Hi, great review, however you haven't made the bed correctly. You don't have to access the catches the way you did on the video. There is a gap in the seats side panel that allows you to push the 1st catch horizontally and then the second vertically, this means the bed easily slides forwards. It literally takes seconds when done correctly and is not really awkward at all.
Thanks Kevin for the comments the first catch is right at the back of the seat on this camper and you have to put your arm all the way in to get at it.
Looks as though your feet would be higher than the rest of you when sleeping - as the front seats seems higher than the rear. Although I'm sure the Transit is a nice van to drive, I can't help but think converters nowadays try to cram too much into a small space resulting in a rather claustrophobic feel. Compare the 'open' spacious feel of an equivalent small four forward seat van conversion from many years ago - Autosleepers, Autohomes, CI, etc on Transit's, Bedford's or Talbot's. May be a different drive quality but much more space to live in - in a similar sized van!

As always mate plus IMO the Ford is a great base vehicle..👍👍
You are spot on there Mark they always feel good to drive and under rated on Motorhome.
The Motorhome Man I know they have security issues but so do other base vehicles, Ford say that the 2019 new facelift modal has a better security...👍
