Well, better than a tent in ND at -30 deg F, but that would be the ONLY time!

Nary a chance. Can't see any advantage in a tiny house over anything.

If I was going to live full time in something that small, I would much rather be in an RV. In the RV, I can travel to different places.

Hi, has anyone thought about going from rv to tiny house

No, but for the life of me I don't understand why you would not skip the Tiny House and just buy a much more livable RV!!!!!! This Tiny House thing is IMHO just a very inefficient RV design.


JMHO,

A "tiny house" is a fine idea, as long as you don't intend to use it the way people use RVs. If you plan to build it in a permanent location, and NOT make it mobile at all, fine. But if you intend to put it on a trailer frame, you are reinventing the wheel, and the designs I've seen make no sense in lieu of a real RV. RVs have decades of experience behind them; tiny houses have maybe 5 years, and are sorely lacking in many ways. Yeah, yeah, I know, greatest thing since sliced bread, better invention than peanut butter to listen to the advocates. For the money, I'd go with a regular RV, however.

We watched a Tiny House show last night.
No way we would buy one. Expensive and definitely tiny.

No..
we full time, and a tiny house doesn't tow as easy as a TT or 5vr
and you can't drive it the way you do a MH

It's fun being in the motorhome for several weeks as it's considered 'tiny' at 450 sq. ft. Our houses are comfortable as they can accommodate relatives and guests. Way more sq. footage than anyone would need but we have started collections over the years that need space.

So, no, a tiny house sounds good but would not work out for us.

MM.

I can see myself living in one if I were by myself and had property to put it on, but I would want one on a foundation and with a minimum of 400sqft. I think the ones on 20 ft trailers with no slides are cute but just too small for comfortable living.

Not for the price they are going for :S
