After checking out plenty of other camper trailers we finally ordered our Tambo Cooper today,ready to pick up on our way home from up north in June.Even with full annexe walls and front,treg hitch,sealed tool box and side lift options it still comes in heaps cheaper than other brands with no options included.And on top of that you get a great discount for being a member on this site.
Now we have something to look forward to once our holidays over.Carnt wait ,sort of!!

Guys,
Ordered my camper from Tambo early jan, taking it away this april. ( Fully speced Cooper)

The campers are great, Keith and Amanda are also great to deal with. If you buy from others like "Dingo" you need your head read!!!!!

Cheers,
Marc.

Gotto agree with that.We looked at heaps and nothing compares with Tambo for the price,infact you nearly have to pay double to get the same rig from the others.

Welcome to the club Nick...great choice. You will love it, even if you wont get it until after your trip north...Kimberly trip isnt it?

Enjoy the Tambo when you eventually get it.

Cheers

I agree - a great well priced unit.

They do have a long lead time however - has to be a trade off with price and quality.

I am adding toolbox soon for our next trip.

I bought a Cooper from them late last year... Awsome bit of gear for the money.

Speaking to Keith - the reason the lead time has stretched out this year is that they got a great write up in a recent magazine and he simply cannot keep up with demand!

The Tambo team a fussy about a really good quality product at an outstanding price.... I own one and if I was purchasing another .. I would wait... even if there was a 6 month lead time.... they are simply that good. Tambo could easily increase their prices significantly and still be competative.

We decided the same in the end,if we had to wait until next summer to get it we were prepared to wait.We just couldnt get the same value for money anywhere else.

Nick, picked mine up on Thursday. Shifting to larger premises has also added to Keiths work load. For the price, I couldn't find anything near them in quality etc.I am looking forward to my first trip with it very soon. Another happy "Tambo" camper.

Hello fellow Tambo Camper owners,
I have mine for years, and I can tell you that they are strong off-road and will give you years of pleasure, with great canvas work being the icing on the cake.
I am starting to see a few around on the tracks now. If I ever need another camper it will be a Tambo, but I doubt mine will wear out.
See you out there.
Ian

Mike, we don't own a Tambo, we have a TrakShak, but we've been away several times with Glenn, and both Al and I are very impressed with the quality of the Tambo both the Canvas work and the trailer construction. They are a great product for the price.

I got,
water tank
treg hitch
extra jerry holder
draught skirt
stone guard, plus extensions to mudguards..

Cheer's Paul..

Lot of folks say you cant buy a decent CT for under $10,000. Obviously you can.

Lots of good reports on the Tambo Campers.
