Just a note about the dinette. The piece under the window is an ottoman that has storage and move out to the other end. You don’t have to leave it against the window
The 3 things I like about this travel trailer: 1. the bathroom: huge shower, plenty of counter space next to the sink, and a 4 P's toilet 2. plenty of counter space between the kitchen sink and stove and the pegs in the bottom drawer to keep pots and pans from moving around while on transit 3. the layout: dinette and a sofa that is directly across from the TV in a RV that is under 30' The 3 things I don't like about this travel trailer: 1. the dinette 2. wish it was 50 amp with the option to put a second A/C unit in the bedroom 3. wish it had electric stabilizing jacks
Manual jacks have more control and people are complaining that the electrics don’t work! I use a battery drill and can set stability perfectly! Also people are having fun with the ridged steps bending the door or themselves and everyone has to wait for final leveling before entering the trailer!

Grand Design is at the top of our list but we need a shorter one. Like the slam latch doors, wet bay, and all the features of the bedroom. Dislike that it’s not Azdel, no convection microwave, and they could have put a fireplace in that living room with all of the storage in the kitchen.
I am truly grateful that Will has joined the towable channel! Matt represents me and others at 5'6" and shorter, whereas Will represents those that are 6'0" and taller. Each height has its own challenges and highpoints! Thanks Matt & Will!! And 15k subscribers!@ whoo Whhoo!!
My husband and I have a 2018 2600RB that we live in full time. Chose it for the size of the bathroom which we love. One negative we found is the lift up countertop is warping from the heat from the furnace. Have to lift it up when the furnace is running.
Love Grand Design and this model did not disappoint! One of my favorites so far!! Likes: 1. Quality of construction and warranties in the event that something does go wrong. 2. Large finished pass through storage. 3. Large awning. 4. Solid steps. 5. Love that it has a 15,000 air conditioner some competitors use the smaller 13, 500 in this size trailer. 6.

Love the bathroom!! Size of shower, counter space and toilet placement. Dislikes: 1. Dinette seating is a little weird. 2. The open shelving in the bathroom, I would prefer that it be a cupboard since it is above the toilet area (I see stuff falling into the toilet) and also sanitary reasons. 3. Non electric stabilizers.
As owners, 3 things we like, the bathroom, the fact you can access kitchen and bathroom with slide closed, the standard size queen bed. 3 things we dislike/could be improved. - control for A/C is in bedroom and can’t be access with the slide closed, no frame mounted hitch for putting bikes or rack on back, would prefer compressor Fridge
The main issue with 1 AC unit in hot areas is that if it fails, you're done. The place becomes uninhabitable pretty quickly. Love the design. The best place for the bathroom is always at the front or rear.
well designed.. For the 30 foot length the unit is packed full. bathroom is very nice. I would change the bathroom sink as others mention. I guess a person could move the house battery to the storage bay and properly vent that area. Seems to function well for a couple with no kids, older couple or plenty of space for a single. Very nice.
Three things I like...sliding door for bedroom, the pots and pans drawer, and the theater seating. Three things I dislike are...the shower door, the dinette, and the inside colors.
Likes Counter space in the kitchen Bathroom, size, storage Large awning outside Dislikes Tiny microwave I agree about weird dinette Not prepped for solar
Like this Grand Design couples model, it provides plenty of room and amenities Dislikes: 1) the "u"-shaped dinette, please make it a true U-shape with a removable table that could be used inside / outsides 2) would have liked the 50 amp because I live in the south and need the second a.c. at that price 3) Will forgot to tell Matt to be careful climbing down Love: 1) The recliners and the set up in the living room perfect for relaxing inside with plenty of room 2) good location for the power connect and drain spot, would have been nice to have a storage spot near the rear for the power cord and surge protector. 3) the kitchen design is great with lots of countertop and storage space too
Love the show, would like to see the interiors of travel trailers with the slide outs in the “in” position. There are spots that don’t allow slide outs extended. Thanks!
This is one of the best looking couple's camper I've seen. It's simple and straight forward, and has a nice clean look. So it's easy to agree with the giant rear bathroom (I'm always a fan of rear baths). I like the great layout in the kitchen, and all the storage space. The big awning is awesome as well. I'm glad they didn't try to squeeze an outdoor kitchen. It's just not needed on this model. The recliners facing the TV is great, even though I'm not much of a TV watcher in my camper. Things I didn't like were hit on my Matt, that the dinette was odd, I'd rather just have a table and movable chairs, there's no need for the extra storage. I don't worry about auto leveling jacks, but that'd been nice. I'll agree with the 30 amp, as stated, is not good enough. This is 100% correct, the camper should be 50 amp. Of course, I've camped in plenty of places that only had 30 amp service. So I couldn't run both my ACs. But in this case, because the bedroom door would, if shut, block you off from the roof AC. I'd prefer to have two ACs. It wouldn't be the first time I've made a window air, with outside plug, that went into one of the bedroom windows (I grew up in Florida, and if you don't have shade, one roof AC will not cut it). Nice camper though, despite these minor things. Oh and I still want a convention oven microwave, always. In the years I've been in a camper (even full time), I can count one hand, the use of the gas oven.
