Can I ask a question about the sofa in this unit? I looked that the rockwood and the flagstaff today and the couch was so far forward of the wall it was a waste of space. We decided after looking at both of them that we are getting the 2509s. I fell in love with the front kitchen and the separate bedroom.

There is space behind the couch in the 2109s. The removable table goes back there when not in use and I am finding the leftover space good for storage. I would prefer it a couple inches back myself though.

Thanks for that. This was the only thing I didn't like about this coach, this is why we decided to go with the 2506s, with the front kitchen. It has the u shaped dinette that I can take out table and add footstools to make it more couch like.

That is a nice plan as well. We considered the 2104 which has the u shaped dinette instead, but I wanted the sofa.

Cheri, could you further explain the "frog. drain connection? We have some dampness around the undercarriage under the shower as well. Thanks.

refrigerator drain connection
it is the small hose that comes out the back of the frig. and drains thru the outside rig. access pane. have not tested it yet by pouring some water in the condensation tray inside the frog. under the cooling fins to see if water comes out drain hose or runs down the back of frig. no other leaks or wet spots under the shower floor anywhere..will let forum know results of test

Funny how plans change. We went to buy the 2506 then completely changed our minds and went with a Shamrock 21ss! Probably find something else next week if I don't hurry and pay for one!

Has any one noticed that the 21fbrs and the 2109s are 8 inches lower to the ground ? We are considering one and noticed it only has two steps. We have a 2104S and it has 3. When you live a lot outside and cook and eat outside it's in and out, in and out. Seems so much easier to just go 2 steps? Also it seems it would tow better too being lower to the ground. Are we the only ones who noticed?

We have a 2012 21FBRS. The couch folds out to make a bed so the room behind it is needed for clearance. We use that space for storage. It is a handy place for the electric cord for shore power.

We store our Solar panel behind the couch so the space is well utilized

Bought the 21ss hybrid and I hate it. Wish I would have stuck with the 2506s. No smoke, not as much noise, no rain that sound like bullets on the canvas.
Anyone want to buy a Shamrock 21ss?
