Grand Design is the NICEST Entry Level Travel Trailer Ive ever seen!

[@waynesvideos9]

Great review I like when you guys do more entry-level stuff that more people can afford. I like watching the high-end stuff but in all honesty more people are like me in my look at entry-level stuff thanks for showing us.

[@roadkillz78]

Matt, I would like to make a request for future videos regarding slides. Would you be able to *bing* in an insert picture of the trailers with their slides in? This way we can see what they look like slide-in and it will still save time for your videos.

[@brianrobertson8808]

The 3 I like about this travel trailer: 1.the water hookups, black tank flush, and easy access to the black tank dump 2. the layout and the amount of windows combo that with the bathroom 3. the awning goes over the outside kitchen The 3 I don't like about this travel trailer: 1. the entry steps 2. the ladder 3. no sink in the outside kitchen

[@ladonnarhoads2786]

Guys, I love your reviews, but I think you missed one of the best - possibly most innovative features of this TT. The counter and cubbies right inside the door. A place for shoe storage! I really enjoyed seeing that. I think you also gave the kitchen short shift. There was more counter space in this entry level TT than there was in the Pace Arrow motorhome video posted on same day. Keep the towable reviews coming! Thanks.

[@roadkillz78]

This has the kind of floor plan I was looking for in a trailer! And the price is great too! Thanks guys!

[@lancomedic]

This proves that thoughtful design need not cost more. This is a great entry level trailer that a small family could pay cash for without going broke and would pay for itself after a couple of vacations. Although the wide profile aluminum panels look much better than most I wonder about the longevity of this type of construction especially when it comes to water intrusion.

[@johnyoung5648]

I love all the interior storage,the good sized bathroom and the kitchen. I dislike the ladder to the roof. Not to much to dislike about this one.

[@davidbishop466]

For the $$$ this is an awesome unit. ❤️❤️❤️

[@sandym4875]

We love Grand Design towables. Love the bathroom. Amazing space. We don't need bunks, but they are great for families with small kids.

[@mamamia5556]

First of all I like the price, the space inside, and spacious ref & oven below cooker, good full bath👍ping

[@saravaezi2001]

This is very nice. I just wish the bunk beds were like in a room with a little independecy and privacy

[@lancomedic]

In a trailer this small I think you are kicking the kids out anyway when it's mommy and daddy time.

[@saravaezi2001]

@@lancomedic 😆😆😆 true. But I kinda was thinking about adult guests to have some privacy I know it has curtains but well a door would be nice

[@michelebrassell4487]

Love Grand Design!! Likes: 1. Separate bedroom with walk around bed and storage. 2. Overall layout allowing for it to feel spacious when the whole family is in the living area. 3. Furrion appliances in kitchen. 4. Storage area in entry way for shoes and extra counter space. 5. Dinette and a sofa, often in entry level trailers you get one not both. 6. I like the openness of the bunk area, mind is spinning wondering if bunks could be removed for desk area for crafting, hmm? 7. Love the bathroom, they always include storage and this trailer delivered. Storage, nice shower, and toilet! 8. Storage in kitchen. 9. Outside storage. 10. Black tank flush, dump area and wet bay. 11. Power tongue jack. 12. Large fresh water tank. Dislikes: 1. Ladder placement. 2 Steps into trailer. 3, Wood not aluminum construction. 4. Emergency window in bedroom looks a little small.

[@sicily6740]

Thoughtful design in a nice-looking trailer. The outside "kitchen" is handy, and even the refrigerator door opens so it's out of the way. The open cubbies on the cabinet just inside the door would be a great place to keep shoes; the kitchen is small be serviceable, bunks are not like crypts, and the bathroom is very well planned.

[@kenjepsen4579]

I liked the video and love this trailer design. I'd like it without the bunks though.. Also I miss seeing what the interiors look like with the slides in like you do with the RV's..

[@johnleslie9493]

Surprised you didn’t take a closer look at the sophisticated wet bay. Not uncommon on higher end trailers but you hardly ever see one that nice in a stick & tin model. Also the tank sizes - 68 fresh is good but 78 gallons gray is a HUGE advantage especially for boondocking. And the build quality on these is really superior even compared to high end trailers. Thanks for the tour guys!

[@sherriweber7105]

Hi Matt and Will this trailer looks really nice Grand Design did a grest job on it. Only two things I didn’t like was where they put the ladder and the tires. But everything else was great. It’s spacious on the inside. It’s really nice on the outside and love the outdoor kitchen even with no sink it still usable. Thank Grand Design and Matt and Will. See you next time.

