We bought our brand new 2021.5 Berkshire XLT 45A (sightly different kitchen) back in July '21 and still haven't been able to use it. It spent more than 4 months at the factory with Forest River, Freightliner, and Morryde having to come together to repair the very tweaked frame from the factory. It was so tweaked that the rock gard (full width mudflap) drug the ground on the driver side while being over 3" off of the ground on the passenger. Forest River has been more than accommodating in trying to fix the issues but after all of those months they brought it back with a leaking generator (that's never been used) and a squeal coming from the engine that Cummins said is aftermarket and was caused by Freightliner by adding a pulley to run the side radiator. So after buying this coach brand new in Georgia, bringing it to Elkhart for 4 months then to Cummins immediately apon bring returned, it still may need to head to Gaffney, SC to Freightliner to get fixed before it can be returned to Elkhart to finish some missed items that weren't repaired in the 4 months it was there. We're hoping to use this brand new coach for the first time before it's one year birthday. That would be nice. Even when buying new, if you are spending as much as a house on an RV please get the RV inspected before you sign the papers. Otherwise, you may get a half million dollar lemon. Great video Matt and Andrea!
Oh no! I'm so sorry that you are going through that. I can't imagine spending that much money on something that you can't use! I heard about an attorney regarding lemon law on RV's. Sorry I can't remember the name, but maybe you can Google it. Good luck!
💔 I was listening to a podcast on UA-cam. I think it is called RV Road Show. The gentleman that does the show used to own a camp ground in Conroe TX. Called Big Chef RV Resort. He had a couple on talking about a RV built to spec for them. They had planned on going full time. Threw the entire build process, they kept stating a specific weight that they wanted to haul along with full tanks. Long story short, the manufacturer fell very short of there goal. Many of months had passed threw the anticipated wait for there new RV as well as money. Finally, they went to court and were reimbursed the money as well as an additional $200,000 Once completed the company disowned the customer rather than correcting the problem. Document everything. Time & dates photos. As much as posable. Also, who said what time & date. Like they say, He who holds the pen rules. Good luck.🙏
@@joeblow3939 Thanks for sharing this. I'm tired of RV companies building junk and then selling it for 1/2 a million dollars, even $50,000. They need to be held accountable. I watch these videos and the majority of them look like they are cheap but pretty. You can put lipstick on a pig, but it's still a pig!
I was interested in this particular RV but after reading about your problems I would never buy one. They should have replaced your RV after 3 months in my opinion and given you compensation for the loss of usage. It’s appalling to have a lemon 🍋 and not be given the right service. I’ll never buy this brand new or used 😳
I agree with Andrea, the kitchen is weird. I think it’s how they have the induction cooktop; if they rotated it 90° so the burners are left and right it would be better. I also agree with Andrea in the bifold bunkbed doors. Sliders / pocket doors would make more sense. Like I’ve mentioned in other reviews; the dual sinks in the bathroom is stupid. There isn’t enough room for two people in the bathroom. They could scrap the one on the right, move the toilet over, put the stackable washer and dryer where the toilet currently sits, and make a BIG shower.
usually I agree with Andrea, but I love this kitchen, I'd rather have the narrow walk way and the deep counter. The entire look of this RV is just my cup of tea, good job!
If you're wondering, all that extra stuff in the wet bay is a distribution manifold. You use it to turn off water to any part of the RV without having to turn off all the water. So say the showers leaking, you turn off water to it until you can get it fixed. On the other hand it's a lot more valves and connections that can also leak.
Missing the oven in the kitchen super important for a family RV , I don’t know why always the toilet 🚽 is on diagonal position when there’s space in the side, I don’t like the master shower there is space for a rectangle or more square shower, ANDREA I don’t know if you noticed the the rear balances matched with the master bathroom comforter everything looks good with some exceptions and it’s to dark inside I prefers different color doors and cabinetry kind of the BMW lighter color and shiny finish 👋🏻🙏😷
Just a comment from someone who lives in an area that gets snow. Our coach has the super shiny porcelain floor tiles. Be very aware if you have snow on your boots and enter the coach, those tiles are a slipping/falling hazard. They get very cold and once the snow/melted snow hits them, they turn into a skating rink. We put a floor runner down the length of the coach which really helped.
That's a big motor coach! Where is the '2nd bedoom?' LIkes: two toilets, ceiling fan in master BR, wind sensor on awning, slide-out tray pass thru storage, CCC (wow), televator, king bed, heated flooring. Dislikes: bunk beds, tv over cab, weird place for a 'fireplace,' no oven, huge motorhome and only a 2 burner stovetop?!, shower. Bunk beds aren't, imho, a 'bedroom.'
With Andrea on the "kitchen" space. I had a 2007 Coachman Aurora 37' with a little more counter space than that. Depth is fine, but width is essential. Yes, you can use the dinette top, and you will, but for this price and the otherwise top-notch setup, its just an inexplicable oversight. My focus on the kitchen prep space is biased by the fact that we usually had 4 and sometimes 6 people in our rig. A whole lot of cooking going on!
The kitchen feels more like an office desk .The fireplace seems like an afterthought. Perhaps, make it a double coner or move the loveseat and place it under the TV. A swivel chair could go where the fireplace is currently. The bunks are for small children. My adult children wouldn't fit. Consider making them longer, stronger and a bit wider.
Ok,.so I dislike slide outs but this one in particular. When the slides are in, the seating with seat belts are virtually inaccesible. How comfortable would a grown/teen 3rd traveler be?
Hi Matt and Andrea! My dislikes are the radius shooter in master bath. The counter being too long and the doors for the bunks. My likes are the two full baths the bunks that flip for when you don’t need them. Lots of sleeping space. I like that. Thank you Matt and Andrea!
It's a beauty. Love the living space! Comfy driver and passenger seat. TV across from the lounge seats. It is all grand to me! I like the chunky kitchen!
This rig is decked to the nines and yet they still have those 1950s wire-frame fans at the front! Surely there has been some technological movement on the small fan front since mid 20th century. :-)
Very pretty but I not a fan of the dark color cabinets. Kitchen counter is very deep and being so deep I could never reach everything as I’m short. Valences are nice. Great bunks too
