Our 2021 Intech Sol Horizon Review and Tour - By Actual Owners and Users!

[@hischosen1409]

I am thoroughly enjoying the tour of your 2021 camper. You are NOT boring or redundant. Would love to have a camper like this for myself....keep up the quality work that you have displayed... My first time viewing your work.

[@CouchPotatoCamping]

Thank you very much!

[@danielhardwick2926]

You certainly know your little trailer, and I appreciate the great job you did! You’re as good or better than the professional models reviewing RV’s! That RV is absolutely a beautiful, practical home on wheels! Thankyou!

[@CouchPotatoCamping]

Wow, thank you! We appreciate you viewing our video and the positive feedback!

[@kurtburkhardt5862]

We have just purchased a 2024 Sol Horizon. We did a LOT of research, including watching your videos. Thanks for showing the options of the trailer including some of your personal touches. We are upgrading the battery and inverter as we do camp away from campgrounds fairly often. As tent/Overlanders this is our first travel trailer. We look forward to getting out this spring and enjoying the RV life.

[@CouchPotatoCamping]

Thank you for watching and enjoy your Horizon! Glad we could help!

The trailer ain't bad either

[@randycessna4403]

I'm wondering why they left that 10-11" recess at the dining table.If there was a slightly wider cross pad it would make for a larger front bed when deployed.Also,they could have installed a larger fridge...a 12 volt one at that and put the microwave across the way above the sink. The sink is awesome for such a small trailer. Oh,and the microwave could have been a "convection" style,being that it has no oven.Lower end trailers have that.Id get one if they widened it by 8" and lengthened it by only 12"Theres a lot they do for what they charge but a lot they dont.Other than that I'd give it a 7.8.

[@CouchPotatoCamping]

Very nice professional presentation and video. You may want to mention the type of arms on the awning as a preferred system. I like that they are up and out of the way. My daughter has this on her Lance trailer. I did not see where the batteries are stored but I may have missed that in fast forwarding a couple of times. This trailer has many excellent features to consider. You may want to list the specifications in the description section.

[@cruisepuppy]

Beautiful camper - I love the brightness of it inside! However, I think it's kind of a shame that they put that amazing huge window on the front of the camper where your view is always gonna be the back of your truck. It would be nice to have that on the back end of the camper that overlooks the woods or the lake where ever you are parked. I guess if it was me, I'd just prefer to have the layout switched around with the view and the dinette area in back. Nice job on showing this camper and all its features!

[@nette49]

Does the table lock when you are eating? That would be horrible to have a table moving every time you touch it. Beverages spilling, etc. That is one feature that bothers me. But the pros..... great size for a fridge, love the bathroom and bedroom. Really nice trailer.

[@CouchPotatoCamping]

The table does spin but it was never an issue with us when eating. The table pole is quite solid and locked in tightly - no issues there.

[@callieduval3000]

Extremely thorough love it

[@CouchPotatoCamping]

Thank you!

[@michaeldesimone5633]

Only question I have is if you were going to travel a good amount of time in this camper is where would you keep your clothes and jackets?? Also thorough video! Thanks!

[@CouchPotatoCamping]

Good question! And one we had to really put some thought into, too. We kept our jackets and some shoes in the cabinets over the bed. However, because these cabinets are weird shaped and don't hold much, it wasn't an option for more than a few items of clothing. However, we could have smushed clothing into packing cubes and kept it up there more easily. We also kept towels up there. We tried putting clothes in the cabinets over the dinette, which also worked. But after several months of travel, here is what worked: Kim had a soft basket that was full of her clothes which stayed on the bed in the corner during the day, and was moved to the dinette at night. Daniel had a large box of clothes that was stashed underneath the kitchen sink. While none of these options is probably what you want to hear, that's what we found to be best. As far as jackets, if you are hanging them the best place is in the bathroom. Many people put Command Hooks on the walls to hold jackets, but there is only so much room in the trailer and it clutters up easily, especially if you have clothing hanging on your walls.

[@D_Grouchy_Old_Man]

Put a dab of spray adhesive on the Styrofoam pipe protector to hold it in place

[@CouchPotatoCamping]

Great idea!

[@ChanceP]

Stylish rig. For how small it looks it still looks roomy. Very cool!

[@CouchPotatoCamping]

It is!

[@itllbesuzanarchy]

Is the storage area under the dinette the only part of the dinette that has storage? You mentioned the other side has the battery (I think!) in it. What about the center portion? Such a sleek, modern trailer! Great review too.

[@CouchPotatoCamping]

Yes. The only storage area under the dinette is the section near the door (it’s actually larger than you might think). The center section is actually where the propane tank area is located which is accessible only from the exterior. The other side is where the battery is located and you’re not supposed to store anything in there.

