We installed a 24 inch Miele Novotronics front loader and a GE "Stackable" dryer sitting on top Love! Love! Love! the washer. We've had it over a year now and it beats the GE washer we had before all to heck. Miele has a great reputation for quality products that last and require little...

Thanks for the detailed reply. Will put that particular idea to rest. Living with faded ugly end caps won't be the end of the world, just a disappointment. :( We've worked hard to keep our rig looking nice inside and out. Now it looks like we've neglected it. Ugh!

I know this has been addressed all over the place on this forum, this business of the end caps fading. Just wondering if anyone has successfully had their caps painted with the trailer sitting outside? We can't have it brought to a shop. Thanks!

Thanks for all your replies. This is the story: slide wasn't coming in all the way on one side and once that was corrected, no more rain water collecting on the top of the slide inside. This slide hasn't sat right from the beginning, but the repair guy kept saying it looked okay to him. New...

Just a quick note ... we removed ALL the flooring, carpet & lino, and put down commercial grade carpet tiles that we bought from Costco online. We think it looks great. Time consuming but easy enough to do. And the slide didn't require any edging because it's a finished edge and blends right...

Is this normal or is there something that can be done? After a rain water collects in the gap on the top of the slide inside (bedroom slide). And after a heavy rain water leaks from the bottom corner of the slide and wets the carpet. Is there some way to fix this? Or is it just "normal" ie...

Thanks for the advice. Much appreciated!

another thought on painting slide-out fascia I know, I know ... I have a bee in my bonnet!! But can the fascia trim be removed without damaging it? Then I could take them outside and paint them. But like I said, I won't even mention the idea to poor long-suffering Hubby until this doggone...

And that's not the only difference ... hee hee Anyway, I do normally love wood myself, but this dark very formal/traditional style just doesn't go (in my opinion) with the country feel (white wood blinds, mocha cabinets, cherry wood) There's a slide right next to the kitchen slide (in the...

What is the material used to make up the inside slide-out fascia trims? I'm thinking of painting them. They don't match anything else (dark brown kind of molded kind of, I don't know, Roman/Greek looking?) What are they made of? I'm sure they're paintable, pretty much everything is these...

Thanks for your suggestions so far. We're going with the carpet tiles - will let you know how everything turns out - a bigger job than originally thought - of course! :) Cheers, Lorna

We have a 2011 Big Country 3450TS. Some of the flooring is a wood effect Beauflor. If you're looking for a bit of extra flooring for some patch work, we just found some in an unexpected place when we were pulling up our old carpet to replace it with carpet tiles. Our floor plan has the wide...

We're reflooring all our floors including slides with carpet tiles (except bathroom). Typically, the prep work is a bigger job than I think the laying of the tiles will be, but we'll see. We're part way finished removing the old carpet and even the chipboard subfloor looks better than what the...

Just thought I'd add an update to this - service guy came and helped us out with the awning issue. He yanked on the awning fabric harder than we dared to (giving it a shake at the same time), slid the fabric over in its upper track a bit to the left (towards the back), and now it retracts...

Hi there! We're considering putting in Allure ULTRA vinyl plank flooring. I know several of you have put in Allure flooring. Was it the ULTRA or the lesser grade you used? Anyway, Home Depot guy said not to use this type of flooring in a RV (floating lock-together type) because the movement...
