I owned one of these and thought it was great. A couple of comments on the heat and AC. First, the Alde heating was phenomenal. No noise. Really nice for sleeping on a cold night. Even cracked the windows to better hear sounds - kinda like sleeping under the stars with the star gazer window. The AC won’t cool the trailer if it’s very hot. I camped in Florida in the summer and found that the temperature at 6 feet up was 20 degrees higher than at floor level under direct sunlight during the day with the shades down and the thermometer maxed low. I thought I was getting ill at first (cold feet, hot head)! Also, the vent at the back blew right at your head when you lay in bed - I tried a rotating vent but it didn’t work well so I just disconnected the duct at the AC side. Still a nice unit.

I love that this camper finally has some counter space for cooking, although it is kind of interrupted by the stove. If the stove was either right next to the sink or on the other side, it owuld be far more useful. Microwave is convenient, but I don't think I would ever get a camaper again that does not have a convection oven.

This is a very stylish, and innovative travel trailer. I really like it. The prices are pretty high, but, I guess you get what you pay for. Our new Casita is priced at $31,000, fully loaded, with a dry weight and a tongue weight less than the T@B. We met a guy in Croton-On-Hudson RV park who lived in a T@B. The Metro North commuter train station was adjacent to the park, so he was able to commute to his job in Manhattan every day, and still live in a very nice RV park by the Hudson River, in the cool little town of Croton-On-Hudson.

Even the price on this trailer has went up quite a bit in the last 3 years. I think the older Scamps hit a sweet spot for the compact SUVs and smaller mid-size SUVS. And then you have the modern Scamps and Casitas, which weigh a bit more, and fit just right for most of our mid-size SUVs. Even with the Casita's little extra weight over the Scamp it really doesn't put it into a new towing class. So you are basically getting a bit more of an upgraded interior, but not sacrificing much in terms of towing. I think this is why the fiberglass trailers have been so popular for so long. They are easy for many people to get into, maintain, and not to mention they hold their value incredibly well. That is neat that you got to meet someone living full time in a T@B. Its so fun running into people like this.

The T@b400 is my "if money were no object" dream trailer and has been for years. My compromise is that I bought a SylvanSportGO with the solar and GOzeebo. It meets our needs and allows me to keep a luggable loo handy in the trailer for those midnight calls from mother nature. A girl can dream, however, so who knows? Maybe some day I'll have the money to upgrade to this one.

There is something about bunks that bring back camping nostalgia for me. I was so glad to see NuCamp chose to utilize the extra space making this a family friendly trailer. And I will admit I am often jealous of that window. We are trying to put a lot of windows in our new trailer. My only concern is heat during the day.

For a retired single person is be a fantastic trailer. I do see quite a bit of wasted space or space that you pack stuff in and we'll forget about. Like the small windows area. Unsure how much wasted space is underneath that bed that is unaccessible. And who put air conditioners on the floor? Having all your accessories on the inside of your trailer in case it is bad weather for a prolonged time, would allow you to stay in one place instead of traveling to better weather. Sure do miss her traveling videos though. Another great video! Thank you!

And I like the nooks and crannies, for the fact that it feels a bit more like a home. But, I would be interested to see how it lives on the road. An AC floor mounted in a small teardrop trailer is one thing. But on something large like this it has me scratching my head a bit. I would be interested to hear more from current owners.

As an owner of a 2021 T@b 400 I have to say the Dometic Cool Cat AC is wonderful and I prefer it at the feet. It creates a much lower profile on the roof and is one less large hole that has to be cut in the roof. It is also ducted so it blows cold in the bed area, at head level, and out of two floor level vents in the dinette area. We just turn our MaxAir vent on low and it pulls out the warm air at head level and pull up the cold air. I would not trade it for a roof mounted AC in this trailer.

If you use solar or portable solar power stations try the Dash mini cookers. They work with 500w power stations. No need to use a 1500 watt griddle or waffle maker. Plus, low wattage rice cookers are great to have for various off-grid cooking needs. You can get the small one Dash has that only uses 200w of power. It`s small but effective.