[@wewin1776]

Thank you so much! We are looking for the same one and your video helped a lot to make the decision!

[@CouchPotatoCamping]

Glad it was helpful! That's what we're trying to do, knowing that actually getting the chance to see one at a dealer lot is pretty rare.

[@JoeJacksonGT3]

Nice video! I'm taking delivery of mine in a few weeks. I wondered if anyone has any ideas on turning that dinette table into an articulating table without modifying anything? I did some searching but couldn't locate anything to the Sol models?

[@CouchPotatoCamping]

There Are quite a few owners who have taken out the table and put in a lagun table which swivels out from the side. Of course, that is going to require some installation. Is that where you are considering? Have you joined the Facebook group and have seen all of the people that have done it?

[@JoeJacksonGT3]

@@CouchPotatoCamping hm. I haven't looked into that yet. Also, I have not joined the Facebook group yet. I need to join Facebook first lol. Thanks!

[@CouchPotatoCamping]

No need to join Facebook! There are lagun table kits on Amazon. If you can figure out the instructions with the kit, you’re good to go!!!

[@judyhackett4846]

Have you had the dreaded axle problems? That's what's making me hesitant of getting one, unless I want to put more money in to get it fixed right.

[@CouchPotatoCamping]

Judy, our axle was replaced just in case. So, no, we don't have the axle problem. Don't be hesitant about getting one. If you are getting a model year that had the issue, many of the previous owners have already had it replaced. So just ask if you are buying used, and if you are buying a new 2022, then no worries about the axle replacement.

[@CouchPotatoCamping]

The previous owner of our 2021 Sol Horizon had the axle upgraded to avoid the axle issues. During that process, they also added a 2" lift to ours like you see on the Sol Horizon Rover models. Many people with bad axles are getting theirs replaced through the warranty process at no cost to them, but I've read mixed reviews of that process.

[@kimberlyknapp3834]

What tips do you have for keeping the wet bath clean? Do you find that conditioner/shampoo make the toilet slimy or anything?

[@CouchPotatoCamping]

We never had an issue with hair products making the wet bath nasty. After every shower we used a squeegee on all the walls and floor to get latent water off - that seemed to help the most. For cleaning we used a mild soap (in our case Branch Basics) and a microfiber cleaning sponge/cleaning eraser (we get ours at the Dollar Store). We don’t suggest cleaning it with a brush or anything rough as it will destroy the gel coat on the fiberglass walls in the wet bath. Thank you for watching!

[@micheleobrien64]

I had no idea the overhead was so deep! You cant see that in videos!❤🎉🎉

[@jocelyneparent9833]

Love your videos and all your tips... looking to buy one in 1 or 2 years. Question: do you use the original mattress for the Queen bed in the back or you purchased something else? Thanks

[@CouchPotatoCamping]

We purchased a different mattress system in an effort to find our preferred comfort, but you can use either the mattress that comes with the RV or purchase a different Queen size mattress of your choice. Thank you for watching!

[@tammycruz8189]

I really love this

[@anitarohm5031]

Like it, but I want every window to open with a screen & window in bathroom.

[@melbajeanmeadlo8248]

I like this camper , it would be for one person. What was the length and weight ?

[@CouchPotatoCamping]

Ii is 19’ from the hitch to the rear of the trailer. Max weight allowed is 3,900 - 4,000 pounds. It’s hitch weight will vary depending on how much load/gear you add but that will be in the 500 - 600 pound range.

[@karenfreund208]

Can it be used in the winter?

[@CouchPotatoCamping]

While it’s not technically a four season trailer, it could be used in the winter if your winter destinations were mild temperatures. The biggest concerns would be keeping the fresh water line from freezing and the fresh water and grey/black water tanks from freezing. A strong emphasis on mild-weather winter destinations.

[@andrewbrowning2281]

I have a question--when you are towing the Sol Horizon, do you run the refrigerator off the truck battery through the seven-way cable? A salesman told us that would drain the trailer's battery.

[@CouchPotatoCamping]

The most efficient way to run the refrigerator when towing is using propane - a power source option on many RV refrigerators including the 2021 Sol Horizon. Once you reach your destination you would then want to switch the refrigerator’s power source to electric/shore power (if available at your destination). I never powered the refrigerator off the RV’s battery when towing since it is a less efficient power source, however some people prefer using the RV house battery option over using propane when towing (a minor debate in the RV world). The refrigerator pulls power from the RV’s house battery when selected using that power source on the fridge. When towing your seven pin cable will charge the RV’s house battery as you drive - the fridge will not pull power directly from your tow vehicle’s battery since the trailer’s wiring is not designed and wired that way.

