*Turns out it does have hanging closets - the hanging rack is just WELL hidden up there!!* 🤦🏻‍♂️ I never claimed to get it all right!

[@JandAReview1]

Sofa and a theater seat would absolutely make this one shine. Thanks josh.

[@JoshtheRVNerd]

Totally do-able! I have footage of one coming like that. TOTALLY transformed the layout to me

[@eg513]

True quality

[@JoshtheRVNerd]

They have no special suspension. Not made with adverse conditions in mind

[@Mike-zu2ob]

I have this camper. It heats well down to the high20s. But anything over 92 it struggles to cool. The unit that comes mounted does well if you close off the bathroom and bedroom but then when you're ready to go to bed you have to sweat until you cool off to sleep.

[@JoshtheRVNerd]

Love the input from real owners. TY so much. May I ask what area of the country you're in? I'm wondering how regional humidity may be playing into this

[@waynekern8471]

😢 You do love me Uncle Josh! Thanks for doing this one. We bought the '22 model in July of '21 and love it! Don't like the set up in this one. We have the 3 recliner theatre sofa (they call it a dinette) in the slide and a trifold sofa across the back which is how I see most of them now. We did not want a dinette, not fluffy friendly & even though you get a table you can use we just bought two tray tables and it works fine. Also, dinettes create terrible entertainment center situations but the swing out tv works great for the seats along the back. Love the bathroom & if you don't want someone staring while you grunt and wipe shut the door just like you do in any other bathroom! 😅 Love the 12 volt fridge. Turn it on after I hook up & by the time I get there it's cold. '22 model has no hanging on either side of bed but does have space for about 10 items in closet that backs up to the shower. Polo shirts, t shirts, shorts, undies, socks, a hoody and rain jacket. I'm camping, not going to a formal, do not really need hanging space.😃 Love this camper and it's layout. Appreciate you doing this video. Can stop pestering you now! 😁

[@JoshtheRVNerd]

Ty for the feedback! That’s not called a dinette btw. Dinette is the benches with a table. That’s standard and you have the optional theater recliner

[@waynekern8471]

@@JoshtheRVNerd What we have in the slide is a 3 seat reclining sofa instead of the dinette like the model you were in and GD does or did anyway, refer to that as a theatre dinette. Thank you again for doing this model. Appreciate hearing your take on our choice.

[@CatrachaCaracola]

Thanks Josh, awesome

[@JoshtheRVNerd]

Glad you liked it!

[@jefflass699]

I see this has a theater seat at the back instead of a theater seat replacing the dinette. Is the tri-fold sofa still available for along the back wall, and is the theater seat still available as a dinette replacement? That’s the layout I’d want. Lounging for me and the Mrs., then a sleeping space for the older kids if they happen to tag along.

[@JoshtheRVNerd]

Apologies I am not where I can double check and cannot recall from memory. The team at www.bishs.com/contact-us could dive into that for you

[@jdice6868]

Behind the fridge seems like a great spot for a rechargeable light vac (especially with a telescoping handle) or a pocket with some hooks for umbrellas and a couple rain jackets We never think about rain gear until dark grumbling clouds roll in. It would be great to go, wait, "I know where our rain gear is! It has it's own oddly shaped 3" wide, 3' long 3' deep spot behind the fridge."" .

[@JoshtheRVNerd]

That's a great idea!

[@justorganizemylife]

I love the shelves in the bedroom closets. Makes more sense to me:)

[@JoshtheRVNerd]

TY!

[@justorganizemylife]

Welcome! Also, I think the plaid on the dinette cushions softens the dark brown hue of the RV. Glad they lightened things up a bit for next year. Open storage above the bed...I thought the same as you, but we have that in our Springdale, and I've grown fond of the versatility and ease of access. Thank you Josh!

[@melissajohnson780]

Towel rods. Spread the towels out side to side so they dry better.

[@JoshtheRVNerd]

I agree. Ty

[@CF542]

Very similar to my 23LDE in layout but this model is going backwards in a few areas. There is no cubby on each side of the bed which I personally love. Carpet in slide is big negative and so is the road mode cutoff. Still, it's a Grand Design and that means quality.

[@JoshtheRVNerd]

[@NancyLiedel]

Stop saying you're fat. Other than that, your videos are so honest.

[@JoshtheRVNerd]

Lol I just have a very self deprecating sense of humor

[@DianaWilson]

I have the 2022 version of this. The thing I like about mine is the theater seating / sofa is directly across from the TV. The back end has a jackknife sofa. I think that U dinette would have been better put in the back end and sticking with the theater seat across from the TV. I have been in my RV full-time since I purchased it and have not seen anything that I love more. ❤ And yes I am living in Texas in this full time. It is not hard to keep cool for the most part, but I did get a cover to shade the black end where the bedroom is. When it got up over 100°, that room got kind of hot. I also wish they would have put a heat duct running into the storage compartment. During the below freezing weather the cold coming up through the storage bay could be felt all the way through the mattress on the bed.

[@JoshtheRVNerd]

Love owner feedback. Ty so much

[@Jayhawk226]

Not a bad layout, i know it has to be, but i don't like the furnace and water heater on the camp side. Id' get the theater seat swaption in the slide.

