Unless you have to space to store it in the dry during the winter months.....they can be a pain to dismantle, so the tent part/beds you can store in the dry, while the trailer stays outside

Dont think i would want to store one outside during the winter with the tent part still attached, i can see it going mouldy pretty quick.

Used a Conway trailer tent for years.  Like them for what they are.  Bed space up off the floor, removable kitchen/cooker/sink, wired electrics, and able to be stored on its side within the garage.

Watch for mouldy canvas as well as usual canvas things such as tears and waterproofness.
