OK. Here is my opinion on this camper. I don't like the color or fabric of the couches. I don't like the no handles on the cabinets/drawers. They need handles on them. I don't like that The cabinets/drawers are not soft closed either. I don't like that the refrigerator doesn't have an ice maker. I would need at least a bath & a half. Why did the bed only have one nightstand on one side of the bed? Why not one on each side of the bed? I think that they could have done alot better on this RV.
I love the colors and overall look but I didn’t like a few things. I think the kitchen chairs look very uncomfortable. The cabinets and drawers seem hard to open. Under the stove should be a drawer. The bed should be strut assisted. And the cabinets over the sofa should stay open on there own Just my opinion.
I think these are all valid points. This is the very first one they’ve built from what I understand and I’m sure they will see these comments. Thanks for the feedback!
Best camper I’ve ever seen 🩵🤍🩵 Myles… the way you put your heart into describing this 😊 Def my ideal camper!!!! OMG 😳 SHOWERS is a booger though.. plastic sink 😂
Mostly nice. I will never understand why when they only have space on one side of the stove it isn't to the right side of the stove. More people are right handed. I would be hitting my arm on the wall all the time, especially if I had to hurry to cook something.
It’s a short fifth wheel so it has the same amount of kitchen storage space any other island kitchen model this size would have. They’ll have other floor plans coming that will offer larger spaces in the kitchen if that’s needed.
I don’t know, they lost us with the corner shower. Love the black wheels, exterior is sharp, one drain hose is good! Curtains need shades behind them, but love the front door. Not a fan of no handles on cabinetry, although the look is sharp. Very 70’s with a modern twist. Looks like Iron Ore by Sherwin Williams on the accent walls, very cool. Love that! But…we’re gonna say Brinkley would win for us with a rectangular shower & several other features. (If we’re comparing the two)
That makes sense! I think they had to do that style shower to get an East to west facing king bed in the slide out, as Brinkley has the north to south facing queen bed. Everything is a give and take, especially in a small fifth wheel.
Unless you’re the size of a pro athlete, I never understood why some people hate corner showers. Personally, when I’m out camping I’m not really expecting a long luxurious shower experience that is just like home. I’d rather be outside grilling or sightseeing. Maybe MSRP will be similar but I’ll bet actual selling prices, on Brinkley units will be much higher.
Mr Myles I agree ! The interior decor is perfect. Just my style: modern and streamlined (no bulky valences, no heavy wood work, no old fashioned cabinet doors) & great up-to-date colors. Awesome
It’s a beautiful RV!!! I wish they had a mid bunk or travel trailer with that same gorgeous decor. I would call the color of the living room seating a cognac “ish” color. Your Freudian slip was hilarious
It might look pretty or ok looking but you can tell the quality is definitely NOT there, it doesn't even come close to Brinkley!! It doesn't even look practical for camping, come on!!! It barely has storage!! And storage cupboards that don't stay open plus no slam latches??? Ummmm, that whole thing is a big fat no. Pretty never outweighs practicality while camping. Eww. But let me tell you how I really feel. 😂
I agree with you Myles, it is beautiful. The only thing I don’t like about it is the lack of counter space. They could solve this easily by adding and extension counter to the island. Your blooper was funny and it actually shocked me! “Did he just say that?” Hahaha
I want rear kitchen mid bunk. Love to see that walk through. The colors I like. Maybe my idea in bedroom is to take one window away at end of bed and make more storage and a fireplace spot too. Cause that's very lux!
Myles, I totally agree with you. But if Heartland sees your video, they’ll probably raise the price of it. The designer needs a bonus for hitting this out of the park. The color choices work together and the lighting throughout enhanced everything. That Matt black stain/paint took it up a notch, the interior would not have had the impact if it had been a satin finish. I’ve seen similar stylish slotted doors for the laundry closet which I love love and that kitchen island wood grain and stain! Oh, and yes, the grooved wood around that round mirror, I might copy that. I liked the offset stove, it helped give the whole look that modern sophisticated Palm Springs look. Lastly, your blooper was innocently accidental, no worries. I hope you won’t be depressed for the next several days until you come off this high. Please let us know the price when you find out. Thanks for showing us your excitement and this fine RV. I’m chuckling, I got just as excited. I was sick of seeing all those tired designs and ugly browns and tans from several decades back. The industry finally got the memo to stop designing for what our grandmothers liked 30 years ago.
This is beautiful! It's modern and sleek! Upscale! I would love to see struts on the overhead cabinets and under the bed. However, if the price is right ....
I love the bedroom!!! The colors are clean, modern and complimentary to each other. I would like black out shades in bedroom and a better shower hose. Or at least not something that makes the space seem cheap. But is really beautiful.
I still love the Brinkley, sorry. 😢 Missing the extended island in kitchen for extra counter space. The bathroom is missing medicine cabinet, and the shower could have been designed better. And it weighs a lot too.
It’s a short fifth wheel so it has the same kitchen storage as any other fifth wheel this size. And actually more as most don’t have a hidden pantry. And the bedroom does lack some storage due to the windshield, but I personally like the look so much, I could make it work!
I absolutely love this RV, I agree the decor design is absolutely amazing. Only thing I noticed that I didn’t like was TV location or lack there of in the bedroom (unless I missed something). It’s not the most important thing to have but is nice on that one crappy day in the middle of a trip when you spend time inside.
The upholstery color might be chesnut or london tan, like with english saddles and tack. Its a bit strong but i love the rest!!! I might excuse the intense leather color..🤔
Finally, an actual totally modern RV. Clean & crisp look throughout. No handles on cabinetry, no trimmed out slides borders, two toned cabinetry. Everything simple & modern. The striped wood paneling is gorgeous. I also love the clean & straight trim around the slides. Gives them a wood beam look. My critiques are the radial shower in the bathroom, the one side only nightstand & the lack of struts under the bed. Other than that, it’s an absolute stunner. I’m glad someone’s actually making an interior that caters to younger generations.
I’m not a ‘younger generation’ anymore, but definitely feel like FINALLY in terms of the modern minimalist style and tones. It seems that the rv industry is finally getting it, probably due to the tiny home movement and rv makeovers people have done.
