I love the gooseneck tiny house, and I love the idea of having three bedrooms, but in this case, it doesn’t work, because I think that her and her husband spent so much money on customization, that 1. defeats the purpose of saving money 2. kids will grow, so how long before they outgrow their “bedrooms?” 3. how long before her husband developed neck and back problems? Of course, the things I mentioned are the concerns I HAVE, are not necessary this family’s, for them it could totally work out, this is jmho.
