Hello - Event Date: 09 Dec 2016

I also find the quality and workmanship lacking.  I also am handy with wood so many can be fixed.  BUT, we should not have to rebuild it, they should care a little for the camper using it.  Lot of spaces that can be used that they sloppy hung wires across and left building trash in many hidden places.  Driving screws with a power tool below service and sometimes all the way through the panel.  I hope some day they get the same thing done to them,

Welcome to the group! 

Originally posted by tjaquish Don't get me wrong about my complaints. We still like the R-Pod. It's just after looking at some other makes where a lot of care was used trimming the RV out, little things start to show up. We looked at some Lance trailers and were very impressed with the cabinetry. They were also a lot more money!

Small inexpensive trailers all use this style of construction. To compare the pod to a Lance, Airstream, or Oliver etc... apples to moon rocks.

Unfortunately, the apron under the fridge is poorly designed. Any little thing that bumps it exacerbates the poor design and it falls off. I used anchors in the aluminum frame. Some have used hinges. I would like to use hinges, but would want one that allows the apron to swing both ways. I recently read where one person used industrial strength Velcro. That might work okay also.
There were other fit and finish items that, like you, I repaired myself. One was the trim strip under the dinette, which was not fastened very well. Others were drawer alignment and slides in the kitchen. Otherwise, there have been issues where sealing around the kitchen window was not done very well and other areas where sealing around screws was not done well as shown by rust on the screw threads (spoiler and porch light fixture). Overall though, I have been very pleased with our R-Pod.
