- Hey everyone welcome back to another video! Today I am super excited were looking at a Travel Trailer that is Great for Fulltiming in.. This is the 2020 Highland Ridge Open Range 328BHS. This is a Bunk House with Bath and a half. Now I would never personally live in a Travel Trailer. But if I was fulltiming with kids then this 4 seasons travel trailer works great for what your trying to accomplish.

A someone who hasn't eaten at a kitchen / dining room table since the house was free of kids, I like the J Lounge WAY more than the couch and table-n-chairs combo.
Love the J lounge!!! I can see grandkids all cuddled in for movie night. Or me on one end and hubby on the other for a serious power nap. 😴
I found you guys a few months ago when we started thinking about getting an RV and wanted to do some homework. I really liked your energy and fun attitude and have been watching pretty much every day since. This is going to sound hokey, but in these crazy last several days, having the videos to look forward to and watch and seeing your cheerful faces is, I don't know, comforting. So thanks for doing these everyday and being so upbeat.
Also, am I the only one who noticed you had a different shirt on half way through? Anyway, God bless!
Gigi H. 😂we were waiting to see who noticed lol. We had to stop filming because Matt had a customer. Picked up the next day. You are very observant. Thanks for watching. I’m happy we can bring some joy during this crazy time. God bless!

Bless you Dear Soul! ✨ And I didn’t notice 😅🦋
Washer/Dryer hookup would be great.
I'm with Matt on the sofa. I like it as it is. (Sorry, Andrea.)
I LOVE this trailer! The bunk room for dog crates. Four places and a slide! The farmhouse sink. The huge sofa. All of it!
And no carpet would be better. Can always throw down washable area rugs.
Matt is right, I love the couch
I agree with Matt! Love the sofa!!
Love watching you guys!!
You 2 are so much fun to watch! No interest in a towable myself (especially a bunk house) BUT...some fun stuff to see here. Dislikes are very little storage outside, the "J" Lounge (dinette/theater seats, like Andrea said) & slide out on patio side dividing the door & the outside kitchen. Likes would be that awesome fridge (HUGE!), 1.5 bathrooms (SMART!) & Open Road horse logo (Boise State Bronco here!). I also like you 2 splitting the reviews & taking more time to openly discuss your likes/dislikes (just like my wife & I do). The videos are 25-30 minutes now and couldn't be happier about that. The 2-3 minute videos you see out there just suck. It's not worth my time. I look forward to the more in-depth (inside/outside/up top/underneath) information I get with these reviews. Thanks for your time/efforts you 2...
I love the jloung with 3 kids and two separate tables. It would be the perfect mini home
You talked about the shelf for CPAPs. FYI I’m a Respiratory Therapist, CPaPs placed higher than the person tend to have “rain out”. There is the potential for flooding of the sinuses due to the condensation dripping into your nose/face. Cpaps belong on the same level with the person or ever so slightly lower. (I’m a Respiratory Therapist)
3 things I love
1 outside kitchen
2 j sofa. Yes Matt I agree with you
3. The bathroom
Three things I dislike
1. No tv in bedroom
2 no washer and dryer hookup for full time
3. No power outlets on the extra counter. Could use a power tower
I have a fourth take out the little spice rack and put in a residential stove
I love the couch and the carpet in the bedroom as my feet get cold on our homes wood floors and wish we had carpet in certain places.
I agree
The 3 things I do not like: 1. no outlet in the hutch for a coffee maker, 2. outside kitchen door not "kid-size adult" friendly (put a button you would press to put the door down, similar to a SUV tailgate), 3. the awnings
The 3 I like: 1.the fridge, 2. everything about the outside kitchen, excluding the door, 3. king bed with nightstands on both sides
Hutch does have outlet on bottom of cabinet.
Love the J Lounge and the bunk room
I love the Jay lounge room for everyone
I like everything except no washer/ dryer space. I agree with Andrea about the carpet. You can use rugs if need be.