By the end of this video I’m gonna say wasn’t a blooper 😂😂. Don’t care for steps starting as soon as you come out bathroom. Looks like maybe a safety hazard 😊
Beautiful ... but lacking a few important features for me. Struts for the bed lift, cabinet doors on stay-open hinges, a centered stove, and night stands on both sides of the bed, just to name a few. Pretty is pretty ... but function is function. I prefer function.
I've seen a couple of RVs like this one that are pretty much copying Brinkley, from the outside to the inside. I prefer the Brinkley's interior, but to each his own. What I absolutely do NOT think is the same is the quality. No way is this put together like the Brinkley is. I'm glad Brinkley is pushing other manufacturers to up their games. I'm also glad we have many options to choose from. I get you LOVE the way it looks, a lot of RVs that look good are subpar, but since this one makes you hard I guess you'd have to get it! :)
We love it! It is nice and my wife is an interior designer and painter and she was impressed! Needs slam latches for sure as well as drawer/ door pulls because it appears that it may be hard to open them. And as a happily married couple we would need day/night blackout shades in the bedroom! 😉 Must have! Could use a bit more storage in the bathroom over the toilet. Thanks for sharing it though! Stunner for sure!
You like this better then Brinkley? No where the fit and finish. No struts on bed, overhead cabs. No legs on the headers for windows, ( privacy and light reduction ). No slam latches on exterior cargo doors. Corner shower, no good. I know, I have one. Looks good, but low end finishes.
I think the actual floor plan is pretty typical with other RVs but it's the little things they added on there that brings it more to life on top of that definitely hands down the colors the gray black refrigerator and brown with the white background walls makes it pop so much more brings the RV to life.
Looks great. Love all the color contrast. But it's too lacking in options and build quality, when you could just custom order an RV with these same color patterns. And this video quickly demonstrated how much of a pain in the ass all those no-handle doors are. 😂 Looks clean, but no. Function always wins in the end.
Sorry Myles, I gotta disagree. The interior design is definitely beautiful, very sleek and modern looking, but there are too many shortcomings to rate this very high on my list. Things like no struts on the overhead and underbed storage spaces. The storage space in general seems to be a bit lacking to me. And one of my pet peeves; a lack of adequate nightstands on BOTH sides of the bed. This unit it has a nice-looking stand only on one side and nothing on the other - major deal breaker for me. Personally, I really think Brinkley RVs are much better quality than this. The drawers in a Brinkley are dovetailed, where they are not in this unit. And for me, not that I don't like look of the Corterra, but I much prefer the Brinkley interior.
I have watched many of your videos and have enjoyed them however I was really disappointed in the way you presented this unit. I totally agree that the ascetics of this RV is beautiful. I am putting this comment in because of your multiple comments about liking it more than a Brinkley. One of my primary reason for liking Brinkley and feel that it is superior is not based on looks but on both build quality and workmanship. I realize you didn’t do a thorough review on this unit but couldn’t help but notice the design ideas and products that until Brinkley I had never seen before such as the stairs, side tables, entry railing and chairs. I also couldn’t help but notice the debris underneath the floor at the slide and lack of sealing on par with the Brinkley. Also to mention a few other things I noticed, trim at the ceiling/ sidewall joints ( typically used to cover joint imperfections ), no dovetails on the drawers, lack of handrail on the stairs, no electric dump valves and best I can see plastic valves and plumbing connections to name some. I would have liked for you to do a more detailed presentation so I could have seen more of the mechanical side. How’s the wiring is there a lot of construction debris in hidden areas what does the underbelly look like? In my opinion you can’t judge a book by it’s cover. But it sure is pretty.
Overall it's awesome, but a few things are needed to really make it top notch: change the color of the couchess to the dark grey; the chairs look cheap and very uncomfortable- need a different style or I would prefer a dinette; needs a medicine cabinet in the bathroom, and a place for a TV in the bedroom. Thanks for bringing us the newest releases Myles!
This is the first one they’ve ever built. It’s literally brand new and this is the first time anyone has ever seen it. I showed the other floor plans they plan to build in the video 👍
This an absolutely gorgeous 5th wheel but seriously, no black out shades in the bedroom? Could it be because it was staged and they plan on installing them?
Not impressed, 1 it's not a toy hauler , 2 it's a heartland, 3 although the living room is nice you definitely lose me in the kitchen and bathroom...I think Brinkley is the best ...and one day I will be able to own one, especially the G4000
It’s a short, light weight fifth wheel. So if you’re looking for something large, this isn’t it. But it’s not even so much about the exact layout of this specific floor plan. It’s the design concepts that they can carry into any floor plan they decide to make in the future.
I feel like you I love the interior! My only thing is just putting gas struts on upper cabinets and bed also, and then blackout curtains in bedroom! ❤❤❤❤ wow 🤩
Love it! Sure, its "missing" a few things like slam latches, shock assists to keep certain doors open, a smaller shower, etc. But, they will probably do that to keep cost down... I notice they arent even on the website yet. I noticed the flag before you went in, with two other floorplans. Very interested in seeing the other two... to me this ones kitchen is to small(not enough countertop space) along with the shower being to small. Other than that, I believe its all good! Plus, you dont need a dually to pull it!
Lots of good things to say about this fifth wheel; however, I think Brinkley would be my choice between the two. What I noticed: great colors (really looks nice), dinette chairs look cheap, prefer theater seating (cup holders/charging stations), having no cabinet handles is OK but the cabinets should stand open by themselves and be soft closing with magnets, black (charcoal) sink would be killer, radial shower (NO NO NO!!!) is a deal breaker, being able to walk around the bed (yes!), no struts to hold bed up (nope), front window (no shade or curtains to block the sun?). I'll pass, thank you. Lou from Georgia.
The only thing is my kitchen at home has no handles on the doors. I hated that. Broke so many nails and eventually put pulls on at least the drawers. It may look clean but is very annoying to open and often hurts if heavy and sticks. But it is beautiful
Open storage is not functional in an RV. At least while you’re traveling. I think after you camped in it for a while, you would begin to prefer function over form. Still wondering what happened to having your wife on the videos.