Enjoyed your entertaining review. This is a great couples trailer under 30-ft with room for the grandkids to sleep-over! We love our Cougar 21RBS, but want both a dining area and recliners. Overall, we really like everything about this trailer, except: 1. No motorized jacks option. This will be a down-grade for us. When you’re setting up or breaking down in the rain, motorized remote jacks are a God-send. 2. TV could have been positioned below cabinets and more at eye level. 3. No 50-amp option. Glad you pointed this out. Now that my wife and I are retired, we plan to spend a lot of our travels in the South. None of these are deal-breakers. Great review, guys!
I'm really liking this model. LIKE: *Bathroom *Storage *Built in around the entertainment center. Very clean looking. DISLIKES (only 2!): *30 AMP. 50 AMP is an option on other Imagine models but not this one. Must be a reason for that, but I definitely would want 50 AMP. *No option for TV hookup in the bedroom (more of a personal preference because we're TV watchers) Many comments about the dinette. Matt didn't fully explain what the back of the dinette seat is; it's a removable ottoman and quite ingenious. Also, the free standing table (which is in the model Matt reviewed) is an option.
I agree completely on the 30 amp, that was my major dealbreaker on an otherwise great trailer. I’m from Ocala, Florida and need that second AC dearly. Would love to see a review on the imagine 2670MK if one is available!
Wow! This looks like the perfect travel trailer for me. It almost makes me want to trade in my SUV for a pick-em-up-truck. Likes: 1) I love the fact that they put all of this into a unit that can be towed by pretty much any pickup, not just the big ones. 2) Bedroom. A 60x80 bed that you can walk around, and good storage for a trailer under 30feet. 3) Bathroom. Space to do everything you need to do in there without banging into counters or doors or whatever. 4) Kitchen. Big sink, good counter space *plus* the flip up next to the sink, microwave AND oven, good size fridge, plenty of storage, especially that huge drawer with the pegs. 5) Living area. The theater seats directly across from the TV, with storage space for whatever under the TV. Dislikes: When I do these lists, I try to pick bigger things, especially things that were clear design or style choices, but I have none. Seriously, I'm not kidding here, I have no big dislikes, nothing even remotely close to a deal breaker. So here goes … 1) I guess the style isn't perfect for my tastes, with the colors and materials inside, but I didn't see anything that I hated. 2) I think I'd always like to have solar just to have more options if I want to be off grid for more than 48 hours, but it looks like that could be added. 3) The roof looked like it had a lot of bubbles and uneven areas on it. I think that I prefer fiberglass roofs, as they always look so clean and solid.
Love the countertop color and backsplash. Finally, a trailer with a modern colored FULL backsplash! Love the large pots and pans drawer. Love the large storage area under the TV for pantry or linens. Much more useful than a fireplace. Love the Euro design cabinetry (except on the Refrigerator door. That was dumb. Should have been solid color).
We're a 5th wheel couple but this is definitely a nice couples trailer. I know i would be comfortable in this. I do agree that the seating on the dinette is odd but for a couple it's fine. Lots of storage in this unit.
You should read comments The back seat is a removable storage ottoman It allows more leg room under table and is used for seating on the outside of table or over by the sofa
Ha-ha...chickened out on the roof this time! I finally saw how you got down with others. I cannot do that so better find another ladder and stronger heart! I have a bunkhouse imagine...constant repairs. it just never ends. And i see the cables to the valves to the tanks are not enclosed. They corrode and stick shut. Never again! I think the cushions can be turned.
I wish they had a second door to access the bedroom, not sure if that slide would block the extra wide bedroom door or not but a second door would be nice regardless
Love kitchen counter extension. kitchen is great. Love bathroom like theater seats across from tv dislike. dinette table. make it smaller. This is a couples RV (two people). could even make the tv bigger by taking a little space from the large bathroom. No trash receptor place. No need for such a large awning. Especially when you don't have anything extra like an outside kitchen, tv, etc. Make awning smaller. I wish even these lower priced RVs would start putting awning style windows so they can be open even during rain. Also bug screens would be nice so windows can be open without bugs getting in. If it raised the price a little, so be it.