Ok 3 things I don't like: #1. Saying its 2 BDR but really its 1BDR with other places to lay. #2. No need for 2 BA if one is done correctly like the dual sinks (but needs a bigger shower) #3. No desk area large enough for a real PC not just laptop. 3 things I liked: #1. Loved the headboard! I sleep sitting up with head on a wall (breathing) and would loooove a padded headboard to stop scarring my scalp. #2 The main BA if the shower was bigger. #3. Nothing else. 😊
Doing the math. 150gallons @ ~$3/gal for diesel. Roughly $450 to fill up from empty. Actual will probably be 400-500 each time you fill up. Then, again, if you are buying this rig, that's probably not a show stopper. Especially if you're just snowbirding. Probably 2 tanks each time you relocate but you just do that twice a year.
Why do they put the outdoor shower/wet bay under the slide-out? Unable to use the shower if slide is out and the hose is short. The rest of the wet bay is very nice. Do not like a TV behind the sofa, people on couch cant see tv. The fireplace is to close to the sofa and is in a weird place. I Would remove fireplace. Love the backslash and valances. Kitchen counter is ok. Love the bunk that folds up to make a closet. Love the ceiling fan in bedroom and night stands. Love the master closet rods but still not able to hang long coats or dresses as configured. In master bath should remove sink next to toilet to give more space for toilet.
Excellent review! The things I didn’t like:- radius shower, lack of counterspace in kitchen, angle of toilet in mid bath- rotated it probably would be PPPP. Cool unit overall!
The kitchen counter is deep most likely so you could keep a breville oracle touch espresso machine and a toaster on the counter not need to keep getting it out when needed
Bad things is the radius shower. They should move the washer/dryer to the bedroom and sacrifice some storage but have a larger shower. I don't care for bunks, so would like the option to change the bunk room to a small office space instead. And just for once with people who own gaming rigs/consoles like PS5, it would be nice for RV manufacturers to have storage spaces with airflow as an option. Just my two cents with the 3rd point.
I'm honestly surprised manufacturers aren't offering the option of bunks or an office/desk. There are so many people going full time, and no one offers a real office option.
Gotta disagree with Andrea on the valances and the kitchen counter. I like the deep kitchen counter for extra storage for coffee maker or spices or utensils.
Okay for that size and that price I do not expect to find a radius shower in the Master bedroom. And some just weird things in the coach like access to storage under the dinette the cooktop orientation, cheap doors on the bunks.
I love the guest shower with a built in bench that folds up. I would love to see more of those built in benches in all the coaches not some but all of them so that if you have a Disabled nephew or niece at home and they enjoy going camping with you or just traveling with you. I would like to see more of handicap accessible coaches. I love the storage and the space. But I wish there were more extra space like the European coaches that I saw yesterday in Matt's RV Reviews European RV Show. I loved how those coaches had extra room for Aunts and Uncles who have a child with Disabilities at home. The parents won't have to worry about getting a wheelchair or walker through. Give me a wheelchair lift in those coaches. I don't like the master bath with the radius shower it's too cramped. The guest bathroom I don't like it either because the toilet is squashed up against the wall. Only thing I like is the shower and how there's a shower bench. Give me more of those.
nice one, i would use bunk bed area just for a storage closet, especially if full timing in it..... if i did end up with a guest with me, they can sleep in bunk over cab, since it is there. that fireplace is in a very odd place, seems it would fry anyones legs right there and the side of the couch there. about the only one who could watch it while in the living room is the dog.
Likes: 10k CCC with plenty of basement storage space, master bed is useable with the slides in, and the headboard. Dislikes: Location of the sewer hose storage above the hydraulics, 450 hp engine and 8k generator are too small, and the dangerous step down from the master bath, where Andrea almost fell!!!
The cabinets are too dark and the valances don't really match. The fireplace should be a focal point of the living room area but it's actually kind of pointless. LOL!
I should start a channel like this - I would always start with showing the inside, and with the slides out. I don't ever want to opine about what someone doesn't/might not like - The customer will tell you that.
I would like to know what type of valances Andrea does like. If she just doesn’t like any, then what type of window treatments would be acceptable. Not trying to be smart, I really would like to know. Thanks! (Jane)
It's a pity that the manufacturers all seem to prefer the dark furniture features. If you're travelling with pets, you want light furniture so it's easier to keep clean. I do like the simplicity of the driver cab area, and how open it is (great for cleaning up flying fur and a good place for a dog to lay down with you on the road). I would also sacrifice the double sofas for a couple of recliners (and thus give a more airy feel rather than closed in). With pets, you are stopping more often, so you need to be able to move through the motorhome, and that's really not enough space for any pet but the smallest dog or slender adult.
At 16:48 "and I got a ladder in here." Do you suppose the ladder is for the drop bunk over the driver? Wonder why there isn't better stowage for that ladder?
The valances aren’t perfect but they are 100 times better than Entegra’s👍I personally would never buy a $500,000 full timing diesel motor home meant to tour the country that only has a 2 burner cooktop, no oven and almost zero travel access👎
Hello, I love how insightful your videos are. I'm hoping to retire in about 2 years and hope to buy one. I've learned alot from your videos. I do have a question. Have you ever seen a class c motorcoach with 2 toilets. Maybe a 1 1/2 bath? Thank you
Honestly, Andrea shouldn't be in sales. lol I've never seen or heard a sales person do so much criticism of a product. At the end, 3 pros and 3 cons is sufficient. Let the buyer decide what they like and don't like. In addition, I would never show a product unless it was 100% clean, It would have taken just a few wipes to get rid of the antifreeze in the freezer, and without showing all the pieces (like the cover on the passenger floor). The pros for me are the dishwasher, the double couches, the 2 bathrooms and the kitchen counter exact size. The cons for me, no oven, no pull out kitchen counter extension/cutting tray and the price.
We bought our brand new 2021.5 Berkshire XLT 45A (sightly different kitchen) back in July '21 and still haven't been able to use it. It spent more than 4 months at the factory with Forest River, Freightliner, and Morryde having to come together to repair the very tweaked frame from the factory.

