Your off-grid dreams can come true with GoSun’s solar-powered tiny house

Have you ever dreamed of living off the grid? Maybe you want to own a cabin in the mountains somewhere, with nothing but beautiful views and wild animals to command your attention during the day. Of course, you’d have electricity and running water — everything would just be solar-powered. The GoSun Dream makes this a reality for many people, albeit with a steep price tag.

The GoSun Dream is a 195-square-foot tiny home that aims to be completely sustainable on nothing but solar power. The Dream is designed to be rugged, durable, and most importantly, portable. You’ll be able to hook it to the back of a vehicle and take it with you anywhere you go.

Many tiny homes cater to more rugged lifestyles, but the Dream doesn’t compromise comfort. A solar awning helps keep residents cool when they’re outdoors, while a highly efficient ceiling fan keeps things cool inside.

The Dream offers a number of other advantages, too — like the ability to plug into more than 13,000 different RV resorts across the country. Water, electricity, heating, and cooling are all generated onboard, while other necessities are met through a low-maintenance composting toilet. The GoSun Dream is equipped with Energy Star appliances for better efficiency, and an outdoor solar kitchen expands the total livable area. The Dream might be tiny, but it is capable of sleeping up to four adults.

The Dream uses a 1.4k-kilowatt solar photovoltaic array and has 4kWH of energy storage. The entire tiny home weighs roughly 12,000 pounds and sits on a dual axle trailer that allows most consumer trucks to easily transport it.

Interested? The GoSun Dream will set you back a cool $70,000, but an RV can cost almost that much. Combined with the solar array and the host of features the Dream offers, it’s not a bad price.

Whether you’re looking for a vacation home to park somewhere year-round or a portable home you can take with you on all of your adventures, the GoSun Dream is definitely an interesting proposition. It cuts down your carbon footprint and gives you a way to have all of your necessities met — and you can haul it with your vehicle. GoSun is no stranger when it comes to solar power — the company has come out with an assortment of outdoor products like a coffee brewer, water purifier, and a grill.

Cyber Monday Milwaukee deals: up to 55% off M18 and M12 tools
Milwaukee M18 Inflator connected to a van tire.

Milwaukee is one of the most interesting of the big cordless power tool companies, simply because it just has great tools. For starters, the Milwaukee line goes above and beyond when it comes to providing quality — you'll see the brand represented among the best Cyber Monday drill deals, for example, and you'll also see them top out-of-the-way charts like our collection of the best portable tire inflators.

Simply put, Milwaukee gets the job done — regardless of the task at hand. At the same time, figuring out which line of their Cyber Monday power tool deals is best for you (the M12 or the M18) can be a bit challenging. While it doesn't sound too complex, one powers less powerful 12V tools while the other handles stronger 18V tools, if you've ever forgotten where your keys are you might also easily forget which Milwaukee line you're building up a battery collection for. So, take a deep breath before assessing these Cyber Monday deals, checking over what each one is, and maybe even hopping out to your garage to double-check what you have.
Our top pick: Milwaukee M18 Tire Inflator (Tool only) — $150 $310 52% off
