Colapz - The 20L Update from Shaun, They put they put things right and give an overview on the 20L

[@napoleonsolo67]

Just thought I'd add the perspective of a non-caravaner. I am both a camper and also campervan owner. I absolutely get that if you have a traditional caravan you'd stick with an aquaroll, and not try to solve a problem that doesn't need to be fixed. However, for my use cases, I am never going to use an aquaroll. So, this product pricked my interest and I've followed this tale through fingers from behind the sofa. I absolutely commend Colapz for taking on this challenge. There is a growing market for a solution that suits both campervaners and also fits with the rise in popularity of small/mini/micro caravans. It is a complicated puzzle to solve because water carriers are not sexy and therefore, there is only so much folks will pay for a product like this. Conversely, miniaturization and weight reduction challenges tend to present engineering complications that rarely cost less. The teething troubles are unfortunate and the comms debacle a self-inflicted nightmare. However, I hope Colapz saves the day, and yay to @CaravanEscapades101 for keeping them honest. Thank you and enjoy your family day at the show. I enjoyed it yesterday.

Hi Thanks for feeding back and commenting, I think you have hit the nail on the head, This is not a replacement for the Aqua role, but an alternative for different applications. Agreed it was a design challenge and maybe they took orders to early, The com's they could have done something about, As I say I do like the Colapz product.

Hm. Clearly their R&D is a bit lacking. I would have prototyped a few and given them out gratis to people like you. Also, I'm a little concerned about the UV stability of the silicon used in that linking tube. I would rather have a kink than hose degradation leading to brittleness and splitting. Not for me, I'm afraid.

[@CaravanEscapades101]

Hi Tommo agreed it would be god to have tested some prototypes and the original concept was for a 45L version but transporting that amount of water around in a collapsible container was just to much apparently. Only time will tell with the linking hose. Thanks again for watching and happy camping. James

What’s wrong with an aqua roll had one for 25 years still does the job .

[@CaravanEscapades101]

Hi absolutely nothing and I wont be getting rid of mine, For us it was for when we are touring around in France and we store the Aqua role in the Toilet, we stop of regularly on the journeys and keep the caravan as clutter free as possible so it is a usable space. These would also give the opportunity of carrying 210L of water, which we would do in the caravan. I think the majority of the time we would continue to use the Aqua Role, I also thi9nk this product is probably more suited to the Camper and Camper Van market but that is my opinion. Thanks for watching and happy camping James

[@PaulEnt1]

Not for me James , I think the quality isn’t there

[@CaravanEscapades101]

Hi. all I can say is that the I have had other Colapz Product for several years and it has worked well and been robust, The Trolley Remains to be seen how robust it is and will it continue to work, Was the Handle on the Barrell a One off Who Known's only time will tell I guess. Thanks for watching and commenting , Happy Camping James

[@jamesdavison9483]

Not for me don't think its a long term product

[@CaravanEscapades101]

I agree, it is probably good for certain applications in Caravaning, and maybe more suited to Camping and Campervans, Happy Camping James

[@leearmsby7351]

Not for me, they have clearly demonstrated what sort of business they are 👎

[@CaravanEscapades101]

Let's see if Shaun is good to his word, the 20ll Barrels aside, I have been using Colapz product for a while and they have been robust and reliable, Thanks for watching and commenting, Happy Camping James

[@Mike-ip8hg]

Ha ha he's even talking aload of crap😢😢😢.Mind you he looks a bit you !!! are you related and really got shares in the company..😮😮😮

[@CaravanEscapades101]

Hi Mike, lol no not related and I don't have shares in the company at all, and they haven't paid me or given me any of the product, it has all bee paid for out of my own hard earned money. I thought it was only fair that I give them the right to reply following on from my vlogs, Shaun seems to be a nice guy, that is genuinely concerned about how customers have been dealt with on this one, Time will tell if he is good to his word, I have been using other Colapz Product for Several Years (Paid for by Myself) and it has been robust and works well, Is the 20l a good product, it may be, is it good for the Caravan Market that may not be the case, is it good for certain applications, I am sure it is. Thanks again for watching. Happy Camping James
