I have owned 3 of these and I love that they apg with a 6 cylinder tacoma light to tow, set up quickly and have low maintenance , full bathroom (shower only)with toilet and sink. Full stove with oven , 3 way fridge. Sleeps 6! 2500 lbs 300lbs on hitch 19 to tow 26 extended. detachable hitch makes it 17 ft long. Beds are very comfortable, roof air is cold, heater is hot. trailer has equalizer hooks but does not need because of the low profile when towing I got 18 mpg with a 3.5 Tacoma 6 cylinder

This is our third Trailmanor. First was a bit too small, second a bit too big, like Goldilocks this unit is just right. Tows low and light. We tow with 6 Cylinder Toyota 4Runner. Gas mileage is great - 100 miles towing takes about 1 gallon more than regular driving. Love that it is fully hard sided. No sway issues and unit does not get blown around on highway. We have a great weight distributing hitch to keep things level. Plenty of room for the two of us. King bed, full kitchen - stove, fridge, sink, hot water, etc. Newly installed flushing toilet. Couch converts to a small second bed. Lots of storage, wardrobe, etc. Tows at 24' so fits into lots of smaller campsites. Solar panels and Lithium battery make boon docking a breeze. There is a great Trailmanor Fans area on Facebook and a Trailmanor Owners website with tons of resources/information. Factory website is great and they are very responsive when needed.

The overall design of the camper is very good. It will fit in an ordinary garage, so paying storage fees is not necessary. Pulls well when pulling the camper. overall, I am impressed with the camper and the idea of a hard shell instead of a screen.

This is the coolest trailer I have ever seen. It is absolutely functional with everything you could possibly need as well as a very well thought out design and adequate storage. The temperature control is perfect. The AC is freezing the heat almost too hot after 10 minutes like all other trailers have been. The best part is I don’t have to pay storage fees since it fits right into the garage. I was concerned about how it would feel to tow some thing 4000 pounds but I didn’t even know it was back there. It’s size makes it so aerodynamic. Definitely would recommend to anyone looking!

This trailer has been a joy to own. It is very easy to pull. It is easy to set up and fold down. I actually lived in it full time for about a month once and it is fully functional. It didn’t change the gas mileage much, as I listed So It’s doesn’t cost more to use in that regard. The hard sided structure makes it safe when in the wilderness so wildlife aren’t a problem. We were able to sleep 7 women in it on one of our trips even though it’s for up to 6 people.

We bought our 2008 Trailmanor in 2012 and have now owned it for 8 years. I am writing this review as I have accepted an offer for our trailer and another is waiting in case the first falls through. Having second thoughts about selling it since we have had such amazing family experiences with it, but kids are getting older and the reality is that we are using it less and less. Bottom line is that If you are considering one of these you need to go for it, these are amazing travel trailers hidden in a pop-up concept and nothing really compares to them in the US. If you have the space and a big truck, you may be considering other options. In our case, we had a Honda Pilot at the time, no space other than our garage, and wanted to experience travel trailer camping without having to pay storage fees or invest in a bigger truck. After much research, analysis and comparison with other options, we landed on Trailmanor. This is a special kind of trailer, not for everyone for sure. You need to be careful/delicate with it when setting it up and folding it down, or things will break. All that process is a total of 20-30 minutes per camping trip, a small price to pay for all the benefits in my opinion. The convenience to park it in your garage means that you can plan a camping trip in a matter of minutes. It also means that it will last many years and in good shape. Towing it to the destination is a pleasure as it is light and well engineered. Once up at the camp ground, it truly feels like a regular trailer, and at 26 feet, 3 double beds, a complete kitchen and bathroom, it is very comfortable. The third bed in the dining area has served us well in many trips when kids invite a friend or when grandparents go with us. The high step to the bed in the back is easily solved with a small stool that can be also used as an extra chair for the dining area. People literally stop to look at it while we set it up and want to know more about it. We will greatly miss our Trailmanor for sure. I hope this review after 8 years of ownership gives assurance to others looking for alternatives to big travel trailers and have similar objectives/needs as us. My wife and I just talked about possibly getting another one in the future.

My wife and I owned a 2007 Trailmanor 2720SL for about 4 years. We had a Dodge Durango SUV with a 6-cylinder engine and were able to easily tow it all over the southwest. We enjoyed trips to the Northern California, the Sierra Nevada mountains around Mammoth Lakes and Lone Pine, several trips to Colorado, Utah, Nevada, and Arizona. While we did camp with hookups at times, we usually dry-camped. We switched all the incandescent bulbs to LEDs and changed out the 12-volt battery with two 6-volt golf cart deep cycle batteries. We also have a 2000 watt generator that we could use to recharge the batteries when needed. The main advantage of this trailer is obviously that it can be folded down to a much lower profile so it's tows well. However, it does take about 10 minutes to open and close the trailer, so it's not as convenient as a regular trailer. A reasonable trade-off though. We've also rented tent trailers in the past and there's simply no comparison! The only real negative was having to climb up into the bed. Bathroom runs during the night were a bit awkward. A weakness in the original design is the 14" load range C tires which are close to their limits. Running them underinflated could result in tire failure, and this is fairly common. It's necessary to upgrade to 15" tires that are load range D or E. We enjoyed the trailer tremendously but recently purchased a traditional trailer that has a bed in the front with access from each side. Much better for us "older" campers. Our gas mileage suffers tremendously though! We also miss the other campers coming over to watch the 20-foot low profile Trailmanor transform into a 27-foot trailer as we're setting up!

We bought the Trailmanor because of the advertised ease of towing. We found this to be true. It is very easy to tow and it is roomy for any type of camping. It has the convenience of being self contained. We have used it in hot and cold weather conditions as well as rain and it has kept us comfortable in all situations.

We've owned our TrailManor for about four years. We have taken it to the Pacific Northwest, Florida, and multiple locations in between, and all around Iowa. The interior is nicely laid out and provides all the necessities that one could use while camping. The towing of the camper is fantastic. The gas mileage of my vehicle is only a few miles per gallon less than when I'm not towing, and you never really feel it back there. It's unfortunate the TrailManor is no longer made, but you can have mine for $13,900.

Tows like a dream! Not impacted by wind or trucks. I get 21.5 mpg (diesel Grand Cherokee) towing in the mountains, while Trailer Life tested same vehicle and trailer weight in normal trailer, and got 14.5 mpg over same terrain. Sets up in minutes. Lots of windows for good view. Can be towed off-road, even in 4-low on rougher/steep trails. Can go where no full-height trailer can go.

We have really enjoyed our Trailmanor and camped in it at all times of the year. Even at 5 degrees. Or just recently at 98 degrees. We stayed warm in winter and cool in summer. It's very easy to tow and set up. We bought this one because it will sleep 6 but now our grandchildren do not go with us so we are downsizing. Whoever buys this camper will enjoy it. It is in excellent condition.

Would definitely recommend due to it's overall flexibility and ease of storing. Can be put up in two minutes, easy to tow, and king size bed is rare in a trailer of this length.

Trailmanor trailers are unique in their design. Although there are several different models, they all have the same open/close mechanism. When closed, they are second to none in towability. When folded down, the lower profile allows for great gas mileage. The dryweight/GVWR makes for a lot of storage within. The lighter weight also allows for more choices in the tow vehicle. A vehicle with a GVWR of 5000 lbs is able to tow most Trailmanor trailers.

Have enjoyed owning and using this camper. Easy to pull and set up. Quality product that will last a long time. Quality manufacture.

Takes 3 to 5 minutes to set up but wow is it great on mpg.
