small all-electric travel trailer?
Need a TT no more than 21', will always have full hookups and never use propane. Does anyone make such a thing?

My trailer is nearly 400 square foot, and I run nearly all electric when I'm at full hookups. I have 30 amp service.
My water heater on all-electric is plenty for 2 people to take short showers back to back. Or one person can a long shower.
My electric fireplace keeps the trailer warm on its own, until it dips into the 20's. At this point I usually run the furnace because the ducting runs though the middle of the floor, so it feels like heated floors. But I also added a pass-through 20-amp plug to the rear cargo compartment, so I can run a 2nd space heater if needed. Usually I use the extra 20-amp to power the inflatable hot-tub, which I setup in the back room.
I have one 12-amp electric appliance in the kitchen. In this case an electric kettle. IF i run the fireplace and electric kettle at the same time, the 30-amp cord does get hot. So I try to avoid that. I doesn't trip the breaker however. I think the microwave must be on a load-shedding circuit with the water heater, since I've never tripped a breaker.
And I do dun both my fridges on electric.
