I found out that when you are looking at 24 ft size and under MH's. You will either only have the pull out couch as a bed or even worse the dreaded corner bed in the back!
The couch is really not comfortable for two.
The corner bed is even worse. If one person on the far side wants to get out of the bed they have to 'crawl' over the other person. Making a corner bed just sucks.
AND the corner bed floor plan eats into the bathroom leaving you with a bathroom that if you are over 5 ft un'do'able. I highly recommend you sit on the toilet of any RV you buy to see if you fit and/or even can close the door. Been there done that on my first RV AFTER I bought it.:B
I searched and searched for my first used MH, because I wanted to stay under 24 ft but to no avail for a floor plan that gave me a decent place to sleep and go to the bathroom easily. They just don't exist.
I ended up with a 31 ft with a queen walk around bed, a split bathroom that gives you tons of room to move around and sit and a great big glass surround shower with a skylight. Which gives you light and extra room if you are tall.
I've never regretted going up to the 31 foot for the bed and bathroom. :C
