They're both great floorplans. I would choose the one that the wife likes. My preference is always a trailer that allows access to the fridge and bathroom when the slideouts in closed.

Thanks Bob!
One has a rear kitchen and one has an island...
One has windows on the camp side the other very little...
Any issues or thoughts on that?
We still have a 2011 SB 29 RL in the wings, its currently down south for another month...
Its been well looked after but used for 6 months a year down south...
This maybe good as its been out of the -30 weather but on the other side the water heater, cooler, etc has been used a lot...

One of the things I’m not crazy about in my Silverback is the lack of windows on one side of our fifth wheel. I do like windows. I also like rear kitchen models and I’m not a fan of the center islands so I don’t have to tell you which one I would pick. Of course there are always tradeoffs when buying a trailer so I reiterate, buy what the wife likes.

We were wondering if units with rear kitchens were issues as they dont seem to make many anymore...
Wondered if things bumped anymore than normal being in the back...
Thoughts on a rear kitchens over middle ones?
We too like windows and ones that are also on the campfire side so you see your site not just the guys next door...

Have had 30 RKLE 5 years and never had anything spill or fall over. Really like the rear kitchen as it is out of the way and had so much counter space and storage space.
