The Alto F1743
The Safari Condo Alto F1743 is the lightest model in the Alto F Series, and that is a big part of its appeal. It gives you the fixed-roof comfort of the F Series without moving into a larger travel trailer.
For shoppers who like the idea of a compact camper but still want a private shower/toilet compartment, a real bed, a usable dinette, a kitchenette, and strong storage for the size, the F1743 is a model worth looking at closely.
What is the Safari Condo Alto F1743?
The Alto F1743 is a fixed-roof travel trailer in Safari Condo’s Alto F Series lineup. Unlike the R Series models, the F1743 does not use a retractable roof. Instead, it has a fixed roof with a rounded aerodynamic profile.
That fixed-roof design gives the trailer a more straightforward camping experience. You do not need to raise the roof when you arrive, and the interior is designed around more storage and a larger private bathroom area than you would usually expect in a small travel trailer.
The F1743 is the most compact model in the F Series group. If you want the comfort of a fixed-roof Alto but want to keep things as light and simple as possible, this is the model that usually makes the most sense.
Why RVers Choose the F1743
You get a large 60 x 81 inch rear bed space, a front dining area that converts into a 36 x 81 inch single bed, a kitchenette, a large wardrobe, and a private shower/toilet compartment.
The layout is also practical. The front dining area can still be used even when the rear bed is deployed, which matters more than it sounds. In many compact trailers, you have to constantly convert the bed and table back and forth. With the F1743, the trailer can feel easier to live in because sleeping and dining do not have to compete as much.
Sleeping and Dining Layout
The main sleeping area in the Alto F1743 is the rear 60 x 81 inch bed space. For many couples, this is one of the biggest selling points of the model. It gives you a proper rear bed area without needing a much larger trailer.
At the front, the dinette gives you a separate place to sit, eat, work, or relax. It can also convert into a 36 x 81 inch single bed, which gives the trailer added sleeping flexibility.
Kitchen and Storage
The F1743 includes a kitchenette with drawers and pull-out shelves, which helps make the small footprint more usable. You also get a two-burner flush-mounted LPG stove and a built-in 4.3 ft³ 12V compressor fridge.
Storage is another reason people compare the F1743 against other small trailers. Safari Condo lists the F1743 with 84 ft³ of storage, and the layout includes a large wardrobe. That gives you more room for clothing, camping gear, kitchen items, and road trip essentials than you might expect from a trailer this size.
Bathroom setup
The bathroom is one of the biggest reasons to consider the Alto F1743.
The F1743 includes a large shower/toilet compartment with a medicine cabinet, an installed flush toilet, an indoor shower, and an outdoor hand shower.
This is where the F1743 separates itself from more minimal compact trailers. You still get a smaller, lighter trailer, but you do not have to give up the convenience of an indoor shower and toilet.
