side patio

We are considering buying a Momentum 399TH. It has a side patio. I'm wondering if any one has input on side patios. Pros and cons. Thanks in advance
  • Have two patios on our Seismic 4212. simple mechanism, no moving parts to breakdown and great when it rains. It keeps the pets dry and off the wet ground.
  • I think it's a neat new feature, but I wonder about leaks and the inability to deploy it in crowded CGs with narrow sites and trees.
    That wouldn't stop me from buying one though.
  • Will definitely be a consideration on the next rig we buy!
  • I've been looking at rigs that have side patio and although its a neat feature, it seems to cut down on the amount of livable interior space you have especially in the area where you eat and relax. The ones I looked at that don't have a patio has a slide out there. Seems to be a big trade off for those that camp in the cooler months just to have a raised platform to sit outside.
