In our Arctic Fox, the refrigerator is directly across from the kitchen. This works for us since space is much smaller and you can do a basketball pivot move between sink and refer and not be called for traveling...
These larger units that require you to walk around the corner to reach for perishable or frozen items does not make sense. Put the pantry and wardrobe at the far reach and keep the kitchen together.

What we did not like about the Chalet TS, Host Everest and Eagle Cap DS was the location of the refrigerator from the rest of he kitchen. As an Everest owner, what are pros/cons of your layout.

We have the Everest which is the same size,different floorplan. We too omitted the oven as the Micro is a convection type. This gives you a couple more drawers. They also offer storage cabinets over the couch and the dinning table which increases storage. Really is plenty of storage.
We also tote ours on a 3500 1-ton dually. Although I do have heavier springs and air bags. Hauls the camper easily. Only thing I feel is a must is a exhaust brake.
The triple slides are unbelievably comfortable. We also toured the Host factory and was impressed with their quality. Ours is a 2008 and haven;t had one problem with it yet(probably shouldn't have said that).
There are alot of processes they do/or don't do that's different from others,i.e., vacuum bonding walls in house,welding processes, no lumber sandwhiched in the tubing(rather they use heavier tubing),etc. Might want to investigate the manufacturers processes.
The Mammoth is definitely a Cadillac.

I was also looking at the Host at the local RV show. Right now it is toss up between this unit and the triple slide Eagle Cap. As for price, you cannot compare a new unit to used. Super C's are north of $125k and not as compact as a truck camper (many also do not have 4wd).
