    I 100% agree if they use something like a French cleat to attach that cupholder not an armrest so it could quickly be removed or locked in place would make road mode so much better but honestly, there’s no sense for those armrest anyways because you can’t put your arm on them they’re just glorified padded cupholders

      I agree that the cup holders are not needed not even considering the door issue, . I would see how it looks with both removed AND five pounds of cargo capacity would be beneficial to me.

    I love the camper but I agree with the cup holder. Make it removable. Here's my 2 cents on the kitchen area for more counter space. Ditch the oven, put a 2 burner. Put storage underneath. If you have a microwave/convection, you are good to go for Makin ya a biscuit or 2. 😊 Lastly, I personally don't like a spare tire mounted underneath. Spare needs to be on the back somewhere.

    Hang two Lagun table brackets on each of the corners of the couch / bed. Convert the bed room to two twin beds, replace front window to 2 single windows so hanging closet can be butted together with the night stands underneath

    The armrest that keeps the bathroom door from opening in road mode could be simply modified a couple different ways: 1) manufacture it in a triangle shape (as the couch armrest of the Salem/WW 171) and permanently mount it, 2) have it mount with shelf like tabs that insert in to a track, then slide down an inch or so into place (as chain lock does on a hotel door).
    Super easy mods for the factory to do that wouldn't add any cost to the RV.
    I'd also move the fire extinguisher from the knee knocker bed side spot to the blank space on the other side of the door beside the counter.
    Could also use a light above the stove, unless there's one built in to the stove hood.

    A removable or just no cup holder on the end of the sofa would be better. There are cup holders in the fold down arm rest. How many cup holders do you need if you have those and a table? I need the bathroom accessible in road mode more than I need 4 cup holders by the sofa.

    Thank you Mr. Nerd. I think if this were available when we bought our ROO 233S, we might have gone with this instead. Maybe... would scrap the table and put in a free standing/folding table so my wife and I could eat a regular meal, and not a snacky-snack thing. They could've trimmed 3" off each side stand and put in a Camp Queen. I would not object to a dinette with a bench seat on the outer wall, free standing table and a couple of chairs on the other side. That would fix the arm rest blocking the bathroom door too. I can see making a slide on and off bracket for the "arm rest" a great idea. The arm rest could stay there while traveling and in an emergency potty situation, slip it off, open the bathroom door and slide it back on when you are done. Schwinteck - grrr....

    really like GP/EP, we just need to decide (when we move up from the 15TB) on 19FB or 20, but without slide (not sure if 20 comes without Slide). Like the full time bed but like a small dinette instead of the table. But its not a show stopper.
    Need to definitely need to do more research. Then again, based on your top 5 TT improvements video, will need to research those as well. Every year new features!

    I wonder if the door to the bathroom simply needs to be switched to the other pull. So instead of opening and pulling towards the couch, it opens and pulls towards the fridge. The radius to open should clear the couch arm then. Downside would be slamming the door into the fridge, but as a couple models, seems easy to live with.

  • @CharlesBenhart
    @CharlesBenhart 6 місяців тому +2

    This particular model seems to be made for the budget minded, or newlywed couple. A double axle would be more stable for towing but starts to cut out the budget minded mode. Storage is adequate for the size of the trailer, and if more is needed, there is space to do so. My biggest concern is to remove weight from the slide. The cupholder end is only around 3 pounds total but couldn't removing that effect the balance of the slide over time. Why not put a folding half door on a rail to solve the road mode issue. Removing the armrest only gives 4 to 5 more inches of room, and for the more robust, that still might be a tight squeeze. Having it fold into the bathroom wouldn't interfere with the slide at all.

    • @JoshtheRVNerd
      @JoshtheRVNerd  5 місяців тому

      Something is small as that cupholder armrest is not going to mess with a slide if it’s removed. That wouldn’t be an issue. Every time the slide goes fully in or out. It automatically performs a self adjustment when you hold the button. So no worries there.

    How many hours is “limited time” for running a/c using power package?

      @JoshtheRVNerd  5 місяців тому +1

      I haven’t personally tested a Rockwood running air on the power package
      I’d estimate only 3-4 but could be mistaken

    Just get rid of the armrest. I have the Rockwood 2109S with the same type and when I sit on the couch my elbow is not close to resting on the armrest, only good for a drink holder. Also, do away with the outdoor speaker. I bring my own portable Bose which sounds 💯 better.

    I agree that a slide bracket mount for the arm (as in lift to remove, lower to attach, just like a bluetooth speaker) would buy some very important bathroom road mode access! Also switching the doors opening direction to be hinged by the fridge would help once that arm was slid off. It should JUST swing passed the couch frame. Lastly, my commiseration for your ordeal! It's got to be the weirdest thing to not have hair yet get hairs in your mouth! 🤢

    So much good stuff here but they spoil it for me with the silly low height in the shower. I understand they want to save weight but the shower is almost unusable for anyone 5’10” and above. I’d much rather they add 3-4” to the side wall and not have the double truss roof. Also if they used a 5000 lb axle the CCC would be more reasonable.

    This camper needs a full dinette and I would love it. The couch is unappealing and the Lagun table is too small to eat at as a couple and the table has a limited range of motion. Room for improvement.

    Nice but still falls short of the Surveyor line. No pantry, no flip up counters, make the couch arm rest to either flip up or removeable for road mode. No option for a dinette, no privacy curtain for the bed. Do like the twin LP tanks, the rear storage and the stinky slinky holder.

    The logic escapes me. vault the ceiling. then stuff the shower in the corner where the ceiling is the lowest and the shower pan is further limiting vertical space. But put the dump station in the middle of the floor where the ceiling is highest but will often be sitting anyways. better yet just make the whole thing a wet bath. criticisms notwithstanding it looks pretty good for a soloist like myself.