They plug into the cigarette lighter port. Dash has mini griddles, waffle maker, etc that use only 350 watts but are AC. They have a 4 inch diameter cooking surface. The griddle makes a huge perfectly browned pan biscuit in a few minutes or a pancake in one minute. I`ve never used their rice cooker. I hear it can`t cook one dry cup of rice. But you can heat water, soup, and cook more than rice using low wattage with rice cookers.

So, if I’m understanding you right, it sounds like the lower placement of the AC doesn’t really impact the cooling properties because of how small the camper is? Basically, it feels the same temperature from head to toe, correct? I’ve been wondering this, because at some point we will experiment with a portable AC for the channel.

hmm, company here makes a perfect garage for this. 8' wide doors x 9 high, 12' wide x 20 long, you drive straight in, unhook the trailer, drive out the other side... no backing in, turning around lol. (they can bump them out to 44' long for insane lengths) In this size you really are looking at a "heavy" trailer in a small package... Has all the benefits of a larger trailer but all the flaws too. It doesn't have the "interior space" per say, in large trailers like say, the Featherlite Country Estate Villa horse trailer, (do not look that up Drew). but still requires a substantial towing vehicle. (sure it doesn't require a 5th wheel toy hauler but). You have to either buy or modify your tow vehicle, now for some who are using their vehicle for work, carrying heavy loads and/or already towing heavy cargo...thats fine... but this might turn a "day driver" truck, into something less useful for day driving, less fuel economical, and in some cases, without a load, less comfortable on some city roads as the stiffer shocks and suspensions don't compress as much without load. in truth i think this is a great little 1-2 person trailer camper, the only thing i'd be adding would be... a propane generator. But thats just me.
@PlayingwithSticks
@PlayingwithSticks Жыл бұрын
I could see how the alp generator would be a good fit with this. You really said it well when you described it as being a heavy trailer in a small package. And that’s another thing I probably should’ve pointed out. Another reason why it’s heavy is because the build quality going into trailers like this is much better than 90% of what is coming out of the large RV industry. These guys could’ve cut some corners and reduced the overall weight, but then this trailer would’ve been no different than the poorly crafted ultralight trailers coming out of Indiana. I think we all know some other “teardrops” coming out of the large RV industry, that I won’t mention here. And most of us know they come with a plethora of issues. So it’s a bit of a catch 22. You get a better built trailer, but now you’re up against weight issues. That’s kind of the beauty of overbuilt trailers that are smaller and under 1800 pounds. They are able to push the limits in terms of quality components, and still not require you to do modifications or buy entirely new tow vehicles. One of these days I need to pull up my stats between the Sellwood and this tab 400. I would be interested to see the difference in overall weight and tongue weight. OK fine. I’ll do it now. 😂 Interesting…They are almost identical. 2800lbs and 400lbs. Vs T@Bs 2,831lbs and 390 lbs.

Besides the fact that you can hear it all over my rural language and communication skills. I grew up in a ranch family. Well, I don’t know if you can really call what we have a ranch. We consider it more of a hobby ranch at 30-60 head. But even though many of my friends were Bulldoggers and riders, the horse trailer scene is one I don’t know much about. My mom takes out the horses with friends who have some of these elaborate $100,000 horse trailers. They are nicer than my dad’s fifth wheel!

Hi Drew! First of all: thank you for making those conversions - I was almost going to google convert after hearing you ask Mandy about the height and suddenly appeared and I was like: HEY 😊 this guy remembered! Very much appreciated 🙏🏼. Since I saw the presentation of this trailer I loved the room and interior design but looking it from the outside is kind of a real thing in terms of teardrop size. For us seeking an off road capable minimalist and roomy (yes the picky ones), this seems to be kind of a big deal. Overall I loved it just doesn’t seem to fit in my plans. Speaking of off road, does this trailer has independent suspension? All the best amigo, un abrazo de familia a familia 🙌🏼

Somehow my first response vanished. Glad to hear you enjoyed the conversions. As you know, you inspired it! I'm glad you pushed me to do it. When you see a picture of the famous PJ from NuCamp in front of the T@B 400 you realize just how big it is. It is a pretty sizeable trailer. As for suspension I believe it is torsion axle and I would assume it is from Dexter. I actually think torsion axles make great offroad suspension. Although not technically independent, each wheels acts independently of the other. Basically on each side of the axle you have an independent arm that raises up and down. It equates to a very smooth ride and good overall towing experience. Great seeing you on here as always! Sending hugs to you as well.