Hi Matt and Will! Love this towable! Don’t like colors of dinette and not having power jacks. Other than that it’s a great towable or travel trailer. Love the bathroom. Thank you Matt and Will.
Its a couples dinette so the back side was used to just give place to store a automan that you will obviously need for support at the bottom of reclined couch for all those over 6 ft tall.
Please start having will sit on toilet also. He is a big guy so if there is room for him as well that would be super. Haha he made that recliner look small. But it helps with scale . It really does.
Matt great job 👍 ! agree with you on the dislike they need to put 2 13.5k Ac units in on the 30 amps my second problem with it is it doesn’t have any insulation for the water lines there next to metal frame and loose I just saw one took apart and was discussed with what grand design did under neath the belly
Nothing big and fancy just small and great. I like it! Liking the flip up counter extention, the toilet and shower and the bedroom. Kinda not feeling good about the dinette, covered refrigerator and I do not have a third dislike. Good video guys. Stay safe ya'll.
Really liked the rear bathroom. Overall floor plan was good! Unfortunately, too heavy for my truck. Would like to see something smaller (shorter/lighter), with a front Murphy bed, with flip down couch, maintaining the rest of the bedroom design; smaller, j-shaped dinette, slightly larger fridge. Willing to sacrifice theater seats for larger fridge. 2023 models?
I really like the Grand Design trailers. Build quality seems to be really good and I hear their customer service is second to none! Love the interior, cabinetry, bathroom is really awesome, nice appliances, love the storage, the dinette is great and I like the fact that you can take the table outside to use if you decide to grill out, the kitchen is great too, the sink is my favorite, the pull out sprayer is great too, the theater seats are really nice, the awning is as big as you can get. My only real dislike is the small closet space. I live in my trailer so I need more closet space.
I still like seeing it with sides closed... Incase there’s no room to open out... just for a quick sleep, breakfast and go... can you get to everything?- with it closed? Can you fix lunch with it all closed... air stream has managed it all this time... slide outs are quite nice when staying longer and if a kid comes along. Does the TV tilt down? The recliners look decent for a RV But they need to be wider and taller and more foot length option for the tall people. I’m 5’3” but I love to curl up sideways in my recliner. Recliners and RV furniture in general never looks “durable” and with the price paid for all the flying of a travel RV. People need RV to hold up twice as long as the payment plans. Someday I’d like to see a mother daughter floor plan... I have great ideas if anyone wants to hear ideas from me. Matt... if you ever travel to Oregon Let me know.. I could be a tour guide or give you many of my favorite places to visit... especially the lesser known best places for a family to stay at the Oregon Coast. I’ve lived in Savannah for a minute... but nothing beats the Oregon Coast beauty and the wave power.
ps..... One day they should make a trailer without all the stuff on the top... as in... nothing on top except solar panels and a few easy open two way vents. They need to start making the RVs boon-dock ready... and it’d be nice to see the undersides not particleboard and should be sealed up so there’s no way for vermin to get in and no water damage from traveling down a rain soaked road. Also a minivan ought to be able to tow a basic RV such as this.
I agree with Matt very much because I walk with a cane and it’s hard for me I wish it had the leveling self-leveling on it because that is a very nice travel trailer and I like it a lot the color is not so much but I do like the layout
I could be very comfortable in this one! Love the bedroom and bathroom. I’d like a fireplace though and a second ac unit and I wish the dinette was actually a regular one.
Nice Review Guys.. I have 4 dislikes.. 1. Didn't See any USB ports.. 2. SMALL microwave.. 3. No Daytime Shades.. Keep up the great work.. 4. I didn't see where the outside TV would go (Besides a Table 😁)
We dig it overall! Likes- kitchen is great, bathroom is amazing, theatre seating is the best! Dislikes- carpet, no place for garbage, the dinette is crap. Also, needs a king bed but I understand not having one.
Educate yourself on the features of the dinette It is actually very nice. Plenary of videos online showing it The back is a storage ottoman that is removable
I'm not looking to see if this was already stated in the comments, but the real of the dinette that was mentioned to be for small children is an ottoman that can be removed and placed in front of the recliners or at the end of the table for extra seating. With the ottoman removed, the dinette is a traditional bench seat style.
I love this channel, thanks for doing it. Although it seems like you are rushing through the trailers. My 3 likes: 1. the fold down counter in the Kitchen, 2. that huge drawer in the kitchen 3. the big awning. 3 things I dislike 1. the manual jacks, 2. the tiny microwave, 3. the funky pretend dinette back seating.
