Most definitely the theater seating!
I like the coachman bed storage
Thanks Josh! You’ve spoiled me. I can hardly stand to watch any other camper reviews now because of the thorough & fun approach you take!
Well TY for the kind words and joining me today :)
Same feeling! I like how Josh is is honest, he knows his stuff and can point out things that may be easily overlooked. I like his fair reviews! Plus, he is just so silly and fun!
Same
Theater seats for sure😉
We like the theater seat arraignment.
TY!
Love that kitchen and the bathroom, thanks Josh,
Any time!
LOL - thanx Josh for the transparent review -- Happy 4th!
Theatre seats please!
Granny solo approved👍
love this floor plan and layout with the toilet space was a little bigger
It would be nice. Without the RV being wide body I'm just not sure what there is to be done about it
I’d be buying a thicker drape for the bedroom
You don’t like people watching you?
My personal choice would be the Cougar
Ty
If this had a windshield, I'd be sold. I love the Cougar 22mls because of all the windows.
I was JUST about to say “well then you’ll LOVE the Cougar 22MLS” but it seems you already know that lol :)
Theater seating that reclines would be best if the TV is going to be that high up.
Fair!
I love it other than no outside camp kitchen.
Fair enough! I've not yet seen a builder apply one to this layout. I'm just not sure there's enough space anywhere to squeeze one in
Theater seat for sure
TY
"You're Mad Dog Tannen!"
"I hate that name..."
"Looks like I shoulda paid him that $80 for the horse"
😆
I never thought Coachman would look like this. Wow!!
Beautifully done!❤
Coachmen is a brand that seems to be often overlooked. I've always thought there was a smart way about many of their products. The freedom Express series has always stood out to me
Get some red film to put over that night light.
I love pretty much everything about this trailer except for the lack of a ladder. Start including a ladder and I'm buying this one. If only Freedom Express had this floor plan in this size.
I see a lot of brands offering that removable ladder mount now. Would be surprised if they didn’t follow suit
Nice camper...except gray tank too small, pricey, need deeper slide. Like the double azdel & storage under the bed.
Love the rear kitchen...the bathroom is ok next to the kitchen.
Thx Josh as always 🐾😎
I like that I could transform that to twin beds. Theater seating always. No ladder I'm out.
Check out the jay feather but I publish on Sunday, or the cougar and imagine things like it. I have links to the Cougar in imagine in the description of that jay feather
Your microwave/soup/bowl speech is exactly why I keep saying more counter space please! Thank you. Netted space has to go, needs a door and again why no splash guard at the stove? But I'm loving this layout and that underbed storage is totally amazing. I know this is 10 months ago but still hope we see more like this. I like the graphics, lateral design, the diagonals more common are kinda distracting?
Ty Joyce! These are a strong value brand I think
Would prefer Theater seat!
TY Art!
I would like to see an outlet in the corner behind the corner sink. Would be perfect place for crockpot or coffee pot.
....it really would!
👏👏👏👏well done. Must have recliners, sometimes can’t stay in bed past 3am because of back pain. You talk about pets; we’re not pet haters, but don’t live with them, other than each other, but that’s different. Josh you should be careful about backing up in a RV, those fire extinguishers will trip you then you’ll be saying nothings broke; except my arm😆😆. The short falls on this one, a handyman or handy woman can fix. Keep’m coming bloopers & all
My legs are seriously ALWAYS banged up / scraped up doing these videos. I bonk into stuff constantly without mentioning it
Josh, upon my return home I remedied most issues myself. I had an issue with the sofa binding when closing the slide (no expertise in this area). I'm taking it to the Dealer Monday to have it fixed. So far the benefits outweigh any problems I've had. This unit was so comfortable at the campsite I hated to go out.
Thank you for sharing. I hope you’re able to get the little slide hiccup remedied
Someone who goes RVing was involved in this design. Those night lights were brilliant. We do like the pet friendly aspects of this floor plan. The mini laundry basket is pretty cool. Thanks for showing the road mode stop. This is a pretty cool model.
Totally appreciate the ‘slide-closed access’ feature of your videos! Being unable to access bed or bathroom with the slide closed is an absolute deal breaker for us, so thanks for including that info! Re: the sofa- definitely jackknife, easy to make into a bed type for us 👍🏻
Happy to help!
