Congrats on your new Apex! Keep an eye on those slam latch doors. I had to re-adjust the catch on mine because they were letting some water in. Overall, I am happy with ours. Some small issues, but you will probably get that with any brand. Have fun!

We just delivery of ours last week too ! It's longer and lower than what we used to tow and have noticed that I really have to keep an eye on ground clearance for the back-end (sewer pipes and scissor jacks) when backing/pulling on hilly terrain. We were pretty tight while backing it into our inclined driveway when we got home. I realize now why those 'A' supports underneath are there.

Also, as someone mentioned about theirs..the drain pipe connections were also loose on mine. Had a small leak under the sink so check yours.

Hey guys let's keep this thread Apex 288bhs specific. It would be great for us to have for info gathering as time goes on . Like you had mentioned 'CLT' about the slam latch doors. I will have info on a porcelain toilet that fits soon (last camper had one and wife is missing that). I do know the Dometic 310 does not. Trying the Thetford Aqua Magic Style 2 when it arrives. Stay in touch. I'm trying to post a pic but looks like you can't with an I-phone.
