My AF has opposing slides but only two. Super slide is on driver side and bedroom slide on passenger side. A couple of downsides for me are:
1) Bedroom slide is in the patio area where there's more foot traffic and poses a hazard for hitting your head on the slide.
2) Because it's on the patio side, it infringes somewhat on my lounging area. Mine is a wardrobe slide so it only comes out about 2ft and it's up high. So, it's not a big deal for me. But a deeper slide at the main floor level would have more of an impact.
3) My patio awning is shorter because of the slide. I have seen some trailers where the passenger side slideout significantly shortens the awning (and resulting shaded area for lounging).
In later model years, Northwood has moved the bedroom slide to the driver side - must have been for a good reason.
