Check the slide stop. Mine jammed between the slide and the wood paneling, causing it to deform. Unfortunately, my pod wasn't under warranty.

1. I can't help you much on this one. Perhaps you should find other activities when in bed, and watch TV from a different location. 2. Some folks buy aftermarket mattresses. We have a memory foam topper on ours, and now our Rpod bed is the most comfortable bed we own. Seriously. Better than our high dollar pillow tops in our home. 4.
I do not believe Forest River makes black water hoses, but I will be on the lookout for that problem. Our 2013 177 is still not showing those signs. 5. Yep, we use our sink to store shampoo and soap, or tooth brushes. Sometimes I just like to wash my hands there or turn it on just to watch the water run. 6. Strange. Why do your couch cushions move? Perhaps you are not as much "average sized" as you think you are. Ours stay put without any Velcro. That would be annoying so I guess you just need lots more velcro. 7. What I hate about the air conditioner is when it is hot inside and it's NOT making any noise. Which means we are camped with no electricity and it's HOT inside the Rpod. I love the sound and feel of cold air coming into a hot camper. Don't worry, be happy. Sell it and find something that makes you Happy, if that is possible. Merry Christmas one and all!

I agree with codycountry. Sell it and find something that makes you happy. Life is way to short to not be happy.

Very interesting, funny and sarcastic (I can take it) replies. We owned another older camper and the quality was far superior but I guess when you go with lightweight you sacrifice.
I wasn't suggesting Forest River made the hoses, just that they included a cheap one. We are indeed average sized people and from what I've read others have had similar problems with the cushions. Oh, and Codycountry.....don't need any suggestions on what else to do in bed. Some of us like to watch tv in bed as a means of resting after other activities. 😉 |

Accessories like the battery, water and sewer hoses are supplied by the dealer.

The rpod is like a turducken. Not sure why, but I just cooked my first one (turducken, not rpod) and I really liked it. I like my rpod too.
Merry Christmas everyone! fred

Pods can be rather chewy if they are overcooked.
