I gotta tell you, wife and I LOVE LOVE LOVE the driftwood color cabinets and flooring. Makes it seem beachy and bright. Mine is actually a light grey, not white.

It probably is light gray. We've been calling it white for the better part of the year! 
Hopefully the new cabinet colors will grow on us! We're looking forward to our first trip, and I'm sure it won't take long to get over the "brown" wood!

Refrigerator...
I’m confused... Please help. I just received a new 2021 BHS... and it had a 12v Magic Chef Refrigerator in it. Looking at the Brochure, that only comes in 12RK...
I messaged Forest River tonight 01OCT20. Waiting for reply.
Should I be pissed?

Who are you asking? That's why it's better to quote who you're responding to.

I just received my 2021, 16bh and have the same thoughts as you regarding the magic chef fridge. I'm curious if you have heard back from Forest River, and if so, what did they say?

The 2021 G16BH has two refrigerators. The outside bar fridge is a Magic Chef and the inside is a Dometic on my unit.

12 volt fridge
As i understand it from "reliable sources", the standard fridge that used to be the 6 cubic foot usual absorption RV fridge such as in the 19FD, has been replaced with a larger capacity 10 cubic foot(?) 12 volt unit for the units now in production for the 'real' 2021 output. Additionally for units equipped with solar packages, as the 19FD, that has also been upgraded to help with the bigger power demand while off grid with the new fridge. Still only comes with a single lead acid battery from the dealer as 'standard', however, so upgrading the battery along with adding a second battery would probably be good for this arrangement.
And on that note, some folks have noted that their new RV has the fridge installed 'crooked', as in the bottom protrudes outward giving the unit a leaning appearance, which of course NOT correct and said units should NOT be accepted until the dealer corrects the issue so that the fridge is properly installed and looking like this:

Wow, very jealous of new style fridge/freezer. At least I know now if mine dies, the bigger one will fit in the hole. Microwave looks like an improvement too. Mine is all glossy black fingerprint magnet. And finally, and probably most important...the sink is so much bigger! And the faucet neck is so much taller! I hate our tiny little sink, so difficult washing stuff. I usually wash the pans and bigger stuff outside using outdoor shower. Does that sink have the water miser? THAT'S where it should be, not on the shower that is 3 feet away from the water heater.
edit: BTW, I believe my current fridge in my G19FD is only 5 cu. ft, from looking on Dometic site. The new fridge is only 29 lbs heavier than old fridge.

Ok, thanks for the input. 'Greywater' my 16 bh has an insignia 12 volt outside fridge and magic chef 10 cf inside but includes a 190 watt panel, assuming to offset the additional power needed. Looks like I'll be getting an additional battery and increasing the quality.

Yeah, they change these things all the time. Some changes are for the sake of improvement, but I suspect others might just be Covid related supply issues.

No, sadly no room for it with that fancy single handle faucet. But it would be a good spot for one, at the end of the plumbing run from the water heater.

Yet another upgrade. The single handle kitchen faucet.

2021 Geo Pro 19BH
Hello all,
Had a question about the shower water miser. Just wandering, if I am hooked up to Campsite water, and if my water miser is re-routing water, my FRESHWATER tank will eventually get water in it from the watermiser correct?
Also, does anyone know if I need to manually bypass the freshwater tank when hooked up to campsite water ? Or since it is a separate inlet hookup, it automatically bypasses the freshwater water tank?
Thank you in advance!

The miser is intended to save you from wasting fresh water from your tank by recirculating it until it's hot. There's no real reason to use the water miser when hooked up to campsite water. If you use it, it will direct hookup water into your tank.

newstage, just type 'sanitizing fresh water' in search window. Enough there to keep you busy reading for awhile. It's all been asked and answered.

Of all the changes I think the new sink and faucet are the best. As to the fridge, I am not sure it is any better. Don't you sacrifice capacity by having two doors instead of one.
Back to the sink, anyone know who the manufacturer is? I have emailed Forest River, no reply.

Hi Charby,
I am going to buy a 2019 Geo Pro 19FD. I have the same tow vehicle as you, a 2019 Honda Ridgeline AWD RTL-T. How does the Honda do towing your camper?