Yes, this does look like a modern hotel room. It's too dark for me and I could handle it one or two days, but not for the long term. Drawers and cabinets w/o handles (I don't do knobs either) is a deal breaker for me. Also, I would prefer the stove/oven centered as I wouldn't want to try to cook against a wall that is adjacent to a refrigerator. I like the dining chairs. I do not like the camel-colored (almost orange) loveseat and sofa. White or a light cream would be my choice. There is no storage for hanging clothes if you put in the combo except for those tiny closets on either side of the window in the bedroom. The white bedspread was a good choice. The woodwork detailing is very nice. The windows in the bedroom are nice but blackout shades would be the practical choice under the pretty curtains. The shower is too small although as you pointed out it is tall. Other people commented on some other cons and I'm inclined to agree. I would definitely rent it for a weekend. I wouldn't buy it. This is what I like, Brinkley Model Z 3100: ua-cam.com/video/PJ6WnN5wKUY/v-deo.html
I absolutely loved this rv. The aesthetic is stunning! It gave me New York penthouse vibes. ❤️ Loved all of it. But I do prefer the stove centered. I’ve never enjoyed cooking on a stove that’s butted against a wall. It’s just not user friendly. Other than that I love it.
Everything about the staging of this RV was perfect. The color scheme, the spacing and the lines of all the furniture and the decor. The bathroom and the bedroom are just beautiful and the little pop of green from the plants just liven the whole thing up. This RV reminds me of those custom-made tiny homes that are like airbnb's.They're usually like a tree house or in a forest nook somewhere and there's a whole theme built around them For example all sustainable materials used in the building or in the construction of the furnishings etc. This RV reminds me of that. It definitely has that cozy modern "cabin"/designer tiny home/treehouse kind of feel. I think for the first shot out-of-the-box it's an absolutely gorgeous RV and if it was equipped for full-time living a couple could be very happy there. Many times when watching RV tours I have a hard time picturing how I would decorate and how I would make the unit look because everything just seems very standard and somewhat cold and sterile This RV is not like that. Between the warm cozy decor and the staging that was done so well I can easily picture how I would decorate it. I agree with you, it's a beautiful RV! It would be very interesting to see how they modify it through the years with improvements and upgrades. I wish it had pulls on the cabinets and drawers, a washer dryer hookup that would accommodate a stackable unit instead of a combo unit, and a fireplace in the bedroom. It does need struts for the under bed storage. But all in all, it's an absolutely gorgeous RV that looks like a luxury unit.
@angelasmith5174 Wow! This thing is TOTALLY not "mid-range" (hopefully in price it is lol), as I also don't think I've seen a better version of this popular layout on a 5th wheel or luxury trailer. I know Heartland has been around a long time and has had a solid--if not bland--reputation, but man o man did they hit this one out of the park!
Firmly Unbound Subscribed. Really like this model. Kitchen needed more drawers and move trash to under sink. Bathroom needed drawers or medicine cabinet. Better to have soft close drawers, cabinets that hold open & strut assist on the bed. That said, Neutral colors are nice. Good for a couple 👍👍
Need a Brinkley X Corterra collaboration! Outside styling mixed between the two (love the glass door), with this exact interior look but Brinkley quality (dovetail, soft close, frame style valence, etc.) and it would be the PERFECT fifth wheel. I would buy one in a heartbeat if it’s close to Brinkley MSRP on the Zs. Amazing!
Love the kitchen is on the back side. 3 cushion or 2 bigger cushion without the tables would have been better. Dining table chairs look uncomfortable. The swing out tv/pantry concerns me (all of them not just this one). Love the huge sink. I do prefer the table/chairs versus dinette.
The bathroom looks like a luxury island resort feeling to it. The bedroom is great an I do like the curtains in it. I was wondering Myles could they install the blackout pull down blinds behind the curtains if you asked them to? The different colors are off the chain!!! I liked your little blooper it was funny as all get out. I do wish the storage above the sofa had struts an the bed too. The bed covering is luxurious. Keep on keeping on Myles!!!!!! Your friend Leonard Nelson from North Carolina!!!!
This thing is freaking amazing! I love the sharp, clean lines! I can’t wait to see the larger units. I subscribed to your other channel btw! Excited about that too
It has a really attractive modernist / marine decor look. Very sexy. Unfortunately it also looks very cheap at the same time. So many little corners cut. I guess we’ll see what the price point is. I’ll give them credit for putting a bed slide in a mid profile 5th wheel but it comes at the cost of minimal wardrobe storage. Thanks for the video.
Again, I wish I could see the plumbing. The lack of self staying cupboards is such a shame. That is SUPER annoying in a trailer. The designers need to think about their brand and what will annoy a human a million times reminding them they hate something about their product. A simple thing like just making it so your cupboards stay open is big in long term experience. Like as soon as I saw that I thought of how mad my cupboards make me in our current trailer. The bedroom is the best part. Wish it had theater seats. But it does look very nice otherwise!
I have complained for a decade that the brown on brown on brown old man tan packages HAD to change because not all RV buyers are 70 year old men. Brinkley finally broke through that wall. THIS looks even better IMO. Because a fifth wheel must have tightly held cabinet doors, you can not go away with handles because after a few days your finger tips are going to be raw trying to open those doors. Corner radius showers suck and are a deal breaker for me no matter how gorgeous. Not enough closet space because of the front windshield. That is it. Please keep making RVs for people who actually have style and taste.
Don’t like the colour of the seating or bottom of island. Sorry, it’s an ugly 💩 brown. Chairs look cheap and uncomfortable. Would like to see windows without shades pulled down. Love hidden storage! Stove off centre is fine. NEED struts for bed. It’ll fall on your back/neck!!!!! How long is this 5th wheel? Shower, chintzy shower head, looks cramped
Your blooper was hilarious 🤣 😆 😅 As for this unit, it's like walking into a brand new condo! Very impressive. Every room is gorgeous! Literally like a new, modern condo. But...curtains yuck. The bed needs struts. Was surprised about that. No handles on drawers and cupboards is definitely a clean look but for some they will be hard to open. Surprised the shower is a radius. That refrigerator is not a good brand. Definitely nicer looking than Brinkley. Not a fan of Brinkley at all. Got to say again though...Wow! This unit is really, really nice. Thank you for sharing. God bless 🙏
Definitely the best interior design of any you've shown. I agree with you! A couple things I'd change, like a cabinet in bathroom rather than the little shelf for more towel storage. That bedding is awesome!!
