i have seen ALOT of these but its always computer animated videos. i think there is only 1 other REAL video besides this one so many thanks for sharing
I have been living in prefabs for a few years now, due to the nature of my work. They are practical, and would love to get myself one back in Kenya. Ideally, prefabs are made to last for 10 years. They rust when exposed metallic areas come in contact with water, so be careful around the bathroom especially. Well done Grace, following your content.....
Thank you so much Grace for doing this video. I have only come across your video where a person actually goes inside the unit. I was also curious about the shower unit. Keep up the excellent work!
@@beab8738 The ones you buy from China have small impractical showers, whereas the ones we make in Australia have full-length showers. It just depends on which country is showing them in the videos.
@@24JJ821 The ones made in Australia are very expensive but getting them shipped I think customisation is possible and also U can keep bathroom in centre and room on opposite sides and lounge area in front half
I hope that you can give us some updates I think this video has been now on for 1 year and I really like to know your opinion on weather conditions does it stand up to the heavy rains and storms as well you mentioned size again I have mentioned I was a wheelchair 22-in wheelchair will I be able to comfortably be able to go in and out of this but most of all can it really withstand the weather in which it claims it can handle please update would like to know your opinion for being there all year what did you experience pros and cons

One of the things I was interested in was the slab, because, everything I read said it could be placed on a level surface, not necessary to have a slab
So what country was it delivered to? What was shipping compaired to cost. How much was connection for utilities? How has it held up two years later? Not sure if you will see this.. Me and the wife own small plot in kenya. And i was concidering this. Cost is important as much as how functional it actually is.
Ok as far a prices different companies set their prices. I live in America and I can get a 4 bedroom of one of these kind of homes for under 60,000. For us over here that is cheap. Now you have a have a mind to create, I am a desginer by trade. I seen where the company mad the living . I love that. I am not hung up on kichen and living room been together.
How much did you pay for this unit? What site did you order it from? I've seen one similar for around 23k but the shower in this one you are showing looks pretty nice compared to what I'm looking at. They of course have videos of everything on their site accept the important features like the shower and what everything actually looks like.
The outlets and inlets are at the back of the house. The fuse box is usually in the house but it depends which country has made it to where it is positioned.
There are many electrical sockets in the house in all the rooms and bathroom. The only thing that it does not provide for is a stove area. You'd use an electric one or buy one and ask for modifications, which they welcome.
which company did you choose? I have been trouble with an honest company. I didn't realize I was getting quotes from the same factory all quoted different process
how much would something like that cost or any tiny house for that matter, i'm a black American looking to move to Kenya in 2 years n i'm buying land in Ngong and would like to buy a tiny house as well n how much Khs dose it take for one of those? and also is solar legal and option for me to add on a tiny house? n just subbed by the way great content!!!
I am not too sure about longevity but this house is one of those that requires you to be delicate with it. It is designed to be collapsed and so most component are light to allow constant movement. It’s most suitable application would be a quick accommodation solution in remote areas and secure areas, quick solution for offices e.t.c.
@donaldhall3308 you should see my latest videos. I think I have added more weight. If this small weight bothers you this much, I don't know if you will lose more sleep if you see me now. I know you will watch more videos so you can leave more comments like these. Don't forget to subscribe, and thank you for the support!😊
@@livingtinywithGrace I have new plans now I really want to build a tiny house inside a small van then I want to build my own Halloween haunted attraction business then I want to build my own cave house I also would like to build a sphere home business. I'm an artist who doesn't know anything about money. I need to find someone who can do all the money buying and business stuff for me and then I can do all the prop building painting set building the art stuff after someone buys all the stuff. I love Halloween. I'm very serious about all of this.
Its manufacture in China. ThePrice is around 6k to 9k depent on the suplaiyer. Youcan see the instalation of the house in youtube, search foldable house
@12:10: quick solution but not truly worried about the longevity......well buying a house is a big investment. How can I not worried about longevity plus I have no idea the REAL EXPERIENCES of people actually living in this kinds of houses throughout many years with all the harsh challenges of bad weather, storms, hurricane, earthquake, summer heat, winter cold, natural damages like bugs, termites, ticks, molds, etc. and the security against breaking in, thieves, etc. These above are actually what define A HOUSE, not a play room that just a little money that is sold for thousands of dollars or ten thousands of dollars??? I hope these manufacturers actually think they do good, not want people think bad calling names.....I hear people call it scammers.....but I am not following the crowds, I am very open minded though.....I am still a lot skeptical.....
This one is made in China and many people in different countries buy them from China if their own country doesn't make them. Here in Australia, we make them too and I can tell you they are very good. I suggest to look up different websites other than China and you'll see they are very durable. And, the China ones have very small impractical showers, whereas we have full-length showers. In Australia, some add-on options include; pitched roof, exterior cladding, and balconies. The materials are fire resistant, and they are water-tight when put up by the right people. We don't get many natural disasters in Australia except fires, so I'm not sure how they fare in other countries, but I'm sure they are fine.
I feel like this is a great option for anyone who has land but not enough money to build a house yet you could easily stay in this for some years to save your money to eventually build
It is done professionally, so yes. In Australia they are made to the Australian standards, which are strict. You just need to find a website that shows you or people who have done it themselves. Most poeple would get professionals to put it up.
For most parts of Kenya, the weather doesn’t encourage us to think of heating or cooling solutions as long as there is basic insulative properties within the walls. This house is made out of insulative walls that allows for conducive temperature ranges without any more support.
You can use aircon, electric heater, gas heater, fan etc. Just like you heat and cool a traditional house. They are insulated just like a traditional house too.
A year is no problem... Youcan see a family livin on it for two years now on youtube, search tiny house and you can watch that family from USA lovon on it for two yars now
There's also a family living in one in Australia in the east coast on a farm somewhere. Her husband put an arched roof on it because they didn't put the cilicone sealant on properly and it kept leaking.
So where doesn’t the water come from if you want to use it? Also if you use the toilet where does all urine and stool go to? I know the house isn’t connected to any pipes
When you buy the land it should have water, electricity, and sewer mains. You need approval from the Shire like any building and then you get it connected up. If you don't do your homework on the land then you would have to pay more to set up solar panels and battery etc. and use compost toilets if the shire allows it. Assuming you live in Australia.
I am not sure of the lifespan yet. I am still learning more about it by the day. It is slightly more costly than shipping containers but I believe their applications are different.
@@livingtinywithGrace thank you. sorry, one more question. so, should the home need to be relocated to a different location using a flat bed and because the home once expanded, is too wide for the flatbed for transport, would it be possible to fold it back up? I ask because during installation, the home is caulked. Just wondering if it's still possible to fold back up after caulking for relocation purposes.
@@livingtinywithGrace thank you so much for your response. i think the bedrooms are too small. I would prefer one large master bedroom instead. I wonder if there is an option for that.
Very good as it is very well insulated for heat and cold like any other well built structure. The only part that is shipping container is the steel frame. It's on the internet for further info on the materials.
Cool video but that shower looks way too small and the toilet looks too close to the shower so I think I would rather get the 40 foot long expandable house that's like this one even if it costs more if I could afford it to get more space.
i have seen ALOT of these but its always computer animated videos. i think there is only 1 other REAL video besides this one so many thanks for sharing

