Downtube Mini? Other 16” folder under $500?

I’ve seen a few articles, but can’t find too much recent information on the Downtube Mini (not MiniB). I’m considering a 16” folding bike and it seems great, but does anyone have any recent hands-on experience with it? Would you recommend it?

Is it as easy to pack away as it seems? Is it good for light off-road aventures with it’s 16” wheels (I know people have done it)? Has it needed much maintenance? Would you recommend another bike?

I’m 5’2” and about 120lbs.

Thank you for your insight!
