Whether you are a toughie or a roughie, a sleek and durable camper always adds charm to your hardcore personality. The dilemma, however, arises when you find yourself muddled between choosing an overland camper or sticking with an old-school travel trailer. I am someone who has been fascinated with the old way of doing things; hence, I would prefer a travel trailer over an overland camper, any day. For me, it’s easier to unhitch the trailer – at any time – and go off-roading in my vehicle without carrying the extra baggage behind.

For folks like me, Oregon startup Cube Series has introduced ‘Cube Series trailer,’ a sleek yet sturdy camper that pops up and trims back with the push of a button. Boasting an interior height of 7.7 feet, the hard roof of the camper pops up (time frame not mentioned) expanding the headroom to 9.8 feet and then curtailing down to a height of 6.4 feet. This is possible courtesy of a set of 12V actuators that prevent you from the hassle of doing any physical labor.

Weighing 2730 lbs, the travel trailer boasts an ultra-light aluminum basement structure and is capped by a one-piece fiberglass roof. A fold-down entry step welcomes you inside the trailer facilitated to sleep four people. The interior comprises a double bed stacked against the rear wall. The bed also doubles as a drawer base, forming an L-shaped cabinetry configuration with the kitchen block.

Speaking of the kitchen, it is quite elegant and utilitarian, when compared with its predecessor overland model. Featuring a dual-burner stove/sink combo, under-counter 85-L fridge/freezer, and microwave, the kitchen is elegant and functional. Other features include a wraparound sofa and a dual-bench dinette that stretches across the trailer’s front wall. At night, the table can be lowered to accommodate two more people inside the 17.7-foot-long aluminum shell.

There are a few blind spots in the travel trailer industry and to accommodate a full-size bathroom into its petite frame is one of those. The Cube Series rises to the occasion by fitting a knee-height fixture into its petite frame. Lying next to the bedroom, the small bathroom features a hard-sided shower basin that doubles as a shelf when not in use.

“The counter then flips up for accessing the shower/privacy curtain that attaches to hooks on the ceiling,” New Atlas reports in their coverage. Usually, people store away the portable toilet when taking a shower, but Cube Series saves you from that hassle as well, courtesy of the extra width they have offered in their latest design. Complementing the robust design are large lightweight insulated Acrylic windows with pleated shades and screens that allow trivial yet significant light to enter inside.

Starting at $55,730 the pop-up roof trailer also comes with several off-grid upgrades highlighted on the brand’s website.
