    Kitchen sinks

    Wow John, I only commented on the size of the sinks because I like to use a dishpan.:eek: The first comment about the sink size was back in January 2007 so I am at a loss why you are upset. Please know that I never disparged Heartland or Sundance. Husband and I toured the factory with you and...

    Where to complain about Mission tires

    Here is a link for all those with defective Mission tires to complain. Maybe the government will take action if we all start complaining about the China Bombs that Nankang is sending to us. I for one am tired of all this China krap that they send us! Let's do it people and get the danger off the...

    NO Electric to Sundance

    Thanks John and Jim, I'll have my dear hubby do these checks. Yes we did use the electric heater, but I'm sure we turned it off before we drained the water storage, not even sure if water heater was drained. Will keep you informed of the outcome. Thanks, LIZ

    NO Electric to Sundance

    Just returned from an 800 mile trip to Chicago and back. Our electric worked just fine at the campground. Now when putting away the 5er in the pole barn, we can't get any electric power. At first thought it was a bad reducer plug, but still no power with a new plug. Keeps tripping the circut...

    Mattress is too hard!

    I have a Memory foam topper that is incased in a quilted pillowtop that is on the queen bed in the Sundance 2900MK. Just enough softness for us. Just wondering what anyone has done for the terrible mattress in the sleeper sofa, a cut down to fit size memory foam topper hardly improves the sofa...

    Anyone with a 2500RS

    We owned a 2005 Keystone Laredo 2900GS for only 2 years before trading for our 08 Sundance 2900MK. We looked at the Wildcat and thought the Laredo was a better unit. Sad to say, we were wrong. The Sundance is a far superior product and better built than the Keystone products. Really happy with...

    Sundance Dealer Concerns

    Love our Sundance 2900MK Just got back from a 7 week rustic camping/fishing trip in the Hiawatha National Forest in upper Michigan. Our 08 Sundance 2900MK was a pleasure to camp in. With the large holding tanks and water capacity, we didn't need much. Only minor issue with the microwave...

    Microwave steaming

    Scott, Would it be possible to ship a replacement for my Sylvania microwave in my '08 2900MK? The micro steams up badly and there is no venting. I see steam between the door glasses that can not be wiped away. That would indicate to me a leak in the door seals. That might be a potential danger I...

    Sundance 2700RL

    We have the 08 Sundance 2900MK. When the slides are fully in it goes thunk thunk thunk. At that point I release the switch. Our former 5er, a Laredo did the same thing. I wouldn't worry about it, it just means it is fully in and to release the switch.

    Has anyone got a DirectTV sat. system?

    We are ordering a DirectTV satelite system to be installed in our Sundance. We found their ad in Trailer Life magazine for a free RV receiver, and tripod and also a home install. Has anyone ordered and used this system in your rig. So far the home unit has arrived but not the gear for the rv. I...

    Why are the awnings so small?

    Our Sundance 2900MK slides (3) fit just fine and are tight. Had torrential rain for 2 days down in KY and when the slides were retracted in, not any water on top. Very happy with fit.

    Why are the awnings so small?

    We also were told we couldn't order Fantastic fans from the factory. Our dealer installed two fans in our 08 Sundance 2900MK, 1 in the bedroom and 1 over the kitchen sink. They work great, but they had to catch the wiring from the lights in the bedroom. I think the kitchen was pre wired for the...

    Poll: Overall Dealership Experience

    Petoskey RV USA, Petoskey, MI - 5 I would rate our dealer, Petoskey RV USA as 5 Star. They gave us a great price on an 08 Sundance 2900mk and a fair trade. They ordered our unit and it came in promptly as ordered and they did the dealer extras as ordered. A minor problem before our trip to NC...

    2900MK Table between the back 2 chairs

    The small table is an option, I believe. We also have an 08 2900mk and I bought a really nice table at Bed Bath and Beyond. It really is a bath cabinet that hangs on the wall, but it is very stable with a wide top and bottom with sliding doors and a shelf. We have it between the chairs, and it...

    Sundance countertop extension

    Here is the countertop extension my husband made for our 08 Sundance 2900MK. It is made of ash wood, stained pecan, 5 coats of satin urathane varnish. The hardware was purchased from Rockler and painted brown with Rustoleum. I think he did a great job, and I will put my wastebasket under the...

    Kitchen sinks 2900MK

    Kitchen sinks My husband ground down both sink covers and now they fit flat. Lucky that he has a really nice wood shop at home. I can't figure out why the lids don't fit to the sinks. The ones I saw at the dealer didn't fit either. I will try to take a picture of the countertop extension that...

    Size of Hide-a-Bed?

    Hide a bed sheets I too am trying to figure out the sheet size. We just got an 08 Sundance. I ordered the sofabed sheet set that they advertised in Brylane Home in a double bed. When it arrived it was way too big and I will be sending it back. My Memory foam topper in double size fits. I think...

    prospective buyer of sundance

    Sundance 2900MK :D We just took delivery of our 2008 Sundance 2900MK this week. I think you will be very happy with it. We also considered the 2900RK because of all the counter space. My husband liked the MK better, but he doesn't do the cooking. I do have a few issues about the design. First...

    Kitchen sinks 2900MK

    Why are the kitchen sinks so small? I thought they were supposed to be 60/40, and my new 08 has small square ones that the sink cover lids don't even fit. I can't even get an RV dishpan in one. My Sundance is at the dealer for delivery on 3/16 , and I noticed this when we went in for a sneak...

    Kitchen sinks

    I wish the kitchen sinks were the 60/40 instead of the small square double sinks. I can not fit even an RV dishpan into them. What happend to the standard ones? Also bring back the counter extensions. My husband has to make one for me.

    First trip with our Sundance

    Congrats on your new Sundance, I hope you have many happy trips! We have a new 08 Sundance 2900MK coming next week 3-16. It is already at the dealer, and I was wondering if your trailer towed level or was the truck bed higher than the pin. We have an 05 Ram 2500 diesel and I was hoping we would...

    We are taking delivery of our 2008 Sundance 2900MK next week. I too wanted a counter top extension. My handy husband is in the process of making me one from ash wood, than he will seal the wood. We are very excited. I do wish the sink was larger, it is not a 60/40 like the flyer. Do you have a...
