Description
Casita campers hold their value and last a long time. This one is very clean and ready to go. Everything works. I got married and we got a larger camper so we could travel several months of the year. So need to let someone else enjoy this one.
Recommendations:
> A perfect first camper for one or two people. You don’t need a big tow vehicle and if you change your mind, you can probably get most of your money back when you sell it.
> It’s perfect for one person who wants to go far and stay long.
> It’s perfect for two on shorter trips.
> If you have children, get something bigger.
The good:
> no smoking, no pets, no children (it’s real clean)
> fiberglass body including the bottom. [no rot, no leaks]
> torsion bar suspension. [the best]
> 25 gal fresh water tank. [the largest option]
> enclosed fresh water tank. [slow to freeze]
> residential microwave
> no tears or holes in the cushions
> AC is also a heat pump
> awning is in good shape and works perfectly
> power vents in bath and living area
> has installed LevelMate Pro
> full bath
> full size bed
> same width as a full size suv [no big mirrors needed]
> only 2500 lbs - [pulls easy with SUV or regular truck without weight distribution springs]
> tires bought new in 2021
> new fitted cover for storing it outside.
The Bad:
> I think Casita’s are designed for normal size people. If you are over 6’ tall or extra wide, you would have problems moving around in this camper.
> they market these for two adults and one child. That works only if you are willing to convert the full size bed into a table every single day. Most people do just what I did; keep the full size bed as a bed all the time.
Issues:
> refrigerator works great on propane only.
> the full size bed was always used as a bed so parts to make it a table were lost before I got it. The parts (2 table base and one table pedestal for under $50) can be ordered from Casita but the side table is perfect for one or two people]
