Ya'all made me cry today. After my mom died my handicapped sister was put with family who didn't take care of her. After my dad died she came to live with me. She could no longer walk and it's been hard trying to teach her everything over again. We enjoy watching your videos together. Today I turned the tv on in the kitchen to watch your video. She was in the living room. Here she comes walking into the kitchen and sits down to watch with me! She doesn't talk but she understands things and she's picky about who she likes. She gets tickled when Matt skips and I do the ber ber ba be before the msrp. We love you guys! If I ever get an rv we're coming to visit you guys! You just made my whole day!!
@@MattsRVReviews Matt and Andrea, this is how many people view you guys... as good people with talent. You fulfill many peoples dreams, even if they are not in a present-day moment to purchase an RV. Your response was so heartfelt by US viewers. I am not buying from any other dealer, but you, when I am ready to do so.
LOVE this one! This would be the best first RV for me! My 3 Loves: 1. The Murphy bed and back door 2. The J lounge, which is a great combo of sofa and dinette, and 3. the neutral colors and the decent valances that don't make me want to rip my eyes out! Lol! (and 4. the amazing storage, and 5. prepped for solar) My 3 dislikes: 1. No oven or convection oven 2. plastic toilet and it seems tight 3. ...can't think of one
Happy belated birthday Andrea! Matt's the sales guy, but you're the people person on the reviews. Thanks for being part of Matt's RV reviews. You are a great couple, with a unique brand.
Really a lot to love in a small footprint.CCC is amazing due to no slides. Great Murphy bed and rear door. Nice J-lounge. Bathroom is utilitarian; wonder if swapping toilet and sink locations would improve. Convection is needed. Bunk capacity should be 500lbs.
Amazing price and I love no slides Andrea! :) Amazing Cargo capacity and I love the murphy bed option and that is one of the few dinettes I don't hate! Love the skylight over the bunk too! Don't like the raised countertop, love the sink, hate no oven, love the 3 burners, love the fridge.... OKAY LOVE THE MOTORHOME - knocked it out of the park Coachman; for a single fulltimer this would be an amazing starting unit :) PS - the toilet....meh but rest of the bathroom awesome.
Omg I think this might be the perfect RV! As a solo female traveler with my daughter sometimes in tow this floor plan is so flexible in a rig that's small enough to drive! Likes: the colors (inside and out), the Ford chassis, the J-lounge and how flexible it is (are the RV designers finally hearing our complaints about traditional dinettes?). Dislikes: the raised area of the kitchen counter (why??????), the color of the countertops, mini blinds. You're right, it's a nice step up for those of us looking at a van or B+.
I thought every manufacturer would put a door in the back by now. This is an inspired floor plan and a very pleasant interior. I agree about the galley needing a convection microwave. If the storage area aft of the cooktop were shortened 2 or 3 inches, the bathroom would be a bit roomier and the door would open farther. I would guess that putting the sink where the toilet is and angling the toilet beside the shower would alleviate the bathroom congestion. This would be perfect for a fishing or hunting trip as well as a great way to see the country - and would give you a way to haul plywood home.
The things I like about this motorhome: 1. the amount of storage combo with the garage/bed area with access from the outside 2. the J-lounge 3. sliding door in the shower The things I like about this motorhome: 1. no convection microwave oven combo with the elevated counter top 2. the 300# capacity for the bunk over the cab 3. the tight entrance into the bathroom
Great price for all you are getting in this smaller unit! Love: the outside storage and garage feature, huge awning, j lounge, abundant interior storage, and cargo carrying capacity is a major bonus that makes that garage space all the more appealing. Dislikes: awkward elevated kitchen counter to the left, did not see an outlet on kitchen counter, and microwave should def be convection to replace lack of oven. I'm always cool with no oven as long as there's a convection microwave to make up for it. Happy Belated Birthday Andrea! Thanks for another great review, you two stay safe out there.
This is it!!! After looking at a gazillion class c units, I want this!!! Change the plastic toilet and put in an oven. Pocket door or slider door for the bathroom. Perfect! Going to do research on this one, I love it!!!! Great review Matt and Andrea! Also wanted to wish you a Happy Birthday Andrea.❤
Happy Belated Birthday Andrea! Likes: 1. No Slides 2. Murphy Bed 3. Back Door (storage under the bed.) Dislikes: 1. No Oven 2. Dinette (yuck) 3. The Color Scheme This is my favorite RV of all.
Happy belated birthday Andrea My dislikes: No convection microwave, the toilette could be a cassette toilet and no black tank and the seats don't swiffle. My likes: small motorhome with enormous floorplan with the J lounge, spacious bathroom for that size RV and the price tag which makes it a great starter RV
Needs an articulating or bifold bathroom door to give more room while inside and to enter. Agreed microwave convection oven needed. This unit is a great small toy hauler with backdoor! No ladder provided so Matt skips the roof tour. Twelve volt compressor fridge not a two way fridge so what about solar and battery power. Love this little unit with no slides. "Sale" sales price too high needs to come in at $55-59.9k. Thanks for the tour you two! Share the love ♥️.
This might be the one for me. I agree about the microwave and the weight limit for the bunk over the cab. Microwave should be convection and cabover bunk should hold more weight. I wouldn't need it for sleeping space so I was picturing tubs up above for storage as I will be full-timing. I LOVE LOVE LOVE the back door. A mini toy hauler (great place for my ebike when traveling) and wonderful views and cross ventilation when parked. Also fantastic CCC.
