2014 Evergreen Element

[CatInSnoho]

I was cruising Evergreen's website the other day and the redesigned Element caught my eye. They've kept the rounded exterior but updated the inside with a more conventional interior. The 60x80 queen bed, 8 cf fridge and 48" molded fiberglass shower along with that cool exterior has me intrigued!

From looking at Evergreen's Facebook page it seems they have showed a demo off at several RV shows this month. Has anyone seen it in person and care to share their first impressions?

I bought a 2010 ever-lite in October only had one weekend in it, Glad to hear they have a good reputation.

The Element in it's previous form has been discontinued. Evergreen has redesigned them to be longer and taller with a more conventional interior. I have always liked the exterior appearance but the itty-bitty stove, fridge, and furniture of the previous Element made it a no-go. This new version is very intriguing!

We're in the same boat, downsizing from Toy Hauler. We both like the molded shower and other details of the new Elements. Really glad to hear the pricing is going to be buyer friendly, sounds like an order and road trip to pick it up at the factory might be in order.

Supposedly they're discontinued.

VAVet96 - thank you so much for the information! I can't wait to see one in person. My husband and I are looking for something that doesn't look like every other box trailer out there but can't see spending the heart-stopping amount of money to buy an Airstream. After all, it will only be used a few weeks a year and we'd like to be able to afford the occasional plane trip somewhere. That 30's price tag sounds good to me!

Saw an Element at the Virginia Beach RV show two weeks ago. Beautiful, inside and out. We're going the motorhome route, but if I was looking for a great trailer, this one would've jumped right to the top of our list. Lightweight, aluminum structure, and finally a much more reasonable price. Nice open floorplan too. Had the two swivel rockers in this one. Scenic RV from Williamsburg VA had it there. The Evergreen guy was there too and I got the impression this one was brought in for the display from Evergreen. Said it was going to be priced in the 30's. If that ends up being true, it's a big improvement over the $50 - $100K Earthbound was asking for the same design before they went out of business last year.

I have read a lot of great things about Evergreen, so much so that I would not hesitate to purchase from them if I like the Element once I see one in person. I give up on which construction method is best; they all have issues. There is no perfect trailer. At this point if I like it, I will buy it!

youngone - "Owning a 2012 Evergreen Ever-lite Trailer I will tell you I love my Compositek trailer.I have dealt directly with the company when I needed parts and let me tell you they are there All the time with quick return emails and the parts are sent out right away. Any questions that I had they will answer right away. I would for sure buy from this company again."

Our experience as well. Evergreen has demonstrated a level of customer care and service and product quality that seems above the norm for the industry.

Not that I'm planning on buying one anytime soon cause I have a very nice TT and no plywood that will rot! I do wish they would built an all Compositek 5th wheel. They stopped making the Compositek 5th wheels a couple of years ago. I think they only had 2 floor plans

If the Element has Compositek it's ok!

Still good looking, but I REALLY liked the previous models, which were much lighter.
