my old man had one of thier campertrailers for about 6 months

was bloody hard to set up and the so called galvanised trailer must have been done here in geelong because it was begining to get bad surface rust within 3 weeks of getting it

Due to that i would look else where oh and from memory there was an issue with the load rating as well but not sure what it was

Another company that you might want to consider is Dingo trailers.
I have no idea if they are still around, i did have a look at one many moons ago. I am not sure if they are still around

Off road my ****

Nothing off road about them, and the wheel bearings are a sealed unit so you can't replace them or grease them yourself. They are a tarted up prefab box trailer, nothing more.

Why not ring a caravan club and ask someone there if they know of them or any of their members have one.

why does he need to do that ???

we have enough people on here that have had experience with or have had family that have had experience with them or even know what are issues with them

I for one will not recomend that brand to any person

I am how ever waiting on an e-mail from my old man with the list of things that most companies fix under warranty but theise jokers didnt warrant

Choice. Caravan clubs would know what works and what doesn't. If they have any members that own one he will get the info (good or bad) first hand.
