Could anyone offer any feedback on the Quantum camper?
Positive versus the negative features.
Any owners offering advice.

Gidday Gerard,
we've been looking at the Quantum as well. Las time we were in Qld we visited their factory for a look. Overall I was fairly impressed with the whole set up. The van was very well made with most features well thought out. There is stacks of storage space both inside and out. The shower area is a good size, you can set up up a stove /jug inside if you like. The outside kitchen is probably one of the best I've seen.
What I really liked was the low weight of the vehicle (1850kg) and it has electric brakes. The owner (name forgotten) is very receptive to ideas/modifications and will fit or change anything if it's a good idea.
All of the parts used were of high quality but in general use in Australia, so spares should be easy to get.
Set up was very easy - it looks easy to tow and is would suit both quick over nighters or extended stays. It does have a good variety of walls and annex extensions.
Cheers

A couple of things I didn't like about it were .....heavy weight, ground clearance ( limited off road ability )

I would have a good look at the Track Topaz if I was in the market for one of these type of trailer ..depends how much offroad you want to do ??

Sorry, didn't think the Quantum was that light, but both are a bit heavy for me ( weight and price )

Had a look at both at Rosehill and the Topaz would suit me better IF I was to own one of the two..

Gerard, I can't offer you specific feedback on the Quantum, but as we had owned an Odyssey ZR for 4+ years I can't say enough about the build quality of their (Australian Off Road Campers) products.

Their attention to detail is outstanding and they are more than willing to listen to your specific needs and do modifications if they are possible.

Just a great company to do business with.

Geoff

Gidday A J,
yes, you are right - basic weight is 1350kg. I was working on the weight I'd be towing with all my rubbish on board. Still very happy with 1850kg. Looking at a few of the other posts - I was happy with the off-road ability re ramp over and departure angle. You can get better but depends where you want to take it - for me that's most places.
Cheers
