Grand Design Imagine

Purely a SWAG but the floor is probably 5/8" plywood, and the aluminum frame is set on top of the floor then all three components are through bolted together. There is probably a wooden floor frame between the floor and running framework.

Grand Design owners forum has all the information you probably need on their products. I joined the forum after buying our Grand Design 328M. Grand Design customer service also monitors the site.

Looks like that forum might be ok, but... maybe the Imagine line is still just too new.

It says "Laminated Aluminum Framed Floor" in the brochure. That pretty much means it's the typical sandwich construction, luan glued to Styrofoam.

My wife and I recently purchased an Imagine 2800BH and are extremely happy with it. I really like the thought that went into the design. And I must say their customer service is second to none.

So I looked at one today. Pretty nice! It was about 25F with snow on the ground so I didn't linger. Observations: interior is nice. Fit and finish was very nice. The "drop frame" access to the forward storage is nice, easily allowing room to stow even a large generator or tall cooler. It looked like a 6cft fridge versus 8 for some of the competition, but the stainless touches looked good. Reasonably roomy front bedroom. The decals on the front had obvious overlaps, which is probably ok once I'm not looking at it. A previous poster observed that the floor is likely the typical sandwich with foam board in the middle. Couldn't argue with that, but it was firm everywhere I could test. Ground clearance is not all that great but doable. My younger self would find the ground clearance a show stopper, my older self, meh.. probably ok. I've probably forgotten a few details. Sorry.

Don't like the interior décor.... too cold and commercial looking. super dark cabinetry and white walls... not warm at all.. Take a look at the Bullet line of Ultralights. We have a 2014 and have had ZERO issues with it in the year we have used it.. Beautiful, luxurious interior, lots of features, with under 6000 lbs with TW of 600. And that is a 30 footer!You can get smaller with weights under 5000. Have seen only positive reviews on this forum from Bullet owners. Check them out!

I agree the interiors do look a little severe. But I really like the floor plans. Couldn't find a Bullet that compared. And I'm confident that they would be easy enough to warm up with a little decorative finesse.

Still need to find out their cargo capacity too. Can't believe that's not referenced somewhere!

My dealer started carrying this Grand Designs. DO NOT like this brand. Poor build quality, cheap interior treatments, and the worst none functional floorplans. I've looked mainly at 5ers, but a few TTs.

Guess others like it, otherwise they won't be in business long.

Last month's Trailer Life did a spread on the Imagine.
