We used to have a really huge one that *I* liked well enough to deal with storage, but it was so large it was a pain to manage and it was hard to shake out if it got at all mucky, and just the sight of it constantly in the way in storage frustrated my husband. I had an old much-smaller one from ALDI that rolls up into a manageable tube, we agreed that was a better format, and I lucked out and they just got them in for this year so I have a second one and we can arrange them as needed. The ALDI one has a bit tighter weave too, which I think is part of what made the other one so unwieldy.
I don’t use my patio rug all the time, especially if parked next to grass but do use it when parked on large gravel site. It keeps my dogs clean especially when at dog shows.
I agree. I bought way too many items for our trailer. So this weekend we are having a yard sale. I don’t have a patio rug, but I do have a large piece of Astroturfing. Easy to clean and lightweight.
For just the two of us, I use two ice trays and an oblong ice bin in my freezer. We never run out of ice and if the system fails, it's due to one of us not filling up the tray as opposed to a mechanical issue.
I live in my camper full time ( plan on buying land & building a house in 3-5yrs). So I agree with the less stuff, but man sometimes i don’t get to town for a month or so. So having those extra weeks worth of food/ clothes helps a lot. Just discovered this channel! Subbed & probably binge watching
Ya know. I really questioned the lights on the walls mod when you shared it. LEDs are just too bright, even if the warm light is chosen. Actually, I’d love to put a dimmer on my overheads, but I can’t cuz they’re connected to the app that allows remote on/off. The idea of replacing wall lights with USB plugs is brilliant. I have a sand-free rug that folds and stores into a compact bag and I’ll be keeping it for sure. There’s nothing worse that sand, mud and grass tracking and by me and the pups, and this rug really helps. Not only that, but I sometimes step in and out barefoot. Having the rug in place means my feet don’t hurt when I step down on gravel.
We unpacked our RV when it was going in for a lengthy service. When we re-packed it we left a lot of things out and reorganized things and Wow! We don’t miss the things we left out. Like 6 coffee cups for the 2 of us. Plus everything has its place! So much less clutter.
I'll go you one better on the Blackstone. I bought a cast iron grill from Big Lots for about $10 that I use on my ancient Coleman 2 burner camping stove. Lodge has one for about $40-50 that is about the same if you like Lodge. Yes it get used outside, but I wouldn't fry stuff in the RV due to the grease and smell. It's small, it has 2 sides and it's about 10% or less of the space that any Blackstone takes. It works for me, it might work for you. Keep the good stuff coming.
Some really good suggestions, Charity, I absolutely agree! We bought a Blackstone grill, we had it with us just ONCE! The thing takes up too much space and is VERY heavy. I replaced it with one of the small, lightweight portable Weber grills. They are easy to setup, store and clean. You learn quickly what works and what is just excessive!
We be love our rug and the gravity chair (not so good back). We travel with the rug in the back of the truck & tied down. The independent ice maker is a must as we already have ice in our drinks. We totally agreed with everything else!! Thanks for the tips!! Happy and safe travels!! 😊
We use an Iwatani butane single burner portable stove for cooking. Rarely do we cook inside the coach. I do have a new portable propane BBQ that is still in the box but left at home!
100% agree with the smaller blackstone. That's what we use too! The rug, I find, keeps the little gravel out that can destroy the vinyl flooring. Just have to figure out where to put the tailgate pit boss smoker now! Love your videos! Well done with good info!
Our kind neighbors lent us their travel Burke. It does a good job, but no better than my husband's brita filter pitcher which costs about one tenth the price of the Burkey and all the water can drain out of the pitcher. On travel days we put the pitcher in the sink. It works well for us.
Thank your for all your good advice on items to rethink hauling around in an RV. As a 40 year RV owner, there truly are “seasons” and “reasons” to pack more or less items - based on needs and locations we travel too. As empty nesters now and fewer trips with the grandkids in tow, we have learned to go off a check list of must haves based on group size going, location, and seasonal needs. Space is always at a premium, and you have helped me re-evaluate how we can continue our great adventures in style with downsizing a few items we find we haul for those “just in case moments” that are no longer a priority or even needed. It’s about the outdoor adventure - not necessarily having the latest RV gadget for every single task. Happy trails to all!