Also, I actually like the lounge sofa, you can remove the tables when not in use.
First!
Love you guys. Thanks for everything you do. Can’t wait to call when I buy my motor home.
Love that big sofa! And love your reviews 💕
LOVE THIS TRAILER! With Matt on the sofa too! It opens up the whole living area. LOVE that bak bunk room in fact That is the only kind of BH I like!
I don't like how there's no washer/dryer prep, not even for a combo unit. Can't full time without that.
Collin Parsons I thought I saw one in closet?? If not that’s crazy. It definitely needs one for that size
Collin Parsons yes, better a w/d than a half bath.
We have the 18" with everything inside, plus the fireplace. Ours came with the tv and grill outside, plus the 50" inside. We put a tv in the bunkhouse for our teen children and they put their xbox in there as well. My daughter loves bringing her friends to the beach for a girls weekend. We love using it and people also want to see the inside. They say it feels like a 5th wheel, I agree. It's a must buy!
I LOVE THE SOFA! You can eat outside, in the bunkhouse or plates on your lap! Lol!
Sorry Andrea, I’m with Matt on this one. I like the j lounge sofa.
Very well laid out floor plan! I agree with Andrea the carpet has to GO! No carpet. Fabulous kitchen and that couch /dining is amazing!
Impressed with this travel trailer. With all of the interior storage, a w/d prep kit would have been the cherry on top. Generator prep is a must for a TT of this caliber. IMO The stabilizers are nice, but for a unit this size, leveling jacks would have made this phenomenal. None of this is a complaint, but necessary for a true fulltime rig. Since you have your whole truck bed for additional storage, this unit is a peach indeed.
I like this trailer. To make it full time for me:
Cover the roof with solar
rip out the outdoor kitchen and replace it with 8 lithium batteries and solar controllers
remove the bunk and install a washer
remove the other bunk and install a desk
replace "J" lounge with a hide-a-bed sofa and a kitchen table (sorry Matt)
you are now at about $80,000
Buy a $75,000 truck to pull and stop it.
Might as well buy a motor home.
I just wish for the price there was a fireplace! Love the J Lounge, the outdoor kitchen is HUGE, and that there is an actual closet in the master bedroom! Oh and the little table/dinette in the bunk room!
Thanks Andrea for being so thorough.
Love the J Lounge!!! I do think you should rename the channel "Matt & Andrea's Rv Reviews "
I agree with Matt. If you have kids to fill the bunk house you need big lounge couch to sit together as a family. I have 6 kids and would need big couch.
You guys are the best! I love so much about this trailer. Likes: an actual separate bunk room, two bathrooms, oh that fridge! Dislikes: all that dark wood makes it seem dreary, stove position feels awkward, master bedroom looks cramped.
Keep it up, love the new channel. Stay safe!
Matt is right for SURE! The J lounge is one of my must haves!
Got to agree with Matt really like the sofa take one table out you got it made , and that out side kitchen love it keep rocking it guy's.
Beautiful camper. I don't know campers so I like everything. I guess $57000. Not a bad price if you call Matt
I have the Open Range 376FBH 5th wheel, and the floorplan has a lot of simularities. We have a queen bed in the rear, but the kitchens are almost identical, even the bureau slide out are the same.
Love the bath and and a half
Likes - Matt is right I love the sofa set up. Love the out door kitchen. Love the half bath. Disĺikes - the carpet in the bedroom. Not having a ladder to the one bunk. Rather have a window in back of the stove and want day time shades.
Matt is right this time. Large couch for the win.
OMG! I love this trailer. The chaise lounge chairs, that whole setup. The bunk room is prime office space once you get rid of the bunks. Wow. I think I want this one.
Love to sofa . Room for everyone us the dog .
Probably the best part of the RV .
I like the J-Lounge with two separate tables; I agree with Matt.
A skylight would eliminate the dark shadowiness of the trailer. I would buy it.
