I've had three Camper trailers. A kanga, a t van and another unnamed jobbie. We also have a caravan as our kids are young.
We are contplating a trip to Alice next year (covid pending of course) and will try to buy another Kanga before we go.
The tvan was fancy but expensive. The kanga doesn't even have a battery and is a soft floor. The kanga was quicker to set up than the t van though and the awning only needed 3 poles and ropes.
The Kanga big red has a hard top which keeps the dust out but is still a soft floor as mentioned. Not heavy, a basic kitchen that extends forwards towards the back of the car which compliments the fridge in the boot. Uses the Alko rubber torsion suspension. Not fancy but bombproof. I enjoyed it's simplicity while we had it.
As an aside I replaced the drum brakes with some drilled for LR wheels. Tracked the same width as my old defender too.
You can pick one up for around $5k now too which is a bargain.
