@@txengineer Thanks for the feedback! With 2 dogs, we were able to put one seat down but it’s really wedged in there and not ideal at all. Definitely doable in a pinch though. Kinda pushes against the upholstery.

Yeah. It was a total deal breaker for me. Thanks for checking the vid out!

I find the large opening for entry and exit and loading stuff inside and the adjustable inflatable floor to be the biggest advantages. My older dog and my smaller dog would never make it inside a shiftpod on their own.

It’s the aurora lighting system that came with the Kickstarter early backers. And the Acacia inflatable lighting tube. All were early perks the campaign.

Haven’t made a new video for it yet, but I’ve been using it daily in the house ever since and 2 camp trips and it worked like a champ. It’s just massive is my only downside so far. And the freezer function does take a big toll on internal battery life.

Happy to help! There will be more videos featuring the tent and other camping adventures in the near future. Stay tuned. And I think you will love the tent.

@@GetOutSmore Thank you because I'm looking for a tent that is easy to put up, fast and durable. I will be living in Hawaii when I purchase it. I plan on camping every weekend. It will just stay in my van until the next weekend when I use it again.

It does indeed! We tested it in the pool overnight in this video. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/aapil66k1besc2g.htmlsi=eU97FbBZRGb1GOuZ

We had to! And I’m sure you’re going to love it. It’s quality and worth the wait. Thank you for the kind words

Definitely a concern of mine too. I don’t love making big purchases unless I trust the longevity. Time will tell how truly durable it is. I will keep making content and report back on any issues. Acacia customer service has been a delight to deal with so far thankfully. I believe and hope that they’ll stand by their product.

Please do. I am interested in it because of all the shade structures it comes with, the square open door, and the big windows. For now, my shiftpod and gazelle t4 are my go-to's. ^_^

So the inflatable floor is to insulate? I own am RBM Cuboid and I use floor pads and a tarp, and my set up is never cold when I run heat. Interesting that it could float? Game changer.

@@gregm9638 It’s more to give you a comfortable, cushioned adjustable floor no matter what your terrain is like at camp. I haven’t tested it in colder weather yet, but we do plan to over the next couple months. I’ve never seen the cuboid before, but it looks interesting. The inflatable floor is definitely the differentiator here. It’s beyond unique.

@GetOutSmore RBM makes a super industrial 4 season tent and their stove is really well designed. It's not cheap but if you take care of it l, it would last a decade, plus it is great in the old. It has an inside linner so no condensation build up. They use rebar for stakes, they provide screw in tent spikes for ice and they include a really good repair kit. They mention it's a sauna tent lol and just by accident I got it to 100 degrees by not knowing how to dampen the stove. Great Channel btw. I'm subscribing.

So they can scratch very easily. At least my gray one did. Kickstarters are getting these little dust covers that cover the entire unit that will solve them, but Anker has said they aren’t going to produce them for individual sale. So I’d recommend a cover of some sort if you’re taking it out into the wilderness. They better hope someone makes an aftermarket one for the fridges because I definitely would recommend them. There have also been reports on social media groups of lids bubbling up, but mine hasn’t sat outside exposed to the sun. You’d likely want to keep them in the shade. Anker has also been quick to send out replacement lids and people are even doing creative diy lid covers with adhesive materials that make the fridges look awesome. Outside of superficial stuff though, I don’t see why they wouldn’t be durable. It seems like a fine build quality to match the price point so far. I’ll report back if anything changes though.

@@GetOutSmore Yeah, Mine would just sit still in the back of my Bronco, but when off roading and moving around, I'd want it to be pretty durable (even tho it'll be strapped down. It's a bummer it doesn't fit in the long way, that was the ideal position for me.

@@KhoiCPhish you and me both. I was bummed.

I get it! Price and Anker branding was what sold me, but the non-removable divider and large size may be a hassle for some. I really misjudged the size when I backed the project. The Glacier is more attractive size-wise for me and may be worth the price premium for some.

@cruisin4beaches I can't justify the Glacier price after adding wheels and the battery anymore. This is more than I paid for my state of the art fridge. The Ryobi is decent but won't charge as it's plugged in. A major deal breaker, that's just poor design.

Thanks so much for the kind words and feedback. I’m glad it helped. Enjoy your tent. I’m making a video of the floor floating in my pool soon and then a camp video.

Thanks! Basically, it was a Mabett table that came with a plastic white cutting board and a friend who does wood working as a hobby made me the table to the same spec. It appears that table is no longer available, but it is rebranded under the IAG line on Amazon (and probably their site as well). Thanks for watching. Trying to get a channel going so I appreciate the comment as well. Not an affiliate link, but this is essentially the same table on Amazon. www.amazon.com/IAG-I-Line-Tailgate-Integrated-Cutting/dp/B0C54F7HCV/ref=mp_s_a_1_2_sspa?crid=ZJNNBAHKVURM&keywords=iag+tailgate+table+cutting+board&qid=1690246200&sprefix=iag+tailgate+table+cutting+board%2Caps%2C162&sr=8-2-spons&ufe=app_do%3Aamzn1.fos.ac2169a1-b668-44b9-8bd0-5ec63b24bcb5&sp_csd=d2lkZ2V0TmFtZT1zcF9waG9uZV9zZWFyY2hfYXRm&psc=1

@@GetOutSmore Thanks for the reply! it looks sturdy and the wooden cutting board is a great mod to it, gonna have to look into that!