Thank you for watching
How's the tiny house going after one year? Glad to learn the update. Is it still well? Any damage, leaking etc, pls
Your voice is very soothing. I know that's besides the point but I had to say it...
Very nice video. I love those container houses. You made me laugh when you said if you gained weight you wouldn't fit in the hsower 😂.. good show
Thanks for sharing!!!! Good job ❤ from Johannesburg, South Africa ❤
That shower was a reality check. Damn i thought i could get it all. That looks like it would work but i don't like it😂
I've seen other videos of the same model where the shower is open wet space so I think You can request customisation like she mentioned.

One of the things I was interested in was the slab, because, everything I read said it could be placed on a level surface, not necessary to have a slab
Yes, I agree. In Australia you can put them on stumps as long as it's done by professionals.
Yes, the foundation or supports are critical!
Amazing job Grace!! Keep shinning!

@livingtinywithGrace Hello, my sister. How much is it
Hi can you tell us about the cold and hot whether and that material of the house please. It resists?❤
It would be very helpful to know the price of this unit.
Hi, is there any heat/ac in the house?
Hi, could you please follow up with a report reviewing the house after someone has been living it?
You can see the report on youtube, in tiny house section. Just search tiny house than you will see a family livin on it
DO they give hook up for washer / dryer - also a fridge
Fridge, yes. Washer and dryer you have to request from the manufacturer or you can do a quick modification for the same in one of the spaces.
They have about 6 power points so yes.
Very informative. Thank you.

I wish these were able to be financed. Cheaper than rent for a whole year
Fantastic, Grace! 👍

Where and how do you hook up the water and waste system?
The outlets and inlets are at the back of the house. The fuse box is usually in the house but it depends which country has made it to where it is positioned.
Where is there space for a cooking stove & electrical socket in kitchen area?
I think you have to improvise
There are many electrical sockets in the house in all the rooms and bathroom. The only thing that it does not provide for is a stove area. You'd use an electric one or buy one and ask for modifications, which they welcome.
I appreciate the video. Thank you.
any idea how it performs in the rain ?
Good video, thank you.