Wow! How true is your advice!! I have an awful habit of accumulating so many trinkets. Whether it be kitchen gadgets, clothes for ( occasions) lol. I am so guilty of this! Thanks for sharing this 😊… my poor husband has been telling me this for years 😂. …. Lisa ( The Wingman’s wife)
We traded our dual burner blackstone for a single burner version and it’s much better! Can’t do without my rug in fact we bought another one, Florida is very sandy!

Patio rug agree we don‘t need., Blackstone, we need it all the time. We cook inside too, pending weather, ice maker - we don‘t need, we are from Europe soooo, not necessary for us 😄. Great video, thanks.
Some good stuff. We have a small BlackStone and always make it work. Love the idea of the USB’s…have to see if they have USB C ones…these are the future.
Thanks for all of the helpful info. We just bought a Momentum 5th wheel and are selling our house to travel to all of the motorcycle shows and rallies. Your channel has been so incredibly helpful. Hope to meet y’all someday on the road.
We have a table top Blackstone with a side burner and use it so much more than the full-size one we had. We use it on a 4’ plastic table with adjustable height we got from Costco. We have also purchased the GE nugget ice maker, Ninja 10 in 1 oven, Instant Pots and induction double cooktop are our go to appliances. I am very guilty of having way too many pots and pans. We have found that we do want to upgrade our RV (we’ve been full time for 20 months in a travel trailer and ready for a fifth wheel) and I expect to possibly lose some of the storage this unit has. I’m ready for a stackable washer/dryer and to ditch this combo unit we have. We will upgrade back to an instant hot water heater again and plan on taking this Brooklyn mattress with us!
I like the ice maker idea. I keep hearing that you should not drink from the tap, because it's so hard to keep the water potable, so it makes sense to use a filter, then make ice on the counter. Probably the best unitasker.
Good morning Guys, totally agree on the the ice maker and the rug. With a freezer that hangs around -10 most of the time we just use flexible ice trays and the ice tray that went with the old ice maker. When we had our Norcold upgraded by JC Refrigeration I just had them remove the ice maker, and boxed it up just in case a new owner would want it. We also carry a rug but never use it, seems most of the campgrounds don't want you using them because they kill the grass. I wondered about those puck lights when you showed them in one of your videos.
Funny, just watched your 40 "Must Have" gadget list where you raved over the button lights. I get it: people change their minds and do so fairly often. Gets me thinking about much of the things I see on your videos........
We always try to do “update” videos every so often to share what’s working and what’s not. While we changed or mind on the button lighting for a better option, others might find it helpful. Our videos are always to share info to spark ideas. Thanks for watching
Yep, never used nor will ever use the fridge ice maker..bought a portable ice maker which I am using in our house right now and we take in Monty on trips. (Monty is the name of our motorhome). I always use distilled water because ours is sooo hard and makes for nicer cubes. Been doing this for about 3 years.
Abord R/V Just The Two of Us. That rug is handy when the site is muddy. We try and carry clothes to last a week and use a multi-use canvas bag. Zero gravity chairs go in the back of the pickup. If we do three trips and it doesn't get used. It comes off the rig.
Thought getting a propane flattop griddle was a nice gift for my husband. He liked cooking on it, but hates to clean it, which can be a pain. He doesn't use it now.
For those with the countertop ice maker, how do you clean it? We have one and are about to replace it because it's getting gross and difficult to clean with the design.
as a coffee lover and connoisseur i would still keep both a french press and drip coffee maker mainly because of flavor profile differances drip coffee makers are great for on the go and when your parked but there is nothing like the flavor profile from a french press
Lots of helpful hints but as an avid RV'er for the past 22 years I totally disagree about the outdoor rug. Last year we moved into an apt in Alaska while we r waiting to build our lil cabin in the woods, but before that we lived in our 34ft RV for almost 2 years and had used our rug everywhere we went and we still use our rug now when RV camping. The rug helps keep the dirt, sand & debri out of our rig. We also use a 2x3 rough rug at our doorway over the top of our large rug. Besides, our rug looks great and welcoming and makes us feel at home. Note: we usually use tent spikes to keep the large rug in place and then put lil sandbags over the spike ends. And we use our lil button lights everywhere too, love how they give just enough light to use the restroom without waking up everyone in our RV. Just my opinion folks. Cheers
I don’t disagree with the blackstone and ice maker. Those ‘products’ take up a lot of space. But extra shoes and clothes are a must if you’re traveling across a wide region (like the Midwest in the Spring) when the temps can change from cold to hot.