@@savvylildancer thanks! It was an easy install too. No drilling

I’m going to do a follow up with that configuration. I’ve been thinking of that as a solution as well. Not sure yet with the uneven floor of the lower cargo area.

Great price! You really can’t beat that. The EcoFlow is $130 for prime day more and that’s not including a battery! And to a lesser extent, the handle and wheels. I know not everyone needs those. I think you’ll love it especially for your use case. You paid barely more than us kickstarters and all we got was a cover (still waiting) and an extra xt60 to 12v charging cable for the battery. We just got dinged $120 on shipping which was unnecessary IMO and negated the early bird pricing deal. Lol Free shipping makes that Prime membership a bargain.

Probably a good call if you don’t absolutely need dual zone. I wish I realized when I ordered. lol Awesome fridge so far, just brutal when you’re tight on storage space. The smaller ones seem awesome still. I’d probably have gone with the medium or the Ecoflow Glacier had I realized.

@@GetOutSmore smallest it's too small for me, and this is a complete overkill. Medium it is, drinks to the deep side and snacks in the shallow side.

I got the 40 and I absolutely love it so glad I purchased it I also got the Anker 757 both are great additions to my camping gear

@@winstonhowl5473 how long can the 757 keep the fridge going?

@@makatron I'm sorry but I haven't ran that test I use my 757 when I go to the park for a car shows so that I can still watch football and I use my fridge to keep drinks so I really haven't had a chance to give it the test

No need to apologize. All feedback is welcome!

Glad you enjoyed it!

Not sure what your cargo space is like. I was really hoping it would fit longways but definitely not unless I remove the seat which I can’t. Thank goodness it fits width wise though.

@@GetOutSmore I can let the seats down because it’s only me 99% of the time.

@@goneoutside1011 That’s good! My seats don’t fold completely flat in the Bronco unfortunately. It would work but be really awkward.

I think it’s smarter to just get an external power station if the battery winds up costing $250-$300 because it will be so much more versatile. But down the line, if there’s a decent sale, definitely. Or if space isn’t an option. But for this test, it did run on battery all night and didn’t make it through the night with one zone being in freezer mode. I will try it again to see if it’s a repeatable issue though.

Glad you enjoyed. I was debating between the 2 sizes, but I think you can’t go wrong either way. The build quality on these are great! If you want to see more, feel free to subscribe. I appreciate you checking out the video.

@@GetOutSmore I suscribed 😉Can’t wait to see you test it on water !

Awesome. Glad it helped you make a decision! You’ll love it! Stay tuned for updates when the inflatable floor comes.

Yeah. I caught that trend as the day went on I was showing more watt input. But it never showed much because it was all going into the battery and keeping the battery at 99% all day long. Thanks for the tips. My expectation is Solar will keep it topped up the first day the whole day, depletes over night, then it will work hard recharging the next day. It is a 100 watt solar input port according to Anker. I was using a 120 watt panel. I will let it get low and see if it’s getting enough with just one panel. It’s supposed to charge up in 3.6 hours via solar which isn’t bad at all.

It’s a pretty realistic test unless you can say you consistently camp in places with zero clouds in the sky ever. And then, I’d love to go there. lol It wasn’t even hazy. In many areas like back east, this would be considered a perfectly sunny day. But I do intend to do more videos. Mainly with both solar panels to give it a better shot. Thought it should be noted that the battery didn’t make it overnight from 100% without the temps starting to climb slightly early the next morning. Luckily, the ice never thawed so it wasn’t too much of an issue, but 9 degrees was still higher than I’d prefer. Appreciate the feedback regardless!

Thanks! I'd love to get my hands on the EcoFlow. this fridge is awesome so far, it's just massive for my setup. lol Did you have yours set to fridge and freezer? I think the second panel would help a lot to get the maximum solar input for recharging. Also, Vegas temps will really put it to the test. camping in cooler climates should help.

Agreed 💯

Thanks for watching!

Thanks! That was actually me. I was low on space exporting it on my iPad at the time.

I uploaded it again in 4K. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/d9CFicmqyL_el5s.html

Thank you so much! That means a lot. I may get more into it. Gotta start somewhere right? I just checked out your channel. Looks awesome. I subscribed.

It has 2 years full device and 3 years on the compressor.

2 years are not long enough, if 5 years like dometic would be great...thank you for the responded.

@@qball2000able Yeah. We’ll see I guess. I know Anker has epic customer service so I don’t think they’ll leave us high and dry. And the compressor has 3 years at least which is the important part. I’d always love a longer warranty of course.

Thank you for this detailed review. Fitting the cooler in ur trunk was a big help. I could see what I should expect before buying.

I was waiting for any video on it. I know it runs long but hopefully it gives you peace of mind. I’ll update with how it performs soon!

@@GetOutSmore looking forward to your testing. I got the Ecoflow glacier but I want the Anker 53 liter as well . I have a 19 liter acopower that runs on a battery I have a video on that one that’s not in their favor.

Looking forward to the performance testing as well. Double door arrangement really sold me. Should definitely help keep the frozen stuff frozen since you probably won't be opening the door as much as you would on the fridge section.

Justme77 lol yeah. Didn't expect that at all.

Johnny Plooms Kratom glad you guys enjoyed. Such a cool random experience.
