Formaldehyde. Which Manufacturers use the least?
Hi everyone,
We are considering purchasing a used camper and one of the big concerns we have is about the formaldehyde smells in so many RVs.
We are just starting to lay the groundwork but so far we are considering the Adventurer 86FB, Lance 855, Northern Lite Classic 8' 11", and the Wolf Creek 850. Our truck is a 2004 Dodge Q.C. short bed, 3500 SRW 4x4 with the Cummins.
The only truck camper we have ever owned was a 2002 Lance 845. It did not have a smell inside and I know lance claims to not use formaldehyde. I don't know what year they changed over to Azdel but that sounded interesting.
On the other hand we had a 2005 Nash TT that we spent months at a time in and up until we sold it this year, it always had that smell.
My question is: Has anyone with campers by these manufactures noticed a smell? Some RV's I've been in have had such a strong odor that it burned my eyes and others haven't had much smell at all. Also any tips on the quality of these campers or any other bit of info or experience would be greatly appreciated! I've tried to read all I can to narrow down the choices before running around to look at them.
Thanks in advance! I've spent quite a bit of time on this forum reading and it have been very helpful!
