They were down in Moab at the EJS last year... Look nice but as with any OEM product, it was a little (or a lot) out of my price range. You can get a lot more for what that trailer runs...

I scored one last spring that had been from dealer to dealer and they REALLY wanted to get rid of it.
We've found it to be a good size for just my wife and I but with a kid on the way, that may change.
The trailing arm suspension is incredible in motion and there is quite a lot of space for storage when it's a folded up. However, as with anything stock, there's always room for improvement.
The locking half door is redundant as the top overlaps it in the closed position so a little trim is needed and as it comes with an inverter and power hook up it still fell short with no battery. I added that as well as a solar panel/controller to keep it topped off while out in the sticks.
Overall, for the bargain we got on it, it's worth it. I say the price is about 3k to high as is.

How easy is it to set up? I read one reviewer who thought the top was too heavy for one person to lift comfortably. I was also a bit concerned with all the snaps, are they a pain or?

Saw a few in person, they are okay, they are a bit overpriced for what they do (or don't do) the best bet is buying one with the Jeep and finance them together, if you're looking after the fact, go with another trailer.
These little legs would never hold me and the misses.
Pintle hitch is nice...
The inside is nothing more than a bed, a table and little bench/couch.
Is this a mini fridge? I never thought to check...

I won a Extreme Trail camper from the dealer. It is very sturdy and well built and luckly, the color matches our Jeep. The bed is queen size and includes a pad but we put an air mattress down before our sleeping bags. It has storage under the couch and in a small cabinet. It can be plugged into 120VAC and provides 12VDC also. It weights 1050 lbs empty and tows very well behind the Jeep. I would not have purchased it for the price they wanted for it, but by winning it, my wife and I are very happy with it. Sure beats sleeping in a tent.
One person can not open or close the top, it weights too much.

Thanks for confirming that the top is too heavy for one to handle. I'm getting close to retirement, and am looking forward to some long road/fishing trips, most of which would be solo, and was thinking about getting one of these.

How did you fix the door so it would work with the top closed?
Where did you put the battery? I take it a gel? I was thinking of a red top.
What solar panel did you go with? and how did you set it up?
DId you put any outside LED's?
