Hi everybody,
Having spent two very wet weeks in June camping in Dorset followed by a nightmare trying to dry our awning we are looking to change our camping style to be able to sleep in a bit more comfort off the ground.
As a prospective new Dandy Owner we have a few questions, we are most likely looking to purchase a Designer-so far as I can see this is the only model that can sleep 4 and also has a table and 2 separate seats, is this correct?- we have 2 children aged 4 & 3 respectively so a table is essential for them.
How long does it take to put up a Designer?- i have seen figures from 10 to 40 minutes
Is it possible to do it singlehanded?
Our intention is to use it in conjunction with a standalone awning- we currently have a Navigator Kombi awning which goes on to our VW camper to maximise the amount of space- has anybody tried this in the past? For short breaks we envisage using just the Dandy and Camper van with the awning being kept for longer holidays- or as my wife puts it if I am going camping again for 2 weeks I would like a kitchen (camper van), sitting room (awning) and bedroom (Dandy)!!!
Finally if anbody on here knows of a Designer, preferably blue and white for sale, please could they let me know, we are in Sussex and Dandy's in our part of the world seem pretty much non-existant. Ideally it would be within 3 1/2 hours drive of us.
I am sure we will think of loads of other questions but will pose these for starters.
Many thanks for any pointers/ help anybody can give
Andy
