The dumbest thing I see in my camper and every camper is the huge amount of wasted space in the cabinetry. This is most apparent in the under-the-counter drawers. Generally there is a face frame, slides, and then a drawer box made such that 12" wide cabinet front results in 7" wide drawers. Contrast that with some European van conversion which have no face frame, full width and full extension drawers. In my Bigfoot, if you calculate the volume of the drawers and compare it to the overall volume they consume in the camper, it is less than half. This same thinking is applied to much of the storage. It seems to be true of every North American brand.
Something that rivals that for dumbness is the seating at the dinette. I have yet to sit in a camper dinette that was comfortable. Flat seats, straight up backs not high enough. Its the sort of seating they use at Gitmo on terrorists.
