      Closet space is the cabinets above the bed. We could even add soft bag between the lights on the other side. For extra storage.
      Cooktop is potable induction like many RVs this size so you don’t lose countertop space and as important the ability to cook outside.

    Got a few great features, but I'd go crazy in that. No room for one person to turn around much less 2; no room for more lights, talk about claustrophobic.
    No step for that very uncomfortable looking bed- (where to put your keys, a book, a drink while you read? No pull down shelf for that? Did I miss it? ) that you couldn't raise up in, or room for one in the floor. Why not have one in the floor cabinet that rolls out? Your use of the word massive made me laugh- even for a van. The big shower is still too small for any person of size. 2 feet? People should measure & try to imagine showering in that. That's a child's toilet too, almost to the floor! It's much smaller than many I've seen.
    Should be a clothes rod in the shower that swivels out, so it's a closet when not in use, there's so little space for clothes- extra covers, or anything, no room or space for adding shelves anywhere.
    Just not a good use of space in my opinion, great finishes, the front was nice. Maybe just different strokes for different folks.

    • @nomadrvs
      @nomadrvs Před 2 měsíci +2

      Mostly different strokes for different folks. I mentioned there are toilet options. That’s just the toilet on hand for the video.
      There is a step to get into the comfortable bed. I like your idea of an additional shelf in the bed area for a phone or something.
      This is a spec build that we can add some stuff to or the buyer can add some stuff to make it tailored to them. Not a custom that is already tailored to the client.
