They all leak, they’re all built of toothpicks, and every one leaves the factory 80% right and complete and seem to spend 2-4 months in for warranty work in the first couple years.

If it can be avoided, don’t buy one that’s been stored outside and don’t store it outside.

Otherwise, rock on!

That's a pretty good summary haha.  You've already bought one?  There's a lot of decent looking smaller units on FBM right now.

were in the process, picking it up tomorrow.

we found a floorplan we like and think it'll work well with our 2 kiddos..

its a 2024 so hopefully at least some kinks are taking care of...  ::)

hoping to get at least a few years out of it, before kids don't want to go, haha
