BOXABL's Baby Box aims to make tiny home living feel real
BOXABL’s Baby Box is a 120-square-foot towable RV-style unit with a $19,999 intro price, a $200 deposit, and a 2027 launch target.
BOXABL is pitching the Baby Box as a 120-square-foot travel trailer that looks and feels like a real home, but the product is still closer to a branded pre-order than a finished tiny-house standard. The company’s site lists introductory pricing of $19,999, an MSRP of $30,000, and a financing estimate of about $399 a month, while asking for a non-refundable $200 deposit due today.
The unit itself is being framed as a towable recreational vehicle built to RV Standard NFPA 1192. BOXABL says one person can set it up without special tools, using an integrated chassis with adjustable suspension and leveling and factory-built BOXABL SIP panels. On the homepage, the company calls it a luxury rolling home, which captures the pitch neatly: compact enough to move, but styled to read like a real studio home instead of a stripped-down trailer.
That matters because the Baby Box is arriving inside a much larger BOXABL housing push. The company’s developer pages also include Casita, Familia, Workforce, Suites, park-model RV formats, and larger homes, and BOXABL is openly selling the idea to developers and public-sector buyers looking at workforce housing, military use, homeless housing, and disaster relief. Its investor page says there were 5,000 pre-orders as of 2026 and that launch is anticipated in 2027, which means buyers can reserve a spot now, but not move into one yet.
BOXABL’s history helps explain why the Baby Box is drawing attention and skepticism at the same time. Founded in 2017 by Paolo Tiramani, the company says its Department of Defense project started production in September 2021 and finished in April 2022, with the first Casita taking about a month to complete and output rising to two Casitas a day by the end. BOXABL’s 2024 annual report says the Casita received modular housing approval in Arizona in December 2023, then New Mexico and California in 2024, and Nevada in 2025, and that 2024 revenue came from sales of 51 Casitas to eight customers. The Baby Box is trying to turn that track record into a consumer product, but for now the clearest thing buyers can do is place a deposit and wait for the promised 2027 rollout.
