Excellent for travelling in low clearance areas, hard sides, and an excellent camper.. Cassette toilet for remote areas...etc
Absent spending an appreciable amount of money (we were quoted $2K) on top of their already not inconsiderable purchase price, Alaskans don't come with a bathroom nor holding tanks. This makes them non-players in some campsites that require the units to be self-contained.
Their stock shower setup is a dishpan set in the aisle with the sink sprayer as the shower.
Their cabover models also leave the sidewalls open to the elements until someone climbs up there to raise them. Those panels also lay flat on the mattress when the top is lowered so anything on them will run right into your bedding.
We looked at Alaskans HARD when we first started shopping for a TC back in the day but ultimately decided they had too many trade-offs for us.
Our Outfitter had more amenities and while spendy was still cheaper then the Alaskan.