Likes - J-lounge, large murphybed, back door with screen, large storage inside and out. Dislikes - tight bathroom entrance and toilet placement, no convection oven
3 loves 1. Kitchen 2. Storage 3. As you know, I love Class Bs with rear doors that are great for opening at the beach. This is the best of both worlds! I'd love to see a bigger door! Dislikes: 1. Plastic toilet. 2. Bathroom Door should be different. 3. Bunk over cab. Personally, I'd rather have a bigger fixed TV. Something I'd like to see is setting up the area under the bed for a desk or itd be cool if when raised it had a couch under (not a Murphy bed) So this is my favorite class c now.
Great RV Perfect for a single RVer. I would need a Micro/Convection combo. I would want a flush with counter kitchen sink with covers to add more meal prep space. A slightly wider bathroom would be better. Another UA-cam review from an owner of this model showed how he removed the queen bed and installed a XL twin bed. Now he can get out of bed easier. This gives him walk through space and better access to the cabinets in the bedroom. It would allow for an Ebike to storage inside also. I have put this RV at the top of my list of RVs to check out at RV shows and dealers. Great Video!
Andrea I would remove that bathroom door and replace it with something else OR swap the hinges so it opens to kitchen...Thin person designed that door LoL
Love that you are doing some smaller entry level RV's. Wondering if you could mention what the weight limits are on fold down dinettes? With the over the cab bed having such a low weight capacity I am curious about the dinette's ability to sleep adults. Dislikes: 1. No steps into the RV. 2. Tight bathroom. 3. Lack of oven or convection oven. 4. Plugs in kitchen area? 5. Not a fan of mini blinds in kitchens. Likes: 1. No slides! 2. Love J shaped dinettes. 3. Nice swing arm on TV for maximum viewing. 4. Storage area/bedroom area. 5. Screen door on back door access. 6. Comes with a generator standard and is solar prepped.
Happy belated birthday Andrea. If I could afford it, I would buy it now!!!!!! I love the back door and bed placement. Do miss the ladder. That back door makes up for it though. All the space and drawers. Wow! More pluses for a 24 feet motorhome!!!!! Yes I love the Ford chassis too. Coachmen did a great job. I am keeping this one in mind when I have more money on hand.
That is the best swing out tv I’ve seen in any coach. If the bathroom was rearranged with the sink in the corner it would be much better. Add a pocket door and that bathroom would be fine. I agree the bunk should hold more than 300, it’s really spacious up there. All coaches should have an oven or convection option. Other than these things, I love this coach.
Can’t imagine buying a Class B when this option has so much more for the money! A real bathroom! Real bedroom! And still small and nimble. Not much different than driving a U-haul. Very nice! Plastic toilet is a let down. I would put in a smaller bed, cause I don’t need a queen bed. And being a cuddler a smaller bed is OK. That would free up more room for the bathroom door. I love the rear door!! This would be perfect for a single full timer, or a close couples camper.
Kinda low key for you today Matt, hope you're feeling well bud. I cant say enough good things about small class C units. This is perfect for the small family that wants to be outdoors when camping but needs a decent mobile home base for travel and bad weather. I love the overall package but I feel some unfortunate corners were cut in the name of cost savings which hurts the quality of the final product. Would certainly consider this one though... Likes: 1. Small class C on that Ford chassis means high load capacity. Not only can you pile a lot of stuff in the unit but when factoring in combined weights for towing you can actually tow a small boat of toy box pretty comfortably. 2. You nailed it. The back door/bed storage is awesome. 3. The j-lounge is great. When the rain does come and the kids are cooped up with the TV that's the perfect spot. Dislikes: 1. I can put up with a small bathroom in this unit because I would shop it against class B's. But a plastic toilet on a rig with one and a half tons of cargo capacity? That's just cheap. 2. Ditto the microwave, spend a few bucks on a convection unit. 3. And the third cheap cop out.. They do need to spend some money and beef up the bunk over the cap to hold at least 450 pounds.
We previously owned a Coachmen Class B with a rear dinette while our kids were national competitors. It was nimble! We loved it. We loved the back door. A few days ago my husband and I bought a used Coachmen Class C Freelander. I was wishing it had a back door! It did not come with an oven, and it only has a microwave. No outside ladder. Re; 2021 Coachmen Freelander 22xg I LOVE what they did with the 'toy hauler' backroom conversion. Really good idea. I like the fridge size. I like the larger handle assist to get up the stairs when getting in the RV. Because it is on the Ford it may have the option for swivel seats. The Chevy does not. I DO NOT LIKE the tiny bathroom door. I think the overhead could be a higher weight capacity, at least 350-375. Need CONVECTION microwave when there is no oven. I would prefer a porcelain toilet. There is no way to get up to the roof to check maintenance needs. I don't understand why there wasn't even a portable ladder stored below for the roof. Maybe they could design the bunk ladder and the outside rood ladder to do 'both' needs.
The refrigerator is 12 volt only. It is fantastic! We bought one of these from General RV in Ocala in September 2020. It is our first RV ever. It’s not a luxury RV. But it definitely is adequate. The worst part of this RV is the lack of toilet space.
Another great video--I really love this layout. Question: Lately I've been hearing the cabover bunk has 800 lbs of capacity--did they upgrade that in 2022 or 2023 from the 300 you say here?