The day we came up there, they had just gotten one of these things in. The dealbreaker for us was the bathroom, which felt like a broom closet. The kitchen is gorgeous though!! We ended up getting the Alpha Wolf 22SW-L instead.
Just an idea, how about video of all the makers that make the same floor plan in one video. For instance grand design, coachman, etc. all RV builders build this floor plan, so show a video of all the name brand videos. Thanks. Love your videos!👍
I've done a few brand battles like that but the problem is these things aren't parked at one location. I would really like to do EXACTLY what you've described though. Love this idea and TY for it
Theater seats. Most definitely. Nice camper , very good storage on the inside. Great for a small family or couple
Hello; nice, but still preferring the east/west for a privacy door for the bedroom. Thank You, Sir
Fair enough!
Good layout, private bedroom would be nice, and a theater seat option
Try this one: m.th-cam.com/video/Ig2ZmZEzvDA/w-d-xo.html
Hey Josh, thanks for the info, I'm picking mine up tomorrow. I've been looking to upgrade for several months and this one just filled all our needs. I was happy to see you did this review; now I know about things I didn't know about.😁
Thanks again for the info, I'll let you know how it goes.
Congrats!! I found out this one was already sold by the time I recorded it. Seems she's SUPER popular
Camping with Klingons and their dogs, that's an idea
Imagine Klingons arguing with huskies in the campsite next to you lololol
Josh...you always put a smile on my face...love your personality!
Wow, thank you!
Josh, I forgot to mention the layout under the bed is incredible. Also, the lack of storage below is supplemented in transit by underbed storage. No need to leave some things home. When camping the dog loves it under the bed.
Cool new hat. The dinette is kind of a waste of space, I'd turn that in to a full time dog bed. I do like the door side window though, it's bigger than the mail slot windows that a lot of manufacturers put in if the kitchen is on that wall. I really like the storage arrangement under the bed. I really wish they'd flip the spots for the kitchen and the bathroom keeping the layouts the same.
I would love a desk swaption there
This camper has so much much going for it, so why cut corners☹️Just add a porcelain toilet, a decent bathroom fan and a ladder and make it perfect👍
Frankly buddy.. I agree with you
Saint B's think they're a Chihuahua and Chihuahuas think they are Mastiff's. Nice trailer - I would want a power theater seat.
Can’t believe something as small as showing the camper with the slide closed makes me want to watch no one else.
Doing that was a user-submitted suggestion. I can't do EVERYTHING everyone asks, but if I can ever do something like that for you, then let me know
They have some really great and unique ideas in this layout. Love the dog friendly parts, love the layout under the bed. Would prefer theatre seating though. Since it is so small and basically a couples unit, they could gain some extra space for the kitchen/bath by totally eliminating the banquette and instead putting a table against the wall/window with two nice chairs there. Then if you have company visit, you could turn those chairs to face the other seating for a nice visit.
Im pretty critical of RV's, Travel trailers etc. I must say this thing couldn't be better thought out. This would be a perfect alternative to a tiny home as long as it was 4 seasons capable.
For cold camp ratings the Imagine and Cougars test a little better. I suspect cougar would fair the best
This is a nice lookin Travel Trailer but I think that bed protrudes in that 3ntry a little too much, though I thought this one had a halfway decent bathroom and I love that style of rear kitchen's though Cougar 22MLS is still my most favorite one😊😊👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Fair enough!
OK so if you remember me from numerous previous comments, I'm not a fan of slide outs. I feel the more moving parts not to mention the seals the more the chance of issues. Now there adding appliances to them that really scares me. Propane lines to refrigerator and stove??? I do love this layout all the down sides i can live with. Bathroom is tight but I'm not spending lots of time there. Tall side walls and vaulted ceiling ++++ as well as asdell . You may not like this!!!! but you need to have Bishs web developer create a search page that allows customers to select options easily. I know some may think im crazy but id love to be able to pick size ( maybe based on tow vehicle and yes i know that varies from one 1/2 ton to another but possibly 1/2 ton towable or large SUV ETC ), build materials, ( Wood, aluminum, with or without asdell, solar ready or equipped, Bunk house or no bunks, slides etc. To sum it up Id love to be able to build my camper and see what manufactures have what i want kind of close then have a page listing them to look at. For the lack of better terms I'm loosing my mind trying to find something without being able to compare them without doing several searches. I have watched sooooo many of your videos that when i find what I want I'm driving up there from South East Missouri to but it just to make sure your time spent doing all these videos is appreciated.
