Another 21BHE owner here
Greetings all, I am Jim, and have been lurking for a while and thought I would say Hi.
We (Wife and 2 boys) purchased our 21BHE back in June, and have been camping 4 weekends already, with 2 more scheduled at a minimum. If anyone has any questions about any aspects of the trailer, I'd be happy to chime in.
When we made the deal, we had the dealer add a Fan Tastic fan in place of the factory main vent fan, and a few other small things, but it was mostly ready to go as it sat on the lot. I did replace the switch for the outside LED strip
with a dimmer as the light was too bright for us, but not for the mosquitoes it seems.2019 F350 6.7L PS SRW CCSB Platinum

Welcome to the forum. Since you've been here for awhile and are already a site sponsor there's not too much to say. Enjoy making memories w/your family in that 21BHE!

I’m actually in the market for the Imagine 21BHE and there happens to be an RV show coming up in which I’m hoping will result in a purchase. Anyway, I was just wondering if you had any further thoughts about it (likes/dislikes), things that you wish were different...
Also what size hitch ball is needed for towing (manual just says 2” or 2 5/16” depending on floor plan)?
Thanks
Mike

Hello Mike, welcome to the forum. We have been getting some good use out of the 21BHE this summer, and like it so much that we are trading it in. That may sound bad, so let me re-phrase it. We like camping and have had such good luck with it that we are going bigger. The only thing that was a problem for us was the mattress in the murphy bed. We solved that by swapping in a Tuft and Needle, but now it doesn't fold up. This was a compromise we took, but to each their own. It will fold up with a thin foam topper. Mechanically, it is super sound, and we have not had a problem with any of the build or the 3rd party components. Everything just worked from day 1.
The ball is a 2 5/16 for this model. Where are you located? We would consider a straight sale for cash and help us both out (or anyone else interested for that matter).

Thank you, glad to hear your enjoying camping so much that your upgrading already. I’m in Upstate NY, Syracuse area.
I’m looking forward to actually getting into and testing out the trailer, as it’s only been pictures and YouTube videos till this point. I’ve heard several people say the samething about the bed, so I’ll see how it goes, thanks again.
Mike

The fold in the mattress was painful for us after a few nights. We bought a real mattress for it and that solved the sleeping problem until we upgraded. It also meant we could not fold the bed up easily though.
