The thing to do check it out fully. Get the present owner to take you through it step by step. Give it a good inspection before you commit to purchase it. The design looks ok in the video besides the issues he has. This one may have been assembled correctly.

Some the gear coming out of China is good but other stuff poor quality. You really need to look it over. The only way to get a good camping trailer is pay the big bucks for them. What is you budget for the trailer?

I just read an article on this camper and the guy that sells them. DONT TOUCH IT. The thing will fall apart and he will not honor any warranty. the article was from the MagCampertraileraustralia issue 28. title of the article is "The chinese paradox". its a good one to read

For the price I reckon it isn't too bad. The scratches and stuff probably happened in transit, as for the mess inside well thats part and parcel of a new camper. I had some of that stuff in my 45 grand KK. ( grand for this I say not a bad buy for a hard floor camper so what if you got to spend another 2 grand? All the other stuff like leaky hoses etc well that can happen in any camper. I suppose there is always something is all campers that isn't quite right and could be done better.