Yep it’s the right price and size for long weekends with the ability to get into small state parks. Kinda bringing back the basics to class C motor homes.
Wow, what a great price! Dislikes are: no convection or oven, plastic toilet and the blind in the kitchen. I guess they could be swapped out?? I love the sofa/dinette, the Murphy bed for our bike storage with the ourside door, and the TV looks like it comes out far enough to be OK. Good storage, too.
Happy Belated Birthday Andrea!! Likes: I like that this is a multi-purpose RV! The back door is cool. You can carry more than sports equipment like a kayak, you can also take it to Home Depot and load some plywood or 2x4's in the back. I have to agree with all your likes/dislikes. This non-slide class C is really interesting.
Needs a ladder on the back. They should have just done without a sink in the bathroom... this would have increased the space. ABSOLUTELY must have an oven or a convection oven! Love this motor home though!
Missed you Andrea, happy belated 🎂 birthday! Hi Matt Like: the size, large bath, ability to haul bikes/kayak Dislike: no oven (needs to have a convection microwave), the screen that comes out from the dash (something to go wrong). This is a perfect RV for someone young (like my son who likes to kayak, bike, ski, hike, etc) who are very active and who want to just camp.
Thank you for showing this one. I want a class B but the I in my head cant bring myself to spend more on a vehicle than my current house. So this size and price point work for me.
Finally, Matt! This one isn't exactly perfect for me, personally but it's closer than anything I've seen yet! Of course, I've had to settle into the fact that I'm going to have to ditch TVs and redecorate, but this little camper is just perfect!! I would just have to, like I said, ditch the boob tube, recover the valances (plain black isn't cheery by any means), cover the seats and ditch the murphy bed. I'd rather put a single cot/bed back there and have some moving around room and with that great, FANTASTIC screened door back there, I'd want it! Besides, you said it yourself, can't get the door open all the way with that huge bed. The bathroom is kind of small but the way I look at it, it just means less to clean. Getting older and looking for less 'work' anywhere I can get it ha ha. The walls are nicely covered. And kudos to Andrea for pointing out the need for a convection oven. I make a lot of okie stew and you have to have cornbread with that...can't make CB in a microwave! So I guess I'd have to change that, too. And I love that it doesn't have slide-outs. I love the options in the dinette. But when it comes to customizing it, this ones going to be quite easy. Especially with no fixed bed. I also like how it doesn't have a dashboard that looks like the cockpit in a 747. This old dog isn't up to try learning any new tricks! Just give it to me simple and easy. I just love this little RV and the price is good and looks easy to drive and handle and just enough room for this little old single lady! Right now, I have a toilet crammed between a bathtub and a big, gaudy sink vanity so I'm used to pooping cramped lol. So no problem there. Three burners on a Magic Chef...a good old name in stoves so I'd feel comfortable there. My only problem is getting from California to Florida to get it....I don't know if I could handle shipping if you did that. But congratulations! You kept trying until you showed me an RV that I could settle on! You da man!!
HB Andrea. My 2 favorites comments on every review. 1- Say hello to Andrea....Hi Andrea! 2- Its time for the MSRP ....FIIIIIIUUUUUUU! (on class B only) I don't own an RV but if you someday sell a FIIIUUUUU. MSRP sticker with Matt watching the MSRP price on the phone, or with the wide open eyes doing the FIIIUUUUU while looking back at Andrea, I will buy 3 one for backup and one for each of my vehicles.
Is the dashboard camera screen radio screen the way it pops in-and-out every time you turn it on and off that will break I would not want that that would be a deal breaker because if that breaks you the vehicle is useless when driving
If I was Coachman if There’s anything I add to this RV it would be side View cameras a ladder for the back and maybe a Wi-Fi antenna and a upgraded radio . You could offer it as a option package and price it so that everyone still makes money and the consumer gets a little bit better then a base model. I know I would definitely buy one.
Our Coachmen B rear dinette van camper was made better than our current used Coachmen Class C Freelander. Class C has a better bathroom than the Class B.
This is a great entry level experience that allows you figure out what’s important to you. After a summer with this you will be content or looking to go up to a super C like the one you reviewed with Tommy B
Very nice option! If my husband would have agreed with me I would have hit the buy it now option. Love the small size, great CCC, and the back door. Close4th would be the fridge size. Dislikes mostly the microwave not being convection. Was wondering if seats swiveled. If they don't it is a con.
This might be for us...to ease into an A class fulltime. No convection oven, bunk should hold at least 500 lbs. & I'd add a flip up on the counter. Love that we can haul our Goldwing! Room for our pups and the layout/storage would work for us~ thank you for the review.
That's a really nice unit! I agree with everything you like and dislike but would like to add that I love the fact that there are NO slides! My only concern is the quality at such a low price point. Does anyone think that it would simply shake apart during the first 1000 miles??
Great review and a good size for people who want a smaller RV We liked the storage We liked the dinette But not much else We dislike that there is no oven or convection microwave The bathroom is not going to work for anyone who is on the big side The weight limit on the bunk over the cab I do not see this working for more than one smaller person ! Thank you for another great review !
Good morning! Just passed by your place. My husband and I watch all your videos. We love them. We have a class -c RV , bum beds Jayco. We are part-timers. Want it to stop, but hubby said no. Andrea and you make a great team. Keep it up and be safe! God bless.
