I wouldn't know anything about the weight, but I really like the kitchen cabinets. Pretty cool. :thumbsup:

225 pounds??? After wrestling my HF mini around this afternoon getting it assembled, I find that hard to believe. But I guess it's possible!!

225lbs, I'm doubtful as well. Especially since plywood weighs in at 75lbs for a 3/4in sheet, the wheels and tires also weigh a few pounds as well.

I'm wondering if that is an etimate or an actual weight.

Maybe he was referring to the Citroen 2CV tow vehicle. :lol:

The roof actually looks a little like carbon fiber. That would be pretty extreme, though ($$$). :thinking:

(edit) just read the text, and it is CF on the roof. Wow.

I assure you there is no 3/4 ply in this rig. It is also under size.

There are no cabinets. it is super simple.

I believe it can be one for that weight at that size. My 5 by 8 by 4 tall weights 580 with full insulation and lining.

This one weights 7 pounds per cubic foot, mine weighs 3.55 pounds.

225lbs is lighter than Roly's 1/4 Stacker (though not by much). Similar in size, I believe Roly's doesn't have a hatch. The HF 40"X49" trailer with 8" wheels is 130Lbs by itself. Even though it has a Carbon roof, it still has a wood core.

I'm just sayin' I have my doubts. Seems that lots of people are surpised (myself included) when the actual weight is a lot more than their estimate.
