Coachmen Clipper Ultra-Lite 17FQS 17FQS reviews

We purchased this new and have now used it for one season and beginning the second. Everything continues to work as intended and we have had no issues. The couch was torn at the time of purchase with the request put in for replacement. It did take a few months, but replaced without issue. Overall my husband and I are very comfortable in the bed after upgrading the mattress. We are both 6'2'' and both "fluffy" people, and it is easy enough to get in and out of the bed. No problem with pulling down the murphy bed. Dinette is useless. Storage is limited, but we find it enough for us. Love the bathroom. This would not be a good choice for a family. Show less

We owned a 24 ft Springdale and decided to downsize mostly because of weight and I don't want a 30 or 40 ft trailer behind me as we have a lot of hills in our area so we bought the Clipper. The first thing I had to deal with was the lack of storage space for food, utensils and other day to day stuff. I purchased a small over the toilet vanity that is 23" wide and 7" deep. Added a few shelves to the lower section and it fits neatly between the back wall and slide. Next I bought a sheet of 1/2 plywood and made drawers to fit under the sink. Have one for cutlery, one dishcloths and towels and a third for other utensils and such. Under the stove I put in two sliding drawers 12x24" that we use for extra food and such. Under the seats the storage areas I divided in half and at the end of each seat I put in doors for even more storage. We store our pots and pans and plates and bowls and other items in those. Since it's only the two of us I removed the table and replaced it with a pedestal style that's only half the size. I made a padded seat to fit across the back and now have a U shaped area that's great when you want to put your feet up. Sure wish Coachman had thought about these things in their design stage. I wish I could add photos here to see how great all these additions look. Show less
