thoughts on Coleman Lantern LT Series 16FBWE
Anyone have some experience with this brand "Coleman"? New to this experience, this seems to have a good entry price to try this camping trailer experience out. Any thoughts??

We bought a Coleman 17fq a few weeks ago and went on our first trip last weekend.
There are 4 of us (me, wife, son & daughter) so we wanted a bunk model. We also wanted something small as we don't have big tow vehicles and we aren't planning to go very far or stay more than 3-4 days at a time.
My focus was having a place to sleep and get out of bad weather. If we are out camping then I want to be "out" not sitting inside the trailer all the time. It is on the lower end of the campers so you will sacrifice on amanaties but that really didn't matter that much to us.
If this was more of a hobby and we did it more often then we would move up to a bigger/nicer TT.
So far we are happy with the way this uint was equipped and for the $11K we spent on it I think it was a decent purchase. But like others have said. If you're concerned see if you can rent a similar model somewhere and test it out.
