@denmonkey thanks for your comment, keep in mind this is an in depth setup video, so we do a lot of talking. Set up time for the basic unit is around 15 minutes, if you don't talk a lot.
Thank you for the comment, due to manufacturing costings that changes we unfortunately do not supply prices online. Please do visit or contact us should you wish to receive more information and a formal quote.
Goeie Dag Hennie, stuur asb vri ons 'n epos. Ek wil nie he jy moet jou persoonlike details hier tik nie. My epos is sales@zit.global dankie Mitch - Bush Lapa Centruion
Good morning please see the link to the Ratel set up. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-9dh4NSFjT98.html Thank you for following our channel
Thanks for the reply and watching the video. When overlanding one does not have to open the awning. Then camp set up is as quick as a rooftop, pop open the roof bed stays made up, get in a sleep. You just don't have to climb up a ladder.
In my opinion...the shower should stay outside, the "shower curtain " is too low and most women won't use the shower. You will struggle to shower without all of the surroundings getting wet. Will soap on the canvas not make it less waterproof. I would prefer not to go through all the trouble setting up the table. May as well sit in comfort outside underneath the awning and keep your bed made up.
I totally agree ... as I said in my comments above use the shower area for a thetford 263 toilet. Often wondered why caravan makers cannot make a proper cassette toilet without a shower. I also feel that whilst BL make the best intuitive videos a basic price of the vans with a subject to makes life a lot easier to do the research
@redinza, thanks for the feedback on the cassette toilet. We will take it into consideration. With regards to price, we do not advertise the price on RU-vid as the price could change at any time. Best to request a price list then you know you always have the current price.
No arguing that this is a great piece of kit. I found a 2019 Ratel in Autotrader for R439,900 That is the same money for a similar year VW Transporter. When I stop at camp in my LWB 4Motion Transporter, I swivel the passenger seat around, take out my table and two chairs and pour us a drink. Sometimes I go the extra trouble and open the EasyAwn, or pitch the gazebo.
@Deontjie thanks for the comment. We get what you are saying about the VW Transporter. It is a great solution for your style of camping. As they say different strokes for different folks, this is especially true when camping. Some prefer the camper solution some a caravan. We say get out, camp and enjoy. Any way you can.
Perhaps add a spec sheet and also including prices at the end for rough guidance is always nice, so as not to have to chase after these important factors. Thanks for the overall breakdown
Thank you for the feedback Marc, the specifications of the Bush Lapa is in the comment /description section of the video :-) unfortunately prices need to be checked with the dealerships as prices may change. Thank you for watching.
On opening and closing these mangles of the caravan requires a labour of love... Gheezzz... it could take a whole day just to that. ? 😮 So after each opening and closing operation I'll just have to sit down and have drink. What with all the opening a closing...It makes me dizzy to think about. Thereafter I will have to just Open up a Klippies and Coke and not close with it😊😅😂. Thanks anyways for the Demo. 😊
@goodbarbenie5477 fair point. These units are actually really quick to set up. Most of our units can be set up in under 15 minutes. There is plenty time to have a drink in the 15 minutes.
Good day, great video. Looking at the Baobab 3is. Looked on the site but I could not find anything. Do you have a full walk around and setup video. Thanks.
Good day @desertrat3125 please see the link attached. This video is without sound how ever but does give you a good indication on how the 3iS set up. For standard features please do visit our website ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-GbxW4V0Nykw.html
@nqumtheba we have now recently created a Baobab 3 SB and Ratel 3 SB, both offer a slide out bed with a aluminium box that will protect you. Have a look here: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE--t4hQJpu4zg.html and here: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-wmKRmUvqCaI.html
Dear @jedi201. Thank you for your interest. We will be posting the Baobab 2 set up, walk through and breakdown next week. Please follow the channel to be notified when the video is launched.
@zve482 currently we do not have a dealership in the US. If I may suggest, make contact with wessel@bushlapa.com he will be able to assist you with exporting the unit.
Hi Mitch, thanks for the informative video, would be great if you can do the same with the rest of your products. Would also be great if you could include pricing in the descriptoin and what is not included, eg. Fridge
I find it very difficult to move the mattress around and into position in the Kewer, very heavy and an extremely tight fit, has anybody had their mattress modified in order to make it easier. I am 70 years old so for not have youth on my side. Thanks
Does the centre support pole that clips into the middle of the trailer go ABOVE the 2 long, parallel poles? Surely the parallel poles require the centre support pole to do just that, support them...so that the short vertical poles that go onto the canvass to create the pitch have a solid base??
You are correct in what you are saying, on the new poles we have used anodizing. The anodizing will scratch if you lay the two long poles over the center support. This is the suggested method the customer is welcome to set the poles up in the way they preferer.