Something to keep in mind: Appliances in slide is standard practice in fifth wheels. Has been for years. It's really nothing new. Sometimes it seems to spook folks in travel trailers
But there's nothing wrong with no-slides as well. i try to showcase plenty of them where possible
The 2 theater seats if they recline could serve as beds for 2 adults
THIS model doesn't offer that. Their slide is super shallow and light so that sofa with the kickouts is all you can get here. But these can have full theater seating:
→ Imagine 22MLE bit.ly/3IBBLSs
→ Cougar 22MLS bit.ly/2Z3DxKz
I really like this Floorplan for a couples weekend getaway. I would however prefer to see a theater seat in that space. The underbed storage is awesome, I like what they did there. I especially like the "hidden fishing pole" Storage in the pass thru lol. Only drawbacks for me is lack of storage in the kitchen and the not so fluffy friendly space around the toilet, But over-all a very nice camper for sure
Love your videos! Keeps me rethinking and rethinking what I need and what I want and what I don't want.
Maybe you could do "Top 5 (fill in the blank)" videos? Top 5 Half Ton. Top 5 Couple. Top 5 Family Friendly, etc.
Great suggestion! I did a handful last year and a few this year wouldn't kill me! :)
I definitely prefer the theater seating. Now if only Ember would do that.
As they evolve I'm sure they will. They hear people loud and clear. But most of their models currently have slide dead above a wheel well.. can't floor-flush a theater seat THRU a wheel well.
But they're working on solutions
This is another camper on my possible purchase list. I love all of extra room around the bed, wish the end of the bed wasn’t so close to the door. I would keep the sofa, and they need to move the charging station. What type of free floating legs do you recommend for the dinette table? I agree the the outlets in the dinette area should be higher. I like where they put the microwave. The windows by the sink are nice, 12v refrigerator is the way to go. I love all of the storage space, both inside and outside. Especially the lightsaber storage, how deep is that cabinet?
Thank you for everything you show and tell us in your videos.
This one and the Cougar 22MLS are tied for first. If only I could take what I like from each one to create the perfect camper for my retirement.
I don't think you need anything specific for the legs. Something like this I just quick-searched on amazon amzn.to/3yyNWgy
For not much more money and a bit more weight I think I'll probably go for the Rockwood 2506S. Twice the grey tank size and an actual separate bedroom so I can watch TV while my wife goes off to bed. Tho, I really do like the little things like those motion activated night lights but I could always add them. Now just need to sell my 2018 Coachmen 23TQX hybrid now that my kids don't want to camp with us anymore!
And that's why I love having so many different things in our lineup! :)
Theater seats for us
TY Matt
@@JoshtheRVNerd I love that floorplan, but way over here in Northern California, I cant see one anywhere...
This is very nice although I would like to see a free floating table instead of the tubes. The under bed storage is really awesome. This is one id like to see in person.
Well stop on by! ;)
Keystones Passport 229rk s has a private bedroom with the queen bed. Just passing that along.
Yep! GREAT Model and I think that was a smart "spin" on this one. That also added about a foot to the RV which is a consideration for some folks
Love the interior height!! Interesting that it appears that the bed blocks the door. I understand the bed lifts, but it's not really a Murphy bed. Seems awkward. I would like drawers or bins under the dinette. I think the pet dishes are cute, but for one that doesn't have a pet, this seems like a total waste. I would rather have the storage like the other side. Agreed on plug height underneath. I like the wraparound kitchen, with some disclaimers. I would say though, the kitchen drawers would work better on the right. Shift the sink left. The drawers interfere with the bathroom door. (You could do deeper drawers too on the right.) Another cabinet door over the stove would make more sense than the netting. I love the storage in the bathroom, but I would need elbow room. This doesn't work for me. (Rough start Josh. Too funny.) (I have said way too much. LOL)
I think if you saw one in person, the. You’d realize the “flow” from That door is fine. But it’s subjective for sure
Thanks for highlighting the pet friendly features of this RV. That space under bed can hide the litter box while keeping it accessible to the kitties.