It is a decent trailer. I think much better than the 300 series. I would like to know how the durability of the T@b has been. I think it would be nice if it had a layout with no or a smaller bath for those who don’t really want the bathroom. The tongue weight was more than I expected. 400 pounds is pretty significant for a small camper and pushes the limit on some receiver hitches installed on many vehicles. What is the price?

Hi Garret. Sorry about the confusing price location. I accidentally forgot to include the price in my first edit. Luckily May caught it last second before I posted. The originally T@Bs years ago had durability issues. Like big time! One of the major ones was with the subfloor. But since then the company has split (half went to Little Guy, half went NuCamp). After that split I believev NuCamp changed manufacturers and has greatly updated the design over the years. Where in the past I often heard about issues, today I don't really hear about it. Not to say there probably aren't issues, because there are issues with every trailer. But, the fact I don't get emails about it says a lot. With a company that has this many trailers on the road, I would expect to hear a lot of negative things. But I don't. I have been surveying T@G owners for about 3 years straight now. Every T@G I see on the road I follow them. May hates it! But, it has really given me a good understanding of the T@G build. Because these are mass produced I have always been a little skeptical. But, my skepticism is waning. Now when it comes to the T@B I haven't been as fortunate to meet as many owners. I have probably only talked to 20 or so T@B owners. Like you mentioned with the bathroom, back in the day they actually made non-bathroom models. A lot of folks in the PWS community own these models. Which makes sense as many of us prefer outdoor baths/showers. Great seeing you Garret!

Another excellent review with a keen eye! There is much to like, but understand the compromises. The tongue weight is of concern. AC on the floor? Um… is it for the dog? 😏 Wouldn’t seem like good placement. It does remind me of squeezing a Scamp into a large teardrop shape. For extended stays - weeks or longer boondocking - this appeals. But, by the same token, I just don’t see the realistic storage opportunities for stays of that length. You know that bathroom will do double-duty as a closet.

Hey Zack! Good to see you on here. I am starting to get more clarity on the AC placement from comments on this video. It sounds like it is ducted both to the bed and to head level at another place in the trailer. It is now making much more sense to me. Like you, the placement seemed odd to me at first. And yes, by having that nice teardrop shape, there definitely is a sacrifice in terms of space. Thats why I think it is a great shape for a true teardrop (small camper with a galley kitchen), but maybe not the best shape for a 100% indoor functioning trailer.

So Playing with Sticks, as someone who has been in both the T@b 400 and the Aero Teardrops Sellwood trailer, which do you think is a better trailer, quality, features etc., and is there one you'd buy over the other?
@PlayingwithSticks
@PlayingwithSticks Жыл бұрын
When I first read this I thought, that is an easy question. But then the more I thought about it, it really is tough to answer. My gut reaction says Sellwood, but when I think about it more I have equal arguments for the T@B. Basically they both can be customized to meet boondocking needs. They both have options for better suspension and clearance. The big differences are in build materials and layout. Sellwood is built with quality craftsman components, where the T@B is built with more composites. Both have their benefits and drawbacks. The benefit of wood is that it is easier to maintain and repair. The beauty of composites is that they are not prone to water damage. The wood build if properly maintained over the years will last a lifetime. The composite build, I can't tell you. If it was built by someone like Bean or Escapod I would say it can last a lifetime. But I really haven't had the chance to tear down something from NuCamp enough to know what the bones look like. The Sellwood if you do get a leak has the potential of major water damage with all that wood. The T@B 400 if it gets a leak uses Azdel and a number of other composites that will make you glad you don't have wood when that leak is found. They both are quite heavy, with fairly large tongue weights. Really I think it will come down to aesthetics and layout for most people. Now, if I wasn’t using my logical side of my brain…I would choose the Sellwood. It just feels good to me. I can't put my finger on it. But I could easily live in it. The T@B 400 would be a bit harder for me to live in. I even find I can live in the Little Guy Max. It is very similar to the T@B, but something about the layout just feels better to me. Hope this helps a little.
