My Personal Review of the Palamino Ultra Lite T-274

It is crazy how fast this school year has gone by ! A few days in to summer holidays and we just purchased a new travel Trailer !! Here is a little review of it.
We purchased a 27ft Palamino Ultra lite T-274The trailer has an awesome floor plan a queen bedroom it the front and four rear bunks in the back.The kitchen and sofa area are a slide which makes this ultra light trailer feel so much roomier than it actually is. The trailer weighs just over 5200lbs and is easily towed by our 1/2 ton. The interior fabrics are highly washable and a nice dark colour called latte. There are more than enough cupboards and storage compartments inside and out to house everything a family could need to have a well stocked vacation. My only issue it the fridge it never seems to get cold enough you can run it off of propane or electricity and I have tried both and either way the fridge is never cold enough and there is no way to adjust the temperature. I would highly recommend this trailer to anyone who is looking for a lightweight affordable travel trailer.  The power awning is a very nice option no more struggling with a big bulky awning just a push of a button.I would also recommend the air conditioning option be purchased as the trailer can get very toasty. The jack knife sofa is actually more comfortable than you think I have slept on it with my 8yr old son and can tell you it looks like it would be terrible but it's not so bad. the sealy mattress on the queen bed is one of the best features of this trailer it is actually very comfortable especially compared to some  of the cloth covered spring type mattresses most other trailers have. The beds in the bunk area are hard! they need  a mattress pad on them even for kids I bought 2 queen sized foam pads on sale and cut them in half to fit the bunks and now they are great for kids or adults. Go take a look at this trailer if your thinking of buying a lite weight bumper pull it is not as fancy as some of the other trailers but  is well equipped for price and is very light for a trailer with a slide.