For the bathroom toilet probably better next to shower, have curtain open the other direction. With 3k CCC little reason it has to be plastic too. No sink covers for extra prep space. No ladder; with proper hinging could have it on cargo door and still swing that fully open. Murphy bed should have clips to hold it vertical; a big bump and it can flop over easy enough onto cargo, it looks. Not sure how much it would impact tank sizes but a loading ramp ala U-Haul would be nice for getting heavier gas or electric units into cargo area. Like the J-lounge, simple exterior paint, awning, and fridge; the 10 cu ft better than the 8s used more often.
My likes: 5k tow capacity, no slide outs, the back door. Dislikes: Small head, standard microwave, low weight capacity in overhead bunk area. Did seem to have a very heavy duty tv bracket with good reach. We still think the best Class C for us is the Entegra 29K. With the only slide out being in the dinette area and plenty of clearance with it in, using the slide out remains an option. We'll be in touch. :)
Maybe the toilet should be next to the shower for more room and the sink near the entrance to the bathroom. A full size mattress instead of a queen so the bathroom door opens further. The Chevy chassis. Flip up counter extension. It is really nice, I think.
Love this motor home. Price and size. 3 things I like are j lounge, storage, and Murphy bed. 3 thing I would like to see different are kitchen counter to be 1 level with sink covers for more counter space, convection microwave and cabinet/wardrobe separated for pantry on one side and wardrobe/closet on other side.
Totally agree with ya'lls likes and dislikes. Not bad for a class c but that door to the bathroom really needs to open further. Happy belated birthday Andrea and very good review. Stay safe ya'll.
3 things I like: J Lounge, the pop up video screen, good sized fridge. 3 things I dislike: need a 3k Inverter and lithium batteries rather than the generator, with decent solar. Need a 12v compressor fridge. Need an option of a slide out tray out the back so the bed can stay down, but use the space underneath for storage. Oh, side view monitors or side collision warning systems is a must these days. would also like to know what safety features comes on the chasis (LKAS, ACC, etc).
It comes with a 12 volt Norcold and it’s a great refrigerator. Cools down fast and runs off of the batteries for 10 hours with no problems. We love the fridge. Matt had his fridge info completely wrong.
@@Dobermanator There are 2 grey valves and 2 black valves. There is a set on the passenger side and another set on the driver's side. I've never seen that before.
The black and grey tanks are on the passenger side, and the valve needs to be within 18 inches of the tank. So to dump the tanks, you would need to hook up your hose, then pull the valve on both sides of the RV.
I think this is my ideal RV. I love the back door by the bed, love the J lounge and I really like the color scheme of the interior so many motorhomes look really stuffy or old (even brand new) and the color scheme of this is so clean. My main issue is with the bathroom. I wonder how involved it would be to rip out the sink and replace the toilet with one that has a sink on the top of the toilet tank to save space and have more room. Agree that an oven or at least a convection microwave would have been nice. I would have really liked a window for the cab bunk too but the last two are pretty nit-picky.
Beautiful little rig. One thing I would add is a window in the back door. I’ll take one. Happy belated Birthday Andrea!!! Hope you had a good one. Stay safe guys. Cheers!!!
I think if you switch the position of the toilet & sink, you have better leg room for sitting on the throne. Increase the workable kitchen counter space by having a flip-up cutting board to the left of the sink, just inside the door. I could foresee a floor plan without a Murphy bed just by raising the bed (and window) - creating a garage under it. As for the oven, put in a cooktop with a small oven (propane).
It is neat design to just put the bed away for more floor space. However, if a person uses that bed, may be difficult accessing the bathroom at night. Didn’t get a clue on the space around the bed.
3 Likes: 1: Mini-garage space with door and fold-up bed, and Cargo Carrying Capacity to handle the weight 2: Great price, especially compared to Class B’s 3: Nice J-lounge dinette and sofa combination 3 Dislikes: 1: Cramped bathroom 2: Weird kitchen counter 3: No rear ladder
Happy Birthday Belated Andrea.. likes: The compressor refrigerator Ford chassis Azdel Back door Dislikes: J-lounge, table too close Tv placement Pull valves on the driver side Plastic toilet Bunk on the cab is kinda useless 300lbs seriously DIY look, it’s getting old fast No convection oven Awesome review Matt & Andrea like always 😁😁😁
Happy birthday Andrea , Awesome storage!!! Maybe they could put the storage closet in the shower area and moved the whole bathroom up where the closet area was and the door would be easier to get into. If they would have rearranged out the bathroom and put the commode next to the shower and the sink by the door they would’ve had a lot more legroom. But other than that it’s a fairly nice little motorhome. I would be tempted to trade my 24 footer in for that one just for the storage.
Happy belated bday Andrea!! Now for my con list: I agree need bigger microwave that’s a convection oven ; since there is sooo much room under the bed for storage, I would have liked there to be a stackable washer and dryer in the large cabinet/wardrobe
Happy belated birthday Andrea! Guys I agree with your likes and dislikes. I live n Virginia. I’m trying to talk my wife into coming down to the Tampa RV show.
This is the one that I like. The Cresstrek has the smaller refrigerator. Wishing that it could have a twin bed and cabinets above the bedroom window. I like the Chevy truck.
I love that it has Azdel. I even really like that there are no slide outs (less mechanical stuff to go wrong). I like the J-lounge. I don't like that the bunk only holds 300#, seats don't swivel, that bed is NOT a queen which is not a problem for me except that every other sleeping space seems to be for either children or tiny adults. Great price though.