Price is 399,999 at Motor Home Specialist Alvarado Texas. seen this and many other rv's there!
I can honestly say the only things I really like are the fridge and dishwasher. And I really don't consider it a high end motorhome.
I agree with Andrea, the kitchen is weird. I think it’s how they have the induction cooktop; if they rotated it 90° so the burners are left and right it would be better.

i cant see it as a "bedroom" more like a closet with bunk beds in it.

Preach lady, i love hearing a mom/ woman’s view.
Matt "good for all your medicines." I have a feeling that if you and I were in school together we would have be the most sarcastic duo ever.

Recliners, fireplace, bunk beds and two bathrooms.
Top of the line really
605 Allison 4000
Onan 12.5
Now thats top of the line

Andrea is always sharp lucky Matt 🤣
For the price it is not bad. I agree the doors are going to break quickly.

America. Great job Matt and Andrea and the living space is amazing.
On my Cornerstone i have 605 Allison 4000
12 .5 Onan
3 ACs no Propane
For that price, I would buy a Tiffin. Much better brand with a lot less problems.
Exactly. The Tiffin Phaeton is a better value…surely better quality.
I started RV Life to plan a big trip and love it.
Colours are divine 😍
Ok,.so I dislike slide outs but this one in particular. When the slides are in, the seating with seat belts are virtually inaccesible. How comfortable would a grown/teen 3rd traveler be?

