I can see why the BH in the back are a big draw for folks with lots of little ones. We bought our BH for the big outside storage space below the bunks. very carefully, we took out the top bunk and just have one queen in the back with double mattress. very comfortable for when we bring another couple or one of our grown kids.
all in all, we are very happy with our reflection. have had some warranty issues, but they have been great with the dealership has been awesome working with us.

We ordered our 2019 28BH on October 22, 2018. According to the dealer the GD factory is saying it will be built on January 14, 2019. I hope to have it by the end of January or very early in February.

Kevin,
is yours with the u-shape dinette or the couch with the table?

We ordered the 78" theater couch with the folding table. The folding table top matches the counter top in the kitchen.

I'm no big fan of U-dinettes (which I have). I think the couch would work better for us 90% of the time. I'll have to investigate the cost and DW's interest in this as a modification.

It took us 9 months to find a 28BH with a 78" theater couch at a dealer to look at. It felt like we had found a unicorn. There's just me, the DW, 9 year old son and two 20 pound dogs so the three butt theater couch setup worked perfect. The dealer unit did not have dual pane windows so we passed on it and decided to order exactly what we wanted. Eventually we will probably remove the tri-fold sofa and put in a drop leaf table and chairs set.
Our son has already claimed the top bunk so the dog kennels will take up residency on the bottom bunk. It will be nice not tripping over the kennels on the floor. I almost went ********** over elbows several times in our old trailer trying to get around the kennels.
Our first big trip with the 28BH will be this coming summer. We are taking an almost 3 week trip to Custer, SD and the Black Hills area. It's time to see some big stone heads.

Congratulations on your 28BH! That is beautiful! I sure wish I had one of those instead of the Forest River 296BHBS that we had. It was so uncomfortable. Just wanted to say I think y'all are very brave...3 kidos under the age of 4...wow! They will enjoy all of your new adventures. Cheers!

I'm going to show some love for the U-shaped dinette. It was actually another reason we went with the 28BH. We have two daughters ages 7 and 5 and we eat breakfast every day at that table. My girls play their games and do crafts at the table as well on those rainy days they can't be outside. We bought a storage ottoman and use that for additional seating at the table if needed. The table top comes off easy and sits between the dinette and the fridge if we want a little more room around the dinette. The 78" couch does look comfy but I'm not sure a "tv tray" style table would work well for my kids. Plus I utilize all that space below the dinette for storage. You lose that with the couch. As far as comfort is concerned, I wish I would have traded the tri-fold sofa for the theater seats with heat and massage. I don't need another bed so the recliners in that spot would be nice. I know everyone has to do what's best for them but thought I'd give a shout out to the dinette.

We just went camping and I gave this some additional thought. I guess if I could modify the design I'd probably go with a standard booth dinette (not a U), an 8 CFT fridge, and possibly a thin vertical storage cabinet or two in the extra space. Reclining seats instead of the sofa would be very nice.
