Late to the parade, but we have owned both a Casita and an R-pod. The Casita was small, but trouble free. We took it across country, all the way down Baja, and down the mainland of Mexico to Patzcauro. We ay popped a few rivets as was to be expected and easy to fix with our rivet gun. When we sold it a number of years ago, we almost sold it for what we paid for it.
After a couple of truck campers, we bought an R-pod. Cute little trailer with a lot more room and a dry bathroom and it was a nightmare. We spent so many travel hours at RV repair places. All quality control was absent. Even the electrical outlets were crooked. We kept trying and finally gave up and traded it in for a Nash 17K. If Casita made a trailer a bit bigger, we would have bought it!
Good luck with whatever direction you choose.
