In the world of caravans, we often face the dilemma of choosing between comfort and convenience.
Large, luxury trailers may offer all the features you want, but at the expense of fuel efficiency and ease of maneuvering. Meanwhile, smaller, more basic models may be easier on the wallet, but offer less comfort. However, one company decided to face this challenge.
Founded in 1983, TrailManor has gained recognition in the U.S. RV industry as a compelling combination of utility and luxury. Their patented design allows for lightning-fast assembly and disassembly, allowing you to switch from road mode to camping mode in just two minutes, even in difficult weather conditions.
Design and Construction
The series of trailers is distinguished by a unique design, combining the features of tourist trailers with fixed walls with campers equipped with retractable frames. The use of laminated closed-cell foam between the aluminum layers makes the structure extremely light and at the same time durable. All elements, from the walls and floors to the artificial marble countertops, have been designed to make the trailer as light as possible while maintaining durability. 
This innovative design allows TrailManor trailers to be towed with a standard SUV or minivan, providing a significant performance advantage over their heavier counterparts. The lightweight design also makes storage easier, eliminating the need for additional storage fees that often come with larger trailers.
The smallest model is 7.6 meters long when camping and 5.5 meters long when on the road, while the largest model reaches 9.4 meters and 7.3 meters respectively. The trailers have been designed to maximize space and offer a surprisingly large area when unfolded. For example, the largest model, the 3124 series, sleeps up to six people comfortably, offering two king-size beds, a fold-out dinette, a fully equipped kitchen, plenty of storage space and a dry bathroom with a soaking tub.
Going from road mode to camping mode isn't just about developing the exterior, but also about customizing the interior. The modular internal layout requires some assembly, such as placing insulating panels or assembling cabinets. Although it may seem complicated at first glance, TrailManor offers video tutorials that guide owners through the process step-by-step, making it easier over time.
The cheapest trailer model starts at just over $32,000
Quite an interesting solution combining convenience and comfort on the caravan market, eliminating the need to make significant compromises. The result of this approach is a truly unique type of trailer, offering quick and simple assembly and spacious living conditions.
