Luminara42, what did you end up buying? My husband and I just purchased a 2017 Bullet 248RKS. We're enjoying it so far!
Pros- great counter space in rear kitchen, lots of storage throughout camper - we especially love the wardrobe/pantry next to the sofa and the 3 cabinet linen closet in the bathroom, plus storage under the bathroom sink, good storage in kitchen and dinette area too, glass enclosure for shower, love having two 30 gallon gray tanks (kitchen and, bathroom), hitch weight is reasonable, two outside doors, good ground clearance, laundry hamper door in bed side table leading down into pass through storage, no carpet except in slide, outside shower, comfortable tri-fold sofa in deep slide and can squeeze by when it's out if necessary, dinette opposite of sofa, 32 inch tv on swing arm across from sofa, electric awning with LED light strip, all controls and gauges right inside back door up high enough for children to not be able to reach them, center bathroom so everyone is able to access bathroom without crawling over anyone else at night, just under 30 feet so will fit in most state/federal parks, weight is manageable for a 1500/150 appropriately equipped
Cons - hard to get in and out of bed on road side, due to side table sticking out pretty far, short queen bed, cannot access bathroom when slide is closed, difficult to access thermostat when slide is closed, shower is a bit tight for a larger person, two separate gray tanks means either moving the camper at the dump station when finished draining the front gray tank (bathroom) and black tank, to the rear tank (kitchen), or parking between them and using a long stinky slinky, moving it from front to back as needed to drain.
The pros outweigh the cons for us, and we're learning to get around the cons. Fortunately, my husband and I are not tall/large people, so the short queen and smaller shower weren't deal killers.
