well, hele yeah.
Looks great! I just wish the cost to ship to Canada wasn't so high, get killed with border fees. Maybe buy one next time I visit my friend in NY state.
@@Monarch67 agreed! We’ve explored all options via shipping to Canada..
this looks really great if it fits in my RAV4 which I'm pretty sure But man I just don't think I can let myself spend that much for it It looks great
@@carolmaplesden916 thanks! Here’s a video walkthrough of a RAV4 if you want to check it out: ua-cam.com/video/yfaiW4464_Y/v-deo.htmlfeature=shared
Looks great! It would be helpful if unpacking or packing process is shown.
Here you go! ua-cam.com/video/tzmtEHE6oe0/v-deo.html
How wide is the single/solo? I'm curious if it'll fit in my 2005 Honda Element with one of the rear seats intact. Thanks!!
24" wide!
I wish the top frame telescoped. Would be perfect for my Promaster City passenger if I didn't have to use the full length of the bed. Great looking product for everyone else though.
Height is adjustable. Is the length adjustable, too?
You bet! ua-cam.com/video/6GaUzh9bBcY/v-deo.html
Both products are way over priced.
This is exactly what I wanted to see!! These demo videos definitely made this an easy purchase.
Glad they are helpful, and thank you for supporting our small business :)
I have a 2017 Lexus Gx 460 with captain seats and I've been looking for something like this but I'm a little confused. Would I have to take the captain seats out? Thanks!
Nope! Just fold the captain seat flat and the front/longer set of extended legs with the Hele Box will drop in the footwells of the rear seats/behind the center console.
We like it where do we find it to purchase and how much?
@@TroutHog-w4p check it out on the website heleoutdoors.com
How can we order this one from site . It’s not very clear on your website
Can we adjust the length too
@@ksbajwa1922 yes you can!
Do Honda element pls :3
This is the absolute PERFECT product. Everything I've wanted but unable to find.... 1) ability to adjust leg height...so I can have different heights depending on what I need to store underneath 2) ability to adjust legs independently!!!...so when you are parked on a nonlevel surface...you can adjust legs independently to have a flat sleeping surface. 3) adjustable length!!! This is an awesome feature so I can fit more stuff! [I'm not a minimalist] 4) being able to get to items under the bed from the top!! 5) ability to easily take off the front part...so can access spare tire if needed (which is under the floor between the front and 2nd row seats) 6) Easy to store away in a closet!!! 7) Not heavy!! You have truly made the perfect product. I've seen many comments about the price. I have to say....for all of the features this has, I think the price is on point for a quality product. We are too used to cheap products made overseas. We need more quality products from small businesses in the US. It is an investment, but I think it is truly worth every penny....it literally has everything I've been looking for. I'm saving up to get one. For anyone reading this comment...I am not being paid for this comment. I JUST found this product on a facebook ad and started investigating it. I don't know anyone at the company and I don't own the product yet...but am so EXCITED to save up to get it.
Thank you so much for the kind words!! Please send us a message via the Contact Us form on the website so we can return the favor :)
Can we adjust the length also
You bet! ua-cam.com/video/6GaUzh9bBcY/v-deo.html
Will it fit without removing the bottom seat cushion?
You'll want to remove the bottom seat unless you use the shorter configuration 5'6: ua-cam.com/video/6GaUzh9bBcY/v-deo.html
Will it hold cargo boxes on the topper and strap them down via straps?
Absolutely! You can use it as a stackable storage system and use the rails of the frame to attach your straps
Any update on the current production run? Will orders be shipping in November? Any chance of an earlier shipping date? 😀
No change in timeline, pre-orders still set to ship out the second half of November!:)
Love this idea!! And the Kevin McAllister gif 😋
Thank you!
What about those of us who don't have 6' of length? I'm a Honda Element owner and other than perhaps laying the front passenger seat back and placing the bed over it, 6' length isn't going to work. I use a 69" Coleman cot currently.
Our updated version comes with an adjustment to 5'6! Learn more here: ua-cam.com/video/6GaUzh9bBcY/v-deo.html
I wonder if it's possible to build hinges along the middle so it can be folded in half to use one back seat?
You can configure it as a stackable storage system in your trunk (if that's what you are referring to!): ua-cam.com/video/izhX2ep_k6Y/v-deo.html
I'd love to see one in a Mazda CX-5. I am currently using just an Exped Megamat with no platform and it hits the center console/armrest since this is what I call a "baby SUV" (2016). I still got a great sleep but I've been looking at the Hele Box Solo for months and wondering just how it would need to be configured. Wish I could volunteer my CX-5 to demo but I'm in So Cal:).
Send us a message through the contact us page on our website (heleoutdoors.com) - we can get you over some specs to measure and confirm a fitment. If your megamat is 72" long and its bumping into the armrest, then you'd likely need to use this configuration: ua-cam.com/video/6GaUzh9bBcY/v-deo.html
@@HeleOutdoors Thanks, I just watched that video the other day and thought the same. Watching your latest video now which has also been super helpful!
@@mkatyo Love to hear it! Let us know what else you'd like to see 🤙
I'd like to see this set up in a new Toyota Sienna. Is this adjustable length?
You can adjust the length in this configuration: ua-cam.com/video/6GaUzh9bBcY/v-deo.html Hoping to get more "How it Fits" series type videos out in the future, the Sienna is certainly on the list.
@@HeleOutdoors thank you for the feedback. It's an important question in regard to the 2021-2025 Sienna because the center row seats are designed to stay in the vehicle and we lose about 2' of space behind the front seats as a result. I'm fortunate in that I'm not tall, I'm 5'4", so having a great platform that's about 68"-70" is perfect for me. The vast majority of platforms and cots are 75" to 82" and not a good fit for these vans without ripping out those center row seats and the hassle that comes with it.
