Review: Ovano

[Big.mac]

Picture of my fridge in the drawer. It’s an Outwell 35l, pretty sure identical to the Dometic 35l. There’s plenty of room as you can see.

Hello, new to the forum and pick up my T6.1 on Thursday...cant wait Will be getting an Ovano, without doubt, but getting some rear speakers fitted next Weds as part of an audio upgrade and wondered where best placed to put them. If I put them in the side panel or roof in line with the rear seats, I assume the OVANO would have to be trimmed to accomodate, Ideally dont want to do this, so wanted ideas on where to place them, Cheers Neil

You can see my rear speakers (and a panel hiding some LED downlights) in the photos below. No mods needed to the Ovano with them in this position.

I have speakers on the side panels, and there’s plenty of clearance, Clarence

That doesn't look like the base is down fully

assume you are suggesting how do you hear them behind the bulk head? if so will only use it very occasionally. Unless there is somewhere else?

It was a joke in reference to @Village post, nothing to do with the question! Sorry!

I've gone with a MegaMat duo. Super comfortable

Every time I get an update from this thread I'm hopeful it's the new MTB version

I have a camping self-inflater, which is reasonably expensive and equally unimpressive. Will defo be getting an Ovano and are really interested in a mattress for it. Like the space saving of the roll-up self inflator, but are they less comfortable and way more hassle than other options?

To be honest i didn't actually look at other options specifically for the Ovano - had the MegaMat already from camping and it fits nicely so didn't need to look elsewhere. It's definitely the most comfortable thing i've slept on that's not actually a genuine mattress. Hassle factor is pretty low; very easy to inflate and deflate. I guess it's fairly bulky when deflated but that's the only trade-off

Thanks for the insight. Will have a good look at these as what you have said makes it sound a good option.

Coastal Customs are going to make a mattress/cushion for me. I want it to sit on top all the time to save on space. Will post a photo when I pick it up at towards the end of April in case that helps