The aesthetics are very nice and modern/contemporary. It does not make me want to give up my 2021 Dutchmen Atlas, mid bunk, double vanity and huge shower for it! Bought new in 2021 and have had no problems! I do love me some fifth wheels! Can't beat the available floor plans!
Very nice camper. The woodwork is great and I also like the light strips. I'm actually fine with no handles. The oven is a good size but you're right. Too close to the wall. Haven't made my mind up about 12v fridges. The bedroom is a nice size. But I would have liked a hidden TV that pops up in front of the windows at the foot of the bed. I'd install two lift assist struts for $40. They missed on not having an AM / FM CD player for the main TV. (Or you didn't show that). Also the chairs and table look below par and don't go with the rest of the unit. Also, they missed on not having more counter space by not moving the outlet or having those collapsible outlets and putting a fold down a extension on the end of the island. You can never have too much counter space. No place for a broom or to hang costs when you come in and there is room for that. One point - you always say you have a "critique" when you aren't fond of something when you probably mean "criticism". In actuality your whole video is a critique (aka evaluation). You could call it constructive criticism to not be negative. One request is a review of the mid bunk version of this if you haven't done one. If you have please post a link for me. (I know this is 8 months later but it just showed up for me and I'm saving all the ones I like to make comparisons for a year or so down the line) Thanks for the great content.
I love that they did something modern and different, and though I love the lighting throughout, I DETEST the caramel color...especially with gray. I hate when cool tones are mixed with warm tones, though. What I hope other manufacturers copy from this is the lack of the tacky, old-fashioned tribal tats all over the exterior. Like, it's not the 90's; can we stop doing that already? As much as I love what Brikley did with the straight lines, and how E2W and Eagle are copying it, I'm still like "Dude, just do NO decals, please." I don't want pay extra for something I don't even want in the first place. They could at least make it an option.
It is beautiful. The perfect layout! Would love to see soft close features and stay open on the upper cabinets and bed storage. Needs a hand rail up to bedroom. Disappearing hand rail would be perfect. Thanks for sharing!
High contrast organic modern is what I’m calling it and I love it….. room for improvement tho. Dining chairs lame. Bed should be strut assisted. No nightstand on left side of bed. Curtains in master awesome but still need shades behind. Not enough storage in master bedroom by a long shot. Shower needs to be a bit bigger. Maybe over next couple years they will tweak things but this is a great start
As the owner of a previous 2011 33ft heartland 5th wheel and now a 2020 heartland bighorn traveler 40plus ft..this is a step down for me..why buy a fifth wheel that looks like a hotel? Looks like they partnered with Ikea and took the homely look out. No cabinet space for pots and pans. Big desk space in bedroom that took out half the closet so washer/dryer option is out. Bedroom curtains should provide privacy, not faded natural light. I'm in the market to go back to something under 35ft but if this decor is Heartland's new theme direction, I'll be looking at other manufacturers. Sorry for the downsides but you did ask.
Thank you for watching! Let me know what you think and click here to subscribe to FIRMLY UNBOUND: youtube.com/@FirmlyUnbound?si=P-uZIl-i7h39jUZb
I call that color of your couch's. " Camel"
OK. Here is my opinion on this camper.
I don't like the color or fabric of the couches.
I don't like the no handles on the cabinets/drawers. They need handles on them.
I don't like that The cabinets/drawers are not soft closed either.
I don't like that the refrigerator doesn't have an ice maker.
I would need at least a bath & a half.
Why did the bed only have one nightstand on one side of the bed? Why not one on each side of the bed? I think that they could have done alot better on this RV.
I like the 5th wheel, but not the dining chairs. The shower is pretty tight and no big closet for hanging clothes.
I love the colors and overall look but I didn’t like a few things. I think the kitchen chairs look very uncomfortable. The cabinets and drawers seem hard to open. Under the stove should be a drawer. The bed should be strut assisted. And the cabinets over the sofa should stay open on there own Just my opinion.
I think these are all valid points. This is the very first one they’ve built from what I understand and I’m sure they will see these comments. Thanks for the feedback!
I think they put a broiler under the stove.
Best camper I’ve ever seen 🩵🤍🩵
Myles… the way you put your heart into describing this 😊
Def my ideal camper!!!!
OMG 😳
SHOWERS is a booger though.. plastic sink 😂
Absolutely agree...and I'm stunned that there are no blackout shades in the bedroom!😮
You know you could swap
The chairs out
Mostly nice. I will never understand why when they only have space on one side of the stove it isn't to the right side of the stove. More people are right handed. I would be hitting my arm on the wall all the time, especially if I had to hurry to cook something.
That’s a great point
I do love the curtains but having blackout curtains is a must!
It looks amazing but there is very little kitchen cabinet space for things like your dishes and pots and pans etc …
It’s a short fifth wheel so it has the same amount of kitchen storage space any other island kitchen model this size would have. They’ll have other floor plans coming that will offer larger spaces in the kitchen if that’s needed.
It’s got a pantry, which wasn’t shown, but I’m sure there’s plenty of space in there:)
I don’t know, they lost us with the corner shower. Love the black wheels, exterior is sharp, one drain hose is good! Curtains need shades behind them, but love the front door. Not a fan of no handles on cabinetry, although the look is sharp.
Very 70’s with a modern twist. Looks like Iron Ore by Sherwin Williams on the accent walls, very cool. Love that!
But…we’re gonna say Brinkley would win for us with a rectangular shower & several other features. (If we’re comparing the two)
That makes sense! I think they had to do that style shower to get an East to west facing king bed in the slide out, as Brinkley has the north to south facing queen bed. Everything is a give and take, especially in a small fifth wheel.
@@mylesrv
Absolutely!
@@mylesrv actually the Brinkley z3100 has an east to west facing king bed. It is 34'11" in length. Not sure the exact length of this one.
Agree
Unless you’re the size of a pro athlete, I never understood why some people hate corner showers. Personally, when I’m out camping I’m not really expecting a long luxurious shower experience that is just like home. I’d rather be outside grilling or sightseeing.