[@chrisreed26]

I love this little trailer! I have to comment that it looks like the wet bath door is the same door lock as an exterior entry door with a lock AND dead bolt? Do they anticipate that the bathroom needs the extra security or do you guys have a secret you aren't telling us??!! haha

[@CouchPotatoCamping]

Our lips are sealed! Actually, the door to the wet bath on the InTech trailers IS a standard exterior RV door. Seems odd but it actually seals great for showers. The door hardware is exterior grade since it may get wet during use. The presence of a deadbolt is funny and a little overkill, but…. Thank you for watching!

[@Robe7783]

Excellent video and great information!! As for the table, is there a way to secure it so it does not move when eating? Thx!

[@CouchPotatoCamping]

Not that I know of. It doesn't really move too much unless you push on it.

[@basilbcf]

I noticed screens over the water heater vent and little dome-shaped screens over the heat vent exhaust. When I saw a Sol Eclipse at local dealer, I didn't see those - are those screens something you added to keep critters out?

[@CouchPotatoCamping]

Yes, we did add all of the covers. It’s one of the first things we do for any trailer to protect all of the vents.

[@laurelglass9326]

So What's the length n width of this camper?

[@CouchPotatoCamping]

Here’s a link to the InTech Sol Horizon that provides all of the stats: intech.com/rv/models/sol/horizon/

[@kingslender1874]

What is the quality of these like? I heard RV's took a nosedive as far as quality goes over the past few years as they try to keep up with demand.

[@CouchPotatoCamping]

We believe the quality of the InTech RV's - including the Sol Horizons - is far better than other comparable travel trailer manufacturers. We've toured many, many RV's and travel trailers as a comparison point. Are there unique situations where people have had issues with their Sol Horizons? Certainly, but as a company the quality of their build and the build of ours is noticeably better than others (and our previous Forest River travel trailer).

The previous owner of our 2021 Sol Horizon had the axle upgraded to avoid the axle issues many are having. They also added a 2" lift to ours like you see on the Sol Horizon Rover models. The outdoor hose is cold water only and is not connected to the hot water lines or hot water tank in the trailer.

[@andrewbrowning2281]

@@CouchPotatoCamping To clarify the axle story--a very few owners (under 10) of the first year's production had failures of the axle attachment weld. InTech (or Dexter, the axle manufacturer) replaced ALL of the initial year's run and that was that. Nobody had a failure while driving, by the way.

[@jennidumlao3772]

Hello Ben shopping for a trailer never owned one bf. What is the approximate cost of this trailer? Ty

[@CouchPotatoCamping]

Cost will depend on which model of the Sol Horizon you purchase - there are two models of the Sol Horizon: the base model and the Rover. The base 2022 Sol Horizon model MSRP's (depending on where in the U.S. you buy it) starting around $36k to $39k. The Sol Horizon Rover model we are seeing MSRP prices at $42k and above. The prices for either model will vary depending what features/options are included or added if you order a new one. Used Sol Horizons are going for a few thousand dollars cheaper than the prices listed above depending on location, options, model year, etc. One thing to note is the current demand for InTech RV's, including the Sol Horizons, is high with a low supply. Something to consider if you're looking to purchase a new or used one.

[@lakrfan4980]

The only thing I don't care for on the trailer is the large ranch style sink. I would prefer a smaller sink with more counter space.

[@CouchPotatoCamping]

We love the sink, but understand the need for counter space, too. That’s why it’s so awesome you can unroll the sink topper and expand your space. You could always put a large cutting board on top for more solid service space.

[@mjosheehy]

Wonderful! What type of vehicle does one need to pull this?

[@CouchPotatoCamping]

We've seen a plethora of different types of tow vehicles for this particular trailer. While most are pickup trucks there are some Sol's being towed with SUVs, etc. It really gets down to the tow vehicle's ability to meet its specific GVWR requirements and its tongue weight capacity which those two specs can vary even within the vehicle's brand/model. You really have to look at a vehicle's specific towing specs rather than just broad-brush assumptions of a particular line of vehicles (this is even the case with respect to pickup trucks). The other thing to consider is, depending on the type of tow vehicle, is to evaluate if it will require a weight distribution hitch to meet its specific manufacturer's towing requirements for a specific tow vehicle model. I know this response sounds high-level, but when it comes to towing you really have to get specific to a particular vehicle you might be considering as a tow vehicle and check it's specs to confirm if it will be able to tow the Sol Horizon or other trailers. What type of vehicle are you considering to tow a Sol Horizon?