This is a very nice Travel Trailer. I would buy this in a heart beat. Likes: Bathroom is phenomenal. Excellent kitchen space Love the layout and the cabinets. Dislikes: The power plug in the kitchen is at the sink FAR from where the space is where you would use it. If it was moved to the other side it would perfect. The way it is I would need an extension chord to make coffee running down the sink line, Nope! The dinette works for us but if there is a guest there is no butt room for them. Very strange design.
I think Grand Design has the best floor plans overall across their entire line! I agree that dinette is a bit weird. Just make it a booth dinette. Grand design is one of the best insulated trailers in the business. The roof insulation is the best. One 15,000 btu ac is probably enough. I would like to see Azdel used in this trailer. I don’t understand why they don’t. They’re owned by Winnebego which uses it in their RVs.
Nice trailer, I do not mind the leveling system, but the area around the head of bed needs better area to charge phones tablets, etc... And I know it's an inexpensive trailer but sorry to say it does look a little cheap inside and out I know it has a great furnishings but I don't know it reminds me of the older trailers
I agree with y'all's likes and dislikes. Why is it that an affordable travel trailer can have cargo doors that open all th way, but a lot of big high-end rigs only open halfway making you get on you knees to access your stuff? @ I'm 6'2" x 240. LOVE THE BIG BOY APPROVED!
I love everything about this travel trailer except the length and weight. Having a Grand Cherokee, it's just too much weight and being solo, a bit too long............ but it is gorgeous.
I like the layout. Feels more roomy than you'd think, just looking at it from the exterior. My 3's: Likes: 1. The bathroom. I like everything except the cubby holes. Too easy for stuff to fall out. 2. The dinette. I agree with the cushion comment, but I like the fact that it's movable and has more options for using it. 3. Roominess of main living area. Dislikes: 1. I do not like the counter extension placement. Someone is going to ram into it when coming out of the bedroom. 2. Wish the cabinets had adjustable shelves. 3. Would like auto stabilizing jacks. Also, I really like the euro styling. Thanks.
That oddly shallow back portion of the dinnette isn't actually intended for dinette seating. It's actually an ottoman/bench. It just so happens that that location is somewhat out of the way. You can easily just slide it out put it on the other side of the table or put it in front of the sofa, or even remove it from the trailer entirely.
I like the open feel. The wide doors inside or they sure look wider as well as the entry door too. Dinette is horrible. Who gave that the thumbs up at the factory?
Great job Will!!! Matt, you need to channel Andrea more when you do the kitchens, you’re going too fast. 3 things I love: just about everything, especially the bathroom, except... 3 things I don’t like: agree I don’t like the manual jacks, think they stopped short there; agree there should be 2 ACs; think the windows in the master should be larger
OMGoodness! I love this trailer! The euro cabinets, the wide doorway and door into the bedroom, the recliners, the kitchen size, the bathroom size, etc. I don't like the little back seat of the dinette. I'm mean...why? But, with just 2 of us I don't really care. And, the moving table is nice. Outside, yes, it needs the leveling jacks. And, definitely I'd want 2 a/c units. But, really, it's great 👍
I really like the dinette. The ottoman pulls out and can be used to get more people around the table. I'm not crazy about how you can't access the bedroom with the slide closed or that there isn't an option for a 12V fridge.
Of course liked the bathroom Like the amount of counter space Like ladder for roof maint Did not like dinette area ...small seating and no overhead storage Did not like small microwave Wish had a pull out pantry
Everyone's talking like they don't know about the free standing table and chairs... My 2020 had the dinette before I took it out but it already had the tie-downs for the open set as well. Anyway, 2020 and 2021 pebble interior MUCH more pleasant than earlier.
Matt, Will is just an inch taller than me. Please let him do the toilet tests too. That being said, this will be a first for me. I cannot think of any dislikes. I'll just add three honorable mentions where tiny adjustments can be made. Dislikes: #1 Again, that microwave. It's a glorified popcorn popper. It's not big enough to really do anything else. #2 The ceiling height looked a little short. #3 No power stabilizing jacks. I will put my reason at the bottom along with a kudos to Grand Design. Likes: #1 Yes, that bathroom is perfect. Large shower. perfect toilet placement, large vanity. #2 Over all the kitchen is a winner. sufficient prep area and that huge drawer below is a winner. #3 The width of all doors. Very handicap accessible. I think something you might have missed, this appears to not only be a couple's camper but it appears to be designed with handicap accessibility in mind. You can easily roll a wheel chair into the bathroom and also directly up to the bed. The shower didn't appear to have a big step up and can easily fit a handicap shower seat. The only other thing they could have to make it handicap friendly is the power stabilizer jacks. Great job Grand Design for making a handicapable travel trailer.