Cuddle friendly is the only way to go...especially if you have a cuddle friendly SO...or kids.
Showed this to my wife. She said "Theater. With a big console" lol :)
I like the idea to move than wireless charger to above the radio, or have the radio spot shortened to put the charger there
I guess I'm the radical vinyl seat critic now. So I can honestly say this one hit a home run with the diamond tuck upholstery job😁👍.
We all have those "things" we zero in on. I realized this year I have a few.. like the outside speakers thing
Great competition for the Cougar 22MLS, and the Imagine 22MLE. The light colors make it feel roomy. I have my phone with me constantly, so the best charger spots for me would be next to the sofa, and beside the bed.
TY Gary! Which of the three would you go with given the choice?
I think I know your answer on this one...
@@JoshtheRVNerd You do. The Imagine 23lde, whose extended RV Nerd review is coming soon........?!... 😂 😂
Always liked this floorplan mainly because of that rear kitchen and especially the windows in this design. Still haven't made up my mind on the flip up bed storage. I like the drawers that come out on either side better but as you've said the struts make it easy lifting. Love the roadmode functionality of this design as well. As to who did it best...🤷🏻♀️
Rosanna, the flip up bed design turned out to be one of my favorite Features
Theatre seats all the way for a couple's camper.
Agreed - Bad spot for phone charger and table USB/power outlets.
Sink cover storage - great!
I'd probably add some kind of backsplash behind the stove.
Good fridge.
Night light in bathroom is nice.
TY! First comment btw :)
That furnace duct on the back looks like...well...let's just say it's an exhaust port for the hot gasses to come out of. KnowhatImeanVern? 💩 💨
hahaha
Josh, I'm on my maiden voyage in this unit. If you'll allow me I'll give some first impressions. The floor plan is great, roomy and bright. If given the choice again I would opt for theater seat. Cup holders would be a great addition. The mattress, although a no name brand isn't too bad. The plumbing under the sink has two leaks; Disappointing. Overall fit and finish inside is fair. On the outside I love the look and graphics. The underneath storage is inadequate; glad I have covered bed pickup. I've tried to plug the water hose in on the outside and it just doesn't fit. Hmmm. Overall I'm satisfied, but a dealer visit is needed upon our return; something I never had to do with my 212QB Jayco.
I truly appreciate you taking time to share your experiences like this
It’s that extra info I can’t provide in my videos that really helps some people
LOL that curtain. He's potentially just saved a lot of awkward conversations 😳🤣🤣
wink wink nudge nudge say no more!
Pretty cool set up :) It would have been nice if they had that motion detector light only come out when its dark inside
This layout is perfect, at least for me.
Get the bloody kitchen separated from the dunny!🤺🇦🇺
I'd go with the Cougar. #1 reason is the freestanding dinette option. #2 is Transcend 240ML. Having the door split the booth and pantry is very smart. This is #3, I love the underbed.
I like the full queen access to the bath with slide closed and the solar system
I really like the overall floor plan. The problem is the bathroom. The toilet has to have room to be usable. I am 6' 2" and a big guy. If you can't chicken wing around the toilet it is too small.
I love the rest. The one thing I didn't hear about is the warranty. Is it junk and I am better off with a used option?
I want as much as possible fof boondocking. I love the rosd mode and the height.
I would love to see a wide-body version of this with some extra space in the bathroom..
I agree, move the control/ monitor face over, create a couple narrow shelves with 1 USB/12V plug (they come in a pair with two USB slots under a cap and 1 12V plug under a cap) per shelf. Great place for a charging station, and it still leaves (actually expands the top shelf) shelf and upper portion of the cabinet for other storage.
TY Jan!
Love this take on this floorplan! A big fifth wheel that I enjoy has its place for full timing. At the same time I can see this rig working for my parents as they tend to use the camper as a "home base" of sorts for kitchen/bath/rainy day use while most everyone else in the family tent camps.
