Video Transcript for Comparing Classic Accessories RV Camper Covers

Hi, everyone. I'm Evangeline right here at etrailer. I've been making reviews and videos on Classic Accessories trailer covers all week, and every time someone walks by, they ask this question, "What's the difference Which one should I get" So here we are tackling that question. If you're looking to store your trailer, your RV, your teardrop camper, whatever you have for a long period of time, maybe it's off season or you need to pack it up for years, what's going to be the right way to cover it up Really, it starts with three questions. I ask people, "Well, what's your price point Do you want to invest a lot right up front and not have to replace it Or do you want something a little bit more affordable and you're okay with taking care of it and replacing it more often" Second is, "Where are you storing this" Harsh environment, mild environments, extreme seasons, things like that. And finally, "How long are you storing your trailer" Once you've figured out the answers to those three things, then you can check out our different features here at etrailer to help you find the right fit.

For example, when I installed the PolyPro III, I've made note of some different features. The PolyPro III was great for most situations. You have really good airflow with its lighter fabric. That white top has three-ply fabric to it, allowing for that airflow, but also just protecting the trailer from the sun, some snow, and was even a bit water resistant, where water just beaded up on this fabric. The PolyPro III has also been out for a while, so you're gonna have more trailer fits for different size trailers, vans, teardrops, things like that.

This is gonna be a bit more entry-level price. So while you have your storage bag and your high-quality cover, you might not have any extra pieces to it. So I always make sure that when you do get this, you plan for corner sharp edges with just additional items from your own storage shed, like rags to go around your gutters, pool noodles, things like that. But what about your more extreme situations Maybe you're not planning on camping at all this year and you know this is gonna be parked for a while, or maybe you're parked in a desert where it's really sandy and dusty, or you're up in some really snowy, blizzardy situations. That's when you may need to upgrade to the ProTop4.

So compared to the airflow focus top of the PolyPro III, this is gonna be a lot more dense and very similar to, let's say, your awning fabric on your trailer where it's designed to keep out snow to really protect your trailer from those more harsh environments. You still do get airflow with the smooth, single-ply side panels and some air vents, but it definitely focuses on protection. Now, something that I've done every time I've installed a trailer cover is I do tend to cause rips and holes, and that's just the nature of the game, especially with all the things we tend to put on top of our trailers, like solar panels, awnings, roof racks, AC vents. There's a lot of things that can snag and rip. So the ProTop4 includes items to help with that.

You have your soft guard foam protectors, and one of my favorite parts is the included patch kit. Usually I don't like patch kits included because that makes it seem like the item isn't high quality, but in reality, this is going to tear over time, so being able to reinforce or patch that shows how much Classic Accessories knows who's getting their covers. So which one do you choose Well, for me, as someone who lives in Missouri where we get somewhat winter and some sun and maybe uses the camper every summer and fall, the PolyPro III is perfect. Great all-around season cover. Now, for my aunt who lives up in South Dakota where she gets a lot of blizzards, and honestly, she really just uses her camper maybe every other year, the ProTop4 is definitely the way to go. Now, depending on what type of trailer, whether it's a fifth wheel or you have a large travel trailer or a small teardrop camper, your experience will change just because of the different fits available for those trailers. So if you're not sure what your options are, please use our fit guide here at etrailer, put the year, make, model of your trailer, or give us a call or send us a message and we'll help you find all the right fits specifically for you, your trailer, and where you're planning on storing it. So hopefully this video was just a quick look at some of the different features you're gonna get with a trailer cover and how to decide on which one is the best fit for you, specifically from our Classic Accessories line.