@@edburck Thank you for the clarification! Please send an email to stoked@heleoutdoors.com and I can help send over measurements you can take to confirm a fit :)
In the 3rd gen Runner do you have to remove any part of the back seats to get it to work? Thanks!
Great questions! Just one of the bottom/flip-forward seats - it's impossible to get 6ft in your 4Runner if you leave them in there (unless you're willing to sacrifice headroom and don't mind your front seats being pushed forward). Here's a video for reference: ua-cam.com/video/EVp4ntgwXS0/v-deo.html
The wider side of my 60/40 split is behind the driver side. Worried that my driver seat would need to be too far forward to accommodate the Hele frame…?
What make/model/year vehicle are your referring to?
@@HeleOutdoors I got the answers from you thru email, thank you.
How well would this work in a new Sienna? I noticed no mention of that model anywhere on the website.
On the fitment list under "mini-vans" it should work with any mini van that has 6ft of length and a relatively flat floor space when seats are stowed
I pre-ordered mine ~ can't wait!
Thank you for the support! We're excited for you to receive yours 🙂
Lexus RX350? Cost?
Check out the website: heleoutdoors.com for our fitment list & pricing ($399) info!!
Got any friends with a Mazda Cx5? I'd love to see how the single size with the stubby legs fits my SUV:).
Hopefully get our hands on one in the future!
If I order today, when can I expect the item to arrive? (Website mentions back orders but date is vague). Thanks
We sold out WAY faster than anticipated, which resulted in the back orders. They'll ship out by late November, more details will be provided as we get closer to the date 🤙
the rei product you just need to make a front box to get it level. what is not mentioned for either one is the finished dimensions.
Check out the website for more info on the dimensions! Also, not sure what you mean by making a box - are you talking about making a box out of wood or is there some configuration with the Trailgate I'm not familiar with? Thanks!
Glad I met y’all in Overland Expo Mountain West. This would probably save me thousands of dollars for a rooftop tent.
thank you for stopping by :)
When will these be available??? You have really thought it all through ❤
Pre orders are going live on Friday! Subscribe on our website for updates :)
About how long is it after you have removed that section? I have a Honda Element and would love to be able to leave that section up, making it easier to set up once I swing my seats up to the side. Is that front section now adjustable in length? I have a limitation of about 69"/70" with my passenger seat pushed forward. I last heard you were working on a shorter version, but one that's adjustable with push pins makes a lot more sense in case I ever had someone around 6' tall.
36.5 Inches!
Someone just posted a review on our website with a picture of this configuration in a Honda Element - check it out :)
Wow! What for a great 👍 idea, I love it! Thanks for the helpful Video.
Thanks for that great new Video, I just love the new Design with the 2nd holes on the end! I can't wait to get the new Design for me. 😊
You bet! Thanks for tuning in :)
Can't you design the long bars with push pin holes, so that front section doesn't need to be removed? Use a concept similar to what you do on the legs to raise and lower them. Place the holes 1" apart so the length can be adjusted from 6' downward. I don't like the idea of leaving those bars exposed to the passenger seat in my Element, and there's not 6" of room to add that piece you removed unless the bed were to fit and be placed over the seat if it's been fully reclined.
@@robinwilson8435 Using telescopic method laterally would cause a significant slope/bend in the frame and require thicker/wider tubing. We thought about going this route, but didn't want to compromise the strength of the system
Please , can you do mini van ?
Yes! We need to get our hands on one to film.
Ok , would the Hele box work in Honda odyssey? I’m actually looking for some thing that will clear the middle seats when they’re folded over so I don’t have to take them out.
Should work great as long as you have 6ft of relatively flat surface in your van :)
I really, really want to love this product (and I do like it). But having to remove the rear seats is a deal-breaker.
I love this! I will be changing my setup. I took a work bench 25" x 72" and adjustable from 27" to 42" but very heavy!
❤
❤
Do you have any plans to make the frame adjustable for length? I would like to have 5’ to 6’ choices ♥️ I love this! Good work!!
This is in the works. In the meantime, you can adjust the length with this configuration: ua-cam.com/video/6GaUzh9bBcY/v-deo.html
Well, rats! It’s sold out 😢 I guess I’ll keep an eye out for the next pre-order 😊
Should be live by early next week! Subscribe on the website and we'll send you an email once its up!
@@HeleOutdoors perfect 😊 I signed up for email alerts.
A great design innovation would be if the Hele Box length c/b made adjustable, say to fit horizontally across the bed of your SUV, or make more room if necessary. Yeah, some of us are that short LOL!
Thank you for the feedback & tuning in! The Hele Box can be used in "half mode" to accomplish what I think you are looking for/be used as a stackable storage system in your trunk. I'm going to be releasing a 'configurations' video in the coming weeks. Stay tuned :)
@@HeleOutdoors OK I'm referring to the length, not the width. The halving the width is cool. I look forward to your new vid. Cheers.
@@darkkstar5647 You bet! It's the length that can be split in half - not the width
Can the longer legs be even longer? I’d like to use in an old VW bus. Could I drop them in to some PVC pipe?
@@cindybaker8482 How much length do you need? The short legs can extend up to just under 14"
just signed up for the email for the next production run!
Woohoo! Thank you for the support :)
Great to see the innovation. Not great seeing REI "acquiring" ideas for product design. I don't buy much from REI anymore and I'm happy to see any competition they have. Your Helebox is more of a KISS (keep it simple...) design which is better IMHO.
Thank you for the kind words :)
This is Toyota 4runner ?
Rei cot is narrow, wobbly, heavy, uncomfortable.