Wish more travel trailers had bedroom closet wardrobe slides. Like the big sink. In my opinion the reason most rv users don’t use their oven is because of impossible to light pilot lights,not enough height to cook a roast or chicken, and not enough exhaust to stand the heat during warm weather.
Just a note about the dinette. The piece under the window is an ottoman that has storage and move out to the other end. You don’t have to leave it against the window
The 3 things I like about this travel trailer:
1. the bathroom: huge shower, plenty of counter space next to the sink, and a 4 P's toilet
2. plenty of counter space between the kitchen sink and stove and the pegs in the bottom drawer to keep pots and pans from moving around while on transit
3. the layout: dinette and a sofa that is directly across from the TV in a RV that is under 30'
The 3 things I don't like about this travel trailer:
1. the dinette
2. wish it was 50 amp with the option to put a second A/C unit in the bedroom
3. wish it had electric stabilizing jacks
Getting one of these, 2021 this week. Only comment regarding jacks, electric would be convenient but 4 more things to replace. I'm good with manual.
Manual jacks have more control and people are complaining that the electrics don’t work! I use a battery drill and can set stability perfectly! Also people are having fun with the ridged steps bending the door or themselves and everyone has to wait for final leveling before entering the trailer!

We have this camper. We LOVE it!!!
In 1992, I had a 1977 Cadillac Coupe Deville. It came with the exact same size tires!
Will is right
Auto leveling
Rear hitch for utility rack
Blue tooth sound
No carpet on slide
Nice unit!
Thanks for reviewing this travel trailer! We love the floor plan! Our kids are grown and we don't need all the extra beds. Good job guys!
The main issue with 1 AC unit in hot areas is that if it fails, you're done. The place becomes uninhabitable pretty quickly.

Three things I like...sliding door for bedroom, the pots and pans drawer, and the theater seating. Three things I dislike are...the shower door, the dinette, and the inside colors.

Like this Grand Design couples model, it provides plenty of room and amenities
Dislikes:

2) would have liked the 50 amp because I live in the south and need the second a.c. at that price

3) the kitchen design is great with lots of countertop and storage space too
The inside piece of the dinette actually comes out to sit on the other side
@@2KrazyKampers okay, cool
Good space for the size and price of the trailer. Good kitchen area too.
👍

Enjoyed your entertaining review. This is a great couples trailer under 30-ft with room for the grandkids to sleep-over! We love our Cougar 21RBS, but want both a dining area and recliners. Overall, we really like everything about this trailer, except:
1. No motorized jacks option. This will be a down-grade for us. When you’re setting up or breaking down in the rain, motorized remote jacks are a God-send.
2. TV could have been positioned below cabinets and more at eye level.
3. No 50-amp option. Glad you pointed this out. Now that my wife and I are retired, we plan to spend a lot of our travels in the South.
None of these are deal-breakers.
Great review, guys!
Thanks for pointing out the 50amp prep for the A/C not being available.
I'm really liking this model.
LIKE:
*Bathroom
*Storage
*Built in around the entertainment center. Very clean looking.
DISLIKES (only 2!):
*30 AMP. 50 AMP is an option on other Imagine models but not this one. Must be a reason for that, but I definitely would want 50 AMP.
*No option for TV hookup in the bedroom (more of a personal preference because we're TV watchers)
Many comments about the dinette. Matt didn't fully explain what the back of the dinette seat is; it's a removable ottoman and quite ingenious. Also, the free standing table (which is in the model Matt reviewed) is an option.
I agree completely on the 30 amp, that was my major dealbreaker on an otherwise great trailer. I’m from Ocala, Florida and need that second AC dearly.
Would love to see a review on the imagine 2670MK if one is available!
We’ve been camping with our 2600 in south Florida and i can tell you the one AC has been fine. Bedroom was freezing last week and it was 95 degrees
Wow! This looks like the perfect travel trailer for me. It almost makes me want to trade in my SUV for a pick-em-up-truck.
Likes:
1) I love the fact that they put all of this into a unit that can be towed by pretty much any pickup, not just the big ones.
2) Bedroom. A 60x80 bed that you can walk around, and good storage for a trailer under 30feet.
3) Bathroom. Space to do everything you need to do in there without banging into counters or doors or whatever.
4) Kitchen. Big sink, good counter space *plus* the flip up next to the sink, microwave AND oven, good size fridge, plenty of storage, especially that huge drawer with the pegs.
5) Living area. The theater seats directly across from the TV, with storage space for whatever under the TV.
Dislikes:
When I do these lists, I try to pick bigger things, especially things that were clear design or style choices, but I have none. Seriously, I'm not kidding here, I have no big dislikes, nothing even remotely close to a deal breaker. So here goes …
1) I guess the style isn't perfect for my tastes, with the colors and materials inside, but I didn't see anything that I hated.
