Both the Aire60 and Aire80 look fantastic! I do wish there was rigid door frame and door for the top of the door. It could attach to the canvas with Velcro. One wouldn't need to unzip the door every time for entrance or exit!
Thank you for the feedback 😀 The hard door frame on top would require a hard top roof. Our soft-top tent approach allows the weight of the camper to be 20-30% less than traditional hard top tent trailers. Our weight advantage gives smaller cars/crossovers an option to tow with full standing height, and extra "creature comforts".
Amazing! Any hot water heater? maybe side shower/hose kit that we can set up a shower room? May front cargo rack?! expand to side dinette floorplan?! endless possibilities! Thanks again. Get a dealer in Florida!
Thanks! No hot water heater option. The exterior shower faucet can be added through out custom team. There is an optional rear cargo hitch that accepts a cargo racks platform. We do not recommend a cargo rack on the front, due to increased direct tongue weight. For smaller vehicles towing our pop-ups the tongue weight is crucial to be mindful of. Definitely talking about a larger 10' model with a side dinette. If no dealer is present near you, we offer a direct shipping option through our carrier partner in the US. Already we have shipped many to a wide range of states in the US. Contact us if you'd like more information on the direct-shipping option.
Great improvements over the QS 8.x series.... Best of luck selling it, I love my QS 8.1. But those harder and harder to find, this would be a great replacement.
Thanks! The biggest change is... NO MORE pesky vinyl tonneau cover :) The rubber liner bed lids are durable, last longer, and you can put roof racks on it for canoes/kayaks.
Hold up... You're using dissimilar metals for the rivets?! That's asking for trouble. As someone looking for a small lightweight pop-up the Aire series are on my list; but that part is worrying.
Clean design, I'll give you that. But it just seems like a lot of extra steps without much extra benefit. No rigid roof, have to unzip to use door, etc I still like it, but i feel like a standard pop up has more utility. My biggest gripe, however, is the insistence to use a phone camera aspect ratio on a 15 minute video.
I totally agree about the aspect ratio. Our team made the video with mobile screens only in mind. This year, another improved video with better aspect ratio will be released. The benefit of the soft-top versus hard-top is the weight. Our campers are all-aluminum, no wood, no rot. We build our campers with polyurethane adhesive, aluminum and stainless rivets - No staples, screws and poor quality thin wood products which is very common on traditional hard-tops. In addition, our weights are in between 700-1200 lbs. Hardtop tent trailers will easily be 20-30% more in weight in size comparable. Yes, we have a few less "bells and whistles" but our campers offer the important conveniences of a heating, cooking, and ample sleeping capacity without the need for a larger tow vehicle.
@@VIDACampersI would argue though that a traditional hardtop has the advantage of being able to be erected during a rain storm with only a minimum of water intrusion during the process. That is something my family has had much practice with when pulling into sites in the middle of the night. Also after looking at the specs; this trailer is only about 200lbs lighter at most than the old 1970s era StarCraft my family used for most of my childhood in the 90s and early 2000s. Except with that; the table was off to the side and didn't block access to the end bed. Other than that; they have almost the same dimensions.

seems even more work than crank roof popup, lol, thanks for posting

This looks like the livin lite quicksilver 8.0 but updated! Do you sell these in the US?
Yes, its similar to the Quicksilver 8.0 with many overall improvements and changes.They will be available in the US this Fall 2023.

can a 2013 honda cr-v tow this? it says that my towing capacity is 1500 lbs.
Yes. The CR-V tow capacity of 1500 lbs will easily tow the Aire80 with cargo capacity to spare for all you gear.

You're absolutely right. Vertical Video Syndrome strikes again.
Want a hard top
Our soft-tops reduce the weight and take away risk of cable/lift failure. A simple design that makes pop-ups more towable with small cars
