The concept of prefabricated houses is gaining ever new forms of embodiment, some signs of which are more likely suitable for furniture. Simplification and overall structural optimization of house kits allow owners to assemble them in just 8 hours. Another positive factor in the new trend is the modest price. The most democratic version of such a house is sold for only 4,000 € (280,000 rubles). But not so simple.
Miniature version
The initial version of prefabricated houses from Lillevilla was called Escape. The house is a modest in size construction (10 m2) without a toilet. It is this building, as the manufacturer promises, that can be assembled in 8 hours, although the practice of the first users shows that this is a very optimistic forecast even for an experienced craftsman. But from the obvious advantages of the Escape model, one can note a very solid finish and an atmosphere of comfort inside.
Kit from Chinese manufacturers
The next in terms of security home kit, sold by the Amazon online store, is offered by Chinese manufactures at about the same price. But this option has several fundamental differences. Firstly, the house has a lot of free space, so it organically comprises a living room with a kitchen, a bathroom and two living rooms. Secondly, the basis of the design is made of synthetic building materials, which, however, does not contradict such properties as thermal insulation and energy efficiency.
Full prefab house
Another proposal from Lillevilla is the Getaway version, which is a wood structure that is closer to a real home. Area is 27 m.2, and the cost of the kit is $ 18,000 (1,134,000 rubles). In the house on the upper level there are three bedrooms in the attic and vacant rooms below. The only drawback is the poor isolation, which may not be enough when it comes to operation in cold regions.
A common advantage of the proposed real estate options can be called a simple installation technology without the need for a special foundation. It has already been said that in a minimalistic version the master can meet the deadline of 8 hours, but even the daily time period is very attractive. Moreover, to complete the assembly requires a regular set of tools without special equipment and construction equipment.
Prefabricated House Reviews
There are positive opinions about the packages offered in the Amazon store, but for the most part they are still filled with disappointment. The fact is that the qualities that attract many people to such structures, in fact, do not justify themselves in practice. Such houses can not be used as residential at all after the same 8 hours, even after high-quality assembly. They have no communications, roofing, piping system, etc. Given that the user will have to purchase all this together with additional elements separately, then the price tag can almost double.
But this does not mean that prefabricated houses from Amazon do not have the right to life. And as a summer seasonal houses, and like ordinary temporary huts, they fully justify themselves. And this is not to mention the potential potentials for a purely technical or economic application.