2) I think I'd always like to have solar just to have more options if I want to be off grid for more than 48 hours, but it looks like that could be added.
3) The roof looked like it had a lot of bubbles and uneven areas on it. I think that I prefer fiberglass roofs, as they always look so clean and solid.
Thanks for the reviews Matt. I’ve learned so much! When I buy, I will know exactly what I want.
Love the countertop color and backsplash. Finally, a trailer with a modern colored FULL backsplash!
Love the large pots and pans drawer.
Love the large storage area under the TV for pantry or linens. Much more useful than a fireplace.
Love the Euro design cabinetry (except on the Refrigerator door. That was dumb. Should have been solid color).
Perfect for two
Hello Matt, would you mind asking GD when will they use Azdel?
I agree with your likes and dislikes. Overall, I love this travel trailer. It is great.
We're a 5th wheel couple but this is definitely a nice couples trailer. I know i would be comfortable in this. I do agree that the seating on the dinette is odd but for a couple it's fine.
Lots of storage in this unit.
You should read comments
The back seat is a removable storage ottoman
It allows more leg room under table and is used for seating on the outside of table or over by the sofa
Ha-ha...chickened out on the roof this time! I finally saw how you got down with others. I cannot do that so better find another ladder and stronger heart! I have a bunkhouse imagine...constant repairs. it just never ends. And i see the cables to the valves to the tanks are not enclosed. They corrode and stick shut. Never again! I think the cushions can be turned.
I wish they had a second door to access the bedroom, not sure if that slide would block the extra wide bedroom door or not but a second door would be nice regardless
Love kitchen counter extension. kitchen is great.
Love bathroom
like theater seats across from tv
dislike.
dinette table. make it smaller. This is a couples RV (two people). could even make the tv bigger by taking a little space from the large bathroom.
No trash receptor place.
No need for such a large awning. Especially when you don't have anything extra like an outside kitchen, tv, etc. Make awning smaller.
I wish even these lower priced RVs would start putting awning style windows so they can be open even during rain. Also bug screens would be nice so windows can be open without bugs getting in. If it raised the price a little, so be it.
I really like this model 😮
Hi Matt and Will!
Love this towable! Don’t like colors of dinette and not having power jacks. Other than that it’s a great towable or travel trailer. Love the bathroom. Thank you Matt and Will.
Its a couples dinette so the back side was used to just give place to store a automan that you will obviously need for support at the bottom of reclined couch for all those over 6 ft tall.
Please start having will sit on toilet also. He is a big guy so if there is room for him as well that would be super. Haha he made that recliner look small. But it helps with scale . It really does.
Will seemed really concerned when Matt climbed up the ladder. LOL.......just kidding.
Matt great job 👍 ! agree with you on the dislike they need to put 2 13.5k Ac units in on the 30 amps my second problem with it is it doesn’t have any insulation for the water lines there next to metal frame and loose I just saw one took apart and was discussed with what grand design did under neath the belly
Nothing big and fancy just small and great. I like it! Liking the flip up counter extention, the toilet and shower and the bedroom. Kinda not feeling good about the dinette, covered refrigerator and I do not have a third dislike. Good video guys. Stay safe ya'll.
I like that the dinette with the ottoman and removable table. I too wish they has a 50amp and 2nd AC prep.
Really liked the rear bathroom. Overall floor plan was good! Unfortunately, too heavy for my truck. Would like to see something smaller (shorter/lighter), with a front Murphy bed, with flip down couch, maintaining the rest of the bedroom design; smaller, j-shaped dinette, slightly larger fridge. Willing to sacrifice theater seats for larger fridge. 2023 models?
Fantastic review on this one. Probably my favourite layout thus far.
Are you planning on providing a review on imagine 3110 by grand design. I like the floor plan but cannot find any reviews.
I love seeing Will in the shower to show size for taller people. Need to see more Will approved showers and bathrooms with 4P toilets!
I like the kitchen, bathroom, and the theatre seats. I don't like that there's no solid surface countertops, dinette, and 1 ac.
I really like the Grand Design trailers. Build quality seems to be really good and I hear their customer service is second to none! Love the interior, cabinetry, bathroom is really awesome, nice appliances, love the storage, the dinette is great and I like the fact that you can take the table outside to use if you decide to grill out, the kitchen is great too, the sink is my favorite, the pull out sprayer is great too, the theater seats are really nice, the awning is as big as you can get. My only real dislike is the small closet space. I live in my trailer so I need more closet space.
