I was looking for a solution for my 2006 CRV (Gen 2) and was going back and forth between buying this and building something from scratch. Most other platforms on the market aren't made to fit the older CRVs, so I wasn't sure it'd work, but wanted to try.

I just took it on a 1,400 mile road trip and slept on it for several nights with 2 large dogs. Before I left for my trip, I set it up in the cargo area with the extendable supports pushed in and used it to store sleeping pads and a water jug above my other gear while maintaining access to the back seats during travel. When I rolled up to the campsite each night, it was easy to set up by myself as it just requires folding the seats down, adjusting a few screw in knobs, sliding the supports into position, and flipping the topper over the supports.

To maximize storage underneath without compromising too much headroom, I got the step platform, but ordered some stubby legs to go on top of the seats since the rise is between 8 inches and 14 inches on a slant when folded forward. This was the perfect amount of room for me as a side sleeper. I couldn't sit upright, but I had enough room that it didn't feel claustrophobic.

While on day trips from my destination, I've left it up to block the view of what's in the cargo area and keep my pups out of groceries, but it will easily roll up and be stored in the cargo box up top when I go back to my regular routine.

The rubber stoppers at the end of the horizontal pieces don't love to stay in, but I'm going to fix that with some kind of adhesive. Other than that, it's about as perfect as can be for what I needed and their customer service team is super responsive and works to make sure everything is exactly right.

Overall, it was worth the cost for its ease of setup and stowability. Plus, when it's time for a newer vehicle, it'll transfer right over. Here's to more adventures!

Anytime a company includes a handwritten note I’ll write a review, love to see it- took the PAW XL on our first camping trip this week, it worked out just fine! We both snuggled up comfortably in the back of my Taco and were able to travel with plenty of storage underneath. It’s a really great lightweight option if you’re trying to stay away from a bunch of wood; no build, TOTALLY worth it IMO. Will give y’all a shoutout on the YouTube, cheers 🤙🏼

The Pacific Adventure Works Hideaway XL Platform is an exceptional piece of outdoor gear and combined with the Exped MegaMat Dueo 10, it makes a great sleeping combination platform. Its sturdy construction and industrial design make it perfect for those who want comfort and durability in the wilderness. The platform is easy to set up and provides a stable, elevated space for camping or lounging as well as storage (height can be easilty changed), which adds a layer of safety and comfort. The XL size is ideal for accommodating the two of us and or extra gear, and its versatility makes it a must-have for serious adventurers. Overall, it's a reliable and practical solution for outdoor enthusiasts looking to enhance their experience. Our first trip was amazing and the Pacific Adventure Works sleeping platform made it very comfortable for us without having to use our tent.

Easy to assemble for use in my new 2024 4Runner.

After months of looking, I finally found the solution to restless car camping in my Wrangler. The Hideaway is bomb proof stable and over-engineered to the point where it could actually last decades. It’s fully adjustable via independent legs, and extendable lengthwise with its telescoping design. It can go from a 39” length in your cargo area to full a 72” bed platform in seconds.

If you’ve been obsessively throwing money at things that don’t work, this is what you’re looking for.
