Skinny Guy Campers reviews

I purchased this Little Guy Max trailer in March 2023. I took it camping in Yellowstone and after two weeks, the furnace quit working. I took it took into a repair facility recommended by RV complete. It then worked for two days and it quit again. The dealer I purchased it from kept it two weeks for repairs and returned it to me. It has been too hot for me to verify it actually works. However, when they worked on the heater, they must have shut something off on the stove because now it is not working. This is the fifth trailer I have owned and I have never ever had so many huge problems. Also, the drawers are poorly made and coming apart. The fridge drains the battery when towing so battery is dead by time I reach destination. So I have spent the summer freezing and now the stove doesn’t work either. Show less

I bought my Half Pint in March of 2021, and up until today, have loved it and have had no real problems. I did lose my keys, called Yvonne at Pee Wee in Tennessee, and she quickly sent me replacements. Also called a few times with general questions, they always took my calls and answered my questions to my satisfaction. It’s been very easy to tow behind my Ford Ranger, 24.7 mpg hauling it back to Ohio from Wisconsin last year, 2022. Also, while camping in Door County, WI., we had HEAVY RAIN for several days, some tents and campsites were flooded, and I had NO issues with any kind of leakage in my little Half Pint. Only gave livability 3 stars because it’s not the type of camper you LIVE IN. It’s small and efficient and was bought to replace my tent, not to watch TV and take showers in! Show less

We bought our Little Guy a month before the pandemic hit the US, back in 2020. It's brought us three years of fun and adventures. I've owned campers in the past (sleeps 4 and sleeps 8 campers) and I've tented all my life. I prefer small as opposed to big styles. This Little Guy we called our "bed on wheels." It helped us keep the back to nature feel of tent camping with the comfort of sleeping in a warm (or cool), dry bed. The galley kitchen is perfect for fixing meals or snacks and entertaining. We revamped and upgraded it to our liking, so we eliminated the huge space between the galley and our sleeping compartment and got rid of the doors to remove the pass through feature which we don't like. All in all, it's served us well! Show less

We searched RV's for years and settled on the 2020 Little Guy Max because of the quality, layout, wet bath and coziness....the big difference in everything we looked at was the quality. We do NOT have the front window or the star gazing window over the bed nor do we have the TV. However, we instead have the great storage system that folds down into a solid buck bed. Our 7 year old grandson LOVES it up there while our other two grandsons were able to sleep on the fold down dinette....foot to head without too many kicks to the face:) The shower is AMAZING....a lot of pressure and hot!!

This manufacturer and model is the ultimate in quality and versatility in a small camper. It has everything you need in a small enough package that you don’t get the drawbacks of a larger camper, like weight, height of the camper, ease of backing in, mileage penalty etc. We have taken this small rig on two 1500 trips of 3 weeks plus and never wanted anything more. For short stops, we leave it attached and do not really even set up the campsite. For longer periods we put up the attached tent to add a LR and unhook the vehicle. We get lots of comments at gas stations, toll booths, restaurants etc. Show less

I’ve had this unit for 3 months now and it’s gone or the shop for a few minor issues. Son bumped or opened the dometic fridge door incorrectly and broke the handle but it was covered under the warranty. Some of the seams where panels meet and where caulking is used is cracking but not a big deal.I think it’s a little expected with my off road use. The shower door screw at the bottom came undone and caused some issues but it just needed a larger screw to keep the frame together. One cabinet hinge is a little loose and needs some adjusting but that’s also expected. The batteries on the wireless switches caused the u to to jot power up so ensure you keep extra 27a batteries handy. The primary structure is very stout I just wished the drains were not in the rear where we have to be careful about departure angles while off road. Show less

I paid $41,775.51 for a brand new Little Guy Max and on my first trip, I discovered the Gray water meter was faulty, the shower is leaking into the dining area and worst of all, a leak on the black water pipe resulted in my interior being covered in sewage. The RV has been dropped off and the dealer is working with Xtreme Outdoors to resolve this but this company has a terrible response rate. Now I am out $42k and no longer have an RV. It’s a beautiful RV but at that price, I expect quality and accountability. My advice, look closely at the workmanship, check seams, cabling, piping and cabinetry, I was with the technician inspecting the leak and found a lot of poor workmanship. Or.. Go with a different RV! Update: Three months later and there is no accountability from the manufacturer. The CEO has nothing to show for his promises to "do right" by me. DO NOT PURCHASE FROM THIS MANUFACTURER Show less

Great trailer for the backroads and can go almost anywhere. The articulating hitch takes lets the trailer move independently of the hitch, so you don't have to worry about a ball and hitch disconnecting over rough roads. Drop-in slot for a Domtetic or another cooler manufacturer with pre-wired power and slide out. There is also an exhaust fan in the cooler compartment. Awesome pullout grill and sink. The sink is powered by a Seaflow pump. Quick disconnects for water (hot/cold) as well as propane (hook up anything you desire). Tons of storage and all of it is lockable. The cage is very convenient as it keeps your gear from sliding around but also lets you lock it safely so that no one can get to your gear. The cage also articulates up fon struts or easy access, or you can use the side door. Great pricepoint for these cool little trailers.. 1/3 to half as expensive as some of the other overland brands.

We purchased this RV due to it's versatility (2 side doors and a double rear door) and, of course, the tow weight limit of our 2 door Jeep Wrangler. It tows like a dream and we receive great compliments everywhere we go. We have friends that say they wish they had this type of RV instead of their Class C Motorhome. Show less