This is the perfect size for a couple, IMO. Personally, I'm fine with it not having an oven. I'd rather have the extra storage. Frankly, I'd get rid of the microwave too. can always use our Omnia oven to bake, roast and make casseroles...and I can take it outside to do it too.
Ya'all made me cry today. After my mom died my handicapped sister was put with family who didn't take care of her. After my dad died she came to live with me.

No Slide! No Trouble! Great little low budget Class C👍
agree and even cheaper with THE BEST PRICE IN AMERICA
Amazing price and I love no slides Andrea! :) Amazing Cargo capacity and I love the murphy bed option and that is one of the few dinettes I don't hate! Love the skylight over the bunk too!

@Tubebular wow - she cant be 42?
EDIT: Thanks for 1 LIKES :)
I rented a small Class C about this size back in 1993. It was our first RV Trip. What fun
Happy belated birthday Andrea
My dislikes: No convection microwave, the toilette could be a cassette toilet and no black tank and the seats don't swiffle.
My likes: small motorhome with enormous floorplan with the J lounge, spacious bathroom for that size RV and the price tag which makes it a great starter RV
Thank you
This is exactly what I wanted. A small C. No slides, bunk for son, bed for daughter and me and full bathroom!!
Needs an articulating or bifold bathroom door to give more room while inside and to enter. Agreed microwave convection oven needed. This unit is a great small toy hauler with backdoor! No ladder provided so Matt skips the roof tour. Twelve volt compressor fridge not a two way fridge so what about solar and battery power. Love this little unit with no slides.

I wouldn't need it for sleeping space so I was picturing tubs up above for storage as I will be full-timing. I LOVE LOVE LOVE the back door. A mini toy hauler (great place for my ebike when traveling) and wonderful views and cross ventilation when parked. Also fantastic CCC.
Likes - J-lounge, large murphybed, back door with screen, large storage inside and out.
Dislikes - tight bathroom entrance and toilet placement, no convection oven
3 loves
1. Kitchen
2. Storage
3. As you know, I love Class Bs with rear doors that are great for opening at the beach. This is the best of both worlds! I'd love to see a bigger door!
Dislikes:
1. Plastic toilet.
2. Bathroom Door should be different.
3. Bunk over cab. Personally, I'd rather have a bigger fixed TV.
Something I'd like to see is setting up the area under the bed for a desk or itd be cool if when raised it had a couch under (not a Murphy bed)
So this is my favorite class c now.
The overhead bunk bed needs 2 windows Coachmen!! I agree with Matt, it's better than a Class B. Happy Birthday Andrea!
Thank you ☺️
Great RV Perfect for a single RVer. I would need a Micro/Convection combo. I would want a flush with counter kitchen sink with covers to add more meal prep space. A slightly wider bathroom would be better. Another UA-cam review from an owner of this model showed how he removed the queen bed and installed a XL twin bed. Now he can get out of bed easier. This gives him walk through space and better access to the cabinets in the bedroom. It would allow for an Ebike to storage inside also. I have put this RV at the top of my list of RVs to check out at RV shows and dealers. Great Video!
Andrea I would remove that bathroom door and replace it with something else OR swap the hinges so it opens to kitchen...Thin person designed that door LoL
Love that you are doing some smaller entry level RV's. Wondering if you could mention what the weight limits are on fold down dinettes? With the over the cab bed having such a low weight capacity I am curious about the dinette's ability to sleep adults.
Dislikes: 1. No steps into the RV. 2. Tight bathroom. 3. Lack of oven or convection oven. 4. Plugs in kitchen area? 5. Not a fan of mini blinds in kitchens.
Likes: 1. No slides! 2. Love J shaped dinettes. 3. Nice swing arm on TV for maximum viewing. 4. Storage area/bedroom area. 5. Screen door on back door access. 6. Comes with a generator standard and is solar prepped.
Love the screen door on the back door.
Happy belated birthday Andrea. If I could afford it, I would buy it now!!!!!! I love the back door and bed placement. Do miss the ladder. That back door makes up for it though. All the space and drawers. Wow! More pluses for a 24 feet motorhome!!!!! Yes I love the Ford chassis too. Coachmen did a great job. I am keeping this one in mind when I have more money on hand.
Thank you
That is the best swing out tv I’ve seen in any coach. If the bathroom was rearranged with the sink in the corner it would be much better. Add a pocket door and that bathroom would be fine. I agree the bunk should hold more than 300, it’s really spacious up there. All coaches should have an oven or convection option. Other than these things, I love this coach.
Can’t imagine buying a Class B when this option has so much more for the money! A real bathroom! Real bedroom! And still small and nimble. Not much different than driving a U-haul. Very nice! Plastic toilet is a let down. I would put in a smaller bed, cause I don’t need a queen bed. And being a cuddler a smaller bed is OK. That would free up more room for the bathroom door. I love the rear door!! This would be perfect for a single full timer, or a close couples camper.
Kinda low key for you today Matt, hope you're feeling well bud. I cant say enough good things about small class C units. This is perfect for the small family that wants to be outdoors when camping but needs a decent mobile home base for travel and bad weather. I love the overall package but I feel some unfortunate corners were cut in the name of cost savings which hurts the quality of the final product. Would certainly consider this one though...
