They’ve made some nice improvements since the first version. My wife and I owned the first version with the slide out and after living with it for a year we found it had too many problems to keep it. The non-ducted AC made the trailer too hot in the summer time, the swing doors in the bathroom always got in the way, the round sink was actually very nice to live with but the thermofoil counter had its top separating after about 6 months, and not having a plug on the other side of the dinette was a killer.

My folks had a 1976or 77 Yellowstone, they ordered it brand new, as I recall it was 26ft. Same basic layout. It had a front "goucho" with a driver side wall mount table and a chair next to the stove. It then had a small metal and vinyl rocking chair made by Homecrest (they made office and patio furniture) The bed went east to west. We took that thing all over the place. It worked for 3 people. At 60 and having grown up camping I keep telling my husband that they need to look at some of the old layouts for "new" ideas

My wife and I love this layout. We just bought one of these, but it doesn't have the windshield, and are picking it up today. We would have preferred a rectangular sink, but it's not a deal breaker. What would be nice is either a rail or a net across the front above the dinette seat to store chips, snacks, cookies, etc. especially since you can't put a front cabinet up there.

All campers should come with a showermiser in today’s manufacturing. No excuses!! Especially if they have a tankless hot water heater. Obviously the manufacturers don’t have tankless hot water heaters and have no clue about water consumption during water heating during initial start up. This and the 4 inch fart fan needs done away with all together. Seriously. Neither the showermiser or max air style vent fans are expensive. They are already charging top dollar for these things. They should include both the showermiser and a good vent fan. It’s just being lazy and cheap to not make these two things a mandatory upgrade from here on out. Please pass this along to the powers to be so possibly they can remove there craniums from there rectums. Thanks Josh. Great review as usual my friend.

I am crazy about this layout. Entering into the living space makes so much more sense. If it's not a convection microwave, it should be, and if it's a short queen anyway, I'd prefer it to be an east-west layout bed. Those things, plus about 800lbs more of capacity and it would be perfection. SIDENOTE: I really appreciate the more modern finish of the interior - flat panel, european style cabinets; sleeker shade/blind covers; and a truly neutral-but-not-grey interior.

We have a 2006 feather light. That’s 21 feet long tip to tail. So about 19 feet of living space. No slide out. It is double axle though. Laid out almost exactly like this. It has the U-shaped dinette. With storage behind the cushion on the driver side. Our stove is in the corner. Across from the kitchen ( next to the entrance door)is a very spacious pantry and the refrigerator to the right of that. Across the back of the camper, we have a camp queen bed with the bathroom next to it. The only drawback, but it’s not really a problem for us, is that you have to crawl into the bed. our camper has so much storage in it, it’s the reason why we haven’t traded ours in and we like the smaller size because it’s easier to tow and to take into state parks

As small trailers go, this is one of the best layouts I have seen. You can get virtually anywhere with that one. State parks, provincial parks, national parks no worries.

We have a bigger trailer than that now, but with the way we travel, a downsize might eventually be on the menu.

I really like the Lagun because of it's versitility. I've never worked with a circular sink, but there is no way I'd want a farm sink or even just a larger one taking up counter space. I love the verticle placement of the 2 burner stove, it's perfect. Look at the space it gives! Just warms my heart. The drawers are awesome! It's nice to see so many. The window coverage is great, very generous, That dinette could have easily been cave-like without them. I'd love to see a twin option with this. The queen is nice though, and the dinette would be fine for the occasional friend trip. That is really tall hanging storage. I see a lot of space waste there. First, unless someone is bringing a gown along that is too much verticle space. Cut it in half and put a couple of drawers in, or a drawer and a shelf. As long as we are making it more useful, allow space for a side table area. Enough for a cpap, some open space for a book, tablet, etc. Overall, a nice little camper. I like the footprint.

They should totally do this with 2 twin beds!!! You mentioned it, but you got distracted I think and didn't finish your thought. LOL. And they'll be longer than this short queen as well. I have the 179 DBKX right now because of kids. I love this one!!!

Nice single / couple travel trailer. I would like to see a list of travel trailers sorted by hitch weight so we small to 1/2 ton Tv owner can narrow our options searches. We know big rigs need big trucks but hitch weight is the deciding factor for many new and down sizing customer. Thanks Josh for this tour video

I really love this smaller trailer especially the wrap around cushions with the adjustable table! Love all the drawers in the kitchen. Do not like the small round sink and why didn't they put drawers in that empty space in the bathroom? I am impressed that it has a separate bedroom. Thanks for all the wonderful videos you produce 😘

I love this camper although weight may be a concern. I may have pocked this over our epro with the murphy bed - having a separate bedroom is cool!

Love the this campers floor plan; would love to downsize from our GD 22MLE but the dated wood frame and NOT being Azdel. And I’m OK with at least 600lbs of cargo capacity.

I love this layout. I’m new to RV shopping and have zero knowledge. Why is the cargo capacity an issue? How many pounds can you actually carry in this after the water is full? Thanks to anyone who answers 😊
@JoshtheRVNerd15 күн бұрын
Weight from cargo adds up way faster than you’d think. It’s very reasonable an owner could overload this one

I can see a lot of positives with this camper. Kitchen storage is awesome. I don't have an opinion about the round sink because I haven't used one. The bath storage is nice. A tote for extra TP by the toilet, but it looks like a small trash can would be nice, too. Pocket doors are a welcome touch. Twin beds would be great with storage moved between them. But that would impact the under storage, wouldn't it? I would like to see a little more nightstand top, especially helpful for those who need cpap machines. Underbed storage is well appointed. I can see maybe taking a cube or 2 out for shoe storage. I like the storage at the bedside under the hanging closet, too. One thing I wish Forest River would bring back is the cooker hooker mounted in the side (like our 2015 rockwood 2109s) instead of under the camper. Josh, I appreciate the honest reviews you do. Pointing out the weight difference between the platinum and the reg siding is important information, thank you. Keep up the great work ❤.

Awesome TT. Love the private bedroom, what are the chances of twin beds like you suggested, and/or a reclining couch instead of the booth dinette? Great outdoor storage too! Think an SUV w/a 5000 towing max could tow it safely? Thanks Josh

Love this one! Is it crazy to want a Murphy bed so the bedroom - with all those gorgeous windows - could double as a living room or lounge space?
@JoshtheRVNerd7 ай бұрын
I could see a murphy.. ember opened my eyes to the benefit of a private murphy for sure
@revy44914 ай бұрын
If this dining table could telescope up a bit it could also double as additional kitchen counter space! Such a cool layout

What a cool little camper! Is that a commode curtain? Lots a windows and drawers too.

yeah commode curtain so you can do what you have to do without totally cutting off the camper

Stretched out just a bit longer and dual axles, twin bed option and accordion door for the shower compartment would be on my wish list. Having a gas cook top right next to the dinette seating is really dangerous in the event of grease splatters, boilovers or teens flipping their hair by the flame! I would swap locations of the sink and range top.
