    I’m looking at having a opus 4 made. Do you reckon if I took it out camping with out the hubby. I alone could pack it back up by myself? Totally love the remote control.

    Hey! The only part of packing up you might struggle with is pushing the front bed back over. It can be done just needs a little strength behind it. Also having two people to latch it down when packing up is always helpful. I’ve set it up on my own but never packed down completely on my own. Hope this helps :)

    It really is a great camper and so easy to set up and pack down. You could even try to hire one if there are any available in your area and test it out for a weekend? Happy camping!

    Hi Lawrence, we have actually done both the set up and pack down in the rain and wind and found it quite easy. The purpose of the video was just to show the process slowed down as all others I could find (when we were looking to buy) were all sped up and didn’t show it step by step, or with only one person doing it on their own. Totally up to you what your purchase and what suits you best- we’re just sharing our experience :) hope you find something that works for you!

    Thanks for the comparison. We are in exactly the same situation, deciding between those two campers. I’ve heard however that the opus OP4 beds are small, or short, and not a full queen size. What can you tell me about that? Regards, Paul.

  • @rmcgill13
    @rmcgill132 жыл бұрын

    I went and looked at it, they are "RV" sized queens, and the one bed by the dinette as extension cushions to make it a full King size.

  • @aussiecampers6139
    @aussiecampers61392 жыл бұрын

    It’s a hard devious hey! They are smallish queen beds, however the bed my partner and I sleep on have an extension so we actually sleep north south vs the east west as the beds fold out. With the extension it actually makes it a king bed, so super roomy. If you check out some of our camping vlogs you will see what I mean :) hope this helps!

    Great question! We really are. I think the only thing we are missing is an AC. We live in Queensland so super hot here and while we’ve only been camping in cooler months we would love to do more and not be restricted by cooler months of the year. The camper itself is great though and are so happy with it!

    It is an option from OPUS. Simple design it pushes a roller into place up against the tire. Not sure how it would work with other trailers though.

    Have a chat to set up camp if you’re wanting new, as we bought ours second hand. Second hand was a great option for us as we didn’t feel we needed new for how often we can use it (around 6 times a year)
