Meet the VersaBed

Our signature sliding bed system floats above the rear gear garage as a near-queen bed, then slides out to a near-king when you want to stretch out. Pull it in by day to open up the cabin, extend it at night for full-size, comfortable sleep, all without giving up the storage underneath.

Sleeper vans, built for the long haul

At The Vansmith, the bed is where it all starts. A real, comfortable place to sleep is the difference between a van you tolerate for a weekend and one you can live in for months. Every build we make is a sleeper van, hand-built in custom Mercedes Sprinter and Ford Transit vans.

Based in Boulder, Colorado, we have been building custom conversions since 2016. As skiers, bikers, hikers, and climbers ourselves, we know that a good night of sleep is what makes the next adventure possible.

How our sleeper vans sleep

The right sleeping setup depends on who is coming along:

  • King and queen beds: a full-size bed across the back of the van, raised over a roomy gear garage. Standard on our Bivy and Duo couples builds.
  • VersaBed flexible bed: our bed system that gives you a comfortable, full-size sleep surface designed around your layout.
  • Bunk beds and kids hammock: Family builds add bunks and a hammock to sleep three or four without crowding the living space.
  • Convertible seating: dinettes and benches that turn into an extra bed for the occasional guest.

Whatever the configuration, the goal is the same: a comfortable place to sleep night after night. We design the layout around how many you travel with.

New builds and used vans

New custom builds: made to order around your bed layout, finishes, and features, and backed by our lifetime cabinet warranty for the original owner. The new sleeper vans are listed first above.

Used and consignment vans: a rotating selection of pre-owned sleeper vans, inspected and ready to drive away today, usually at a lower price than a new build. You will find these at the bottom of the listings.

Not sure which way to go? If you want it exactly your way, build new. If you want to get on the road sooner and spend less, a used van is a great option. Either way, every van here sleeps two to four or more.

★★★★★

"The Vansmith team exceeded every expectation. Our Sprinter build is absolutely stunning — the craftsmanship, attention to detail, and communication throughout were all top notch. Best money we've ever spent."

★★★★★

"We drove our completed van from Boulder to Patagonia — zero issues. The electrical, insulation, and cabinetry have held up perfectly through two years of full-time van life. Couldn't recommend The Vansmith more highly."

★★★★★

"From the initial design consultation to picking up our finished van, every step was smooth and professional. The team listened to exactly what we wanted and delivered something even better than we imagined."

★★★★★

"Incredible work. They converted our Transit into a rolling home that's both beautiful and incredibly functional. The bamboo cabinetry, galley kitchen, and electrical system are all flawless. Worth every penny."

★★★★★

"We've had our van for 18 months and taken it across 30 states. Not a single thing has come loose, warped, or broken. The build quality is genuinely on another level compared to what we saw elsewhere."

★★★★★

"The team was transparent about timelines, kept us updated throughout the build, and delivered on every promise. Our van is exactly what we dreamed of — functional, beautiful, and built to last."

★★★★★

"I visited three different van builders before choosing The Vansmith. The difference in quality, expertise, and professionalism was immediately obvious. Our build came out perfect and on time."

★★★★★

"Our solar + lithium setup has run perfectly through Colorado winters, desert summers, and everything in between. The Vansmith knows electrical systems for van life better than anyone we spoke with."

★★★★★

"The Vansmith turned our vision into reality. We had very specific requests — custom flare space, roof rack, and a crosswise bed — and they executed everything perfectly. It's the van we always wanted."

Frequently asked questions

What is a sleeper van?

A sleeper van is a camper van built with a real, dedicated bed you can use every night. Every Vansmith is a sleeper van: each build has a comfortable, full-size sleeping area designed for repeatable, restful sleep, not just a fold-out couch.

How many people can a sleeper van sleep?

It depends on the model. Our Bivy and Duo builds sleep two on a king or queen bed, and our Family builds sleep three to four with bunk beds and a kids hammock. Duo builds can also add a bunk for occasional extra sleeping.

Do all Vansmith vans have a bed?

Yes. Every Vansmith build is a sleeper van with a comfortable, full-size bed built in, from couples builds to family layouts. Sleeping comfortably on board is the whole point.

What size beds do they have?

Most builds feature a full king or queen bed across the rear, raised over a large gear garage. Family builds pair a queen with bunk beds and a kids hammock for the little ones.

What is the VersaBed?

The VersaBed is our signature sliding bed system. It floats above the rear gear garage as a near-queen bed and extends to a near-king when you want more room, so you get full-size comfort without losing storage or daytime living space. Pull it in by day to open up the cabin, slide it out at night.

What bed and sleeping options can I choose from?

Quite a few. We offer a fixed king or queen bed, the extendable VersaBed sliding system, bunk beds with a kids hammock for families, and convertible dinettes and benches that turn into an extra bed. Most layouts also raise the bed to create a large gear garage underneath.

Can a sleeper van sleep a whole family?

Yes. Our Family builds are made for it, with a queen bed plus bunk beds and a kids hammock to sleep three or four comfortably, without giving up living or storage space.

Can I customize the sleeping layout?

Yes. Every van is built to order, so you choose the setup that fits how you travel: a fixed bed, the VersaBed, bunks, or convertible seating, plus the bed height and the size of the garage underneath. Tell us how many you need to sleep and we design the layout around it.

Are the beds permanent or convertible?

Both options exist. Many builds have a comfortable fixed bed, while the VersaBed slides and extends and our dinettes convert, so you can flex between extra sleeping and more daytime living space.

Is there storage under the bed?

Yes. Most layouts raise the bed to create a large rear garage underneath, perfect for bikes, skis, totes, and bulky gear, so your sleeping space doubles as serious storage.

Do you sell used sleeper vans?

Yes. Alongside our new custom builds we offer a rotating selection of used and consignment sleeper vans, inspected and ready to drive away. You will find them at the bottom of the listings above.

Should I buy a new or used sleeper van?

New builds are made to order and fully customizable, backed by our lifetime cabinet warranty for the original owner. Used vans cost less and are ready now. If you want it exactly your way, go new; if you want to hit the road sooner for less, a used van is a great option.

How much does a sleeper van cost?

New sleeper vans range from our conversion-only builds up to fully turnkey vans, depending on the model, layout, and features. Used vans are priced individually. Browse the listings above for current pricing, or start a build for a custom quote.
