Kleox Shelter: A Simple, Small Lightweight Travel Trailer

Kleox Shelter has the added benefit of being lightweight

Visually, the Shelter from KLEOX is a simple, small, lightweight travel trailer which is part of the appeal. The Shelter is built to be an alternative to all those other pricey palaces they are calling campers these days. It also has the added benefit of being towed by any mini-car, three-wheeler, or motorcycle while also sleeping two adults.  

The GRP hood equipped with this cozy camper is indestructible by their words. It can easily protect you and your camping buddy from the wet, wind, or other weather. In truth, the Shelter is as close to a tent as it can be, without being a tent.

The fiberglass shell has two hard walls and a ceiling  

The fiberglass shell has two hard walls and a ceiling, which are the epitome of what the Shelter aspires to be: nothing more, nothing less, just like a tent. That design mentality is immediately apparent when you open the rear lift gate to see nothing more than fabric wall paneling and a pair of cargo nets.  

There is no mattress, galley, kitchenette, or any other of those added amenities we see in so many other campers. The Shelter is precisely, as the name states, a shelter for you and your partner. One of the hidden added benefits of such a simple construction is the camper's ease of repair. The Shelter was designed for any layperson to quickly mend any damage with no prior knowledge.   

 

If you want just a bit more space for when you camp down

If you want just a bit more space for when you camp down, there is an option for an annex tent extension. Even the extension is simple, and it is more than easy to set up and relax or break down and store. The Shelter is perfect for those who do not need much to have a good time. 

Or, if you want to take on a project to build your own dream mini-camper, KLEOX also offers an even more raw version of the Shelter called the Shelter Basic. Yeah, the Shelter is their "luxury" model if you can believe that! 

For those who appreciate a more natural aesthetic or construction, KLEOX also offers Timber, which acts as a wood panel variant of the Shelter. The interior is ever so slightly larger, and the roof is made of weatherproof GRP in order to provide sufficient protection from the different climates you may encounter.  

Suppose you do end up wanting just a few of those amenities. In that case, both the Timber and the Shelter offer a few added benefits such as insect protection throughout, windows, a drawbar box, or a hitch lock.
