Other brands we have had constantly drip/shower sawdust and pieces of junk out of the roof, vents, and cupboards every time we drive down the road and we have to vacuum and wipe everything down each time. It is a pain! So glad to see these guys taking care of each stage and making it clean and easier on the customer.

That was really good, folks. One thing I noticed over other factory tours is how clean everything looked. We've done several factory tours and we were constantly stepping over stuff on the floor (sawdust, screws, wiring pieces, etc.). The inside of the units being built was the same way. Brinkley seems to be a step above on so many levels. Brinkley (Z3610 and G3500) are on the short list for our next rig. Thanks for an honest review; makes the decision that much easier!

I don't have anything bad to say about Brinkley. The problem I have is watching the workers in the plant, they are moving as fast as they can. Guys are running putting the roof on, the same guys putting the screws in look like it is a competition who can do more. Mistakes are often overlooked when we work at this speed. I've worked over 30 years for myself and quality trumps speed every time. You do 10 things well and nothing really gets said but make one mistake and the word travels quickly.
@mikemiller91199 ай бұрын
That is correct, specially if no one is checking the work has been completed correctly. But then again, these workers I'm sure know they were being watched or filmed. When that happens, they want to show off their skills and how quickly it could be done. Kind of a way to impress the boss or the people that are watching.
@gregcook39899 ай бұрын
During our factory tour about a week before Craig and Victoria’s, I was impressed by the speed as well, but noticed most of the workers had a smile on their faces. I’ve seen the same thing in the construction industry where crews that work together 5 or 6 days a week can be fast and good. It’s like a competition within your group to get better, it helps the work day pass more quickly. Another thing that impressed me was when the workers were screwing down the roof deck, any screw that snapped they worked the screw head back out then put another screw in. Many workers would not have taken the trouble and just kept up production.

You clearly don't work in manufacturing, Time is money... Cycle times are the most important part of manufacturing, you would cringe if you saw how your car or truck was built. And yes that's what I do for a living is automation for manufacturing. You have a set time to get your station completed, most of the workers are also Amish or Menanite in Indiana and they are used to working hard and fast. A lot of these plants allow the workers to do piece work, if they make their quote for the day by noon they get to leave after they are done. If they take their time then they stay longer during the day. They also have PDI which is supposed to catch all of the possible quality issues ( But doesn't always catch everything as I know from my Alliance Valor). If it took 2 weeks to build a trailer you would be on a waiting list for years to get a trailer. Mass production is key to getting a new trailer in a timely manner.

@@JeffGarrison-xz9qq this unit is number 101. I’m sure when the company first got things rolling there were problems. We had an 03 motorhome with a neo angle shower door. Every time we took a shower, as soon as we opened the door it dumped water on the floor and carpet. We just assumed it was our fault because of not leveling perfect or something. It turns out that a teeny little black plastic plug at the end of the track had fallen out. It’s these little things that when discovered a company finds a way to improve it. In my experience as a homeowner and using various sealants and caulking compounds I’ve found that silicone products seal badly. We had a professionally installed shower door with an anodized frame sealed to a porcelain tub with white RTV. After several months due to constant heating and contraction etc it leaked. Fortunately it was quite obvious and we had to remove the doors, the top rails, the side frame and pry off the track to reseal it. It was not our only tub shower thankfully. We were without that tub for the better part of a week. In an RV with limited work space, a single shower, and likely no close by Home Depot, this would have been a pain to fix. The company that did our shower door install told us they have since changed to a different caulk since the original was failing.

Found after 4 years a plastic bottle with pennies in it, shaken once and hat behavior was done. He never did it again.

We looked at the 3610 before purchasing our 3100 and considered it. Like you Craig, I would have loved to have a dedicated office to use as an edit suite. But, we really wanted to stay 35' or less on the trailer so we went with the 3100. Looking forward to your Alaska trip. We were gonna go this year, but after buying the Brinkley, we decided not to go break it in the first year. Totally agree on the residential look and feel. The first night Toni and I sat in the rig we both said we didn't feel like we were in a trailer, we felt like we were in an apartment. Love how it feels in the inside. Agree on the Furrion appliances. We are currently dealing with an issue with our fridge. The compressor just stopped working. We had to leave the rig for 4 days for a video shoot in Los Angeles and when we got back we had a mobile tech come look at it. He pulled it out, fired it up to check the power to the compressor and now it's working fine. Of course that now scares me because who knows when it's going to crap out again. I really don't want to throw away a couple couple hundred dollars of groceries again. I wish they would have gone with a residential fridge, but as you mentioned, that would have added cost. Not just in the cost of the appliance but once you go residential, you now have to add an inverter. The back storage was also a selling point for us. We travel with a lot of gear as we do corporate video work while on the road. I was worried that with the 3100 not being a drop frame, we wouldn't have enough storage. The back storage made up for that and was the prefect size for one of your Pelican cases. 100% agree on the customer service. We've had a few issues with our rig since we got it and Brinkley has been amazing. Some of the issues weren't even caused by Brinkely but were the fault of our incompetent dealer. Brinkley could have just walked away and left us fighting with the dealer, but they didn't. They covered the repairs in a timely and friendly manner. As far as I am concerned that's the most important thing to look for when purchasing a rig. Things are going to break on any rig, you need a dealer that will stand behind the product and Brinkley absolutely does that!!! Lastly, since you guys are heading out west we're gonna be in the west too. We will be spending the summer and fall in the northwest quarter of the US. If we wind up in the same area we should meet up and swap Brinkley stories! As always a great video! Safe travels!!!

The Alaska trip should be a true dyno test to the durability of your Brinkley. You should probably plan on stopping back into their plant on your way back. Good luck.

I hit the like simply because Craig said that you were being gifted a 3610! That would be awesome 😂😂😂

How old is that young man. Reminds me of a young man that gave me a tour of a nuclear submarine. The kid was 25 years old and knew everything about that boat. This kid knows everything about Brinkley.

He is very knowledgeable. It's pretty surprising how much he knows about it all.

Thank you. Im loving the transparency of the tour. I'm a bit concerned about the speed those man where working @. Easy to make simple tiny mistakes. Along with big ones. Reckless workmanship. They deserve better working conditions. And customers deserve this also. Just saying. You guys are great & i am grateful.✌️😊

Watching the factory tour noticed that nearly all of the workers were Amish who have the best work ethic ever.

Rosie and I bought unit 392 last spring. We spent the summer going to Alaska and the winter out here in the LTVA near Yuma Az. Best company in the business by far. We toured the plant and have known Nate and Micah for years. These guys know how to back a product. Burlington Bill busking on the road and on You Tube.

So with the waste and freshwater tanks being built in how do you remove them if they ever break or leak?
@wildrvlife9 ай бұрын
I believe the tanks can just slide forward or back and out how they normally would do it.

Next time you do a tour suggest vinyl plank flooring instead of sheet vinyl. That way if the floor is damaged you can just replace the damaged plank.

I've been looking at several 5vr's with a (retired) automotive engineering eye. For what they are, I find Brinkey's to be a quility product and they're not afraid of innovating, using wiring harnesses for example. It's a little disappointing they use OSB in lieu of marine grade ply, but this is not a deal breaker. Given the outragous margins they earn off these units, they could switch and still earn good profit. I would consider purchasing one if they made a unit smaller than the 2900. Of course these are not on the level of a New Horizons or SpaceCraft, but they also cost less than half as much. As mentioned, go look at a Grans Design or similar, and you will be glad you chose a Brinkley.

I think eventually, you'd have figured out the adjustments, I did thinking I was simply tightening the hinge! LOL