[@bobbydavenport5417]

I also love the porclin toilet

[@darthgoggins1747]

You know having Will along for these trailers is a good idea. His height and everything gives a good real world idea of space. I like that because even though I'm not 6 foot I don't like to be cramped either.

[@TammiHartung]

This is amazing for entry level from Grand Design (it’s nearly perfect) Love : The floor plan Kitchen is terrific with good counter space and the appliances are perfect for the size (plus the outside kitchen) Open bunk area Bathroom has plenty of storage Shower “curtain” Porcelain toilet! Dislikes: That ladder looks sketchy Is it prepped for solar? Cheap tires and wheel wells

[@donnalandry3057]

This would be the entry level trailer I would buy. I love the floor plan. I love everything about the inside of this trailer.

[@pattijohnson8197]

Wow, I really like this. Wish it had a king-size bed but it's OK especially with the one pocket door. The brown cabinetry is nice, even with the matching refrigerator (especially all the same brand). I like the placement of the kitchen and that extra peninsula by the dinette. I wish you'd sat down to see how big/small the seating was. Bathroom is great!!! It's very nice for the price. I'd take out the bunks for a desk (if possible).

[@emilyanderson2970]

Could you guys start showing the slides in on the towable‘s so we can see what you can get to on driving days

[@botaqhead]

Emily Anderson yes please 👍🏽

[@saravaezi2001]

Matt have you seen the 2021 keystone passport 3400QD? I absolutely adore it. Really would love to see your opinion about it

[@kamitch290]

That's a nice layout on a less expensive trailer. I would suggest for an individual or a couple, eliminate the bunks. This way you could expand the bathroom a bit or put a drop down table along the back wall for a desk area. Folding chair could be stored under the bed. Microwave could be a bit bigger. However, with the growing popularity of air fryer ovens, that would eliminate the need for a larger microwave. I also like "the island" set against the dining area. More counter and storage space without taking up much space.This is a great priced starter trailer. Love it!

[@mbonse]

You have shown a few Grand Design towables. We really like this one and the 2600rb. Thank you! Decisions, decisions.

[@BeccaTheBoring]

Wow, I really like how open that camper feels! 100% would pull that teeny outside fridge out and put a washer/dryer combo. It has enough cold storage with that inside fridge. That’s pretty much my only “dislike. Everything else is amazing!

[@kamitch290]

That's a good idea about the washer/dryer combo.

[@bobellis1022]

For entry level travel trailers, the Transcends are, in my opinion, the best of the best! Thanks for the video Matt and Will! Love the fact that you can get a really nice kitchen, sink, pull out sprayer, love the matching Furion appliances, especially the fridge, the cabinets are great, the outside kitchen is ok but not great, and the bathroom is pretty good especially the shower. I almost forgot but like the fact they put a power tongue jack on the entry level Transcends.

[@mikepizza76]

Nice looking trailer, and for the price, what a value. I'd like to see a manufacturer do a travel trailer similar to this floorplan layout, but without the bunk area. Like a couples deluxe model. Extend the bathroom into the bunk area, add a washer/dryer, and add a nice sized pantry or closet or desk set up all in the bunk area as well. I think a lot of couples would love the functionality and real use they could get out of that. 3 likes 1. Bathroom, shower is a good size and placement of the sink and toilet are practical. 2. Like the different set up of the kitchen. Every budget friendly trailer has the same basic design, like the change up. And love the 12volt compressor refrigerator. 3. Living area is simple but wide open and cozy. Sofa looks great and is placed perfectly across from the TV and dinnett. 3. Dislikes 1. Ladder on the side of trailer for sure. 2. Placement of TV in the bedroom, makes no sense to have it all the way at the top corner on the side wall parallel to the bed. 3. Stove and oven. The stove top really could use a little bit more room on the sides, and definitely a backsplash. Even a cheap wall plastic wall covering. The oven could be a little bit bigger. Goodluck finding Barbie Doll cook ware to fit in it. Good job Matt and Will. Keep up the good work and enjoy your vids.

[@2busysecretary]

Love everything but the bath location. I prefer the bath next to the Master away from the living area.

[@daisyduck3118]

Likes: Open floorplan and I like the cabinet next to the door - would be great place for shoes Bathroom layout with no shower curtain Outside kitchen Dislikes: Stove area is a little cramped Wardrobe space is very limited Dark wood color - is it so much more expensive to use lighter colors??

