Our Trailer is in!!

The good news is we got word yesterday that our Salem Hemisphere 272RL is in and on the lot !!
The bad news is that we ordered the rocker/ recliners and they shipped it with the theater seats instead. The dealer said he has to call his Hemisphere rep. and service to get this figured out.
The good news is we are going to check out the camper tomorrow and see if we got everything else we ordered.
So it won't be to much longer before we bring it home !!

That is good news. Don't let the dealer convince you to take it now ( sign for it) and bring it back when they get the proper seating. Once they get paid, many dealers are less motivated to resolve issues quickly. You are buying this to enjoy for a long time, don't jeopardize that to get it a few days earlier.

Nothing beats rocker recliners for comfort. Congrats on your new rig!

I'll make sure we get our recliners. I'm looking forward to having them in our camper.
They still have to get our Step Above steps in yet and put that on yet.
The StepAboveâ„¢ is the Next Generation of RV Steps for Stable and Secure Footing.
We're getting old. We need some better steps than what comes with the camper.
So between getting the steps in and putting them on we hoping they get the recliner issue resolved.

It's a lot easier to get it taken care prior to accepting delivery.

BTW - congrats on your new RV!

I agree, the drink holders are a big plus!

Thank you everyone.
We can't wait to get it home!!

I agree that you need a drink holder and I'll take care of that when I build a table to put in the middle of the chairs!!
We just wanted our individual chairs and for the rockers also.
We've been married for 42 years,so we really don't feel the need that we have to be that close together to have the theater seats.
