This Luxury Sprinter Van Looks Like a Mini Upscale Apartment

[@timbtimmyjim]

Love it!! That is what is irritating about so many builds, they do a van conversion and say they live in it, yet it has no bathroom!! You guys did a true "livable" van conversion-- BEAUTIFUL JOB!!!!!!!!!

[@jacqueslerocques]

That space under the bed is everything

[@ReadySetVan]

Thanks again for coming by, Patrick! Happy to answer any questions anyone has about the build, and looking forward to seeing people’s response to it. We LOVE this van.

[@benhomola4703]

Beautiful finishes inside and out. Real question with this build though - where do you put your clothes, shoes, jackets, blankets, headlamps, towels, front window shades, regularly used gear - you know...all the things you actually use? Those small overheads will get filled up real quick. When building out our Sprinter van, I spent a lot of time thinking about how to practically live well in it. For me, that included lots of counter space, places to hang jackets, towels, the day's clothes, and store blankets, hammocks, books, instruments, lights, technology, food, dog items, . This van really is beautiful and having lived in one for a few months, it doesn't seem practical for real life living for one let alone three.

[@karendionne2228]

Excellent points! 👏👏👏

[@DebbiAnn2]

I agree! I was wondering the same thing!

[@janetholdread]

I love the eas of maneuverability I'm thinking eventually building something similar except ima build a trailer to pull behind deep freezer bathroom massive closet grill batry bank solar kayack racks and bunch fishing gear storage still easy to maneuver way more room inside van truck what ever you choose to tow with

[@NewJerseyOutdoorAdventures]

Thank you!

[@ReadySetVan]

Thank you! We love the seat upholstery choice, as well.

[@kgrant3184]

Nice van. One thing that always strikes me, is how - in these uber-small spaces - almost NO ONE thinks to curve the edges of their tables/ counters at the corners, so that one doesn't jab themselves as they scoot past. You don't lose much useable space, but you DO save the hips from pointy bashes. Also, in this van, there seems to be wasted space above the galley area. One could install slim-depth, secure holders or even a narrow-depth "appliance garage" for various items, and still keep the streamlined-look and line of sight. As a former tall, gangly teen, I learned of the perils of sharp corners the hard way, and then learned of bullnose and double-bullnose counters in my design books. A minor change, but can prevent MANY preventable "owwies" as we move about. TFS, Patrick. Cheers!

[@paulbailey5915]

Beautiful van. I had the pleasure of seeing this van in-person and getting a tour of the shop (thanks Ben, thanks Chris). Read Set Van quality is next level and near obsessive (in a good way) attention to detail.

[@michaelscarfi3196]

The work covering those pillars is quite nice. There is a lot of attention to detail. I’d like to point out a few major deficiencies with those arctic tern windows though for anyone else interested in them. I used them on my second build after using the CRL on my first. The windows are opened manually and click into various positions somewhat limiting how much you can open them. Number two because you open them manually by pushing the window you must open the screen to adjust them which is not only a pain in the middle of the night but it lets all the bugs in that are trapped by the screen.,which also leads to the problem in the morning when is time to start driving. The windows can’t be left open because the wind from driving blows them open so you’re staring out through the screen at hundreds of insects and you can’t open the screen to close the window. Now what? Last but not least the best part of the window ,the screen/ blackout built in unit is cheaply made, anything more than a light touch knocks it out of alignment and screws it up. A pillow, a stray arm or god forbid a small child gets near it and it’s done. Add to that it’s extremely expensive 400 to 600 dollars for a flimsy piece of plastic and that’s diy. Just saying …

[@NewJerseyOutdoorAdventures]

Thanks for the feedback on the windows.

[@SPQRKlio]

Disappointing-I had put those on my list for my dream van build-but good to know.

[@michaelscarfi3196]

Thats just the tip of the iceberg I just didn’t want to go on any longer.

[@ReadySetVan]

Thanks for the comment on the pillars - it's a TON of work but we think it's worth it. The finished product is amazing. And we get what you're saying with the Tern windows - that's all true! Except that the screen/blackout is the nicest version we've come across. We've only experienced worse build quality from other companies, unfortunately, and maintain that this is the best one. If you come across a better one we'd love to hear it!

[@michaelscarfi3196]

@@ReadySetVan I totally get it. Unfortunately if it’s not built for the boat world and just the RV world it’s usually total crap. You’re forced to overpay for what you judge to be the least crappy item that available. Max air fan is another piece of junk that’s the best available.

[@dominey]

This is really close to my ideal layout. Love the USB-C monitor connection and StarLink up top. If they installed a little laptop pouch under the table, could have a clean keyboard and mouse only setup. If the King were longer (eg, 82 inch) it would be amazing. Or, Flarespace flares and a sideways bed to create a little more cabin space.

[@NewJerseyOutdoorAdventures]

That's a great idea!

I had a class a I really enjoy the idea of ease of drivability of the sprinter thinking of building one but building a trailer to tow behind with washer dryer shower and clothing closets deep freezer up top racks for kayacks I'm throwing that idea out there to see if someone will take that idea and run with it iv seen portable bathrooms shower trailers at a place I use to work but adding a trailer could turn that build into amazing extra room in the van be cool to see

[@dtadventure4x4]

Very clean built. Seen some of your previous van builds as well. I guess my only "complaint" is that I would put the electrical switches and USB/12V outlet so close to the sink or the induction cooktop. Other than that - beautiful built.

[@mantalatina]

Hey, Patrick. Love the videos, but for some reason when interviewing builders who build a van for a client, there is something lost, like there is no joy, it's just another job. It's much more interesting to see actual people who built from scratch or learned or are traveling to show off their builds. There isn't any heart per se, so if you can find people who built and decorated their own instead of builders who build, that'd be much more fun to see!

[@windsweptwhimsy]

I agree, but these builder videos are great fill-ins between the self-built vans. Us DIYers also get ideas from all the van builds we see. I can't afford to do all that the high-end builders do, but it gives me inspiration.

[@ReadySetVan]

Ha, that's honestly great feedback. We're obsessed with vans and they give us TONS of joy but after a lot of them we probably sound less psyched. We should have some owners do a tour sometime :)

[@gmodeezix9968]

I think it's gonna be more amazing if the front passenger seat can convert as office space with the computer not on the back of the seat the tv monitor can hang on the top and turns also put a pop up tent on top of the van and the passage will be in side the solar put it on the top of the pop up tent the pop up tent is for he children and at the pop up tent put a USB plug for gadgets and pock light also put a mini fan the rest inside is ok and try to add speakers outside if the family thinks to gather outside