You and Andrea should review the Berkshire XL 40E. In my opinion, best bang for the money. Bigger kitchen, bigger shower, bunks. Very similar layout.
It's a beauty. Love the living space! Comfy driver and passenger seat. TV across from the lounge seats. It is all grand to me! I like the chunky kitchen!
This rig is decked to the nines and yet they still have those 1950s wire-frame fans at the front! Surely there has been some technological movement on the small fan front since mid 20th century. :-)
Andrea always looks so pretty 💖
😊
I know there was no rooftop access, but, would you be able to hook this one up with solar?
Huge !! Great video !!
Hope they have a lighter interior option. It so dark, reminds me of a cigar bar.
Great layout, surprised with the radius shower, carpet on the floor slide out. Great cockpit, basement storage, wet bay, and living space
Double sink yet a small radius shower? *insert Batman slapping Robin meme here*
Very pretty but I not a fan of the dark color cabinets. Kitchen counter is very deep and being so deep I could never reach everything as I’m short. Valences are nice. Great bunks too
Nothing not to love it’s awesome!!!!
Really nice Matt! Take càre!🎺🎺🎺🥗!
Do you have to walk through the living room to get to the pantry?
Ok 3 things I don't like: #1. Saying its 2 BDR but really its 1BDR with other places to lay. #2. No need for 2 BA if one is done correctly like the dual sinks (but needs a bigger shower) #3. No desk area large enough for a real PC not just laptop.

This is a very beautiful coach. Great review Matt and Andrea.
My favorite part is the poop position and comfort. I laugh every time. Love your energy, keep it up!
Why do they put the outdoor shower/wet bay under the slide-out? Unable to use the shower if slide is out and the hose is short. The rest of the wet bay is very nice.
Do not like a TV behind the sofa, people on couch cant see tv. The fireplace is to close to the sofa and is in a weird place. I Would remove fireplace.
Love the backslash and valances. Kitchen counter is ok.
Love the bunk that folds up to make a closet. Love the ceiling fan in bedroom and night stands. Love the master closet rods but still not able to hang long coats or dresses as configured. In master bath should remove sink next to toilet to give more space for toilet.
Nice coach thank you !!!
how about the love seat in front of the TV in the living room. How can you watch TV on the sofa if someone is sitting on the love seat?
I liked everything but the price. It was beyond my budget. However, if I had no budget, this MH would be on my radar.
Excellent review! The things I didn’t like:- radius shower, lack of counterspace in kitchen, angle of toilet in mid bath- rotated it probably would be PPPP. Cool unit overall!
I am looking for and Entegra super c that has the International cab and 39 .4 ft
If they go to one sink in the master bath, and switch the shower with the toilet, they could put a bigger shower in & still have the washer and dryer.
I just watched this again and I would still prefer 1 sink in the master bath and a bigger shower.
Those valences ARE weird. They would be my first upgrade if it were mine!
Is there any rv that has real two bedroom with one connecting main bathroom? No bunk
Drinking game! Take a chug every time Matt says "Andrea". 🥴😵💫😂
Well done we thank you
I like the bunk bed also the kitchen is nice 2 bathrooms great.
U need two bathrooms for Uranus ?
Hello Matt, even though there's no perfect RV I Still love the video.
Got to know, what are the valances that Andrea loves
This is the one! It checks all my boxes
The kitchen counter is deep most likely so you could keep a breville oracle touch espresso machine and a toaster on the counter not need to keep getting it out when needed
Bad things is the radius shower. They should move the washer/dryer to the bedroom and sacrifice some storage but have a larger shower.
I don't care for bunks, so would like the option to change the bunk room to a small office space instead.
And just for once with people who own gaming rigs/consoles like PS5, it would be nice for RV manufacturers to have storage spaces with airflow as an option. Just my two cents with the 3rd point.
I'm honestly surprised manufacturers aren't offering the option of bunks or an office/desk. There are so many people going full time, and no one offers a real office option.
Gotta disagree with Andrea on the valances and the kitchen counter. I like the deep kitchen counter for extra storage for coffee maker or spices or utensils.
I'm sorry, that bunk area looks like a funeral display..especially with those doors. Should be pocket doors at minimum.
Is that carpet I see under the dinette table and in the bedroom under the closet? That is definitely a no go for me.
Okay for that size and that price I do not expect to find a radius shower in the Master bedroom. And some just weird things in the coach like access to storage under the dinette the cooktop orientation, cheap doors on the bunks.
I love the guest shower with a built in bench that folds up. I would love to see more of those built in benches in all the coaches not some but all of them so that if you have a Disabled nephew or niece at home and they enjoy going camping with you or just traveling with you. I would like to see more of handicap accessible coaches. I love the storage and the space. But I wish there were more extra space like the European coaches that I saw yesterday in Matt's RV Reviews European RV Show. I loved how those coaches had extra room for Aunts and Uncles who have a child with Disabilities at home. The parents won't have to worry about getting a wheelchair or walker through. Give me a wheelchair lift in those coaches. I don't like the master bath with the radius shower it's too cramped.