It was great talking to you today. This one is great. I love that you mentioned the winter stuff.
Dislike: the height of the outside kitchen because I’m 5’1 so even jumping I would be able to
Nothing I would change about this trailer. I’m with Matt on the jlounge. For full time you can get washer dryer combo units that don’t take a lot of space or buy portable washer and hang dry.
I LOVE the couch!
i so enjoyed watchng your videos guys , even if i have to do it from Australia ..
You and Andrea are the best !!
Affen QLD thanks so much for watching😀 stay safe
Dislikes: 1. Stove - no place to put utensils, spices as you cook without constantly turning around and taking your utensils across the floor causing splatters that could stain.. 2. Bedroom - can't walk around it. 3. No outside TV stock - don't really like TV location mixed with outdoor kitchen. LIKES: 1. Outdoor Kitchen ROCKS. 2. Kids/Visitor room - WOW - 1/2 bath, dinette, couch, two bunks, ability to create two more beds from couch and dinette. 3. Like Matte - Wife and I both love that huge J-Couch/lounge/dinette set up. Overall - there is so much we like here - and so much we don't. We are older - getting uncovered in the middle of the night and crawling down the length of the bed just to go to the bathroom does not sound fun. We would prefer a smaller master bed and able to walk around it. So close to the perfect trailer, and honestly, that back room would almost seal the deal for us, IF it were not for that master bedroom.
Love the marble design on back splash and tables, but would like it on island as well. I agree with Andrea, dislike the huge couch, prefer theater seating and perhaps a desk/work area in place of that. Also dislike any carpet whatsoever because we have fur babies. Love bath and half and residential fridge. Would even like the length of this RV. Would have to replace the bunks with something else. Maybe convert to wardrobe/storage space for full-timers with no kids.
Love the Refrigerator the bunk house and the door to the the children room also the outside kitchen
Love the dinette sofa, but did not see the TV angle to match the seatting.
I love love love this trailer!!!! The little back area with table and couch plus a half bath is AWESOME!!!!! and all the couch space with tables. So smart. This will be my next trailer for sure :)
1- Love the little table in the bunkroom
2- Love the couch in the bunkroom
3- Love the big jay lounge area instead of a table and couch!!!
1 2 3 I hate that I have another trailer and not this one!!! there is nothing that I don't like!
Great overview, thank you. Andrea’s portion of the presentation was excellent, too.
LOTS to like about this travel trailer. Loooong chaise lounge sofa, outside kitchen capability, outstanding interior storage, outstanding refrigerator and kitchen in general, back bedroom sleeping capacity, two air conditioners.
The ONLY two things I would’ve like to have seen (neither would be deal-breakers) are 1. the long sofa jackknifes into a bed; and 2. (as always) LIGHTER, BRIGHTER AND GLOSSIER (versus dull and drab) cabinetry.
Otherwise this unit is a WINNER at a very reasonable price point, ESPECIALLY if you buy from Matt!
Hi Matt & Andrea, thanks for review.
3 things I hate: frameless windows (poor ventilation), the hookups in the rear (what were they thinking?), and the lack of good storage in bunk room, not enough for 4...oh one more, not a fan of the tiny counter space next to the stove.
3 things I love: the J lounge especially for a large family ( I’m tired of bench seating, always so crowded), the outdoor kitchen (although the door sucks), the master bedroom storage...oh one more again the covers for the sink are awesome and useful.
Matt is right with the lounge!
Like the J. Sorry Andrea : / Great vid!!!
I love the couch. If you’re full time and a family of 5. You can fit everyone and have dinner together. Overall great design.
Nice layout but some manufacturers have higher weight ratings on their bunks and, more are putting the Auto-level on their trailers which to me, is a big selling point. I have a Cross roads 33SI and love the auto level system. Thanks for your reviews as it gives people things to look at and think about. Even after purchasing ours, I see things I wish were changed but are not, because you pointed out good and bad in others RV's. Keep up the good work, very educational as well as entertaining to watch
Oh my goodness, just love you guys. I thought when Matt sat on the master bath toilet he loved it so much he was going to do the rest of the video from there. Keep up the good work!
