Hi All,
First let me say that we are extremely pleased and proud of our 2014 3570RS Bighorn. Heartland makes the best 5th wheels on the market - Period. No other manufacturer has thought out all the little details that make RV Living really Easy and Fun!
Here are four ideas to make them even better:
1) The microwave vent can only be opened and closed from the outside, and in in the case of our unit, only by dragging out a ladder so that you can reach it - a pole or broom stick will simply not get the job done. Would be nice if this could be opened and closed from the inside.
2) Heartland must have hired the same electrical engineer that designed the 12 homes that we have purchased over the years (we moved around a lot). When it comes to the kitchen, there are simply not enough circuits. I suggest one 20 (possibly 15) amp for the fridge, one 20 amp for the microwave, one 20 amp for the outlets in the kitchen area for all the "Devices" that one may want to hook up - thought, not all at the same time, and one 20 amp circuit for the entertainment outlets.
3) Our "Country Rest Pillow Top - M15 332" mattress failed after about six weeks of use. The two body depressions formed where we sleep make it feel like we are sleeping in Death Valley. I know that no mattress will please everyone, but I think a better choice could be made.
4) And I know, this one is a bit pickey. The 3570 does not have a coat closet, but does have coat hooks on the street side of the unit, directly above the stairs. The problem is that the hand rail is also on the street side. This means it is covered with coats all the time (we camp in the spring and fall). Would not locating it to the opposite side be a better option? I know that the "inside" wall is not a robust as the outside wall on the street side, but I installed a second railing and it is working out just fine (and we really need its support). - Just a thought!
