28' bunk house suggestions?

Currently have a the 28' QBSS Radiance by Cruiser RV. I paid roughly $20K brand new last year which I Thought was a decent deal for the product.

I like everything except for the fact that the slide blocks everything when closed. Cant get to the rear bunks for loading and unloading, cant get to the toilet.

All these 28' bunk houses appear to have a similar layout. What I DO like is the solid wall of cabinets between the front bedroom and the living area whereas most seem to have a curtain or double slide doors which make it seem less like a bedroom. Outdoor kitchen and large slide area are nice as well.

Just wondering what other trailers in this length (33' overall) there are which might be more accessible. It's not really a deal breaker but it feels like I am opening and closing the slide so much just to load and unload. It seems most are in the 31' range for a little more flexibility. 33' fits on my driveway perfect so going longer will screw that up and block the sidewalk which is illegal.

  • Grand Design Imagine 2800BH addresses your problems. Its my next TT...I just sold my current last week instead of trading it in.
  • Look at the Jayco 28 BHBE, about 33' oal.The bunks are blocked by the slide from what I recall when shopping last year, but the bathroom has an outside entrance door directly into it. I don't remember how accessible the fridge is with the slide in.

    Good luck!!!
  • I have a 30' with a slide and yes its the same configuration as yours with a deep slide I usually just push out the slid a little bit for access if on the road and someone need the bathroom as for loading and unloading I open it up all the way for access. We went from 27' and no slide to 30' and deep slide i guess I have just learned to get around it.
  • Our TT (30' Bunk House) has a narrow slide but it seems every newer model now has really deep slides which makes the TT unusable when they are closed. Maybe I'm wrong but that sure seems to be the case. It's nice on long trips to pull into a rest stop and use the kitchen and access the fridge. The disadvantage of my narrow slide is that it doesn't add much room when it's open :R Good luck in your search, I'll be interested to see if you find anything.

    Here's a picture that shows how narrow my slide is.
