Thank you all of your for your responses. This gives me some options and other brand trailers to check out.

If you liked the Casita, but want bigger check out the Escape. I like fiberglass trailers much more than stick-built. I have owned both.

I have an R Pod, I've had it for 6 years, they are okay but not built that great. I've had a leak where the light bar is mounted on the back, some of the paneling has came loose and the drawers rail system fell apart but it tows well and is warm in cold weather. Mine has a dinette that folds into a bed, the cushions do not give enough support, if I were to buy it over I would have gotten the model with a bed in the back with a real mattress.

I heard they were made kinda cheap. My DH talked to a guy who had one and he said things were falling apart within the 1st year.

I really like the look of the R-Pod and that is what sparked my interest in the beginning.

Canadian manufacturer located in BC. There are plenty of videos about them on YouTube, or you could just go to their web site.

We don't have the Jayco Hummingbird, but we do have a Jayco Jayflight SLX. It's small and lightweight like the Hummingbird, and it's a little cheaper too. I did like the Jayco Hummingbird's, but the floorplan didn't have what we were looking for at the time. Our Jayflight has a queen bed, bunks for our two kids, a small dinette, fridge, microwave, two burner stove top, a shower and toilet that are not dry bath style. It's a great little trailer, we bought it almost two years ago and we've taken her out numerous times without any issues.

I have no experience with r-pods so I'm no help to you there.

Check out the Rockwood Geo Pro line of campers. I ended up getting a 19FBS. Very happy with it.