Not only can you climb up on the roof but you can skip with the best of them!! Blue shirt? Red shirt? Every star has to have a wardrobe change😊
My wife and I really like this model.
Having 4 kids, if we ever lived in one, this bunk house & couch big enough for the 6 of us would great:-).
Great video you two! I'm not going to do 3 likes/dislikes, but, for the first time ever, I'm not immediately turned off by the fact that it's a "Bunk House" trailer. I would, however, personally do away with the 2 top bunks, and the second bedroom/bunk area would become my office space. Not really a fan of that HUGE sofa. I would probably go for the dinette w/ smaller sofa.
I have 2018 328bhs with dinette and Thomas Payne theater seats and do like it better than u lounge. At 1st I thought I wanted u lounge,but dinette and theater is much better. I travel for work so me and wife are full time. Bunk room I put Splendid washer and dryer. Water and drain was easy to run as it is right there. It is a large tt,however if it could be in one's budget I recommend a 5th wheel. The wife and I really like the Riverstone 39fk. Pricey but well made. A true 4 season full time rv. Ya'll should review one. I want the body paint,don't care for the brown base model ext. and the luxury package with body paint also has a water manifold with shutoff for everything. Love the reviews,lol. Funny guy. Very much remind me of a buddy
I really love everything about this RV!! The price is great!! I would rather have a u shaped dinette instead of the sofa. Outside kitchen is awesome!! Great job you two!!!🌸🌸
Been watching all of y’alls rv reviews and this one is my favorite one love a kitchen with a Residential refrigerator and a stove with an oven outside kitchen is favorite every time, because some stuff you just don’t wanna be cooking inside especially if it’s something that has an odor like fish or another kind of seafood stinking up the camper
This is probably my favorite one yet but I would like it even more if had a washer and dryer hook up for sure
Awesome review Matt&Andrea.. my dislikes, Microwave, Stove those make this rv look old, the J-lounge gotta not with kids.. now if this wasn’t a bunk model then fine j-lounge is cool. Oh Matt them counter tops gotta go.. Andrea’s right, bed carpet gotta go.. everything else is fine..
I love the couch to guys because you can use it for eating etc.but then you can remove the tables and lay a pretty rug over the inserts and relax with the whole family and the dog and cat....lol
I'm with Matt. I will never buy an RV with a corner shower. That is almost just as important as 4P.
For full time it needs washer and dryer hook ups. Love the big couch and no carpet in living area.
psst psst CPAP needs to be lower than the person using it - otherwise you risk "rain" and that's when the humidity of the water chamber causes enough condensation you will wake up thinking your drowning.
Cool camper & I'm not a fan of the J Lounge either
Yeah I thought of that on most of the RV’s however this one did have mini nightstands for Cpap use.
My husband uses his without the moisture. Also if it was above instead of beside it could fall so it would be better on the nightstand anyway.
Agree with your original two dislikes. But would add. Needs a plug for a coffeemaker on the counter a cross from the island. All the outside kitchen needs is a strap to help the height challenged close to door. To be full time it does need a washer dryer. IMO.
I love J Lounge!! You win Matt! We never seem to eat at table anyway
I like the J-Lounge! Because it has versatile use.
Like the j lounge, frig, two bedrooms! Needs a washer/dryer
Good work, you two.
I don’t like the situation for the 50 amp cord. Seems all trailers just bundle up the cord and stuff it somewhere.
I don’t like the awnings and slide on the campsite side. The chef cooking at the outside kitchen would feel ostracized and left alone!
I don’t like the rear water valves and tv and electrical connections in the same space.
I do like the bunk room and half bath.
I do like the kitchen but not the back splash.
I do like the price for the unit. I think that if you were to upgrade the tires, change the shackles for higher quality ones and a good weight distribution bars you would have a great trailer.