Likes:
10k CCC with plenty of basement storage space, master bed is useable with the slides in, and the headboard.
Dislikes:
Location of the sewer hose storage above the hydraulics, 450 hp engine and 8k generator are too small, and the dangerous step down from the master bath, where Andrea almost fell!!!
The carpets and steps. It is also to accommodate the ladder.
1st🎉🎉Hey Matt & Andrea
Great review🔥, very dynamic & modest👌
The cabinets are too dark and the valances don't really match. The fireplace should be a focal point of the living room area but it's actually kind of pointless. LOL!
We are signed up for the with our spot for the rally can't wait
Oohhh, very tight squeeze in the aisle for that price!
The valances and sofa pillows look like bird poop dripped on them!
I should start a channel like this - I would always start with showing the inside, and with the slides out. I don't ever want to opine about what someone doesn't/might not like - The customer will tell you that.
Not perfect, but holy cow, how do they fit all of that in?!
The valance pattern remind me of Birch bark, like them. I never like a super shiny floor, but otherwise this is a beautiful RV.
You look a little close to the ceiling fan. Is this 6 ft 5 inch person approved? Or are we losing height because of the raised frame?
Perfect setup at a good price
I would like to know what type of valances Andrea does like. If she just doesn’t like any, then what type of window treatments would be acceptable. Not trying to be smart, I really would like to know. Thanks! (Jane)
She did like the valances in the mid bath and the master bedroom.
She thumbed up some a few episodes back
I think Andrea likes more modern decors. The clunky valances are old fashioned.
It's a pity that the manufacturers all seem to prefer the dark furniture features. If you're travelling with pets, you want light furniture so it's easier to keep clean. I do like the simplicity of the driver cab area, and how open it is (great for cleaning up flying fur and a good place for a dog to lay down with you on the road).

With pets, you are stopping more often, so you need to be able to move through the motorhome, and that's really not enough space for any pet but the smallest dog or slender adult.
18:43 I like the control panel on the bottom of the above bed storage great for what I assume is your light controls etc
there's no food pantry thats a big one for us
The kitchen looks weird on the video because I felt like there were three competing patterns with the countertop, backsplash, and valance.
The best family RV by far is the Thor Aria 4000. Better in so many ways!!
At 16:48 "and I got a ladder in here." Do you suppose the ladder is for the drop bunk over the driver? Wonder why there isn't better stowage for that ladder?
Omg to that price
The counter was deep but it came with a dishwasher
Nice
The description should have a direct link to buy one ❤
The valances aren’t perfect but they are 100 times better than Entegra’s👍I personally would never buy a $500,000 full timing diesel motor home meant to tour the country that only has a 2 burner cooktop, no oven and almost zero travel access👎
Hello,
I love how insightful your videos are. I'm hoping to retire in about 2 years and hope to buy one. I've learned alot from your videos. I do have a question. Have you ever seen a class c motorcoach with 2 toilets. Maybe a 1 1/2 bath? Thank you
this video just closed the deal for me. I will buy a coach from the early 2000s
is it to hot to sit next to that fireplace when its on? couldn't they move that 2nd bath toilet closer to shower to make it a ppp
I am 100!!! Go Chewbacca
OMG OMG OMG
Honestly, Andrea shouldn't be in sales. lol I've never seen or heard a sales person do so much criticism of a product. At the end, 3 pros and 3 cons is sufficient. Let the buyer decide what they like and don't like. In addition, I would never show a product unless it was 100% clean, It would have taken just a few wipes to get rid of the antifreeze in the freezer, and without showing all the pieces (like the cover on the passenger floor). The pros for me are the dishwasher, the double couches, the 2 bathrooms and the kitchen counter exact size. The cons for me, no oven, no pull out kitchen counter extension/cutting tray and the price.
What type of roof is on this? Is it a rubber roof or fiberglass
Does that thing have a convection or regular oven?
