    We've had our 3 panel one for over a year, a brilliant bit of kit. Easy to pop up and down, stable in the wind. We have lost count on how many people have been over to ask about it 😅

  • @JsJourney-nz7ci
    @JsJourney-nz7ci День тому

    When you erect the Pronto you don't pull the X's upwards you push them down from above, the Kador strips are for fixing lengths of windbreak together and attaching them to the O/R range of awnings and Screenhouses.......Nice bit of kit.

    Fun review and neat design. We still hammer in poles for our £20 rainbow panel cotton windbreak. Not much use in strong winds. We were nearly tempted by an air gazebo for a wet garden party. With a similar pack size to a Pronto and 8kg, the sides would toggle down to make a windbreak. At £250 a good addition to a van awning.

    Love our OR Pronto 4 panel windbreak! Heading to Norway next month and considering what kit in terms of awning sides 'make the cut' ... but, no question, the Pronto 4 will be going with us!! So easy to put up (may I be so bold as to suggest much easier than your initial demonstration!! 😂). I would say awning plus Pronto 4 almost makes rainblockers redundant except in the foulest of conditions?!! Fantastic piece of kit.😊

    For number 1 a hospital solution (urinal) is sufficient. As mentioned 1 per person is needed if because + 500ml “production” is quite normal and they hold 1000 ml. Number 2, being more of a daily matter has never been a problem planning. The emergency solutions were interesting.

  • @stephenrussell6074
    @stephenrussell6074 2 дні тому

    That’s not how you do it, face it the other way and push down in the centre , much easier. Strip is for extension panel or connecting multiples. We have the pro version which is the same overall length but has three longer panels which are easier to handle in the wind.

    Interesting review, thanks. We get condensation with the Remis blinds even with a window slightly open. The reflective internal blind we tried was useless, so we opted for a Silver Screens and it’s superb. Yes, it’s a bit of a faff if it’s been raining, but we just place it in the shower area when we’re on the move and it’s soon dries out.

  • @dcrilley9624
    @dcrilley9624 13 днів тому

    The payload on a SH Special Edition looks to be about 300-330kgs with the options individually weighed. Camper Sales in Burgess Hill usefully weigh all of the SE tackle in their PDF's for each vehicle. Circa 300kgs is not enough for comfort and peace of mind. I am surprised it is this low given the absence of a spare wheel, the omission of any second bed, the absence of a pop-top and Westfalia's supposed capability for using innovative, lightweight materials in their modern van conversions. If the Camper Sales figures are right, the vehicle needs up plating and Sarah will be better off doing the extra bit of work needed to secure the higher class of licence.

    • @CampervanTime
      @CampervanTime 12 днів тому

      It’s worth remembering that Westfalia quote their base vehicle weight including a 75kg driver, full water tank (100L/kg), 90% full of diesel and a gas cylinder and hook up extension cable as that’s what they class mass in running order. If comparing with others worth checking what their inclusions are just to compare like with like.

    Hi, interested to hear your views upon whether this van rattles and squeaks any less than the vW GC you tested. I have spent all afternoon looking at and driving a GC 600. engine, driving, steering all close to the top in commercial vehicle terms but I was very disappointed at how much noise the jabbering cabinets made when bouncing along the roads of eastern Sheffield and the M1 at very modest speeds - we never got above 55mph.

    Design disasters seem to abound as you show more of this van throughout the video. The upper bunk is awful. Westfalia realised long before VW decided to do it their way that on a platform such as this a usable upper bed requires the van to go to 3 m or a little higher. Witness the beds in the James Cook and the Club joker. My kids grew up in those upper bunks in the older James Cook models. They might have found this half-baked job a bit too much to bear. A really disappointing van requiring a big redesign.