Maybe MSRP will be similar but I’ll bet actual selling prices, on Brinkley units will be much higher.
Mr Myles I agree ! The interior decor is perfect. Just my style: modern and streamlined (no bulky valences, no heavy wood work, no old fashioned cabinet doors) & great up-to-date colors. Awesome
It's not my favorite, it's a pass for me. The Brinkley is number one in my book.
It’s a beautiful RV!!! I wish they had a mid bunk or travel trailer with that same gorgeous decor. I would call the color of the living room seating a cognac “ish” color. Your Freudian slip was hilarious
They will have more floor plans coming! I just don’t know how soon.
I like your excitement Mr. Myles. Appreciate you being real during your videos too… You do the BEST job showing off all the RV/Camper features.
Yep. That’s definitely the style for me. A modern expression in the RV world. No cookie cutter style here.
Exactly!
It might look pretty or ok looking but you can tell the quality is definitely NOT there, it doesn't even come close to Brinkley!! It doesn't even look practical for camping, come on!!! It barely has storage!! And storage cupboards that don't stay open plus no slam latches??? Ummmm, that whole thing is a big fat no. Pretty never outweighs practicality while camping. Eww. But let me tell you how I really feel. 😂
I agree with you Myles, it is beautiful. The only thing I don’t like about it is the lack of counter space. They could solve this easily by adding and extension counter to the island. Your blooper was funny and it actually shocked me! “Did he just say that?” Hahaha
I want rear kitchen mid bunk. Love to see that walk through. The colors I like. Maybe my idea in bedroom is to take one window away at end of bed and make more storage and a fireplace spot too. Cause that's very lux!
That would be nice!
Definitely prefer an upper cabinet with a door for cups, plates, bowls, etc, but nice!
I like this but Brinkley is definitely a more luxury product in my opinion.
Myles, I totally agree with you. But if Heartland sees your video, they’ll probably raise the price of it. The designer needs a bonus for hitting this out of the park. The color choices work together and the lighting throughout enhanced everything. That Matt black stain/paint took it up a notch, the interior would not have had the impact if it had been a satin finish. I’ve seen similar stylish slotted doors for the laundry closet which I love love and that kitchen island wood grain and stain! Oh, and yes, the grooved wood around that round mirror, I might copy that. I liked the offset stove, it helped give the whole look that modern sophisticated Palm Springs look. Lastly, your blooper was innocently accidental, no worries. I hope you won’t be depressed for the next several days until you come off this high. Please let us know the price when you find out. Thanks for showing us your excitement and this fine RV. I’m chuckling, I got just as excited. I was sick of seeing all those tired designs and ugly browns and tans from several decades back. The industry finally got the memo to stop designing for what our grandmothers liked 30 years ago.
That "Grooved Wood" is wallpaper.
This is beautiful! It's modern and sleek! Upscale! I would love to see struts on the overhead cabinets and under the bed. However, if the price is right ....
I agree! It’s the first one they’ve built so it’s possible they may make some slight changes based on feedback from this video!
They’ve copied Brinkley but did a really good job. I’m sure the price is more affordable than Brinkley but I question the quality.
I love the bedroom!!! The colors are clean, modern and complimentary to each other.
I would like black out shades in bedroom and a better shower hose. Or at least not something that makes the space seem cheap. But is really beautiful.
I still love the Brinkley, sorry. 😢 Missing the extended island in kitchen for extra counter space. The bathroom is missing medicine cabinet, and the shower could have been designed better. And it weighs a lot too.
Definately not enough kitchen storage or bedroom closet space.
It’s a short fifth wheel so it has the same kitchen storage as any other fifth wheel this size. And actually more as most don’t have a hidden pantry. And the bedroom does lack some storage due to the windshield, but I personally like the look so much, I could make it work!
Very European in styling, very smart love it 😍, great tour as usual Miles thanks!
Thanks for watching!
I absolutely love this RV, I agree the decor design is absolutely amazing. Only thing I noticed that I didn’t like was TV location or lack there of in the bedroom (unless I missed something). It’s not the most important thing to have but is nice on that one crappy day in the middle of a trip when you spend time inside.
The upholstery color might be chesnut or london tan, like with english saddles and tack. Its a bit strong but i love the rest!!! I might excuse the intense leather color..🤔
It is a bit strong, but I love a nice, bold look!
They did an amazing job with the two tone colors that works very well.
I think so too! Glad you like it!
Finally, an actual totally modern RV. Clean & crisp look throughout. No handles on cabinetry, no trimmed out slides borders, two toned cabinetry. Everything simple & modern.
The striped wood paneling is gorgeous. I also love the clean & straight trim around the slides. Gives them a wood beam look.
My critiques are the radial shower in the bathroom, the one side only nightstand & the lack of struts under the bed. Other than that, it’s an absolute stunner. I’m glad someone’s actually making an interior that caters to younger generations.
I’m not a ‘younger generation’ anymore, but definitely feel like FINALLY in terms of the modern minimalist style and tones. It seems that the rv industry is finally getting it, probably due to the tiny home movement and rv makeovers people have done.
By the end of this video I’m gonna say wasn’t a blooper 😂😂. Don’t care for steps starting as soon as you come out bathroom. Looks like maybe a safety hazard 😊
I love the color scheme and the kitchen area. I wish it had more closet space but i absolutely love the space around the bed.
Beautiful ... but lacking a few important features for me. Struts for the bed lift, cabinet doors on stay-open hinges, a centered stove, and night stands on both sides of the bed, just to name a few. Pretty is pretty ... but function is function. I prefer function.
Thank you for the feedback! I think this is the first one they have every built, so things are subject to change and your feedback will help!
I've seen a couple of RVs like this one that are pretty much copying Brinkley, from the outside to the inside. I prefer the Brinkley's interior, but to each his own. What I absolutely do NOT think is the same is the quality. No way is this put together like the Brinkley is. I'm glad Brinkley is pushing other manufacturers to up their games. I'm also glad we have many options to choose from. I get you LOVE the way it looks, a lot of RVs that look good are subpar, but since this one makes you hard I guess you'd have to get it! :)
The design is great, function not so much.
