AC on. It’s a unique style of camper being an A frame, but don’t let the novelty of that fool you, it’s not a good camper.

[@johnrichards3666]

Here's a suggestion. Rip out the dinette and put in a dormer instead that allows enough space for a shower / toilet combo. Keep the sofa / bed and build in some airplane style tray tables for eating. Why can't anyone in the industry figure this out? Make a comfortable trailer for the solo camper with a cozy twin bed instead of a queen size monstrosity and free up even more room. Make it feel like an Airstream 16ft Bambi on the inside and then you'll have something.

[@gphilipc2031]

My QVC fan sister will likely buy one.

[@cosmodave69]

The standard pop up design makes way more sense.

[@faithrada]

Depends on the usage. Some parks do not allow 'soft side" trailers. Safety issues with wildlife? Not sure.

[@charlieagalasso4212]

Really nice camper. If I am spending over 20 large, it’s gonna be for a pickup truck...

@@fendermanize Have you seen the price of slide in campers? (that fit in the bed of the pickup). It's crazy. For both a truck AND a slide in camper, you could buy a small home. That's why I am looking at these A-liners. They have been recommended by many - And I can tow it with my Subaru. I don't need any more money for a truck :)

I showered out of a bucket of river water :) I also spent a few weeks in it in winter(NY) and the heater kept it warm, didnt use the water due to freezing temps. I still have it but it has some water damage now from sitting for too long, definitely cant afford a new one.✌

[@thebaddog4104]

Spend one weekend in it and you'll be lucky to get 7k for it in a re-sale. My friend bought a brand new third wheel and paid a premium price and after one season it was a pile. Stuff was falling off or letting loose everywhere. You're better off building your own with quality materials for half the price. I'm surprised they didn't throw a cheap 42 inch tv on one of the roof flaps and put another 3g's on the price.

[@joecasey8219]
