Having issues with both a/c units. In order to have the temperature 70, you have to set the thermostat on 60-62. The cooling sensors are in the cooling unit itself. Can not run fan auto because of the short cycles.GD advise the fan must run continuously on low or high, not auto.Several other issues that my dealer is trying to fix, with out any help whatsoever from GD.My dealership is definitely working with us on all the issues. This is our first GD, and it will be our last GD. We bought it and didn’t do our homework. The a/c has been a problem since 2021 and GD doesn’t seem to care. These over priced, over rated, and poorly designed and workmanship are nothing but a piece of junk. This company is going down hill fast. Now the issues with the frames is a dangerous sad situation that’s GD is trying to shuff under the rug. SHAME ON YOU GRAND DESIGN!!!! Show less

Grand Design has built a quality product. The Imagine 2670MK is extremely comfortable for shorter or longer stays. We have added convenience items like a 2nd AC in the bedroom. Tankless water heater for continuous hot water. An 18” apartment size dishwasher built into the island. Pantry pullouts top and bottom. 2nd TV in the bedroom. This RV has had light use. We have just decided at our age not to RV anymore. Show less

For a couples RV this is the perfect RV to travel the US in. Tows easy, and the artic package is great to heat or cool this RV fast. When camping in the coach is so well insulated that you won't hear neighbors talking outside. Used mostly in the Florida heat and have no issue in cooling down the rv fast, or keeping a comfortable temp 24/7. No need in having a heavy duty truck to pull this coach pulls easy with a 4.0L Ford Ranger with no issue. Braking system on this RV is great for stopping Show less

First only towed camper home after inspecting roof wrong sealant used and gaps. Plywood under roofing dislodged covering loose and rippled.Roof replaced bubbles all over and loose covering.Cut on flooring after installation. Storage above sink so narrow can hardly store anything.2x2s in storage underneath full of huge knots weakening integrity if copied in walls not good.I researched for 6 months before buying fair reviews mostly water leaks which I had one on outside shower connection. On a plus I really like layout. DON'T like the on demand water heater wastes to much water and if slide out is in can't walk through warranting two doors limiting use on road but tolerable.

They'll make you as the consumer, jump through hoops to fix the problems with their units. Calling any idea they have "suggestions" so they can weasel out of coverage of anything done to your unit per their "suggestions" Even if you show them proof of the issues (video, written documentation, multiple witnesses, etc.) and show that the parts they've installed are out of specification - they'll assume no liability leaving you with the bills and an unsafe expensive camper because they choose not to fix it. They'll try to bully you into submission when you stand up to them as well, I've found and anytime they have information that hurts their case further they will call you rather than continue in email correspondence so they can try to lose the paper trails. They'll also tell you that people with 30+ years' experience don't supersede their techs who claim nothing is wrong when they've proven time and time again their products are failing. They'll also blame you - your experience, tow vehicles, hitch(es), everything they can to push blame from their units. In my case the trailers axles were installed 5" out of spec in terms of front to rear positioning, and also have a 1/2" difference between a front & rear hanger diagonally causing sway, bounce, tracking issues, movement etc. in the trailer. I've learned since that I'm not the only owner experiencing this issue and not many have found solutions that work. Those who have, I've tried with no difference made in my particular unit. Now I'm told it's my responsibility to pay a 3rd party out of pocket to prove (again) that there's still an issue. Then, once I do; it must be reviewed by their team before they deem it something they need to fix under their "warranty". I have since found cracks in the trailers frame and gaps / drops throughout the flooring inside. I have filed a report with the NHTSA at this time providing every detail, email, invoice, photo, video proof, and written statement. Show less