Are you talking about the function of the floor plan layout? Or some specific component?
We love it! It is nice and my wife is an interior designer and painter and she was impressed!
Needs slam latches for sure as well as drawer/ door pulls because it appears that it may be hard to open them.
And as a happily married couple we would need day/night blackout shades in the bedroom! 😉 Must have!
Could use a bit more storage in the bathroom over the toilet.
Thanks for sharing it though! Stunner for sure!
You like this better then Brinkley? No where the fit and finish. No struts on bed, overhead cabs. No legs on the headers for windows, ( privacy and light reduction ). No slam latches on exterior cargo doors. Corner shower, no good. I know, I have one. Looks good, but low end finishes.
Needs a fridge that produces ice. Also, soft close cabinets would be nicer. Also, that shower is small.
I think the actual floor plan is pretty typical with other RVs but it's the little things they added on there that brings it more to life on top of that definitely hands down the colors the gray black refrigerator and brown with the white background walls makes it pop so much more brings the RV to life.
Looks great. Love all the color contrast. But it's too lacking in options and build quality, when you could just custom order an RV with these same color patterns.
And this video quickly demonstrated how much of a pain in the ass all those no-handle doors are. 😂
Looks clean, but no.
Function always wins in the end.
Sorry Myles, I gotta disagree. The interior design is definitely beautiful, very sleek and modern looking, but there are too many shortcomings to rate this very high on my list. Things like no struts on the overhead and underbed storage spaces. The storage space in general seems to be a bit lacking to me. And one of my pet peeves; a lack of adequate nightstands on BOTH sides of the bed. This unit it has a nice-looking stand only on one side and nothing on the other - major deal breaker for me.
Personally, I really think Brinkley RVs are much better quality than this. The drawers in a Brinkley are dovetailed, where they are not in this unit. And for me, not that I don't like look of the Corterra, but I much prefer the Brinkley interior.
I have watched many of your videos and have enjoyed them however I was really disappointed in the way you presented this unit.
I totally agree that the ascetics of this RV is beautiful.
I am putting this comment in because of your multiple comments about liking it more than a Brinkley.
One of my primary reason for liking Brinkley and feel that it is superior is not based on looks but on both build quality and workmanship.
I realize you didn’t do a thorough review on this unit but couldn’t help but notice the design ideas and products that until Brinkley I had never seen before such as the stairs, side tables, entry railing and chairs.
I also couldn’t help but notice the debris underneath the floor at the slide and lack of sealing on par with the Brinkley.
Also to mention a few other things I noticed, trim at the ceiling/ sidewall joints ( typically used to cover joint imperfections ), no dovetails on the drawers, lack of handrail on the stairs, no electric dump valves and best I can see plastic valves and plumbing connections to name some.
I would have liked for you to do a more detailed presentation so I could have seen more of the mechanical side. How’s the wiring is there a lot of construction debris in hidden areas what does the underbelly look like?
In my opinion you can’t judge a book by it’s cover.
But it sure is pretty.
Hoooly, almost like a scandanavian design + american scale layout. Best of both worlds.
Not luxury, just looks. Cheep cabinet catches, hinges don't hold cab doors up, you're correct, shower to small no hand tlwel rack, ect.
I love the colors and design- hopefully they’ll offer this in their larger rigs.
Overall it's awesome, but a few things are needed to really make it top notch: change the color of the couchess to the dark grey; the chairs look cheap and very uncomfortable- need a different style or I would prefer a dinette; needs a medicine cabinet in the bathroom, and a place for a TV in the bedroom. Thanks for bringing us the newest releases Myles!
Is this the biggest or longest one they make ? And can you can you get one made with extra things in it this one doesn't have? I really like this.
This is the first one they’ve ever built. It’s literally brand new and this is the first time anyone has ever seen it. I showed the other floor plans they plan to build in the video 👍
This an absolutely gorgeous 5th wheel but seriously, no black out shades in the bedroom? Could it be because it was staged and they plan on installing them?
I would put slide door on bath. Also shelves in washer dryer space
contrasting colors are not consistent, pantry door should of been charcoal or tan on the other cupboard doors you have had nicer RVs
Price needs to be lower end.. Poor build quality…it looks very cheap.
Interior sofa color is called cognac in my BMW. I love this color!
Thank you for that!
Not impressed, 1 it's not a toy hauler , 2 it's a heartland, 3 although the living room is nice you definitely lose me in the kitchen and bathroom...I think Brinkley is the best ...and one day I will be able to own one, especially the G4000
It’s a short, light weight fifth wheel. So if you’re looking for something large, this isn’t it. But it’s not even so much about the exact layout of this specific floor plan. It’s the design concepts that they can carry into any floor plan they decide to make in the future.
I STILL LOVE BRINKLEYS BETTER THIS ONE IS MISSING ALOT OF DETAILS THAT BRINKLEY HAD
I feel like you I love the interior! My only thing is just putting gas struts on upper cabinets and bed also, and then blackout curtains in bedroom! ❤❤❤❤ wow 🤩
Well Brinkley did it better as far as upgrades, made standard.
1/4 shower deal breaker for me
wimpy dinette chairs will not support older people
shelves on open tv door will not support long term food storage, its all glam, not long term living
Beautiful ...BUT that tiny corner shower is an instant NO
Love it! Sure, its "missing" a few things like slam latches, shock assists to keep certain doors open, a smaller shower, etc. But, they will probably do that to keep cost down... I notice they arent even on the website yet. I noticed the flag before you went in, with two other floorplans. Very interested in seeing the other two... to me this ones kitchen is to small(not enough countertop space) along with the shower being to small. Other than that, I believe its all good! Plus, you dont need a dually to pull it!
Lots of good things to say about this fifth wheel; however, I think Brinkley would be my choice between the two. What I noticed: great colors (really looks nice), dinette chairs look cheap, prefer theater seating (cup holders/charging stations), having no cabinet handles is OK but the cabinets should stand open by themselves and be soft closing with magnets, black (charcoal) sink would be killer, radial shower (NO NO NO!!!) is a deal breaker, being able to walk around the bed (yes!), no struts to hold bed up (nope), front window (no shade or curtains to block the sun?). I'll pass, thank you. Lou from Georgia.
