Pros & Cons after 12 Days in an Airstream Nest (Unbiased RV Review)

We spent 12 days in an ‪@Airstream-Inc‬ Nest and we want to tell you about the Pros & Cons. We here at Does Size Matter are used to a pretty big RV, but since we are RV Sometimers and we store our RV while going back to our home base, we rented an Airstream Nest through the RVezy rental platform. We wanted something light that could be towed by our ‪@Jeep‬ Grand Cherokee and something unique with a bathroom. We had to have a bathroom. The Airstream Nest was the perfect fit but as it is with all RVs, nothing is perfect. We share all of our pros and cons from great tow-ability, fantastic windows, lights and awning, a seamless screen door and lots of storage to a difficult bed, poor hot water, a tall toilet and weird cabinet locks. In the end we had a great experience and were so glad to have given such a small trailer, 16', a try. We made it work for 12 days and we know There Is an RV for Everyone!
We filmed our 12 days of pros and cons in an Airstream Nest in July of 2019 while traveling through the province of British Columbia.

    I have watched literally thousands of RV reviews...this review is hands down the best I have ever seen heard. Intelligent, thoughtful, practical and well delivered. No screeching, squawking high pitched voices... the best insight as to why a bath sink is necessary when boondocking... you’re delivery appeared for all the world to be unrehearsed and natural, unheard of in the RV review world on KZread. Congrats... look forward to more.

    Awesome review! I really appreciate your attention to detail with your pros and cons and your descriptions of how seemingly minor things can have a major impact on the livability of a trailer. For example, at a glance, I would just think “what a beautiful faucet” - not realizing that the fact that it is so close to the sink cover or that it does not swivel would be such a pain! Thank you for providing your real world Nest experience with us.

    "Walking through a kindergarten field trip..." Delayed laughter here. Great dead-pan comic timing! LOL! Gotta disagree about the sink in the bathroom...it'd be in the way for someone my size and make an already small bathroom uncomfortably tiny. I'd just put some water in a coffee mug to brush my teeth if the sink was full of dishes. LOL!

    I have a tiny bit of experience with an on demand hot water deal on an overland trip and I found that if I just barely turned it on to a tiny trickle, just enough for the water pump to switch on and for the coil to heat up, I could “prime the system” with very little water waste. Might be worth a try the next time you encounter one. Nice video!

    I agree about the lack of bathroom sink. One tip regarding dirty dishes in the sink... use a small(ish) plastic bin to hold all the dirty dishes out of the sink until such time that you decide to wash the dirty dishes. The bin can live on the opposite counter or under the sink or just on the floor. If you find the right bin, it could double as a step for the commode.

    Hello from Alaska!!! I just bought a Nest 16U and I saw your first video and was thrilled to see that you did this follow up video. I'll be traveling in my Nest full time this fall for 6 months. You brought up several items to my attention I hadn't thought about, like the sink faucet. I always like a pull down spray faucet so I will need to look at changing that out. I'm an RV park kinda person so I'm thinking the single holding tank won't be as big an issue for me, because honestly that's just gross. Loved your review and cheers to your happy life!!!

    Hey there, so cool you have the Nest and it will be so much fun for you. We are happy to hear we could help you out. Watch out for that screen door too, it can sneak up on you haha The beauty of RVs is you can find ways to make little changes that will suit your wants, needs and priorities and get it working just the way you like. Hopefully we can get back on the road in the fall too. Who knows maybe we will cross paths. Give us a shout if we do. Congrats on your purchase and safe travels to you. Thanks for watching.

    I agree that airstream needs to improve their game in a few areas in both the small and large rv's. Especially the upper kitchen cabinets, faucet and bathroom in the nest. I somehow feel cheated when there's flimsy or "cheap" shortcuts taken. Your reviews are fair and spot on. 😉

    I am 5' 3" tall so I normally never worry about how high the ceiling is, I was impressed with storage in the nest. I do like a permanent bed. As a solo camper even with the cost this unit is high on my list. But I do own a tow vehicle rated for 8100 lbs tow max so I keep my options open. Good observation on the freezer department. Hope airstream views your video and corrects these areas.

    Glad you liked it. If we are taking off road capability out of it, hands down the Nest. We like the decor and function better in the Nest. We also like that it is fiberglass. It suits are style and the way we use an RV better BUT that is a really simplified answer. Each of us has different wants, needs and priorities that have to come into account when determining priorities and what we are willing to give to get. We have some decision making tools coming out soon that could help you out more so stay tuned for those. The other thing to take into account is that AS is no longer building the Nest so if that is the one you want and you find one keep that detail in mind. Good luck, thanks for watching and let us know if we can help any more and for sure let us know if you make a decision. We love hearing how it all goes.

Why wouldn’t an RV manufacturer want their newest RV to be seen on the road and get a real life review? You could put a disclaimer at the beginning of the video-the rv was lent to us by winnebago (ex) but our views are our own.
