Coachmen Chaparral

I looking at some of their 5th wheels. How are the floors since I see it is a foam sandwich setup and I have read foam seems to be a problem.
Thanks for any input good or bad.

Purchased our 2017 Chaparral in July 2016. Floors have been rock solid as they should be. No problems at all.

I just purchased a 2021 Chapperal 360 IBL, with mid bunk slide out. A few things after a good shake down camping.
*We can not adjust the shelves in the refrigerator, the door hits the sink counter and does not open wide enough.
* the pee trap in the bathroom under the sink is on backwards, it leaks around the connection coming from the sink pipe, A 5th grader knew that wasn't right.
other then a that It was a good shake down.

To adjust the doors in the Refrigerator you have to take off the plastic strips running vertical on either front side of the shelves. I removed a lower shelve so taller things would fit.

We have had our Coachmen Chaparral 336 for almost a year now and no major problems with it.