[@coachtalk1]

Three things I like are...the kitchen area, the outdoor kitchen and motorized hitch. Three things I don’t like are...as much as I like the kitchen I just don’t like wood on the refrigerator, the ladder-it seems like it is just too close to the wall of the trailer-no where to put your feet, and I would have like a few cabinets above the couch.

[@felinef4022]

I like the high end features, bathroom, and the tv placement. I don't like the ladder, no solid steps, and 1 ac.

[@historyb5786]

Three thing we like: Oven Fridge exterior Three things we don't like: Bunks ladder Bedroom

[@agratefulsoul2816]

Nice floorplan and retry level TT. My 3's: Dislikes: 1.Outside kitchen is lame. 2. Cramped going into the bathroom. 3. I don't like the fact that the bunks are all open. It will be tough to get kiddos to stay asleep if adults stay up later. Likes: 1. I like the cabinet just inside the door. 2. Like rhe wood grain refrigerator. 3. Like the bathroom. Thanks.

[@HippieLongHaired]

Maybe the reason that they put the ladder on the side of the trailer instead of the back is so that you can clean the top of the slide without getting on the roof.

[@furswithpurrs4768]

I like the bathroom itself, however I don't like it's location. It opens into the dining room. Put it by the bedroom. I like the flooring and the bedroom area. Nice appliances. Could you please tell us about how this is heated ?

[@chrisrowland2223]

Yes, my favorite time of night. Matt Time

[@maryloutallon]

Agree with all of Matt's & Will's likes and dislikes. Other Likes: Power tongue jack Pass through basement storage Cam prep Other Dislikes: Wood and Aluminum (understand it keeps the price down) Prefer bathroom adjacent to bedroom Prefer centrally located TV in bedroom Thank you guys!

[@josephmirigliano8728]

This is nice for what it is

[@ltemple1962]

I like this trailer. The color of the cabinets are great. I love the sofa and the shower. Do they offer a floor plan without the bunks? Don’t like the ladder for the roof and wish it had a convection microwave.

[@cookingwithcuyandotherfuns6238]

Hi Matt--- the ladder appears to stow against the RV wall but has two pins at the bottom which let it pivot away from the wall to let you climb it and get your feet fully on the rungs.

[@jimmoore7725]

Matt, I agree with you and Will on pros and cons. There were two things you didn’t point out. First, there was some type of control center near the bedroom. Second there looked to be a radio in the cabinet beside the TV above the dinette. Also, I would like to know about the AC and heat. I like this trailer! Keep up the great videos. Jim

[@juliehurdle9112]

Nice for it’s size

[@dimplezdimples8451]

So excited that you ate the “c” in Transcend in the thumbnail 😂😂😂 and three times in the description.

[@richardclark8520]

Great for a small family. But not for a single guy. Bunks just waste to much precious space. But if you are looking for a Bunk House. This is a good floor plan.

[@keribill]

Loving the videos!! Might I suggest you set up playlists by Make?

[@NonyaDamnbusiness]

Matt's RV Reviews Towables - now available in both short-n-big (Matt) and tall-n-big (Will). Get yours today! I think Will's fitting in nicely and is doing a good job. Haven't seen him bang his head on anything yet. And I agree on this new trend of going towards ladders that have little to no room to squarely get your foot in there - that's just a lawsuit waiting to happen. I was in the Army for over a decade and even our "designed and installed by the lowest bidder" ladders on the sides of some our vehicles were better than that. Fold-down STEPS are better than that! It was easier and safer getting on and off my M1A1 Heavy tank during a combat deployment while under fire than it is climbing those ladders. off-topic: Is anyone even having any RV shows next year or have they all been canceled/"virtualized" due to the coof?

[@endofsociety]

This is definitely a family weekender. Wouldn’t keep it out in the winter. Would definitely have to store it inside. Ya know, Wood framing and all. I was never too fond of these floor plans. Don’t like the open bunks. To each is own. The price is pretty good though.

[@brianh494]

3 Likes: 1: Nice bathroom 2: Spacious layout 3: Clean, modern, and simple exterior and interior design 3 Dislikes: 1: Weird ladder location 2: No sink for the outdoor kitchen 3: Cheap-looking wheels

[@MalaineGill]

Hey Matt ... Maybe U & Will Can Get a Drone to Film the Top of the RV's When U Dont Want to Climb on the Ladder ?? Thanks for the Reviews I Love them & Watch them All the Time

[@henryford2736]

I'll get one because I don't have walk on roof and I need to inspect it. Great idea.

