We love it. It's a game changer as far as comfort and general campsite vibe.
I don't really know anything that you won't find in all manner of popup-related youtube videos, but I will say that the one thing that caught me off guard was that the lug nuts on the camper's wheels are a different size than the ones on my car. Anyone who pulls trailers probably knows this (and I know it now...) but I didn't know it before we got a flat tire 300 miles in to our very first trip with it. We had to unhook and leave the camper on a county road while we drove 9 miles to the nearest AutoZone to get a socket that fit. And this leads in to the other lesson I learned quickly - when jacking the trailer up, make sure it is attached to your tow vehicle, or else it is not stable enough to do this repair.