Time for Matt to have his own reality TV show!
Nice full timer. Love the lounge Matt! 😂 in past reviews I have said I don't care for 5th wheels.. This is why.
I really like the kitchen except the oven ( personal preference), bathroom looks small although the low toilet is nice saves on stressing the sprinter.
I could live there permanently and price is great 👍👍👍
Wow what a beast. I’m thinking that should be a 5er. That’s a heavy TT.
I like the double dinette
I like the 1 piece cap
I like the half bath for the bunks
Dislike the outside kitchen, that’s just not my thing
Dislike it’s not a 3 axle, 2 is pushing the limit in my opinion.
Dislike the passenger slide. The second awning is going to hit a tree at a campground.
Definitely a family TT
Great floor plan. Like the J lounge and the kids' room very much. This looks like a great value though maybe too much; the interior appointments (cabinets & trim) look cheap.
Another entertaining video. I think this trailer is amazing! Definitely putting it on my list of possibilities.
CPAP machines with humidifiers need to be below pillow level not up near the ceiling. You want moisture draining back to the reservoir not not back into your face waking you up.
Love the J lounge. Great idea
Love the bunk room and outside kitchen they should atatch a strap to the outside kitchen door
i want this for my family
nice , but you will need a beast to pull this beast.the bunkhouse is nice and open and not closed in. love the jt strong arms are a plus for this. the sell price is good for this towable.the front storage is nice and big and the little storage is a plus. don't like the outdoor kitchen door so high. it has good bedroom storage. like the tv placement. don't like the j lounge.
I have the 18" model and it's very light weight. We pull it with 18" F150 EcoBoost V-6 and its more than enough.
We pull it with a diesel Excursion. Does well, but it does make it work sometimes, depending on the terrain.
i agree no carpet. i HATE the lack of a proper dining space. i dont want to eat on the sofa
I am not a fan of the booth/bed in the bunkhouse, the placement of the sink in the second bathroom (though I understand why it is placed like that), and I am not a fan of the jay lounge. The cabinets aren’t bad but I do prefer the farmhouse motif. Also, I wish they had a fireplace in the main area. They definitely have space for it. I love the kitchen, the storage space and the fact that they have an oven as well as a residential fridge. Also, the price is amazing.
Matt you win! I like the J Lounge.
I love the trailer but wish the sofa could be made in to a bed too. But I like how big the sofa is
Dislikes
1. have to agree with the carpet. I have pets and carpet may be a deal breaker for me (allergies)
2. shower in MB. Not all of us are as petite as Andrea
3. ?
Likes
1. 4 season
2. Bunk room set up
3. 1/2 bath and kitchen/living room (including the couch)
The L shape sofa is the way to go. I wish the couch in the kids bed room was also a bunk. Thats the only thing that broke the deal for us. I need to sleep 3 kids and a mother in law in that back bed room.
I love this travel trailer 🥰🥰
I gave the video a thumbs up when you said “prime pooping position”. I’ve also subscribed!!!!!
3 likes:
Bunk room would be awesome for family/friends
Legit outdoor kitchen
Amazing layout, great kitchen/lounge area, great value overall
3 dislikes:
I may have missed it, but it looks not to be solar-ready & no house batteries
Would like a pull for that outdoor kitchen gate, but an easy fix
Niggling, but the decor is bland, & I'm not wild about the stovetop backsplash, counters,etc.
Also, a range + a bigger convection microwave oven vice the setup you showed.
Love this trailer, but please don't let anyone buy one of these that owns a half ton anything. This trailer set to go camping will have a tongue weight around 1600lbs.... or more. Also, trying to dry camp will require a bunch of batteries and solar panels to keep your food from spoiling in that resi fridge. Did Open Range plumb the sink in the outdoor kitchen into a grey tank? Or does it still drain onto the ground? All in all, a great travel trailer. I love the bunkhouse.
missing a good fire place in the living room
