The Offline Domino is a true offroad specialist’s camper, well thought out and full of practical features. The ground clearance is good, while the Cruisemaster XT suspension, most especially with the airbag feature, meets every requirement and has the virtue of service centres around the nation, and the build quality is excellent.

The comforts are a major plus with the Domino. The readily accessible queen bed with its personally chosen inner spring mattress will be welcomed by any traveller when the camper is in either mode. The rear floor is roomy and a great boon if you have kids or the outside world is unfriendly. The space heater, lighting, fans and rooftop thermal blanket all assist in controlling the internal environment.

It’s always great to see a camper brimming with Aussie ingenuity and attention to detail. Throughout the camper, the quality of fit and finish is clearly evident. Slides are sturdy, work surfaces are practical and the internal adult’s sleeping space has a resort feel. With the Offline Domino offering so much amenity and comfort, the only thing left is to pack up, head out, and enjoy the ride.

To support your adventures, the Offline Domino provides heaps of features to help keep you in the great outdoors longer with lots of built-in redundancy. This includes separate 105L and 75L water tanks, with a lift pump and inline filter so you can top-up on the run. There’s also 435W of solar fixed to the roof, with 260W exposed to the sun at any one time. When it comes time to pack, Offline have clearly focussed on space optimisation. Whether it’s a shower hose, extension cord, awning pole, cereal box or generator, there’s a suitably shaped storage cavity. 

A lot of work has gone into the R&D and it shows with an impeccable finish, ingenious functionality and classy fixtures and fittings. This is the perfect camper for a couple who love the adventure of a big trip but want high-quality comfort as well. It has been designed for self-sufficient, off-grid camping and can go where most caravans can’t. The good thing is at this price there is nothing else you need to add as everything is included — all you need is to pack some clothes, fill the fridge, hook up and hit the road on your next remote outback adventure. This Aussie owned, designed and manufactured hybrid is great value. 

The X-Factor for the Offline Domino is the simplicity of setting up, either in the travel mode or camp mode, and the high-quality comforts make it so special. It’s having an external connection that enables you to pump up your tyres using the airbag compressor, to the electric actuator that opens the floor to the precise position required when in camp mode. This is one heck of a well thought out camper trailer and a worthy winner at Camper Trailer of the Year for Best Hybrid and Most Innovative categories.

Wowser, talk about starting off with a bang, and no I do not mean we hit a tree. We’ve only known Offline for about a year and this was their first CTOTY, yet they immediately took two prizes including the coveted Most Innovative Camper. The Domino’s design fits our style of touring perfectly, allowing comfortable one-night stays on the way to one of our many spectacular but distant campsites. 

An innovation I really appreciate is the positive-pressure dust prevention system built in-house. A small fan pushes air into the front locker which is filtered through an off the shelf car cabin filter but best of all, it is wired to the tow vehicles ignition so will turn off when the car does, saving embarrassing flat batteries but ensuring the system is always on while driving.