[@bigjimslade6250]

Here we go now 😎 I like 1) the slide out, 2) the power tongue Jack, & 3) MSRP. I dislike 1) the black rock guard, 2) the tire rims (prefer chrome or aluminum), & 3) the side ladder.

[@MichaelGalletly]

Is the roof walkable? Is it pre-wired for solar? How accessible are the functions when the slide is in? Thanks!

[@salempoor678]

Absolutely love my Grand Design Imagine. That said, the sink in the huge bathroom is too small to wash your hands. But the bigger gripe, is the fact that the gray tank valve, not sure which one, do not close all the way. You get about 2 gallons of grey water dumping out when you pull the drain cap. More than likely, this is some ABS cement that ended up leaking into the valve guide.

[@kendrawaterbury2328]

I like it!

[@GrummanIsComin]

Just my opinion ... LIKES: 1. Spacious interior & interior colors 2. TV placement (in living area) 3. Bunk (layout: spacious and windows) DISLIKES: 1. Dinette table design (round the edges) 2. Ladder (too close to the unit) 3. Window size in bedroom (maybe make them bigger)

[@janicesullivan8942]

Hi Matt, Hi Will Likes: Electric tongue jack Massive basement storage, with nice wet bay Small outside kitchen TV placement across from sofa Nice kitchen Affordable price Great for a family Big shower Porcelain potty Like the area for shoes, books or maps Spare tire is easy to get to Dislikes: none that would make me not want to buy it Thanks guys

[@saltysteveandmisfitmichele]

Love that these are now standard with solar already installed with inverter and 12 volt refrigerator. Also like the bathroom size and PPPP. Dislike the side ladder and the all dark brown colors. We wish they had kept the 187mk with the Murphy bed over the new 200mk. This puts the Imagine xls 17mke at the top.

[@-Lee-Lee]

Great job guys!

[@dominictortona7374]

Nice layout but don’t like fridge and stove on a slide. Also looked lime could not open kitchen cabinet door fully. Take out bunks and add little more to bathroom as well as a closet

[@itsyaboia-dub1120]

Hopefully pricing in today's market is still reasonable.

[@TMPM2021]

Side ladder is because where the skylight is in bathroom

[@bobbydavenport5417]

Verry nice unit don't like the ladder if it's weak I way I wiegh 235

[@RockerRed]

Thank you!

[@1robertmkelly]

This is a nice trailer for this price point. I would need to upgrade the tires and buy a real ladder, but those are easy upgrades.

[@michiganprospector8209]

Love the lack of wavy outside stripes

[@ElDiabloTheExplorer]

Good design on this trailer at this price point.

[@JohnnyC10071959]

Not for nothing but why is the grey tank bigger than the fresh tank?

[@bonnierodgers5220]

I have a dislike, the lack of storage. We had an old 26’ travel trailer with no slide and had 3x the amount of storage!

[@okeefer2000]

Is the fridge door one of those that open in both directions ?

[@craiglampert8467]

Haw long is the box length

[@figmentforce1712]

Likes - counter top space, shower size, price Dislikes - no sink in outdoor kitchen, no backsplash in kitchen, ladder

[@patricklyons1863]

Does this have a good insulation layer.

[@SpykersB]

Why?? Do you hate the ladder?? What’s the issue with it? It’s really annoying when anyone says they hate something without an explanation.

[@jim76hr]

Wheels look fine I disagree with Matt on this one. Great trailer for the price.

[@YsSpy1]

nice one !

[@estellesmith57]

I don't like the outdoor kitchen. It takes away from the inside. I don't like that style of bunks. Give me the option to fold them up. I don't like cheap countertops. I do love that bathroom. The kitchen is passable considering the price of the trailer. I like that the awning is so large.

[@1coalburner]

Let's see it with the side closed.

[@sapphiresword139]

Burned out on towables.

[@cnbsdad]

Matt please bring back your wife. She has much more enthusiasm and works the camera better :)

[@jeffgann2818]

Go through the video and count how many times they say "entry level trailer " 🤔

[@chrisd4454]

Likes, kitchen, good bathroom, storage pass through outside Dislike, too limited storage inside, ladder, bedroom TV placement, battery should be inside.

[@Chimp_6]

Sorry, but I don't see anything "Grand" about this "Stick n Tin".