Likes:
1. Small class C on that Ford chassis means high load capacity. Not only can you pile a lot of stuff in the unit but when factoring in combined weights for towing you can actually tow a small boat of toy box pretty comfortably.
2. You nailed it. The back door/bed storage is awesome.
3. The j-lounge is great. When the rain does come and the kids are cooped up with the TV that's the perfect spot.
Dislikes:
1. I can put up with a small bathroom in this unit because I would shop it against class B's. But a plastic toilet on a rig with one and a half tons of cargo capacity? That's just cheap.
2. Ditto the microwave, spend a few bucks on a convection unit.
3. And the third cheap cop out.. They do need to spend some money and beef up the bunk over the cap to hold at least 450 pounds.
Happy Belated Birthday Andrea! Time has been exceedingly nice to you! You look gorgeous! Hope you have a healthy, prosperous, and blessed year!
Thank you Richard 🤗
I liked it so much that I watched the video again.
We previously owned a Coachmen Class B with a rear dinette while our kids were national competitors. It was nimble! We loved it. We loved the back door.
A few days ago my husband and I bought a used Coachmen Class C Freelander. I was wishing it had a back door! It did not come with an oven, and it only has a microwave. No outside ladder.
Re; 2021 Coachmen Freelander 22xg I LOVE what they did with the 'toy hauler' backroom conversion. Really good idea. I like the fridge size. I like the larger handle assist to get up the stairs when getting in the RV. Because it is on the Ford it may have the option for swivel seats. The Chevy does not.
I DO NOT LIKE the tiny bathroom door. I think the overhead could be a higher weight capacity, at least 350-375. Need CONVECTION microwave when there is no oven. I would prefer a porcelain toilet. There is no way to get up to the roof to check maintenance needs. I don't understand why there wasn't even a portable ladder stored below for the roof. Maybe they could design the bunk ladder and the outside rood ladder to do 'both' needs.
That has to be a 12v compressor fridge. No fins.
Manufacturer says it will last 15hrs on 1 charge
The refrigerator is 12 volt only. It is fantastic! We bought one of these from General RV in Ocala in September 2020. It is our first RV ever. It’s not a luxury RV. But it definitely is adequate. The worst part of this RV is the lack of toilet space.
Another great video--I really love this layout. Question: Lately I've been hearing the cabover bunk has 800 lbs of capacity--did they upgrade that in 2022 or 2023 from the 300 you say here?
My first reply after watching for a couple months...I like this one!
Yep it’s the right price and size for long weekends with the ability to get into small state parks. Kinda bringing back the basics to class C motor homes.
Why would you like a box with no windows?
Wow, what a great price! Dislikes are: no convection or oven, plastic toilet and the blind in the kitchen. I guess they could be swapped out?? I love the sofa/dinette, the Murphy bed for our bike storage with the ourside door, and the TV looks like it comes out far enough to be OK. Good storage, too.
Happy Belated Birthday Andrea!! Likes: I like that this is a multi-purpose RV! The back door is cool. You can carry more than sports equipment like a kayak, you can also take it to Home Depot and load some plywood or 2x4's in the back. I have to agree with all your likes/dislikes. This non-slide class C is really interesting.
Thank you
That one is a real beauty! Let others have the slides and trouble! Love the bed and spacious room! Over all big enough.
Needs a ladder on the back.
They should have just done without a sink in the bathroom... this would have increased the space.
ABSOLUTELY must have an oven or a convection oven!
Love this motor home though!
Missed you Andrea, happy belated 🎂 birthday!
Hi Matt
Like: the size, large bath, ability to haul bikes/kayak
Dislike: no oven (needs to have a convection microwave), the screen that comes out from the dash (something to go wrong).
This is a perfect RV for someone young (like my son who likes to kayak, bike, ski, hike, etc) who are very active and who want to just camp.
Thank you
Thank you for showing this one. I want a class B but the I in my head cant bring myself to spend more on a vehicle than my current house. So this size and price point work for me.
Finally, Matt! This one isn't exactly perfect for me, personally but it's closer than anything I've seen yet! Of course, I've had to settle into the fact that I'm going to have to ditch TVs and redecorate, but this little camper is just perfect!! I would just have to, like I said, ditch the boob tube, recover the valances (plain black isn't cheery by any means), cover the seats and ditch the murphy bed. I'd rather put a single cot/bed back there and have some moving around room and with that great, FANTASTIC screened door back there, I'd want it! Besides, you said it yourself, can't get the door open all the way with that huge bed. The bathroom is kind of small but the way I look at it, it just means less to clean. Getting older and looking for less 'work' anywhere I can get it ha ha. The walls are nicely covered. And kudos to Andrea for pointing out the need for a convection oven. I make a lot of okie stew and you have to have cornbread with that...can't make CB in a microwave! So I guess I'd have to change that, too. And I love that it doesn't have slide-outs. I love the options in the dinette. But when it comes to customizing it, this ones going to be quite easy. Especially with no fixed bed. I also like how it doesn't have a dashboard that looks like the cockpit in a 747. This old dog isn't up to try learning any new tricks! Just give it to me simple and easy. I just love this little RV and the price is good and looks easy to drive and handle and just enough room for this little old single lady! Right now, I have a toilet crammed between a bathtub and a big, gaudy sink vanity so I'm used to pooping cramped lol. So no problem there. Three burners on a Magic Chef...a good old name in stoves so I'd feel comfortable there. My only problem is getting from California to Florida to get it....I don't know if I could handle shipping if you did that. But congratulations! You kept trying until you showed me an RV that I could settle on! You da man!!
