If you have . . . or have had . . . this model, can you tell me some pros and cons about it? Any information you'd like to share would be greatly appreciated. Here are a few questions that I do have some concern about:

1) the back storage under the Den . . . because it's not very tall, do you find it really hard to get to things? What do you store back there? I'm thinking tables/chairs, fishing poles, brooms/mops and narrow plastic bins. Can't think of much else that would fit there.

2) Is the bathroom too small to manauver around when you are a little 'fluffy'?

3) Are the bedrooms drawers barely worthless?

4) Is the living room furniture comfortable or really hard?

5) Do you have the new stove/oven combo? If so, how do you like it?

As I said . . . if there is anything you LOVE or HATE about it, please share.

Thank you so much!

I am the one referred to in the previous answer with the frame flex. Ours is a 3790RD with the RV fridge being the only difference. Ours is at the factory now and supposedly being taken apart as I write this. Al units will have a few flaws as fast as they build these things, but my beef with Montana is that we've been trying to get their attention since July of '16!!!! They answered us in November, scheduled for Feb and haven't notified us of the work starting yet!
As for your questions..
1) We store our outside cook stuff, small 150psi air compressor, ladder, MorRyde cord reel, chairs, some tools, corn hole boards, ice cream maker, and such under there. Some things you have to turn on its side to get it under there and then sit it upright.
2)I am 6' and 265 pounds(at the moment!) and have no trouble getting around in the bathroom. The door is awkward to navigate around the first trip, after that there's nothing to it.
3)No. The drawers are very nice in the bedroom, plus you have the storage bins to the left behind the mirrors and the closet to the right IF you don't have the W/D units.
4)The living room furniture is very nice. It is firm, but not too soft you can't get up from. We all love it. Very comfortable.
5)We have the stove/oven combo as well as the Microwave. We love the unit. I've so far not been impressed with the electric cook tops like in the Big Country units.

This was my wife's "dream camper" that's turned into a nightmare so far. That it ALL ON KEYSTONE. Now, that being said, if the unit comes back repaired and in working order, we will see how it progresses from there. Before the frame issue, just a few minor things then we had the AC issue that is on Dometic and being repaired while it is there. We love the floor plan and the storage. Much more so than our previous two Sandpipers s they were bunkhouses. I love the drop frame of the Montana as well. Lots of storage up front as well. Many out there have had no problem with theirs and I hope that continues. We just got a bad one and I'm trying to stay as optimistic as I can be. Otherwise it is just not healthy for me!

Opps! I almost did it again . . . clicked on the wrong 'quote' button. LOL

Thanks for the honesty. I hope you get it all fixed to your liking and end up loving it. I had to laugh at a video I watched the other day showing how an RV was made (can't remember the brand). They said in the video that 1 in every 10 is sent to a 'rain machine' to make sure they are now leaks. I thought "what about the other 9?" I guess yours was one of the other 9. :(

I agree that all of them will have issues and we are prepared for that. AND you are wise to stay optimistic! :) Not healthy for anyone to be stressed in this lifestyle (or any others for that matter). Good luck to you and I hope you get yours back soon!