There is a shade with the front window, but the bedroom is very cumberson.
The only thing is my kitchen at home has no handles on the doors. I hated that. Broke so many nails and eventually put pulls on at least the drawers. It may look clean but is very annoying to open and often hurts if heavy and sticks. But it is beautiful
I didn’t think about women with nails… good point 😂
@@mylesrv lol yep but you can always add hardware
Cognac
That’s it! Thanks for that
I was completely in love until I saw the corner shower. 😢
Open storage is not functional in an RV. At least while you’re traveling. I think after you camped in it for a while, you would begin to prefer function over form. Still wondering what happened to having your wife on the videos.
That’s a fair point. Can always use bins or something.
Thank you. God bless you.
It's amazing. Gorgeous. Awesome
Thank you for watching!
Unless I missed it, didn't cover the back of the RV. Don't know if it has a receiver hitch, or a backup camera ect.
Equipped to add a TV in the bedroom.
Yes, this does look like a modern hotel room. It's too dark for me and I could handle it one or two days, but not for the long term.
Drawers and cabinets w/o handles (I don't do knobs either) is a deal breaker for me. Also, I would prefer the stove/oven centered as I wouldn't want to try to cook against a wall that is adjacent to a refrigerator.
I like the dining chairs. I do not like the camel-colored (almost orange) loveseat and sofa. White or a light cream would be my choice.
There is no storage for hanging clothes if you put in the combo except for those tiny closets on either side of the window in the bedroom. The white bedspread was a good choice. The woodwork detailing is very nice. The windows in the bedroom are nice but blackout shades would be the practical choice under the pretty curtains.
The shower is too small although as you pointed out it is tall. Other people commented on some other cons and I'm inclined to agree. I would definitely rent it for a weekend. I wouldn't buy it.
This is what I like, Brinkley Model Z 3100:
ua-cam.com/video/PJ6WnN5wKUY/v-deo.html
I just filmed with Brinkley today :)
@@mylesrv I just watched the Brinkley Toy Hauler video. I'll look for the other one.
So gorgeous! I am so happy these companies are finally doing more modern designs!
I absolutely loved this rv. The aesthetic is stunning! It gave me New York penthouse vibes. ❤️ Loved all of it. But I do prefer the stove centered. I’ve never enjoyed cooking on a stove that’s butted against a wall. It’s just not user friendly. Other than that I love it.
Love, love the modern design!
Glad you love it!
Everything about the staging of this RV was perfect. The color scheme, the spacing and the lines of all the furniture and the decor. The bathroom and the bedroom are just beautiful and the little pop of green from the plants just liven the whole thing up. This RV reminds me of those custom-made tiny homes that are like airbnb's.They're usually like a tree house or in a forest nook somewhere and there's a whole theme built around them For example all sustainable materials used in the building or in the construction of the furnishings etc. This RV reminds me of that. It definitely has that cozy modern "cabin"/designer tiny home/treehouse kind of feel. I think for the first shot out-of-the-box it's an absolutely gorgeous RV and if it was equipped for full-time living a couple could be very happy there. Many times when watching RV tours I have a hard time picturing how I would decorate and how I would make the unit look because everything just seems very standard and somewhat cold and sterile This RV is not like that. Between the warm cozy decor and the staging that was done so well I can easily picture how I would decorate it. I agree with you, it's a beautiful RV! It would be very interesting to see how they modify it through the years with improvements and upgrades. I wish it had pulls on the cabinets and drawers, a washer dryer hookup that would accommodate a stackable unit instead of a combo unit, and a fireplace in the bedroom. It does need struts for the under bed storage. But all in all, it's an absolutely gorgeous RV that looks like a luxury unit.
Such great input and thanks for such a thorough comment of your thoughts!
@angelasmith5174 Wow! This thing is TOTALLY not "mid-range" (hopefully in price it is lol), as I also don't think I've seen a better version of this popular layout on a 5th wheel or luxury trailer. I know Heartland has been around a long time and has had a solid--if not bland--reputation, but man o man did they hit this one out of the park!
IF IT HAD ALL THOSE BRINKLEY DETAILS INCLUDED ID LIKE THIS
I like it so far but can you put a TV in front of the bed?
Firmly Unbound Subscribed. Really like this model. Kitchen needed more drawers and move trash to under sink. Bathroom needed drawers or medicine cabinet. Better to have soft close drawers, cabinets that hold open & strut assist on the bed. That said, Neutral colors are nice. Good for a couple 👍👍
Need a Brinkley X Corterra collaboration! Outside styling mixed between the two (love the glass door), with this exact interior look but Brinkley quality (dovetail, soft close, frame style valence, etc.) and it would be the PERFECT fifth wheel. I would buy one in a heartbeat if it’s close to Brinkley MSRP on the Zs. Amazing!
You’re on to something…. I’d buy that in a heartbeat too!
Wow, nice to see something different and new. Very unique color palette. Thank you for sharing.
Thanks for watching! It was definitely refreshing to see something new
Beautiful camper!!! There is several things that you pointed out that they could have done better. But overall I think it awesome.
I’m sure heartland will see the feedback on this video and potentially consider changes!
Definitely love this one Can't wait to see the mid bunk model
Me either! I’m hoping they’ll get me back out here when they have new floor plans built.
@mylesrv and love the blooper It was hilarious!!!
@@dawntaylor8660 🫣😂
a shade of Taupe or camel color
I call that color cognac
Dining chairs gotta go.
Would like to see the other floor plans since they were there
This is the first one they’ve ever built. Hopefully they bring me back when they have new floor plans to show!
Love the kitchen is on the back side.
3 cushion or 2 bigger cushion without the tables would have been better.
Dining table chairs look uncomfortable.
The swing out tv/pantry concerns me (all of them not just this one).
Love the huge sink.
I do prefer the table/chairs versus dinette.
I LOVE the wooden valance in the slide the way its just one item.
The bathroom looks like a luxury island resort feeling to it. The bedroom is great an I do like the curtains in it. I was wondering Myles could they install the blackout pull down blinds behind the curtains if you asked them to? The different colors are off the chain!!! I liked your little blooper it was funny as all get out. I do wish the storage above the sofa had struts an the bed too. The bed covering is luxurious. Keep on keeping on Myles!!!!!! Your friend Leonard Nelson from North Carolina!!!!
