The Polydrop is an ultra-compact and futuristic camper-trailer that holds everything you need (and, admittedly, not much more) for your adventures on and off the road. Measuring only 12.4 feet long and weighing in at only 760 pounds, its a bite size of what youd get in a typical 1,000- or 2,000-pound camper-trailer. But its so well-designed, well-condensed, and well-considered that we cant help but fall in love with it.
The teardrop-style trailer has been given a few sharp angles to give it a modern twist; the chassis is all aluminum and the rest of the structure wooden, which accounts for its light weight. Itll easily attach to any car or truck you can think of and stay there.
Its small, sure, but youd be surprised what you can fit inside there: the butterfly doors (very modern) open up to reveal a decent-sized mattress, LED lights, and eye-popping leather trim. The cubbies contain an electric heater, plus USB and power outletsall powered by a solar panel. Its like traveling in the most cutting-edge, cupboard-sized studio apartment you can find on the New York City market.
In the trunk of this bad boy is the kitchen, which includes pretty much just a nice table and storage space for food. Yes, youll have to find your own stove, microwave, or cooler. Just be sure to measure the space first so you know your stuff will fit in there.
If youre in the market for a simple but slightly over-designed camper-trailer, wed say the Polydrop trailer should easily be your top pick. It gives campers the modern edge that they so desperately needed, mixing style and (relative) comfort. And at $9,000, its a (relative) bargainslightly less than, say, a cupboard in NYC. Lets hit the road.