the too many shoes will be one of my biggest challenges i have 12 pairs of shoes/heels right now while i live in my bricks and sticks im a shoe lover i do understand i will have to cut down when i move into the trailer with my partner this coming year
DO your children go to traditional school, homeschool, or online? what about social activities, extra curricula activities, sports? Are you out on the RV half the week, weeks or months at a time. I'm trying to determine whether this would suit our schedules.
I agreed with most of this, except the LED part. I'm thinking you perhaps didn't apply the idea properly...? We bought puck lights off Amazon that are magnetic, so all you have to do is put up a little circle of metal (that comes with it) if you want to have the light go somewhere specifically, or just stick it to the fridge, etc. We got the warm light version, and what I love about them is how you can turn them up or down simply by holding your finger down on the light (a long tap, basically). So we can make them bright for reading, etc, or dim for a night light, or anywhere in between. But what I think makes them work especially well for us is instead of putting them on a wall, we've put them on the bottom side of cupboards, so the light shines downward instead of into our eyeballs. The magnet is strong enough that they stay in place even on travel days. They are rechargeable using a USB cord. We bought a half-dozen of them and have used them for years. Big, big fans. Small, incredibly portable, warm light, stupidly easy to use. I'd put in a link to them on Amazon but then YT will mark this comment as spam, so just do a search for them on there. Thanks for the awesome videos!!
staple foods my partner and i carry about 2 weeks worth and one thing many dont think about is dollar tree for staple goods there smaller cans/packages of pastas and such so take up less space and perfect for two people.
You never know what’s going to happen. Going to the store may not be a possibility. I am always stocked for any emergency. Can cook in camper with electricity or gas, out side as well with either or on a fire.
We love our countertop ice maker. It makes ice in approximately 9 minutes and has a handle so we can move it easily. If we’re traveling we don’t use our patio rug but if we’re spending time in a place that doesn’t have a concrete pad we’ll use it.
I bought the button lights on your recommendation from your other video. Please update that video to remove the recommendation, so others don't waste their money too.
Wait ! There's weight. The more you have, and even the 1 of a kind, always try to use the those that weigh the least. Because you are dragging it around and cost you fuel to move it.
You talk about shoes….two years ago, we were on a level two evacuation alert. I called my daughter, and asked her if the things a the house, do you want us save for you. She says “Grab my thee totes of Shoes!” WHAT? No papers, or important items? No Just get the shoes! Thy are worth more than anything I have. 😖😖😖 His actually happened, in 2020.
We disagree with the comments about the outdoor rug. We travel with three dogs and an outdoor rug goes a long way to keeping dirt outside.
Same
They glamp on concrete
I’m full time in my RV (Workamper) so I feel the outdoor rug (mine is brown astroturf!) makes my lot more “homey”!❤️👍🏻
We used to have a really huge one that *I* liked well enough to deal with storage, but it was so large it was a pain to manage and it was hard to shake out if it got at all mucky, and just the sight of it constantly in the way in storage frustrated my husband.

The ALDI one has a bit tighter weave too, which I think is part of what made the other one so unwieldy.
So many campgrounds don't allow them. The one we are at I wish it has one.
I don’t use my patio rug all the time, especially if parked next to grass but do use it when parked on large gravel site. It keeps my dogs clean especially when at dog shows.
Can’t do without a patio rug in sandy Michigan. Helps keep the sand out.
💯
Good point. At beach, it's helpful!
We use our patio rug. It keeps from taking dirt into the rv. Serves a good purpose.

Would you recommend swapping out the big dog for a Chihuahua? ;)
😅
Lol, we do love our big dog - but he does take up more space than a smaller dog would
Would you use a rug if you didn't camp on concrete? Curious. 😀
Probably not - at least not the larger ones. A smaller door mat maybe if needed to keep dirt out of the RV
Too many shoes?! I know who that is! :) I only OWN 4 pairs of shoes.
Charity if you want to get rid of the food you don't eat you have a solution in your RV Alaska!
He'd gladly take it! 😂
