Post by: Madcat on November 02, 2015, 01:33:21 PM
Hello

I'm researching our next camper and was wondering what brand/model camper has the biggest hard floor area once flipped open?

Thanking you in advance.

Biggest hardfloor area??....Cub Spacevan.
Some of the other cubs have good floor area, too.

I believe the Pioneer Onyx and Gascoyne are also pretty big.

I would have thought they would be all pretty much the same........maybe I thought wrong.

 They might be about the same but I think whereabouts the doors are positioned may influence that "useable" floor space.

We love our Aussie Swag but others prefer the KK because of the door position, I'm told it allows for kids bunks etc.

That is how I was told pretty much word for word. The spacevan is huuuge.

We own a CUB SPACEMATIC the camper is ten feet long when folded up for traveling, opened up it's 20 feet long, the top transforms to a ten foot floor space bige enough to install bunk beds on one side and still have space left over. The space still available in the trailer with the Queens size bed is still quiet large and does not intrude to the floor space at all.
On top of all that, we have an annex which when attached with walls gives an area of 8 feet wide by 20 feet long.
How much space do you really need ?

I'm after enough room to roll out 3 swags for overnight stops while traveling, or for rough weather. Normally my oldest two sleep outside in their swags, but last time we went camping the weather turned nasty and had to squeeze them into our current small soft floor camper, it didn't really work that well.

I'd say they fit into a SPACEMATIC though could be a little cramped, pending on the size of the swags. I do know, not all swags are created equal

You might be better looking at a Toy Hauler type, with a slight mod you could have a hard floor in the rear tent section of one of these Quokka  thingos http://macropodcampers.com.au/ (http://macropodcampers.com.au/)
