Roo 21ss vs. shamrock 21ss

So whats the difference in them? so far it seems some shamrocks have a enclosed shower and some roos have a curtain? we love this floor plan but it looks like were gonna have to drive 10hrs to find one so i need to be sure its "the" one lol

Roo and Shamrock are the exact same trailer.
Only difference is outside graphics and interior decor patterns.

What you're seeing in shower difference, is one was built before the new changes were made.

They won't be sold by the same dealers since they have protected territories, so you can shop the dealers as well as the campers themselves. We bought a Shamrock instead of a Roo because we liked the dealer better. More knowledgeable, more professional, and a much better overall experience. Still that opinion after 2 years.

RVDirect does sell both Roo and Shamrock hybrids.
Not sure if you can pick both brands at the same location, though.

Only differences is the outside decals/graphics & very minor inside decor. They are made at the same factory. We went with the Shamrock because we liked the name better.

Hi. We had a Roo 21ss for a few years. It's a very nice layout except for the access to the rear bunk if adults will be using it. Also, there is very little storage. Just something to think about, every layout has pros and cons. Happy camping!

Yes, we came from the Forest River Freedom 282XRT pop-up. So from our perspective the storage in the Shamrock 21SSL more than doubled.

X2!

We fell in love with the Roo 21SS the first time we stepped into one at an RV show. We thought our Bayside pop-up with its dinette slide-out was nifty. But the 21SS was like walking into a ballroom! Massive storage compared to the pop-up. Yup - everything's relative huh?

We went with the Roo instead of the Shamrock because we liked the dealer better and he was just 10 miles from our home. (Very subjective - but when you get a bad impression it's hard to discount it.)
