Question Rockwood Mini Lite 2104S

We have an Rpod 177 and have had many wonderful excursions with it. However, crawling out of that bed is not so wonderful and we're thinking of moving up to the 2104S Mini Lite. Does anyone have one and how do you like it? We want the one with the actual bed and bump out dinette.

We have a 2306, and saw a 2109S at the RV show when we ordered our model. Great little campers!

any issues

Any issues with the 2306? We figure the Rpod was great and never had any problems so another Forest River product would be of the same quality.

We don't know of any issues with the 2306 because we have a 2109S and really enjoy it. We've had it for a year. One of the things we like in this floor plan is the larger kitchen counter (larger than most of the others), and the closet (for coats or longer wear & other stuff) right inside the entry door. The 2104 doesn't have either the counter space or a similar closet. We chose this floor plan over the 2104 as we enjoy the sofa. We can open up the floor area more by folding the table and putting it behind the sofa if need be. One of the things we did was add a 2-1/2 inch memory foam pad to the bed and it has made a wonderful difference.

Hope you find one that meets your needs and that you are as happy with yours as we are with ours!

We have only had our 2306 for a week, but taking it out for the second time tomorrow. We love it so far. We have 6 trips planned during the next 3 months, so we should learn a lot. Good luck, at this point I would definitely recommend it!

We are upgrading from an Rpod 182G to a 2306. Really liked the floor plan for our family of four. (Not so) Patiently waiting on deliver in mid-April. Loved the Rpod... Just need more space (mostly a bigger bathroom) without a lot of extra weight..
Phil... Did you get a chance to see what your delivered weight was?

2104S electrical outlets

We looked at the 2104S on Friday and I love the openness of it. We're still thinking about it though. One thing I didn't notice was outlets (other than in the bathroom). Can you tell me where they are located? I work on the road, so need outlets for my equipment. Hopefully there is one or two next to the table.

We have a 12 2104 with the murphy bed. So far in 2013, we have been out for 4 nights and love it. We too looked at the Rpods and thought they were great looking and they didn't look like everyone else's RV. But in the end we really wanted a walk around bed so went with the 2104. Tows great with our Tacoma too. So far it's just the right size for the two of us.

I have the 2304S Love the bigger bathroom, more counterspace and the murphy bed is fantastic! Comfy, yet folds up out of the way for a more spacious feel.
