TikToker Nathan Graham recently bought a $20,000 flatpack house from Amazon and documented the process of assembling and exploring it. The 19ft by 20ft home arrives pre-built but needs some setup to be fully functional. Inside, Nathan discovered a small hallway and a bathroom equipped with a shower and toilet, which would work if connected to a water supply.
The house’s standout feature is its expandable design, which allows it to unfold and significantly increase its size. With the help of friends, Nathan expanded the home, revealing a more spacious interior with simple white walls and plenty of windows, ready for customization.
Viewers had questions about the practicality of the house, including concerns about waterproofing and insulation. Some also wondered how secure the walls would be against external pressure, like someone pushing them.
While not a complete solution to the housing crisis, this flatpack home offers an affordable and unique living space for those looking for a minimalist or temporary home, albeit with certain trade-offs in comfort and amenities.
