Perhaps the sales bloke should have got mum or a nurse to show him how to mitre the bed end canvas before shoving the bed end in for starters-

They are pretty much identical to the Jaycos, I suppose there's not many different ways to pop up a roof!

Don't know about new kid?  Coromal have been building wind up campers for a long time.  I believe their current campers come from China 80% complete.

Not so much new kid on the block kylarama as getting adventurous with windups with pop out kitchen and a latte or hot dogs and drinks servery by the looks. The windup you're having when you're not having a poptop perhaps.

Interesting door setup with outside cafe table used for lockup but I'm not so sure. Might be a hassle when you just want to flip the catches to poke the kids inside to get stuff out the fridge, etc for a roadside break.

I like the pop out kitchen thing.
My alternative to cheap import trailers;

I like the pull out door that fits to the side as a table, then full height door on the roof... a bit more work in the setup there though.

I have a 2008 model of these as when I was looking around the wife wanted abit more room and with the slide out kitchen it made it a no brainer and just as easy as the jayco to set up. I would recomend the Coramal any day and can handle off road no problems.