This thing is freaking amazing! I love the sharp, clean lines! I can’t wait to see the larger units.
I subscribed to your other channel btw! Excited about that too
It has a really attractive modernist / marine decor look. Very sexy. Unfortunately it also looks very cheap at the same time. So many little corners cut. I guess we’ll see what the price point is. I’ll give them credit for putting a bed slide in a mid profile 5th wheel but it comes at the cost of minimal wardrobe storage. Thanks for the video.
Again, I wish I could see the plumbing. The lack of self staying cupboards is such a shame. That is SUPER annoying in a trailer. The designers need to think about their brand and what will annoy a human a million times reminding them they hate something about their product. A simple thing like just making it so your cupboards stay open is big in long term experience. Like as soon as I saw that I thought of how mad my cupboards make me in our current trailer. The bedroom is the best part. Wish it had theater seats. But it does look very nice otherwise!
It was a very nice RV and did look like a hotel room. Oh, and thanks for giving me and my husband a good laugh. Glad you left the blooper in! L🙂L
Wow!! I have to agree with you - this thing is absolutely stunning!! Did you tell us how long it is, or did i miss it? Thanks for the tour!!
33 to 34’
That chocolate & peanut butter look is nice...
🙌
I have complained for a decade that the brown on brown on brown old man tan packages HAD to change because not all RV buyers are 70 year old men. Brinkley finally broke through that wall. THIS looks even better IMO. Because a fifth wheel must have tightly held cabinet doors, you can not go away with handles because after a few days your finger tips are going to be raw trying to open those doors. Corner radius showers suck and are a deal breaker for me no matter how gorgeous. Not enough closet space because of the front windshield. That is it. Please keep making RVs for people who actually have style and taste.
Don’t like the colour of the seating or bottom of island. Sorry, it’s an ugly 💩 brown.
Chairs look cheap and uncomfortable. Would like to see windows without shades pulled down.
Love hidden storage! Stove off centre is fine.
NEED struts for bed. It’ll fall on your back/neck!!!!!
How long is this 5th wheel?
Shower, chintzy shower head, looks cramped
Your blooper was hilarious 🤣 😆 😅 As for this unit, it's like walking into a brand new condo! Very impressive. Every room is gorgeous! Literally like a new, modern condo. But...curtains yuck. The bed needs struts. Was surprised about that. No handles on drawers and cupboards is definitely a clean look but for some they will be hard to open. Surprised the shower is a radius. That refrigerator is not a good brand. Definitely nicer looking than Brinkley. Not a fan of Brinkley at all. Got to say again though...Wow! This unit is really, really nice. Thank you for sharing. God bless 🙏
Definitely the best interior design of any you've shown. I agree with you! A couple things I'd change, like a cabinet in bathroom rather than the little shelf for more towel storage. That bedding is awesome!!
Basically the interior designer killed it. Everything else is so so. How can you compare this to a brinkley?
The aesthetics are very nice and modern/contemporary. It does not make me want to give up my 2021 Dutchmen Atlas, mid bunk, double vanity and huge shower for it! Bought new in 2021 and have had no problems! I do love me some fifth wheels! Can't beat the available floor plans!
Very nice camper.
The woodwork is great and I also like the light strips.
I'm actually fine with no handles.
The oven is a good size but you're right. Too close to the wall.
Haven't made my mind up about 12v fridges.
The bedroom is a nice size.
But I would have liked a hidden TV that pops up in front of the windows at the foot of the bed.
I'd install two lift assist struts for $40.
They missed on not having an AM / FM CD player for the main TV. (Or you didn't show that).
Also the chairs and table look below par and don't go with the rest of the unit.
Also, they missed on not having more counter space by not moving the outlet or having those collapsible outlets and putting a fold down a extension on the end of the island.
You can never have too much counter space.
No place for a broom or to hang costs when you come in and there is room for that.
One point - you always say you have a "critique" when you aren't fond of something when you probably mean "criticism".
In actuality your whole video is a critique (aka evaluation).
You could call it constructive criticism to not be negative.
One request is a review of the mid bunk version of this if you haven't done one. If you have please post a link for me.
(I know this is 8 months later but it just showed up for me and I'm saving all the ones I like to make comparisons for a year or so down the line)
Thanks for the great content.
I love that they did something modern and different, and though I love the lighting throughout, I DETEST the caramel color...especially with gray. I hate when cool tones are mixed with warm tones, though.
What I hope other manufacturers copy from this is the lack of the tacky, old-fashioned tribal tats all over the exterior. Like, it's not the 90's; can we stop doing that already? As much as I love what Brikley did with the straight lines, and how E2W and Eagle are copying it, I'm still like "Dude, just do NO decals, please." I don't want pay extra for something I don't even want in the first place. They could at least make it an option.
It is beautiful. The perfect layout! Would love to see soft close features and stay open on the upper cabinets and bed storage. Needs a hand rail up to bedroom. Disappearing hand rail would be perfect. Thanks for sharing!
Where is the heat ducting... ceiling?
They run it through vents in the cabinets and under the island I believe. That’s how every brand does it when there aren’t floor vents.
High contrast organic modern is what I’m calling it and I love it….. room for improvement tho. Dining chairs lame. Bed should be strut assisted. No nightstand on left side of bed. Curtains in master awesome but still need shades behind. Not enough storage in master bedroom by a long shot. Shower needs to be a bit bigger.
Maybe over next couple years they will tweak things but this is a great start
As the owner of a previous 2011 33ft heartland 5th wheel and now a 2020 heartland bighorn traveler 40plus ft..this is a step down for me..why buy a fifth wheel that looks like a hotel? Looks like they partnered with Ikea and took the homely look out. No cabinet space for pots and pans. Big desk space in bedroom that took out half the closet so washer/dryer option is out. Bedroom curtains should provide privacy, not faded natural light. I'm in the market to go back to something under 35ft but if this decor is Heartland's new theme direction, I'll be looking at other manufacturers. Sorry for the downsides but you did ask.
