Wanted to update my review from last year. This trailer is probably the worst purchase I have ever made. Might want to sit and take a minute to read this. It's detailed.
Let me start off by saying I've been camping since I was 6 years old. So I'm definitely not new to this. Nor am I a super boujie person. I'm actually not at all, anyway.
After rearranging my cabinets numerous times, I've come to the conclusion that inside storage is a huge problem. When people come to visit for a weekend, literally everyone's clothes (including mine and my daughter's) take up the whole top bunk.
The only, one, closet in the bunk room is used for games and crafts for the kids. Clothes aren't able to be stored in the kids room.
The only real significant storage is in the pantry which is super deep, but you need to step up onto the slideout step (about inches up) in order to reach in the back. You'd have to put shelves on the shelves to help keep it organized. But don't put too much cause then it starts to warp in. Such as a water gallon or water bottles, soda, whatever. That's definitely got to go on the bottom.
Kitchen counter space is so horrible. My toaster and coffee machine take up literally the whole counter, so forget about preparing food near your sink and stove. You'll have to do all that on the dinette table, but make sure the kids aren't at the only table or indoor "play area". Unless you want your kids in bed all day while it's raining .
My awning arm broke 7 minutes into a downpour. That was this past summer.
Also, the cold water hose under my bathroom sink was never clamped tight enough, and I had about a half an inch of water under the cabinet, which seeped under my shower and into my livingroom under the corener shelves and fireplace. All the wood swelled up with water and mold. I also noticed the floor board seam (under the actual floor) was raising and started to come up through my bathroom floor.
Because the front jack was twisted which made the wall panel in my bedroom warp inwards the floor also was creaking. That wasn't fixed over the winter year one (2 months after buying it BRAND NEW) so they are fixing it along with the other newly arised issues, replacing the water damaged wood, and my awning arm. This is winter #2 and both winters it was in the shop getting fixed. So I only used this trailer for literally 6 months.
I purchased this trailer May 2022.
It was delivered July 2022 due to delivery discrepancies from the dealship- no available personnel & RV shows.
Picked up Sept 2022 to fix the front twisted jack, warped bedroom wall panel, a broken USB port and slide out tracking system because it wouldn't completely open or close.
Was delivered back to me in May 2023.
Awning arm snapped June 2023.
Water found from opening bathroom sink cabinet to get cleaning supplies and found molded warped wood June 2023.
End of July (ONLY APPOINTMENT AVAILABLE) the dealership came to fix water leak, covered under extra roadside and site warranty. Put in awning arm which ended up being the wrong size (too short). Oh, which then, while putting up the new, short arm, accidently tore/ separated the seam of the awning connecting to the top of the trailer. Only then did I find out that it was actually a manufacturer defect and was a recall due to the faulty and wrong glue. Go figure. But I was never notified about it before that or even after.
They assessed the damage and decided I should call and arrange for them to pick it up for the winter so they can make all necessary repairs at the shop since they would have to lift the trailer to fix the floor beam and find out why the bedroom floor is creaking.
So overall this thing has been a nightmare and it's been a huge headache. Couldn't even imagine if I actually used this trailer as a "travel" trailer which it is designed to be. After all warranties and extra add ons for road side assistance I spent almost $50,000 on something I've only used for 6 months. I have about $35,000 left on my loan. I'm just over it.
