Fiberglass fibers everywhere

Just walked through the 2023 22C for the first time and came away very impressed. For what it's worth if you have any sway with Coachmen for customer wants, here are the things we liked: - build quality is outstanding (dovetail drawers, etc.) and the maple makes the interior look more expensive; the dimmable LEDs throughout mixed with the wood cabinets are REALLY well done and make for a great ambience. - For the first time, we did not feel that immediate sense of claustrophobia that we feel in a lot of other Class B's. The overhead cabinets with the glass inlays look great and really help to lighten the look of the interior, but we did wonder if they could be a couple inches deeper in depth to provide more storage without making it feel like a coffin? - I really like the induction - definitely don't want propane! But, I'd have liked to have seen a convection microwave versus the standard one. I really like the way bigger freezer, but the fridge - while up higher and easier to access - was not as big inside as I was expecting. It's not much bigger than other fridges I've seen, really. - The showermiser faucet it great. - The mobile connectivity - The swivable captain’s chairs were really nice, but the removable table top was a bit too small. Things we put on the wishlist: - the awning looks oddly stuck on top and sticks off the roof in the front...how about at least a piece of molding to round it off to the top of the van like you see on other campers? While the drawers/cabinets were very well made, the magnet catches that snap the drawers shut as you close them are an odd choice versus the positive locks or another system that ensures that the drawers don't open while driving curves. - We wished there was hot water in the outside shower - would be better for me when I want to shower outside and for our dog. The sprayer on the provided hose was made of laughably cheap plastic, too. - The lid on the back-left, driver's side water/utilities compartment needs something to hold it up when opened. - Because the fresh/blackwater tanks aren’t underneath to make it more four-season, that means that there's no storage under any of the seats and there's only a tiny amount of space behind the couch. This means that we'd have to bring a number of bins to carry all the extra stuff that one needs for camping (leveling blocks, hoses, cords, camping stove, etc.) and then just store them in the walkway while driving around. We thought about a tow-hitch storage box, but that'd then defeat the purpose of us getting the 22' camper that fits in regular parking spaces. If they put ladders and a rack on top, that'd work, but right now, there's an oddly limiting amount of storage inside. - Part of the reason that the inside doesn't feel claustrophobic is behind it's missing the overhead cabinet that's usually at the back of the van. It opens things up, but that means - again - less storage. I don't know where I'd put my double-burner camping stove without carrying additional storage bins? Maybe behind the trash can - not sure? - The shower is pretty large, but only if you leave the doors open to shower. The shower curtain is laughably useless, though, and there will definitely be water all over the floor of the camper. It would have been nice to have seen one of those curved shower curtain rods (to give me more room) and some sort of magnetized-at-the-bottom curtain that would ensure that the shower water would stay inside. - While there's no exhaust in the shower, I wouldn't plan on taking long hot showers in the camper, so that's kinda minor on my list. - I'd think I'd rather have windows with the "awning" style pop-outs (not sure what they're called) so that I can have them open while it's raining. The current sliding windows are large, though, and I can see them being useful for handing things in/out when needed, though. - I'm 6" tall and I'd have to sleep at a bit of angle to the middle to keep my feet from hanging off the end of the bed - I was pretty surprised by that my feet were all the way up against the cabinet with zero room to spare. I wasn’t expecting it to be as tight as it was as I’d read that it’s (supposedly) 76” in length. My wife is only 5' tall, so it would have great (for us) if that (tv) side was slightly shorter in length...I'd have like to then seen that space used for a slide-out, pantry cabinet in between the shower and fridge/freezer! - The sink was slightly small in diameter, I thought - though I like the regular faucet over the marine (easy to drain your water if you hit the handle wrong) version. - The tv bracket is out a touch far and will likely catch my elbow as I walk by. - The lagun table for the back was well-placed and can act as a bit more counterspace, but like the front table, it was a bit too small and there’s no way that four people can eat at that table. While it looked like our wishlist was way longer than what we liked, this camper is the closest we’ve come to finding what we think suits us. We might get it, but these are the things that we saw and would anticipate as items for what we wished it had. Really nice camper all-in-all!

Thank you!

Not fair to say ALL other van builders use the pink fiberglass insulation. You should use an advanced window tint and heat shield. This van also needs a exhaust vent in bathroom that also could be used as a vent for roof fan. Smart Plug is a good idea but there are no fairly priced accessories for it. External spray port is okay I want less stuff cut into side of van. I would prefer hot cold water in rear behind doors. TV Bracket is very mechanical looking and sticks out way to far. Great Van I love Mine

Thanks for watching and for the recommendations!

Lol, reps when they use hot words. Love the content. Reps should try harder at not sounding like all the other reps.

I will pass this along!

I thought my soul going to jump out of me with your outro 🤦🏼. .

Have they repositioned the LP tank yet so it doesn’t sit so low (lowest point under the van)? Been waiting for this to happen to consider picking one up.

Same location as previous years.

I hate it when reps sh*t talk their competition, with mostly lies. Most of these features are available in plenty of other vans. Just focus on discussing YOUR product instead of lying about your competition.

How big is the inverter on the AGM model?
