This Prefab Tiny House with Integrated Deck is an Instant Home - FULL TOUR

The Plunk Pod is an instant housing solution because it can be put anywhere, and it's mobile and relocatable. This particular model measures 10' x 32' (3m x 9.75m) for a total of 320 square feet, which includes an integrated front deck. The Plunk Pod can be set up to be on or off the grid depending on the systems. For example, with solar, septic, and a well it could be completely off-grid.
The interior is open concept, with a galley kitchen, a bathroom at the back, and the rest is flex space that can be set up how you want, with seating, a sleeping area, a dining area, etc.
A Plunk Pod can be used as a cabin, a backyard home, an ADU, a home office, and more. They are built by Northern Shield in Ontario, Canada. You can find out more about these Plunk Podz, and see more container and prefab homes built by Northern Shield on their website and on social media:

price? do they ship to america?

[@thor4odin749]

98k...really??? Looked at several new single wide, 12x76 for 50-65k, ( fully steel framed) certified house spec construction, load em with all appliances and full furnishing and a natural gas generator for 85k....delivered. The Tiny House market is becoming an absolute joke....

[@Lilly-2GBTG]

I agree wholeheartedly and it’s very sad 😢.

[@toddh377]

Was thinking even before seeing the vid "100k". Concept prefabs are for the upper middle class

[@roserocks1979]

Agreed

[@ot9228]

I agree, the point of a tiny home is to spend tiny money.

[@outoftime788]

howd u get that price

[@bellaluce7088]

There are some cool things about this (SIP construction + drywall for aesthetics, the louvered side wall on porch, offering solar), but I agree with other commenters that there are some pretty major design issues. In particular, the bed in the kitchen is a major no-go. I'd prefer a proper bedroom space vs. an integrated porch since porches are easy to add on. *Design Tips:* Painting the walls & trim the same color visually expands small spaces. Chevron flooring competes with zoning.

[@joyannesloan8384]

The layout and staging leave a lot to be desired here... it just feels small and everything is a little bit off. For example, the daybed is not really a bed at all it's just a place to sit because you can't actually lay down. The bar stools are about 2 ft shorter than they need to be under that table. You say it can fit an l-shaped sectional but yet it's not staged that way 🤔 having the door on one end makes everything into a corridor thereby limiting options significantly.

[@sergiobraga6434]

I live in a container home and love it. It is my little paradise in Brazil.

[@lilachiricli6756]

Honestly, you could buy a used static for under £10,000 and refit it with plenty of storage and a better layout for under half the price of these.

[@vibrantperformancetoday39]

What is a 'static',?

[@lilachiricli6756]

@@vibrantperformancetoday39 It's a 'mobile home' without wheels. Large caravan type or chalet.

[@anamalle8722]

You can do a backsplash window and put wall cabinets for more storage.

Yeah, I'm really not feeling this, it's like a box with some walls. Lol... Hard to be enthusiastic with this.

Yes

[@darreno8rien]

Yeaaaaaaaaaah

[@Kara_2505]

Tip for a more efficient and sellable set up: Place a diner bench (with storage under the seat) against the wall wiht the tree painting by the window, add foldable table and chairs. Remove the higher table and higher and lower chairs and place a pull out couch across the tv set.

[@littleone7404]

For that price I would expect A separate bedroom In a stove

[@outoftime788]

wat price

[@dumptruckandme]

@@outoftime788 98k

[@sjr7822]

I got interested in tiny houses when I became a family of one. Tiny houses used to be low cost, some tiny houses cost double what my big house value, so the interest for most of these houses is gone.

[@dumptruckandme]

this!!!!

[@PhonePhone-sf8te]

this one is 98k apparently. Just using youtube and building one seems to be the most logical choice by far.

[@cathylynnpietranton]

Thank you Matt and Danielle. The concept is interesting but if you were to actually live in one of those it needs more substance.❤

[@litwin707]

Those stools at the table are ridiculously short for the height of that table.

[@bluecat2102000]

It's interesting but really need more storages. And $98,900 for this one and $166,450 for the big one... Well, it's a NO for me. You can have better for this price.

[@b_uppy]

This would be improved if instead of a separate shower it has a floor that slopes to one end. This also helps if the sink or toilet overflows. Make it easier to have a washing machine inside instead.

[@roserocks1979]

Haha for that price I can get a new trailer/ moblie home.

[@gnd144]

The key word is "temporary"........For a long term a separate bedroom(you don't want your bed in the kitchen), room for a table or desk, and larger living room. The utilities/solar panels/toilet/water,floors,bathroom, and deck are all very good.