I still like seeing it with sides closed... Incase there’s no room to open out... just for a quick sleep, breakfast and go... can you get to everything?- with it closed? Can you fix lunch with it all closed... air stream has managed it all this time... slide outs are quite nice when staying longer and if a kid comes along.
Does the TV tilt down?
The recliners look decent for a RV
But they need to be wider and taller and more foot length option for the tall people. I’m 5’3” but I love to curl up sideways in my recliner. Recliners and RV furniture in general never looks “durable” and with the price paid for all the flying of a travel RV. People need RV to hold up twice as long as the payment plans.
Someday I’d like to see a mother daughter floor plan... I have great ideas if anyone wants to hear ideas from me.
Matt... if you ever travel to Oregon
Let me know.. I could be a tour guide or give you many of my favorite places to visit... especially the lesser known best places for a family to stay at the Oregon Coast. I’ve lived in Savannah for a minute... but nothing beats the Oregon Coast beauty and the wave power.
ps.....
One day they should make a trailer without all the stuff on the top... as in... nothing on top except solar panels and a few easy open two way vents. They need to start making the RVs boon-dock ready... and it’d be nice to see the undersides not particleboard and should be sealed up so there’s no way for vermin to get in and no water damage from traveling down a rain soaked road.
Also a minivan ought to be able to tow a basic RV such as this.
I agree with Matt very much because I walk with a cane and it’s hard for me I wish it had the leveling self-leveling on it because that is a very nice travel trailer and I like it a lot the color is not so much but I do like the layout
Flagstaff 25fbls is similar but it's under 26' also with a wardrobe slide.
I could be very comfortable in this one! Love the bedroom and bathroom.
I’d like a fireplace though and a second ac unit and I wish the dinette was actually a regular one.
Nice Review Guys.. I have 4 dislikes.. 1. Didn't See any USB ports.. 2. SMALL microwave..
3. No Daytime Shades.. Keep up the great work.. 4. I didn't see where the outside TV would go (Besides a Table 😁)
Will is a nice addition to the team.
Matt, regarding the Dinette, the inner cushion actually comes out and you can place at the end!
Awesome review! Totally agree with your likes and dislikes. We previously considered this floor plan. Love Grand Design!
We dig it overall!
Likes- kitchen is great, bathroom is amazing, theatre seating is the best!
Dislikes- carpet, no place for garbage, the dinette is crap.
Also, needs a king bed but I understand not having one.
Educate yourself on the features of the dinette
It is actually very nice. Plenary of videos online showing it
The back is a storage ottoman that is removable
You done good Will.
No problem with this one. It's terrific. TFS! 😀
Grand design kills it
I'm not looking to see if this was already stated in the comments, but the real of the dinette that was mentioned to be for small children is an ottoman that can be removed and placed in front of the recliners or at the end of the table for extra seating. With the ottoman removed, the dinette is a traditional bench seat style.
I love this channel, thanks for doing it. Although it seems like you are rushing through the trailers. My 3 likes: 1. the fold down counter in the Kitchen, 2. that huge drawer in the kitchen 3. the big awning. 3 things I dislike 1. the manual jacks, 2. the tiny microwave, 3. the funky pretend dinette back seating.
Love this Trailer!! Great video!!
This is a very nice Travel Trailer. I would buy this in a heart beat.
Likes:
Bathroom is phenomenal.
Excellent kitchen space
Love the layout and the cabinets.
Dislikes:
The power plug in the kitchen is at the sink FAR from where the space is where you would use it. If it was moved to the other side it would perfect. The way it is I would need an extension chord to make coffee running down the sink line, Nope!
The dinette works for us but if there is a guest there is no butt room for them. Very strange design.
I think Grand Design has the best floor plans overall across their entire line! I agree that dinette is a bit weird. Just make it a booth dinette. Grand design is one of the best insulated trailers in the business. The roof insulation is the best. One 15,000 btu ac is probably enough. I would like to see Azdel used in this trailer. I don’t understand why they don’t. They’re owned by Winnebego which uses it in their RVs.
Love the bathroom! Wish the colors were lighter. Layout is great
I love the whole bathroom and the bedroom. Glad to see a nice travel trailer without bunk beds. Not everyone wants that.
I really like the floor plan tons of storage
Nice trailer, I do not mind the leveling system, but the area around the head of bed needs better area to charge phones tablets, etc... And I know it's an inexpensive trailer but sorry to say it does look a little cheap inside and out I know it has a great furnishings but I don't know it reminds me of the older trailers
I agree with y'all's likes and dislikes. Why is it that an affordable travel trailer can have cargo doors that open all th way, but a lot of big high-end rigs only open halfway making you get on you knees to access your stuff? @ I'm 6'2" x 240. LOVE THE BIG BOY APPROVED!