[@didibolter9362]

While sitting at the u dinette, it would have been great to have a window to look outside through.

We have a 2022 265BH, VERY similar to this one. We love it, great family camper

[@JoshtheRVNerd]

Yep! Just no bunks in this one!

[@shawnhabrial7279]

In my opinion this is a great value trailer. For the space behind the fridge, I’d just move the fridge back. Making the trailer feel bigger and more access during travel. But I’m not the tall person that would smack his head going to the fridge in the slide.

[@JoshtheRVNerd]

[@azzkikin1]

Depending on the room, how about a hanging closet behind the fridge. Is there a travel trailer that allows for a motorcycle carrier to be mounted on the back? I like small toy boxes, but hate the tongue weight being the axles set back to hold the garage weight.

[@JoshtheRVNerd]

Trailers are not made from factories for motorcycle carriers

I have been following you for awhile now . I needed my grand design imagine’s roof repaired due to heavy snow and bish in salt lake was the only place that could handle it . They did a great job. After watching your brand go play and I knew your warning that you get what you see. Due to disabilities my wife and I need recliners. I don’t need a couch that makes into a bed. Jayco, who makes these really need to consider options . Recliners are very popular but I had to walk from the deal. I have mentioned other issues when you did the introduction to the new brand, but if a customer wants to order one with options the should be able to. I guess time will tell

[@sixtyonescenic6121]

Can they do the mo ride steps on these?

[@JoshtheRVNerd]

We can apply them at the store typically

[@gaemlinsidoharthi]

Maybe just set the refrigerator further back in the slide? Is that possible or is there a weight distribution consideration?

[@JoshtheRVNerd]

I think they didn’t want people to honk their heads by sliding it back.. just a thought

[@gaemlinsidoharthi]

Like the brown decor. Carpet, maybe not.

[@sitchad]

A lighter interior would be nice. The carpet, well heck our 2022 Newmar Ventana has carpet in the slides so to me not a big deal. I would want hanging space on either side of the bed and the dual doors are perfect. You know one thing I would like to see is brighter lighter exterior colors. Add some lights blues or silvers and white.

[@stevez340]

Love the fact that you can option out that neck wrecker dinette for some comfortable theater seating directly across from the entertainment center👍and yes, upgrading a cheap Dollar Store 4” fart fan is definitely possible but no one should ever have to😩

[@ShawnPatterson402]

very nice trailer. I am more than okay with the fold up steps. I am a little concerned however about a 12v fridge with only 165w of solar. Off grid camping will be a challenge unless you want to drag a generator around... This rig with a good old two way fridge would suit me just fine though. Decor is bland maybe, but I kind of like it nonetheless. take care.

[@JoshtheRVNerd]

Yeah I see super conflicting reports on whether or not that solar is enough to hold up and I think the differentiating factor is regional sun coverage Prepped for a portable panel if you'd like to add to it btw. Might be something to stress test in the driveway, then see if you need to expand

[@RoadDogMedia]

We added a second solar panel and 400AH of lithium batteries. I've never had the battery get below 90 percent, although this is in the summer. The 12v fridge is remarkably good at using power.

[@ShawnPatterson402]

@@RoadDogMedia yes that sounds like a great set up. 400ah of Lithium lasts a long time, and recharges quickly. With a couple of panels, it sounds like you are very well set up. safe travels and happy camping....

[@JoshtheRVNerd]

Thanks?

[@bryanterry415]

Liking these units with the split bath.

[@MikeStJohn-du5ue]

First off, move the theater seat to the dinning location and put a free standing table and chairs whre the seat was. If room is a problem extend the back a few feet. No, put access behind the frig from outside. in fact how about using that location for a generator? Change the skylight in the shower to a xl fan. Great move with the real queen bed. I can live without hanging clothing area but it would be nice if instead of hooks put short rods for haning items. Thin book shelf suport. For me, I would like to up the propane to 30s and increase solar to 400 wts. Nice look on the exterior skin but give me some stone guard or spray liner on the front.

I like a tri-fold sofa where the theater seat is and the theater seat were the dinette is. Believe this one comes with a free floating table with that set up. No carpet for me would be worth the extra cost. Wish the sidewalls were 6'9" and stable steps in main entry door.

I wonder why the refrigerator is slid all the way forward with the dead space behind it... maybe because you would hit your head on the top of the slide trying to get into it? Otherwise slide the fridge all the way back and maybe you would have full travel access?

[@JoshtheRVNerd]

Yeah so you don’t bonk the nugget

[@pennylynch4471]

I like the layout on this. With the limited camp side windows, I wish the door window was clear - with a shade, of course. I like your idea of using the area behind the fridge. Depending on the size, I'd keep games and puzzles there. The furniture is dark, but probably hides the dirt better than a lighter color. There seems to be enough light regardless. Could you do a video comparing a stick and tin vs the ..not stick and tin? I've picked up little things here and there, but it would be nice to see a comparison.

Three things that I would change in this RV. First is the storage above the bed. It needs doors. The second thing is your idea about a small storage area behind the refrigerator. It's a great idea.