Hey Josh……hope you and the family have a great Fourth of July!!!!! This review was great,as usual…..don’t care for the fact that when you walk in the door, you’re literally in the bed…….nope,not good…….other than that ,I like the colors, the storage is good,and really like the bathroom space. I’m spoiled…..our current trailer,while old,has a king bed and can be closed off from the main room. Thanks for sharing……stay nerdy……..❣️😊❣️😊❣️
Maybe try something like this: bit.ly/3ytqWP9
Or these bit.ly/2XeUilz
We like this one a lot! It checks off so many of the must haves and a couple of the nice to haves
My top three....
- The kitchen area is choice! 👍
- The motion sensor night lights brilliant! (pun intended 😝)
- The storage area underneath the bed is VERY neat looking.
However, NOT so hip on the two cabinet doors underneath the sink...
I was like: "Ahh... What happened there???? 😳
Much appreciated Uncle Josh! 👍❤️
Awesome, thank you!
Hi Josh. Could you remove the dinette, replace it with the couch and install two theater seats? Just a thought. Take care Buddy.
I don't believe the factory offers that but the idea is interesting...
Is there a version of this where they forgo the dinette and just have a better entertainment center or inside storage in its place? Or even just a version where there is nothing in the dinnete so it can be removed?
Not exactly with this layout that I've seen. You may consider something like..
→ This... th-cam.com/video/CHqEdon-kJ4/w-d-xo.html
→ or Maybe _this one_.. bit.ly/34yvA3c
I'm liking this floor plan the more I see it. Theater seating gets my vote. Have a great 4th of July weekend.
Ty and you too!!
I like the incliner sofa. Is the sofa brown or more of a green hue?
It's more in the tan family. Cameras process colors in a weird way sometimes. This thing has a purely neutral color scheme
Why did I eat Frosted Flakes in a glass? Because I was to broke to buy a bowl.
Look
We’ve all been there
Great trailer Josh! I’m all about the theater seats!
Theater seats plz…
👍🏻
I saw coachmen at a local RV show near me. To say I was not impressed with the quality would be an understatement. This thing felt like it would literally rattle apart going down the highway. It's a brand that I could never buy since it was so poorly built.
I think you have found the perfect 1/2 ton couples towable! This one ticks ALL my boxes.
Nice! TY for watching! We carry Spirit models at nearly every Bish's store so we're well equipped to assist you on this one!
@@JoshtheRVNerd It’s a bit far from South Texas
@@TexasScout Well... I actually may have good news!!
We just got a store in Longview, Texas and Bish's carries Freedom Spirits at nearly every store. So you MIGHT get your wish yet!
after loaded, probably 6500 or more.. def would have to be careful towing with a half ton.. I know, I did it. Just upgraded to a F350, better to have too much truck
I bet that was a night and day difference
I really like this floor plan. Those little floor lights are great. I like the sofa that is shown. Tv placement is good. If I was redesigning it, I’d open the back of that first dinette seat near the door and add a shoe tray to set my shoes inside. I like the under bed storage. 5 stars for that. Not having a kitchen trash can storage is unfortunate but since the bathroom is right there, putting the trash can in front of the door will work. It can be stashed in the shower when not in use. I like the long rod or rifle storage that is separate from the main storage. All in all, it ticks a lot of boxes for me.
I love that dinette idea!’
Love you video. Is there TT with the same layout, but Murphy bed, so that total length at about 20 to 22 ft?
Closest would be this m.th-cam.com/video/zvgatrRx49A/w-d-xo.html
Under the sink, I’d find a way to knock out that panel to make some storage
Question-(maybe I missed it) Can you get around when someone is sitting in the chairs with the footrest up? Also I wonder if they did the phone there because they thought people might be using their phone for wifi like a roku?
Or they can mirror their phone to tv by usb-c to hdmi. I do this when no wifi and don't have hotspot capability.
@@maelee1999 Some apps don’t allow mirroring for video streaming still.
Would be nice if they all did so we could use phone data instead of hotspot!
I shouldn't of said mirror, screen mirroring sucks. If you have the app on your phone, Samsung will send the video to your tv by USB-c/hdmi cable. I watch tv this way and put my wireless charger by the tv to keep my phone charged if my home internet connection is down. Video will quickly drain your phone battery.
Yeah if someone's reclined you should still be able to scoot thru
@@maelee1999 Do you know if this works with Apple as well or just Samsung?
