Rockwood HW276


Click on the floorplan to go to page




While Rockwood is at the bottom of my list for likes, it looks like they have the only pop up now that will fit my families needs. Other brands have dropped or limited their pop up floorplans.

Here's my likes about this floorplan, decent counter top space for food and prep, counter top for TV and bluray, Freezer, hanging wardrobe and pantry, coat hanger, lots of cabinet storage, roof air, DSI HWH and shower/toilet.

Pop Up Bonus: Double sink, High wall, oven and microwave, double propane tanks.

Unit has all the options except bike rack and screen room for a bit around $13K.

Leary about Rockwood due to all of my problems with the 2005 2290 but this model seems reasonably priced and provides for our needs.

What's everyone's experiences on this model. It's a 2014 but may look at 2015. Nice that it will fit into garage so no worries if we don't have backyard access for the Jay Flight.

BTW, this is part 2 as we are looking for a house. IN the area we want, property is very pricey and having enough acreage for the TT may not be doable. We are trying to keep the TT but want a backup plan as camping is our favorite thing to do.

Thanks

  • Thanks everyone for your comments. My wife gave me a strong answer in that she doesn't want to camp in anything other than the TT. So we'll just have to find a house that will accommodate it even if it's in another area that's more affordable.

    Thanks again.
  • I have a Flagstaff model which almost identical to this one. It's in the shop again for the electric lift motor to be repaired/replaced and the A/C freezing up.

    After having been to the last RV show, seems like alot of manufacturers build as cheaply as possible and rely on the dealers to fix problems.

    Outside of a few nagging problems that need to be corrected, we really do enjoy the trailer when we get a chance to use it.
  • Friends of ours have this model and they love it. I dont recall them having any significant issues with it..

    Im not big on Forest River products but Id consider this one if I was buying new
