I did a search in the trailer tents section and 1 thread.

We're interested in the Camp-let Premium:

http://www.camp-let.com/trailertents/premium/

Mainly because of the ability to extend it to nearly 29m2 not including a side annexe but we can't find any decent feedback anywhere.

No user walkthroughs, nothing, nada.

Anybody even seen one , any thoughts?

I can find 318 threadswith Camplet in the title dunno if any of them cover your questions though.

Edit: If you start a thread about the model you're interested in you may well get some answers.

Thanks , I was selecting up to 1 year as it's relatively new but I will wade through the older threads.

We looked at the Camplet range at Camperlands last weekend, they have all 3 current models up in their showroom.
We opted for the Classic over the premium in the end as I wanted the Living sun canopy and it only fits the classic not the premium. Both can take the additional side annex.
There's a walkthrough here with the full extra awning and side annex fitted (no voiceover though).

How much are you looking to tow, originally we were set to by a camp-let but then got drawn to folding campers and eventually bought one. Never looked back.

Hey, thanks for the feedback I've watched that video a few times now , it's the only decent one I could find.

Were up to Camperlands in 2 weeks time, I can't believe they were at the NEC show and I missed them, they must have been up with the caravans or something.

That sun canope is excellent, perfect for BBQ'ing, can you swing the cooker into that bit? That's a shame they don't do that on the premium.

Few questions if you could ..

What's the major difference between the classic and the premium, are the beds the same size?

The premium they have setup,did it have the premium awning on it and the side annexe?

Do the cookers that are on the trailers remove at all, I don't like the idea of the cooker being so inside next to the beds at all, i would prefer it at the end of an awning near the main entrance for air flow.

Do you know if you have an awning is the ground sheet fully zipped in to the awning?

They do a full awning for the premium with removable sides as an alternative. I just like the style and price of the living canopy.

Beds are the same. There's a comparison here http://www.camp-let.com/trailertents/compare/
The kitchen is an upgrade, there's more options for ventilation as you can open out the whole kitchen side, the front has an apex and the premium is the only one where you can swing the kitchen outside

The premium they have setup,did it have the premium awning on it and the side annexe?

It has the annex but not the awning. If you ask they may do that for you

Do the cookers that are on the trailers remove at all, I don't like the idea of the cooker being so inside next to the beds at all, i would prefer it at the end of an awning near the main entrance for air flow.

No, they are fixed to the trailer but there's ventilation for the cooker anyway

Do you know if you have an awning is the ground sheet fully zipped in to the awning?

No they do a velcro in not a zip in, we bought the bucket but probably by the kampa inflatable groundsheet that fits.The mud flaps are internal so you fold those in then put the groundsheet on top.

We have just brought a camp-let basic, its wonderful can't wait to use it this summer. However just a point to think about. The sun canopy's don't match the tents, well the basic anyway. our tent is blue and the sun canopy's are grey. I'm some what cross as we paid a lot of money and I wanted it all matching. No one told me this when we were buying. I'd have brought the classic as that's grey. Also we didn't like the idea of the kitchen in front of the bedroom. We prefer to cook out side where possible. We went for one with out the kitchen and just use our old cooker from our camping days.

That's a bit naughty, the basic is the old model and I think I recall you bought the special edition cotton basic plus that was a custom order by camp-let for Camperlands. Is your sun canopy the standard acrylic one or a different colour cotton? You could look for a concorde sun canopy second hand, the concorde is the same blue.

You bought the last "basic" cotton they had I think. The 2-go is the new range equivalent and there is no sun canopy for it.

There are two types of canopy avalable for the Classic, the standard one and the living one (which is the big curved one).

I wouldn't be very happy if I'd bought it as a package and the sun canopy didn't match. I'd be speaking to them about it as I would think most people would want it to match.