I really like this design, esp the fluffy friendly resting room. The only thing I find out of place is the large windows behind the theater seating. I like the large windows, but you don't get to enjoy them unless you're at the table or walking out of the restroom. Love the kitchen counter space and all the storage. Hanging storage not a concern since my clothes are too big and long to hang at 6'2 and fluffy. All this in half ton towable? Strong candidate for my 2nd 1st rv.

[@joycemaurer3588]

Is there a reason for the curve in the kitchen counter? Cuts back on cabinet space at the same time. Not a fan. And we talked in another video to swap the location of the dinette and the theater seats, if you take out the side tables at the back wouldn't there be room for the dinette? The door window is frosted? Don't like that. Your idea of shelves behind the fridge is great, would make for a nice library! Folding clothes for us, hanging just wastes space. I'll take an iron for that maybe one nice outfit if we decide to go somewhere nice while camping. Would be nice to have a window in the bedroom since not one in the door for good reason. But would want to see if someone's knocking at my door (get that song in your head). No big Bish's discount? Oh well. This is nice, but too long for us and too high. Sorry!

Makes the entry look open I think. Just an estimation

[@texillini1]

Nice camper. I prefer the look of the flat Azdell sides compared to the corrugated siding look, however this slimmer looking siding does have a better appearance I believe. But my question is…. Why is it that pretty much every manufacturer who produces these corrugated looking siding sides chooses darkish colors? They look sorta drab. Why not have lighter colors or choose a vinyl wrap with a cool colorful design?

Agree the carpet under table is a problem waiting to happen. At least one hanging closet, room behind the fridge should be used. Looks like a lack of windows, especially the bedroom. More solar should be an option.

Just one question. The cargo capacity is kinda low and we didn't get a look at the suspension so how structurally sound are these? I'll be doing a lot of boondocking and hitting the usual expansion joints at 60mph. Probably 4000 miles a year so have concerns about how well it's going to hold up? The price sounds great but it leads to the durability question.. Thanks 🍻

Love this trailer. The stabilizer jacks on an angle has to help with the wobbles. I would cut a cubby in the bedroom closets just above the drawer to put our cpaps in. The outlets are great but you would have to move a cpap to get into the drawer. Definitely love this one.

Great idea!

[@beenieweenie1986]

They badly need to make hanging closets on either side of the bed for this. Almost everyone I know hangs all their shirts and pants up and with that closet offering little it really needs to be on the sides of the bed. Otherwise this is a phenomenal camper

See pinned comment. Turns out they are and I’m dumb

I don't like booth dinettes. My husband and I are both over 6ft tall (no room for our legs). My husband is 6'4" so we need interior height. I don't like the dinette being directly across from the entertainment center. I'd prefer a fireplace for electric heating instead of depending solely on the furnace. I do like no floor vents (aka floor dirt & trash collectors). I don't like carpet under the dinette. The kitchen window should be over the range, so it could have a fireplace & storage instead of a window. I don't like Murphy beds. We have one & we want a separate bedroom like this trailer. We're older, about 70ish & need electric tongue jack & stabilizers. I wild like an outdoor shower to wash our dog. I like to hang as many of my clothes as possible so they won't be so wrinkled. I don't like my clothing taking up storage room.

Appreciate all the insights!

Bathroom needs a window. The shower is teeny.

I love this layout. It’s the only lighter couple’s camper I’ve come across that would let me and the wife lay down on a rainy day to Netflix and snooze.

[@didibolter9362]

Too bad that there is no window in the bathroom.

[@backcountryboondockers]

My wife wants one of these bad. I don't like the black on the outside. Will get hot in the sun

[@pc9429]

I fart in the kitchen as well so it is still a fart fan despite its location

Wishing the bedside wardrobes we're not in your face.

[@robertpulliam9973]

Dark colors are a turn off, prefer lighter colors

[@5192mark]

They need to stop putting the bathroom between the bedroom and kitchen. They can put in in a slide out when you don't have to go though the bathroom to get into the bedroom. Why is the furniture so cheaply made from the cabinets the couches and dining room etc.

[@craigwilliams1073]

Yes, with more solar panels! This would be perfect. I missed if it had heated tanks?

[@jjsantos3292]

I don't believe Transced models come with heated tanks.

[@JoshtheRVNerd]

Belly is enclosed and heated but does not include tank heating pads

[@tbdrummer67]

Meh. Looks like pretty much every other camper in that size range. Rear entertainment with the TV mounted in the kitchen; kitchen so small Barbie wouldn't have enough room; and an unnecessary door in the bedroom. Doesn't anyone in design have an original idea?

[@JoshtheRVNerd]

For what it's worth this kinda is one of the originals that spawned all the things that look so similar to this

[@TacoTruck17]

This is the one I really like! I have a 1/2 ton 4x4 Sierra that's made for trailering.

[@JoshtheRVNerd]

Sounds like a good pairing 😊

[@paulhiebert1887]

I like the general layout and features but I couldn't stand up in it, so it's not for me.

[@JoshtheRVNerd]
