I camp in Black Bear country and wish they could make those bed extensions to be flexible hard panels that pop out like an Aliner.

Hi Josh,

As this is the my rig I will add my 2 cents! I am fine with the carpet for the slide. Feels good on bare feet when sitting in the dinette. We have baskets for clothes and hung a black curtain just in front of the shelves with an auto LED light behind the TV. All our clothes fit in that space very nicely.
We added some wire shelving in the pantry to make better use of tall compartments. I love sleeping in the tent ends and have a foam topper and sleep with our feet towards that bench so it is more like a King for 2 adults and 3 dogs!! The back bed is also one of the dogs favorite spots and we use that space mostly for additional everyday gear like back packs, guitar, and naps etc. We put a rod across that tent end for our hanging clothes which does not interfere with closing up the bunk at all. We also removed the burners/swing arm from the outdoor kitchen and made a sink with cutting board where the griddle mounts. I have a wonderful Eureka 2 burner stove ( excellent simmer control + wind protection) plus a q 1200 Weber tabletop grill on a separate table for my outdoor kitchen set up. LOVE the big fridge for the bar and b-fast foods especially. With the swing arm gone, lots of room for storage. It all fits under the awning so I can cook in any weather. I go inside only if I have to. The fireplace is amazing and when stuck inside in bad weather our Roo ROCKS. We live in New England so that happens ;-) The bed latches are very flimsy however so need to be careful. More mods to come then onto a Class C for retirement! All the best, B

This is about the Best Hybrid camper I've seen so far, definitely a niche for this one😊😊👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

[LouieTeffeteller]

I owned a hybrid for 5 years. This is by far my favorite hybrid floor plan. Good entertainment, outside kitchen. Its pretty fantastic 👍

I have recently picked up a 2022 21SS, love it so far after one trip. Got the extra solar with 200ah of lithium. Lasted three days with minimal sun and the 12v fridge. They come with thy TPMS sensors but unfortunately Rockwood failed to put them in all the tires. I had one missing, dealer wants the trailer for 3 weeks to simply remove the tire and wheel to install one. So may wait until end of season and just rely on the 3. So check these during your walk around, open the tst package for the sensors and check every tire. Other than that a great trailer so far. Colorado camper here tow with a Silverado trail boss, with the RAS active suspension and eq-4 hitch.

I LOVE how there are shelves everywhere that can be removed if you want hanging storage. We personally need shelves and I have NO IDEA why they do not all come like this?! Awesome layout!!

…and NO CARPET, please. Lol

[flyinjeeper]

Picked ours up in April, and love it! Best hybrid layout there is. Outdoor kitchen sold me, theater seats, fireplace, bathroom and AC sold the wife.

Nice camper. Thanks for sharing Josh👍👍

I own a 2012 Shamrock. I love it. It’s the perfect size for someone that is vertically challenged, like myself and my wife. One thing I would warn about though, when it’s really humid out and you have the a/c kicking, those canvas bed coverings can produce some precipitation. Other than that, these are great “starter” campers.

[snake_king]

Team carpet! The carpet in our slide is so nice in our 233S especially when we camp in cooler fall weather 😁

[pacop]

Josh I love this camper I am seriously considering picking one up at this years Tampa RV super show hopefully I will have the proper tow vehicle. The outdoor kitchen is an absolute game changer being a taller human being it's not a head knocker. Thank you for reviewing this trailer I need a six pack shower caddy 🤣 BTW I have read that if you leave your vent fans on with the door closed up it will suck in the canvas on the tent bed ends.

[Terry-iby]

I wish other couple campers would have this outside kitchen like this one

[skykeg]

I agree with you Josh. I really like this hybrid a lot. Plenty of great features on it. Well designed floor plan.

[stevez]

Awesome floorplan with plenty of seating, a porcelain toilet and large bathroom fan, standard solar and a great entertainment center👍Although I always prefer an attached ladder, unlike manufacturers like Cherokee and Wildwood that no longer offer ladders on most models, hybrid trailers actually have a valid reason for not providing one👍

[COASTER_CHASER_]

the one thin I would maybe change is having the swing out burners optional, or have different features like collapsible sink or just a countertop.

[jamiecrosier]

I love the look. However, I camp in Texas and I am afraid all my A/C air would just leak out the canvas ends. Is this an issue? And what is the bunk weight?

[driverbass]

Thank you for showing headroom under the camp kitchen flip up door!!! This is a very cool, fun, rig! I really like the clearance underneath.

[MayMay_]

I have a jayco x23b, pretty similar, I love it for a family of 4. Everybody gets their own bed

[chuckspencer]

OK Josh.... I don't know why, but I never really think of hybrid campers... The only concern I would have down here in Georgia would be the heat of summer. Not sure how those beds would do with that... and I may not be a super fan of the radius shower, but I think it works in this floorplan! Gotta use the room that you have! The double queen beds in either end make this really useful for two adults, or pairs of adults.... And that would work for buddy / hunting camping down south for sure. Now I'm gonna have to go down this rabbit hole... Thanks Josh!!! 🤣♥

[GriddlezGG]

I love these hybrid campers. So much room but also so short while towing and easy to park. I went with a 21SS over the 235S. A concern for hitch weight is why I made that choice ultimately. The 21SS is 200lbs lighter on the hitch which is crazy considering it's only 2ft shorter than the 235S but has mostly the same features (minus the outside kitchen).
