I appreciate the ample amount of storage options and the floor space. Lightweight and towing are a plus. It is a great unit for single or couples. I. Disappointed in the quality of some construction and trim issues. Several water fittings were faulty from the manufacturer and we're missed in inspection from the dealer. I had a significant flood from leaky fittings on my first outing that resulted in a flood of the bathroom into the bedroom on first hookup. The bedroom door hinges were subpar and many of the door latches including cabinets and screen door required shims and adjustments. Show less

We fell in love with the floor plan of this rig. It pulls easy with my half ton Dodge and is attractive. We bought if Feb of ‘21. Took our first road trip in Feb and had many issues. Recliner broke, bathroom leaked, door came off, plugs did not work in living room, heaters was unhooked from duct, hot water heater wired backwards and fuses kept tripping. Dropped at dealer and repairs were made but took over a month. Next trip was in March. This time the electric jack quit working, more fuses were tripping under sink and bathroom again sprung a leak. Took to dealer and again were without it until May. Next trip is in progress June 15th. Waters is pouring from underneath. Cannot use showers, toilet, etc. We are stuck 7 hours from home. Here we go again. A very poor construction. Beware. Show less

My wife and I were very excited to finally get the travel trailer we had waited six months for. We love the floor plan, the easy towing, outside kitchen, theatre seats, etc. Overall it seemed to be a bargain at the price we settled for. That’s the last of the positive reviews. As we took our first trip in February we were to learn this trailer was very poorly and quickly manufactured. First were the inside lights that went out and the continuing blowing of fuses. Next was the leaking toilet in two places. The heat/air ducts were never connected at all so the heat came out under the sink making it very hot. None in the bedroom or bathroom. My recliner busted on my first pull however my wife’s kept working. The water heater malfunctioned and the motion lights blinked off and on all night. The refrigerator was so noisy we cut it off but not before it had built up a wall of ice in the back. These things are annoying but the most annoying was the $495 dealer prep charge the distributor charged to get it ready. After two weeks I was called back to say my trailer was ready only to find the bathroom lights still don’t work, the recliner is still broken and the motion lights still continue to blink. This after they told me they had found multiple screws and staples thrust the walls into the wiring system. I’ve owned this trailer for 30 days today and have had it at home for 9. Where I go from here is anyone’s guess but my gut tells me I’ve been had. Show less

For a small travel trailer the floorplan looks very roomy and is perfect for the two of us. Unfortunately there were some workmanship problems from the very beginning. First the circuit breaker for the 30 amp service of the whole coach and the 20 amp service for the air conditioner were reversed. The front cap on the travel trailer was not secure to the bottom of the frame. The Fossett on the kitchen sink although very pretty was not functional when you turn the water on it’s splashed all over the counter and the floor and there was no pressure. The shower stall walls were not even around the shower pan so one side of the shower Water splashed up over the pan underneath on the floor. The water diverter for the slide did not prevent water from getting inside the coach While we were driving in a rainstorm. As you can see there were problems but we took them to a local dealer to have warranty work done to correct everything. As I said at the beginning of this review The floorplan is exceptional but the quality control sucks. Show less

This is a great travel trailer. Nice floor plan layout. I would have given a 5 star rating if mine had the rear bunk instead of just the bottom bed. Lots of space to move around. Tows great. Lots of storage areas around the travel trailer. Show less