[@Houseds]

The prefabricated house is very beautiful and convenient

Ridiculous. These things were initially positioned as low cost.

That's why the best option is to build it yourself from scratch 😂 Steal the parts of the design that work for you

[@theodorebolan6724]

LOL

[@cyndeeh]

​@BossRedRthat is low cost,compared to todays housing market.anger

I like the exterior, however, the interior needs some re-configuring.

[@singthesongofmypeople]

Cute. I'm not much for the studio arrangement.

😂beautful home.❤❤

[@borobdin]

4:19 A wide but narrow sink? Those are antonyms.

Is this available in Australia

[@marianfrances4959]

The bed deserves a tad of privacy. There are many easy options.

[@JS-go5nd]

How does plumbing work?

[@joel1239871]

I liked the exterior, but think that the interior was really lacking storage. The sleeping solution was pretty lame, along with the kitchen. They need to redesign the interior in my opinion.

[@darcy5823]

Inspiring, but I'd need an oven and bathtub. I see how some people could do without those. I've always wanted a semi-outdoor kitchen and bath tub though!

[@annesmith5192]

I'd need a dishwasher and a washer/dryer combo.

[@d4ve587]

It's Called a caravan 🤣

[@cyndeeh]

I love the price!

[@one234569and10]

I am surprised by how much markup there are on tiny homes. They cost $10,000 to make or less, and they cost $80k or more to buy. Just shocking.

[@Ashlee1985]

Hmm. I don't think I'd have a bed in my kitchen. I'd be too tempted to eat in bed lol

pricing could use some work, but interesting.

[@youknowwithMartyKauffman]

Cool little house

[@nicolelafontaine1720]

🥰

[@Vera-vk9ix]

They just put the stuff along the walls. Looks like a corridor. Or like a mobile office pavilion in the field. The bed pushed in the corner? There is no sofa. It's not a home?

[@williecourthers9450]

How much?

$98k.... AFFORDABLE, A LOT for the price, eh?

[@shakotaalvarez7672]

Too much for my pocket, but like it

[@gingernotturno5365]

its ok for compay but the floor plan is not good for full time living

[@gjm456]

Exterior nice. Interior needs some help.

[@starletsatori8933]

Interesting. Video went blank half way through?

[@cyndeeh]

Not for me

[@ChoKwo]

Why did they lie and say this doesn't need oversize permits? It does. It is clearly wider than 8.5ft. Anyone who sees tiny homes can immediately see that. Unless she meant delivering it unassembled.

[@haf2567]

I'm quite astonished at the fact that some people will complain how about anything I have been trying to build me a home for the past 20 years circumstances have been so unpredictable I have not been able to raise the necessary money to to build if such a thing was really possible in my part of the world at a reasonable cost it would have been nice. A beautiful built.

[@evelynwaugh4053]

It's nice, but $98,000 isn't affordable for many and doesn't, of course, include the land or any permits necessary.

[@PhonePhone-sf8te]

@@evelynwaugh4053 lol if you could wait a month to have one built you could have 5 times that space including the solar and furnishings for that kind of money. I bet the wait time on one of those is longer than 2 months anyway so might as well.

Very well thought out. 👍

[@d.kennedy7627]

[@joemccormick1660]

This is a practical, innovative solution to soaring housing costs. It is far better than paying half a million++ for a 400-square-foot condo in Toronto or Vancouver.

[@le.c.3111]

I do not like this pod thing at all….and no, you can not just “plunk” this anywhere…..most every county in every state, will not allow tiny/Mobil houses to live in….you will not get an occupancy permit, and the owner of the land it sits on will get fined….buyer beware, finding a place to plop this will be very difficult……..and lastly, $98,000 for this is a horrible price… 6:22

There are good things about it. I wish the interior was more modern.

Other than the lovely porch, this is a boring box wit h the bedroom in the kitchen. Meh.

With all due respect, I am sure that those forced to live in a cardboard box or under a bridge would think it a palace and be more than grateful 🙏🏼

[@maryk6407]

It’s not clear to me why you would bring that up. I agree with you, but unless I missed them describing this as a great housing option for the poor, I don’t see the point of your harsh critique of my comments that are based on aesthetics (which are based on individual tastes).

[@aarendal]

👍😎❤️

[@ExploringAlternatives]

Thanks for watching :)

[@rosalynmartin519]

I don’t care for the set up. The kitchen should be in the front not the middle of the unit. Enter through the kitchen will give the bedroom area a more homey feeling. This setup makes no sense to me.