[@koalabear6722]

I'd say the large window should be in the back, for a view, star gazing ect. Wet bathe ia wet, a lot of drying. 😢

[@CouchPotatoCamping]

Obviously the Sol isn’t your cup of tea.

[@songguo9633]

Hey nice video! I am looking for buying one but have a quick question: Do you know the tongue weight when it's fully loaded and water tanks full? I know the brochure says something less than 495lb but I'd like to know the real world situation. Thank you!

[@CouchPotatoCamping]

Hey! The 495 lbs weight listed by InTech - as we've been told - is with the Sol Horizon dry/empty. In actuality we've recorded the tongue weight at approximately 560 lbs when the trailer (not fully loaded) weighed in at 3,600+/- lbs. The 560 lbs was the actual tongue weight since we do not have a load distribution hitch or sway control on our Sol Horizon. That ratio (560/3600) falls in line with the industry recommendations where they suggest you want your tongue weight to be 10% - 15% of your trailer's overall weight. Thank you for the comments and questions!

[@songguo9633]

[@WeekendWandering]

Excellent video! I actually love what you did with the storage under the kitchen sink! I think I'll steal that idea! I got a lot of great ideas from this, so thank you! Also, I noticed you didn't have the legs of the awning down... do you not use those??

[@mdamenti]

Great video....we're scheduled to get ours the first week of January, so I'm sure we'll be watching this again. Very helpful! Quick question do you have a generator, or do you think one is needed?

[@CouchPotatoCamping]

Mike, the need for a generator will truly depend on your style of RVing/camping. If you plan to stay in campsites or locations 80%+ of the time that have partial or full hookups, investing in a generator may not be required. However, if you plan to boon dock or RV/camp off the grid a majority of the time, then I would suggest getting some sort of generator whether it is a gas, propane or a lithium 'generator' option such as a Jackery. Something else to consider if you plan to RV off the grid a high percentage: the locations and time of year you plan to RV/camp will also factor into the need for a generator. For example, if you plan to go out west in the summer or Florida (almost anytime of the year), you will most likely want the use of your A/C to deal with heat and humidity. On the flip side, if you plan to RV/camp in the shoulder seasons or winter seasons you may want a generator to help keep your RV warm. Remember, you cannot run your 110V outlets, A/C or your RV's heat off your standard RV house batteries, you need some sort of supplemental power such as shore power or generator power. Thank you for the questions. Please feel free to ask us more!

What do you tow this with? A V8 truck or similar, I'd expect. It must be a beast at highway speeds for any v6 cross-over with 5000 tow rating with that inward angle and top lip catching as much air drag as possible. There is a reason for rounded or sloped front ends on the very best trailers available. It seems like a laughable design, aerodynamically.

[@CouchPotatoCamping]

We tow ours with a Ford F-150 with the V6 EcoBoost engine and factory tow package. The Sol Horizon being an all aluminum frame and substructure with an all fiberglass shell (and just under 4,000 lbs fully loaded) tows really well. Our Ford has a lot of torque so even when the Sol Horizon is loaded for long (30+ day) trips I rarely knew the trailer was back there. We don't need to use a load distribution hitch or sway control when towing with our setup with the F-150. The only noticeable sway I've ever dealt with towing the Horizon with our setup was in Arizona with strong 40+ mph crosswinds, otherwise no major sway issues. On the highways I could easily tow our Horizon at 65 mph with no issues, still maintain decent MPG, and have plenty of power to pass large trucks, etc. if necessary.

@@CouchPotatoCamping Thanks for your reply. My comment was intended to warn v6 cross-over drivers that there 5000 tow rating is meaningless if you can't get to highway speeds due to excessive wind drag. They will end up with an F-150 like yours after realizing massive wind drag will keep them from meeting the speed limits on most highways.

@@joecurry7249 We tow with an Audi Q7 3.0 v6. No problem whatsoever--just have to watch the speedometer to stay under 75 mph.

Didn’t I have a dream about this…?

A dream come true!

The beds aren't big enough if you're 6' or taller.

[@CouchPotatoCamping]

We agree.

Thanks for great video, we are looking to buy exact camper. I love how you take your time to show all the details. ❤️🙏☮️🌎

[@CouchPotatoCamping]

Thank you so much!!! We had to rely on video tours, too, before buying. Trying to create the videos we wish we could have seen before purchasing!

[@micheleobrien64]

Yeah the clothes hanger is dumb.

[@CouchPotatoCamping]

It definitely needs to be redesigned.

[@mlk4life]

the bed is the problem. noone wants to get in and out of that at any time.

[@gregallsmagic]

The design looks like someone came up with in the 1950’s of what the future of campers would be like in the 1990’s. If that makes sense.
