Compact camper buying checklist

A compact camper can look fantastic. But how does it work in daily life? Limited space means choices and converting. So the key question is: what can you do at the same time, and how many steps do the daily routines take?

How to use the checklist

  1. 1Take the checklist to every viewing or show — on paper or on your phone.
  2. 2Work through the seven sections and do the tests: actually lie down, sit and pretend to cook.
  3. 3Give each section a score from 1 to 5 and note your dealbreakers.
  4. 4Fill in one checklist per camper and download them together as a single pdf to compare at your leisure.
  5. 5Coming back later? Your checklists stay saved under "My checklists". Enter the same email address above and click "I already have checklists — send me my link": you'll receive a personal link by email to open your overview, edit checklists, add another camper or download the comparison pdf.

We'll send you the checklist as a pdf plus a personal link so you can find your completed checklists again later, on any device.
