Thank you PJ for another great review of the RPOD models. My husband and I purchased the RPOD 195 in August from a dealer in Ohio (we are from the East coast) , the 196 model was not available at the time. We upgraded from the RPod 177 and find the 195 spacious for us and our dog. We our not full time RV travelers, therefore, there is more than enough storage for our clothes and camping necessities. We love the dry bath , it’s very easy getting in and out of the walk around bed, love the vacuum. The kitchen counter space is sufficient for meal preparation; we cook outdoors on a camp stove and I use the dinette table if more space is needed. RPod 195 also provides an extra table for outdoor use. The only negative comment is that it’s awkward for 4 people to sit at the dinette table because of the table leg configuration . Our solution is to use a smaller table with different leg support. I don’t find the low placement of the microwave any different from that of a conventional home oven. When choosing between the 196 and 195 models, the consumer has to decide between the couch seating and pocket door of 196 vs wrap around dinette and hinged bathroom door of the 195.

One of the best layouts I've ever seen regardless of size.

Now this is impressive! A real refrigerator, a freezer! In floor vacuum, oven! Oh ya, this is way better than the truck camper if your in your 50’s. Love drawers in the kitchen, too! What a great design for a long weekender. You are outside most of the time, so hope awnings are possible and a grill??? Please say there is under the bed storage for clothes and shoes? It is tiny, but a step up from the truck camper. I’m not familiar with camper potties, do they get smelly like the boat heads do? Major pet peeve. The boat I’ve traveled on was spotless but, there were other issues involved in flushing. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Congratulations to whomever designed this small camper! LOVE THE GRILL!

Love that they are thinking if our fur children :-). So many if us have companion pets these days

My God, 7 feet more makes a big difference. Love the big banquet! Great kitchen! But needs a pullout above water heater. Nice oven, you can get a small turkey in there.

She makes it look so easy to put that bag in there but believe me it's not that easy this woman is excellent at doing everything she does such a nice job of showing these trailers

This has to be one of the best little low cost travel trailers out it gives you everything in a small package easy tow with a 2020 Ford Escape Titanium 2 camp chairs & camp table best setup for low cost

Loving the new floor plan.

A great floor plan and video! PJ is the best tour guide! Thank you 😊

It’s a great floor plan if you don’t mind sitting on the couch and staring directly into the bathroom. Check out the 202 which has an entertainment center and fireplace next to windows that you will be looking at instead. 😉

A converter doesn't convert 12v into 110v AC, it converts 110v AC into 12v. An INVERTER converts 12v battery power into 110v AC. Very few RVs come equipped with an inverter.

Future point of failure: the unguarded connections for stuff under the deck. Design a cover or provide a tough bag to protect them from the debris thrown by the tires. You don't want these connections to get leaky.

Great tour! Very informative.

Thank you. Great features, like the solar option.

Emergency exit incase of fire?? Switch for slide out/ view from inside of slideout; great job as usual...very smooth.....knows the product. Weight? Tires look a bit small.

I wished it had the length on the screen so you can see if it if you missed it at the beginning I would like to know on all of them. Please place it on the screen so we will know ! Thank you,

I’d prefer recliners instead of jack knife couch . Is thatAn option?

Do not let the children play with the vacuum do you will lose your cat, LOL a little humor always goes well

Someone who does the dirty deed, don't like the two separate drains. Should be dual axle, have two propane tanks for the price of those things.

If this was a Geo Pro I would go buy one tomorrow. I wonder if the Geo Pro will eventually have a walk around queen and a 2 door fridge freezer. All they need to do is make the 19fbs 2 feet longer. I guess it would be called a 21 fbs.

I would like plywood in that storage space under the bed it might take up a little space but it would be well worth it. osb board would work aslo.

Love it!!

You look great!

Would like to see a murphy bed and a small dinette in the slide instead.

you need to edit the converter function

Love your cavans but hate the leather sofa. I think cloth sofa's are much Comfortable to sleep on.

Vi.bonitoooo.gostou!!🤩🤩🤩🤩🤟

Wife sitting on couch watching tv eating diner: honey diner is ready. Husband sitting on toilet: looks good from here just let me wipe. I’d rather see the kitchen across from sofa then the bathroom

IT IS THE best one i have seen yet. did i miss a microwave/

Very thorough and helpful tour, PJ! We are wondering if Forest River allows the buyer to select the couch from the 195 instead?

Drinking game...everytime she says I love....in any video..

My wife and I are in love. That looks like a nice set up. What is the price point?

It would be nice if you could mention the price during your presentation

Are there no reading lights for the bed? How about the sofa? Doed the TV play DVD's? Thanks and Cheers! Jon

The couch faces the toilet. Why is that good?

This looks the same as the 195, but with the addition of a vacuum and a different sofa.

Is an outside grill an option? I've seen other reviews show it in the front pass through storage. If so, how much is that option?

Can my 2006 GMC Envoy SLT tow this R-POD 196?

👍

Storage is always an issue.

Is the hood river edition the same MSRP as the regular model?

Haha, headphone warning next time you use that vacuum! 😆

How much???

A the price si alwais important please

Are twin beds and option with this model

Is the underbelly enclosed?

Lots of great features until we get to the dual dump pipes. That's twice as much poop as I wanna deal with.

So the only difference between this and the 195 is the couch ?

Brent Porter here from Princess Craft. I'll do my best to answer your live questions. I'll be on for approx 10 minutes after the video.

Nice review, but would like reading lights above bed, theres no counter space if your using stove top and sink, which I always use when cooking, my back aches just looking at having to make that bed to look nice and neat, why never a full size bed in campers so you have more room on each side?? Lastly bathroom is great except that shower door/curtain unless it comes off how would you ever clean it?? Thank You!

Mungus

You're all over the place.

Price ?

Is there a shower

Pric

The different wood color for the pantry door is ugly

Why not just sweep it out the door?

No table to eat in doors ??

The coat rack is a bit to close to controls. Easy for a child to touch or someone accidentally having a big coat with hood to hit switch.

I like a camper with a stove in it not a conventional oven because of your dry camping how the heck do you supposed to use it when he got to carry a generator with you they make Camp is terrible today I don't understand it there's not enough Windows on it or nothing

We didn't need a five minute illustration on how to change the vacuum bag we got the idea that could've been reduced down to like one minute

The microwave down so low would be a deal breaker.

I am tired to look vídeos about RV, because after seen that never give a price, and I am consider that I was lost my time. Thank.

I claimed it in Jesus name amen

Sofa in front of the bathroom?? sitting down watching tv while hearing someone relieving themselves is rather unpleasant. Tires are small trailer too low to the ground. Like everything else.

Too much talking about same thing.

PJ just "loves" everything in every trailer so much that I am sick of watching Princess Craft videos. She talks to much. Just get to the point!