I just bought one of these 🎉
Those are barn doors not pocket doors, no pocket. Great job Wil
I love everything about this travel trailer except the length and weight. Having a Grand Cherokee, it's just too much weight and being solo, a bit too long............ but it is gorgeous.
Yeah Will!! you got it right. You are doing a fantastic job.🤗
I like the layout. Feels more roomy than you'd think, just looking at it from the exterior.
My 3's:
Likes:
1. The bathroom. I like everything except the cubby holes. Too easy for stuff to fall out.
2. The dinette. I agree with the cushion comment, but I like the fact that it's movable and has more options for using it.
3. Roominess of main living area.
Dislikes:
1. I do not like the counter extension placement. Someone is going to ram into it when coming out of the bedroom.
2. Wish the cabinets had adjustable shelves.
3. Would like auto stabilizing jacks.
Also, I really like the euro styling.
Thanks.
That oddly shallow back portion of the dinnette isn't actually intended for dinette seating. It's actually an ottoman/bench. It just so happens that that location is somewhat out of the way. You can easily just slide it out put it on the other side of the table or put it in front of the sofa, or even remove it from the trailer entirely.
It's a nice trailer. But I would like a fireplace under the TV.
Matt would you please push once on the LED lights and see if you can turn them on and off by touching them....thank you so much....
Wow! This is a great rv, I could see myself in one! Awesome!!!
I love the spacious bathroom
Wish I had seen this before I got my Jayco , this is a very nice travel trailer.
I wish there were more/bigger windows in the bedroom area to bring natural sunlight. Otherwise, great trailer.
I like the open feel. The wide doors inside or they sure look wider as well as the entry door too. Dinette is horrible. Who gave that the thumbs up at the factory?
Back seat in the dinette is a removable seat/ottoman. It is made to sit at the end of the dinette if needed. Also flips open for storage.
Great job Will!!! Matt, you need to channel Andrea more when you do the kitchens, you’re going too fast.
3 things I love: just about everything, especially the bathroom, except...
3 things I don’t like: agree I don’t like the manual jacks, think they stopped short there; agree there should be 2 ACs; think the windows in the master should be larger
OMGoodness! I love this trailer! The euro cabinets, the wide doorway and door into the bedroom, the recliners, the kitchen size, the bathroom size, etc. I don't like the little back seat of the dinette. I'm mean...why? But, with just 2 of us I don't really care. And, the moving table is nice. Outside, yes, it needs the leveling jacks. And, definitely I'd want 2 a/c units. But, really, it's great 👍
I really like the dinette. The ottoman pulls out and can be used to get more people around the table. I'm not crazy about how you can't access the bedroom with the slide closed or that there isn't an option for a 12V fridge.
I love the storage and love the layout
Great work on the interior from Grand Design. Really like how it looks
Of course liked the bathroom
Like the amount of counter space
Like ladder for roof maint
Did not like dinette area ...small seating and no overhead storage
Did not like small microwave
Wish had a pull out pantry
Everyone's talking like they don't know about the free standing table and chairs... My 2020 had the dinette before I took it out but it already had the tie-downs for the open set as well. Anyway, 2020 and 2021 pebble interior MUCH more pleasant than earlier.
Matt,
Will is just an inch taller than me. Please let him do the toilet tests too. That being said, this will be a first for me. I cannot think of any dislikes. I'll just add three honorable mentions where tiny adjustments can be made.
Dislikes:
#1 Again, that microwave. It's a glorified popcorn popper. It's not big enough to really do anything else.
#2 The ceiling height looked a little short.
#3 No power stabilizing jacks. I will put my reason at the bottom along with a kudos to Grand Design.
Likes:
#1 Yes, that bathroom is perfect. Large shower. perfect toilet placement, large vanity.
#2 Over all the kitchen is a winner. sufficient prep area and that huge drawer below is a winner.
#3 The width of all doors. Very handicap accessible.
I think something you might have missed, this appears to not only be a couple's camper but it appears to be designed with handicap accessibility in mind. You can easily roll a wheel chair into the bathroom and also directly up to the bed. The shower didn't appear to have a big step up and can easily fit a handicap shower seat. The only other thing they could have to make it handicap friendly is the power stabilizer jacks. Great job Grand Design for making a handicapable travel trailer.
Wish more travel trailers had bedroom closet wardrobe slides. Like the big sink. In my opinion the reason most rv users don’t use their oven is because of impossible to light pilot lights,not enough height to cook a roast or chicken, and not enough exhaust to stand the heat during warm weather.
All of the new rv ovens have auto ignition on the ovens now