HB Andrea.
My 2 favorites comments on every review.
1- Say hello to Andrea....Hi Andrea!
2- Its time for the MSRP ....FIIIIIIUUUUUUU! (on class B only)
I don't own an RV but if you someday sell a FIIIUUUUU. MSRP sticker with Matt watching the MSRP price on the phone, or with the wide open eyes doing the FIIIUUUUU while looking back at Andrea, I will buy 3 one for backup and one for each of my vehicles.
👋
I like this one! I would want a convection oven, tho, & I wish the bunk could hold more weight.
Is the dashboard camera screen radio screen the way it pops in-and-out every time you turn it on and off that will break I would not want that that would be a deal breaker because if that breaks you the vehicle is useless when driving
I like no slides too. Nice size!
If I was Coachman if There’s anything I add to this RV it would be side View cameras a ladder for the back and maybe a Wi-Fi antenna and a upgraded radio . You could offer it as a option package and price it so that everyone still makes money and the consumer gets a little bit better then a base model. I know I would definitely buy one.
I loved it except the bathroom door. Perfect for two 🤩
We love the back door folding bed combo 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Three things I don't like tv placement. 2. No oven 3 bathroom. 3 thing. Storage. Table. 3. Screen door
New Mattism: “Clothes on top, Cheerios on the bottom!” Hahaha
I caught that, too. HILARIOUS!
haha
Back door and murphy bed are awesome ! Big refer great ! double sink ! This really is the best small class C !
Since I am primarily interested in a B, but have some concerns, this is great! Hopefully it's insulated well.
Our Coachmen B rear dinette van camper was made better than our current used Coachmen Class C Freelander. Class C has a better bathroom than the Class B.
This is a great entry level experience that allows you figure out what’s important to you. After a summer with this you will be content or looking to go up to a super C like the one you reviewed with Tommy B
Very nice option! If my husband would have agreed with me I would have hit the buy it now option. Love the small size, great CCC, and the back door. Close4th would be the fridge size. Dislikes mostly the microwave not being convection. Was wondering if seats swiveled. If they don't it is a con.
This might be for us...to ease into an A class fulltime. No convection oven, bunk should hold at least 500 lbs. & I'd add a flip up on the counter. Love that we can haul our Goldwing! Room for our pups and the layout/storage would work for us~ thank you for the review.
That's a really nice unit! I agree with everything you like and dislike but would like to add that I love the fact that there are NO slides! My only concern is the quality at such a low price point. Does anyone think that it would simply shake apart during the first 1000 miles??
Yay, Andrea! My wife and I have a saying. "If no Andrea, we don't press Play-a!"
😂
Rear door for a view of the lake or ocean... or golf cart!
Like back door, but needs steps for people with short legs -and a handrail !!
Great review and a good size for people who want a smaller RV
We liked the storage
We liked the dinette
But not much else
We dislike that there is no oven or convection microwave
The bathroom is not going to work for anyone who is on the big side
The weight limit on the bunk over the cab
I do not see this working for more than one smaller person !
Thank you for another great review !
This is my retirement goal. Love the full awning. Love the back door w/screen. Murphy bed is awesome
Good morning! Just passed by your place. My husband and I watch all your videos. We love them. We have a class -c RV , bum beds Jayco. We are part-timers. Want it to stop, but hubby said no. Andrea and you make a great team. Keep it up and be safe! God bless.
For the bathroom toilet probably better next to shower, have curtain open the other direction. With 3k CCC little reason it has to be plastic too. No sink covers for extra prep space. No ladder; with proper hinging could have it on cargo door and still swing that fully open. Murphy bed should have clips to hold it vertical; a big bump and it can flop over easy enough onto cargo, it looks. Not sure how much it would impact tank sizes but a loading ramp ala U-Haul would be nice for getting heavier gas or electric units into cargo area.
Like the J-lounge, simple exterior paint, awning, and fridge; the 10 cu ft better than the 8s used more often.
Nice little RV. I like the Murphy bed.
P.S I think it is a good RV for the weekend, or load up and head to the beach.
My likes: 5k tow capacity, no slide outs, the back door. Dislikes: Small head, standard microwave, low weight capacity in overhead bunk area. Did seem to have a very heavy duty tv bracket with good reach. We still think the best Class C for us is the Entegra 29K. With the only slide out being in the dinette area and plenty of clearance with it in, using the slide out remains an option. We'll be in touch. :)
Maybe the toilet should be next to the shower for more room and the sink near the entrance to the bathroom. A full size mattress instead of a queen so the bathroom door opens further. The Chevy chassis. Flip up counter extension. It is really nice, I think.
Love this motor home. Price and size. 3 things I like are j lounge, storage, and Murphy bed. 3 thing I would like to see different are kitchen counter to be 1 level with sink covers for more counter space, convection microwave and cabinet/wardrobe separated for pantry on one side and wardrobe/closet on other side.
Totally agree with ya'lls likes and dislikes. Not bad for a class c but that door to the bathroom really needs to open further. Happy belated birthday Andrea and very good review. Stay safe ya'll.
