Looks can be deceiving! We’ve received fantastic feedback on how incredibly easy it is to use the Strap-Up Bed. The best part? You can park anywhere and still enjoy a perfectly level bed for a great night's sleep.

Crapping in the van is a last choice option. Such a wonderful smell 🤮 Something i just noticed, your cabinet lid is level with the front. In my experience that causes the front of the cabinet to dig into the back of your legs. If you lower the front panel by about 10cm, then create a lip on the lid of that same amount, it makes going to the loo far more comfortable, because the front of the cabinet is lower and stops digging into your legs. Of course, then you need to be careful the lip on the lid against your back, but it is far easier to avoid that than the back of your legs. Just something to consider for future reference. Or not! 😉

I have that same little breville oven. It works an absolute treat. But! They’re a butthole to clean, and they’re going to need an exhaust fan over it, and their ceiling is going to be covered in grease. 😫 I’ve been seeing your videos pop up in random order over the last week or so. I have to say, I don’t like some of your configurations, but this one is fabulous. The fridge access is great and the two drawers above are nicely located. The way the bed flips up is very clever too. Your bamboo finish is especially appealing to me. If i lived in America, i’d be having a chat with you guys.

Bucket - Home Depot Pool Noodle - measure to fit bucket diameter; slice down the middle; secure ends with tape, press down onto rim Regular grocery bags: drape under pool noodle: noodle secures it. Kitty Litter: add a small amount to absorb urine & solids. I usually tied, removed & put aside until next visit to trash area. Less fear of accidental spillage due to absorbent kitty litter. I also found a brand new medical commode at Goodwill for under $10!!! Same set up with grocery bags & kitty litter. Great for Hurricane prep essentials.

Yes, it is held upright until you decide to put it back down.

You can rationalize all you want but any camper for more than one person needs a black tank. Even $100,000+ B classes with cassette toilets are disgusting and a pain to empty.

I agree with the statement that 19/20 times you just find a toilet. I keep a bucket with bags in my van 'just in case'. I'd like to see a video of how this toilet empties.

It empties similarly to a potty-training toilet. We will definitely consider making a video on it!

You still have the opportunity to add upper cabinets to the front of your van! Elevating your bed to ceiling height creates ample space underneath for cabinetry and storage solutions.