I love the theater seat option and wish they would have the chairs option like cougar…also, if it has a free floating table like the freedom express 252RBS…omg what a game changer this would be!!! Can we order one as suggested? I’ll buy it today!
I've never seen any brand other than cougar offer the table and chairs which surprises me. Spirits are build generally one way without swaptions being available
@@JoshtheRVNerd thanks for responding! You do a great job and I will be purchasing from Bush because of you!
Bish…autocorrect
@@dennisleiva9956 I do it daily man :)
How is the floor, has Forest River looked into that ?
Something to consider - “forest river” doesn’t oversee anything. Each brand operates independently
I’ve seen Coachmen trailers with laminated floors for about 10yrs now. I have seen less than handful with soft floors
I also saw plenty of their fifth wheels with soft floors in the same times but those are different people with different faculties and engineering
So I am not saying it’s impossible
But these aren’t known for trampoline flooring
I love the way they have done the under bed storage. I think it would be improved if they mirrored the drawers and clothes basket niche for a his and hers setup. The space in the middle also looks like it could handle a small ottoman or two that could be used for extra seating when the grandkids come along.
I also like the sensor lights near the floor for getting up in the middle of the night. If they aren't able to be turned off I would add my own switch as it looks like there is easy access to the wiring and plenty of places nearby to mount a switch.
Never considered an under-bed ottoman.. that might work..
I like this rv. I really like how pet friendly it is. I think there are a couple of different options in this one for a litter box. Which is great for those of us who travel with our cats! (by the way...my cat watches your videos with me...he hears your voice and he jumps up and sits on the side of me to watch. 🐱lol) And love the storage area underneath the bed. I like the fact that it has solid steps, a bigger shower for us fluffy people and a bigger tv. Also gives you an option for different couches. That is a plus. I will keep saying it...I don't like exposed docking station! And no ladder! No bueno! I think if this and the Imagine one had a baby....that would be perfect!!!! Thanks for the video!
My pleasure and thank you as always, Joann!
I just bought a used (and well-stored) Imagine 22MLE, based in no small part on your review from several months ago. I did look at the Northern Spirit, and really wanted that vaulted under-bed storage...but the deal on the 22MLE was just too good.
Wow congratulations! I hope it treats you well!
Would you mind dropping me a quick review at g.page/r/CdPcitNVx2nDEAg/review since my work here was helpful to you? It'll cost you nothing and I'd sure appreciate it!~
Josh, we have a couple of trips under our belt and I thought it appropriate to give you an update. The dealer fixed my slide and no more problems . I'm a bit disappointed in the overall workmanship of the interior. Nothing I couldn't fix but annoying. Making another trip to the dealer to fix the countertop material where it meets the kitchen sink. Cut too short and peeling back.
I would like to see reading lights above the bed. Overall, I'm still happy with the unit.
TY for the Update, Dick. A bumpy start perhaps, but hopefully you're able to now start building some good memories
Josh, it is becoming difficult to stay positive regarding this unit. Every trip is followed by a maintenance trip to the dealer. Thankfully the dealership has been excellent to work with. The aforementioned kitchen top has been replaced. They now have a complete underbody enclosure on order. The old one has so many cuts in it, it wouldn't be able to hold heat if it had to. The dealer will also be checking out the plumbing that came apart on the grey water drain. On a positive note, I still love the floor plan.
@@dickfollis1625 wow buddy. Sorry to see this but I do thank you for the updates
Josh, I have come to the realization that this is a camper I can not recommend. Six months, four camping trips, and six trips to the dealer for repairs. The workmanship is nothing more than terrible. I'm tempted to ask the dealer for a new one. This has to be a lemon.
Thanks Josh! Nice trailer. The seats/dog bed is nice but I'd like to see 2 swivel/rocking/ recliners there. Great travel mode and love the under bed versatility! And really love that rod holder! Now if it just had a generator and a little more fresh water......
Hey Josh, whats the difference between this line and the freedom expresses?
This kind of acts like a missing link between Apex and Freedom Express. I shares more with Apex and has a few extras like the taller ceiling, leveling indicator, and fishing pole hole thing
One problem with that bathroom door. With the drawers opened,, the door opening is gonna get blocked. I prefer sliding doors with good locks