Thank you
3 things I like: J Lounge, the pop up video screen, good sized fridge. 3 things I dislike: need a 3k Inverter and lithium batteries rather than the generator, with decent solar. Need a 12v compressor fridge. Need an option of a slide out tray out the back so the bed can stay down, but use the space underneath for storage. Oh, side view monitors or side collision warning systems is a must these days.
would also like to know what safety features comes on the chasis (LKAS, ACC, etc).
It comes with a 12 volt Norcold and it’s a great refrigerator. Cools down fast and runs off of the batteries for 10 hours with no problems. We love the fridge. Matt had his fridge info completely wrong.
Why does it have 2 sets of dump valves?
One grey water tank, one black water
@@Dobermanator There are 2 grey valves and 2 black valves. There is a set on the passenger side and another set on the driver's side. I've never seen that before.
The black and grey tanks are on the passenger side, and the valve needs to be within 18 inches of the tank. So to dump the tanks, you would need to hook up your hose, then pull the valve on both sides of the RV.
I think this is my ideal RV. I love the back door by the bed, love the J lounge and I really like the color scheme of the interior so many motorhomes look really stuffy or old (even brand new) and the color scheme of this is so clean. My main issue is with the bathroom. I wonder how involved it would be to rip out the sink and replace the toilet with one that has a sink on the top of the toilet tank to save space and have more room. Agree that an oven or at least a convection microwave would have been nice. I would have really liked a window for the cab bunk too but the last two are pretty nit-picky.
Beautiful little rig. One thing I would add is a window in the back door. I’ll take one. Happy belated Birthday Andrea!!! Hope you had a good one. Stay safe guys. Cheers!!!
Amazing packaging and versatility! Great price compared to a Class B too.
I think if you switch the position of the toilet & sink, you have better leg room for sitting on the throne. Increase the workable kitchen counter space by having a flip-up cutting board to the left of the sink, just inside the door. I could foresee a floor plan without a Murphy bed just by raising the bed (and window) - creating a garage under it. As for the oven, put in a cooktop with a small oven (propane).
It is neat design to just put the bed away for more floor space. However, if a person uses that bed, may be difficult accessing the bathroom at night. Didn’t get a clue on the space around the bed.
3 Likes:
1: Mini-garage space with door and fold-up bed, and Cargo Carrying Capacity to handle the weight
2: Great price, especially compared to Class B’s
3: Nice J-lounge dinette and sofa combination
3 Dislikes:
1: Cramped bathroom
2: Weird kitchen counter
3: No rear ladder
I don;t mind the kitchen counter but I wish it had a flip up counter
This RV looks great for a fan of compact class C's.
I love how versatile this is
That is a queen. There is a video out here where a guy swapped it for a twin so it could stay down all the time and he could still get to the door.
Love the double kitchen sink and counter space
I'm glad to see Matt and Andrea together again....
Me too, they make a great team!
They do make a great team!
Yes I agree
Happy Birthday Belated Andrea..
likes:
The compressor refrigerator
Ford chassis
Azdel
Back door
Dislikes:
J-lounge, table too close
Tv placement
Pull valves on the driver side
Plastic toilet
Bunk on the cab is kinda useless 300lbs seriously
DIY look, it’s getting old fast
No convection oven
Awesome review Matt & Andrea like always 😁😁😁
Thank you
Happy birthday Andrea , Awesome storage!!! Maybe they could put the storage closet in the shower area and moved the whole bathroom up where the closet area was and the door would be easier to get into.
If they would have rearranged out the bathroom and put the commode next to the shower and the sink by the door they would’ve had a lot more legroom. But other than that it’s a fairly nice little motorhome. I would be tempted to trade my 24 footer in for that one just for the storage.
Thank you
Happy belated bday Andrea!! Now for my con list: I agree need bigger microwave that’s a convection oven ; since there is sooo much room under the bed for storage, I would have liked there to be a stackable washer and dryer in the large cabinet/wardrobe
Thank you
Not a bad look. All white with not so crazy stripes.
Happy belated birthday Andrea! Guys I agree with your likes and dislikes. I live n Virginia. I’m trying to talk my wife into coming down to the Tampa RV show.
Thank you James ☺️
This is the one that I like. The Cresstrek has the smaller refrigerator. Wishing that it could have a twin bed and cabinets above the bedroom window. I like the Chevy truck.
I love that it has Azdel. I even really like that there are no slide outs (less mechanical stuff to go wrong). I like the J-lounge. I don't like that the bunk only holds 300#, seats don't swivel, that bed is NOT a queen which is not a problem for me except that every other sleeping space seems to be for either children or tiny adults. Great price though.
loved all the visuals Matt added that i saw for the first time here ... footpounds, heights, widths, etc
Nice RV I like that there is no slide.
Thank you Matt. Happy birthday.
Thank you ☺️
Need a convection microwave, Cabinet's instead of bunk over cab, should have level kitchen counter with a flip up, for more counter space.
This is the perfect size for a couple, IMO. Personally, I'm fine with it not having an oven. I'd rather have the extra storage. Frankly, I'd get rid of the microwave too. can always use our Omnia oven to bake, roast and make casseroles...and I can take it outside to do it too.
i was thinking same thing! love the Omnia! would like a convection microwave, but not a deal breaker.
Good floorplan overall. I'd like to see a tiny bathroom sink to get more toilet space. Love the 'garage'. Wish there was a window in the garage door.
Would like to see struts on the cabinet door to keep them open for easier use.