Just wanted to drop a few lines about my 2020 Grand Design Transcend 29TBS. This trailer is the real deal when it comes to hitting the road. First off, the sleeping situation is awesome. There's a queen bed that's super comfy for the grown-ups, and the kids have their own bunk space. It's like they've got their own little den, which means they're out of our hair at bedtime. Win-win! The kitchen is a dream. Cooking in this thing is a piece of cake. Whether you're whipping up breakfast inside or grilling burgers outside, you've got everything you need. Plus, cleaning up is no sweat, so more time to chill. You know how you pack for a trip and wonder where to put all your stuff? Well, this trailer has storage for days. I mean, you can bring along all your gear and still have room to walk around. It's pretty sweet. I've had a couple of trailers before, but this one feels like it's built to last. Everything's put together really well, and it just feels sturdy, you know? Had a small issue with the outdoor spray port once, and the folks at Grand Design were on it like white on rice. Seriously, their customer service is top-notch. It's really big at 36 feet, but it tows easy even with a half ton truck or some large suvs. So, yeah, if you're looking for a travel trailer that's like a home away from home, this is it. The Grand Design Transcend 29TBS is where it's at. It's got everything you need for some epic road trips with the people you love Show less

The Imagine 2600RB is an excellent travel trailer, especially for someone relatively new to the RV lifestyle. It is big enough for comfortable camping/living yet easy to tow and maneuver on the road and in campsites. The heating/air conditioner system works very, even during an intense summer heat wave in Arizona. The master bedroom is roomy and cozy and has storage under the bed. The living area sofa folds out into a bed and the dinette can also be converted to a bed. There is plenty of interior storage space. The kitchen is compact and functional. The tankless hot water heater provides near-instant hot water. The pass-through storage is large enough to hold trailer accessories, camping equipment and other gear. The 2600RB uses two gray water tanks and one black water tank. Show less

I really like the floor plan layout of the unit. The wife loves the cabinets and the pantry. She also likes the wardrobe closet in the bedroom that is the entire width of the trailer. It has a clothes bar and shelves for even more storage. I’m over 6 feet tall and I don’t feel cramped in here, even in the shower. I like that the head of the bed is located in the slide out and runs across the width of the trailer instead of the length, like most trailer’s beds. It even has room at the foot of the bed for a dresser and room to get dressed in front of it, instead of being cramped. The kitchen sink is located against the back of the trailer which gives ample space for kitchen duties and lots of cabinet space for dishes. I also like storage area lights that can be switched to motion detection, which is pretty handy when your hands are full. The light above the entry door can also be switched to motion, which is nice at night, so you never have to enter a dark trailer. One of the things I don’t like is that the kitchen floor squeaks a lot, even when completely level. The bathroom sink could also stand to be a little bit larger and deeper. I’ve only owned the unit for 4 months but I like it quite a bit so far. Show less

We love our 297! It is extremely comfortable and spacious, from the multitude of large windows with the heated, massage recliners in the livingroom to the queen size traditional mattress in the bedroom. On cold mornings it is wonderful to make a cup of coffee or tea and sit in front of the fireplace as you plan out our day. Of course, if you prefer, you can just turn up the heat to feel warm and toasty throughout the unit. The kitchen has everything you need! Plenty of counterspace with a large sink with gooseneck faucet and sprayer is adequate for anything you want to wash or prep. We travel for weeks at a time and have adequate space in the refrigerator, freezer and cabinets for all of our meals. The indoor stove/oven and the outdoor propane stove are very convenient. The microwave/convection oven is fabulous for preparing quick meals. There are also a lot of electric outlets for any convenience appliances you use. The wood dining table and 4 separate chairs are very comfortable and can be used in the living room or outside when you have a lot of guests to seat. Both the table and two of the chairs have smaller spaces for storage. The bathroom is spacious and there is plenty of storage for towels, personal products and cleaners. The glass shower doors are easy to clean and make the space feel open. Sitting outside surrounded by nature under the awning watching sports or movies on the TV, or listening to music from the outdoor speakers with drinks in the small refrigerator just a couple feet away is incredibly relaxing. The basement passthrough holds a lot of equipment and is easy to access. Show less
