Needs a half bath also! Outside kitchen needs a small refrigerator; a little sink plumbed to water would be lovely too. You were right-an actually different floorplan. Wood color in kitchen was great. We love the hidden office; maybe an option for one side of the hidden office could be a Murphy bed! Thanks for showing this!!
Yeah or I was thinking this is a good place for a pack n play - like nursery when grand babies come so everyone doesn’t have to be quite so quiet nor trip over it right where everyone is…
Absolutely love the front office! It is awesome how the two desks let you set up the two different work systems, or a computer and a hobby area. It is also awesome to hear that the larger stove is starting to become standard.
This floor plan would be perfect for me. So love the layout of the kitchen and of course the office. My complements to everyone involved in the making of this very inviting rig.
This floor plan looks awesome for a working couple on the road! As someone who still has small children, I'd love to see the office space transformed into sleeping space. I love front living room floorplans, but they don't offer a "bunk" room and I would have to resort to pulling couches out every night. I'm not sure if others feel the same, but I would be a buyer for a front living "bunk" model.
I have never ever been so impressed by an RV in my life, beautiful, functional, AND an office you can work in! This is serious perfection! There aren’t enough ⭐️’s to give this! ❤
I love that office hidden behind the door. That would be so nice to have all your papers spread out and be able to just close the door so you don't see the mess. Children or nosy visitors won't be in your business and you can easily work while on the road.
This acknowledges a shift in the audience of RV/5th wheel buyers - the remote worker, and is one of the best I've see so far. There are a subset of people working remotely that need.. or eve have to have ... privacy and quiet for Audio or Video calls. I'm curious how much sound deadening there is, given the TV is mounted on the back side of the door from the POV of someone working in the office. From my own perspective working from home/remote for the last 7 years, the office room is only a 3 out 5 at best. It reflects older RV design and needs a refinement pass. For example: make the side desktops flush with the front desktop to improve the ability to have dual monitors or a large monitor. It needs better / more power outlets (Surge Protection? UPS hook up?). It needs cord cutouts holes in the desktops. Add under-mount trays in back for cords, power adapters, etc (can easily add those), and a better configuration of shelves & drawers (why no drawer underneath the work areas? Desktop PCs are often put under the desk, but they would block legs on this setup. Where would you put a small printer/scanner/MFC? How to run cables to it? Add Whiteboards and/or cork boards? where goes any cameras, Microphones, and lights for making videos? How do you secure monitors and other equipment for travel? I could go on for a hour. As a potential customer of age and income to buy this who is looking to put the "remote" into 'working remote', Riverstone might be well served to interview people who are it's most likely customers, from programmers to medical support staff who need privacy for HIPPA reasons, as to all the things, big and small, that make their current workspaces work for them. A revised design might not add much cost, but could up the appeal from "good first try" to "OMG! this is a aspirational excellence!"
Very nice layout. That front office is great as so many couples work remotely now. The two desks would be perfect for us. And … we got to see a glimpse of JD 🙂
Simply beautiful to look at. Not sure about the office up front. The TV moving while someone is watching so the front office can be used? More important to me is the total lack of counter space in the kitchen. No center island to make room for the very nice eat-in table area…. By the time I put the coffee maker out, my counter space is completely used up ☹️. This is a full-time rig and I spend a fair amount of time in my kitchen. Just not sure where you would prepare meals, etc. Bedroom is lovely! Bath is great. Always nice to see new designs. THANKS FOR ALL YOU DO! APPRECIATE YOUR TIME.
We placed an order for this floorplan on Thursday after seeing it in Hershey. The floorplan isn't perfect, but it's axing how much storage area they packed in, and I'm excited to put my wife's loud work conversations behind a door!
Beautiful! Very nice, you can see the quality. The office is a really cool idea! I see in some of the comments that some people are wanting a half bath but if I had to choose between that and the hidden office I would pick the office. Great video, thanks!😊
Man I really love that floor plan. I really love the riverstone all together. Even with that front office, there’s still enough room for my son and his family to camp in the living room
Love this floor plan and the color aesthetic they chose. River stone has been one of my favorites for years now and looks like they’ll continue to be! Thanks as always for these videos. Most of us can’t see these beauties in person and this scratches that itch!
Super nice rig but very heavy, a one ton dully is an absolute must have but I spoke with a man that had this rig and he says his one ton dully ford is always just about maxed out pulling it.
A half bath would be a must. The other thing would be turned that room into a bunk room that would sleep at least five people. And put a half bath in there to.
Nice to see pull out drawers for the bathroom cabinets to reach things in the back area. Outdoor cooking nice to have a fridge to a sink. Nice lots of storage for the the underneath area.
The pass through door in the office is intended for the locking of the door,so that you can't get locked inside the office....its basically for safety. ..
That would be awesome is someone would make that as a bunk house instead of an office I love front living room fifth wheels but with 2 young kids traditional front living plans don’t work for me
Would love to see more floorplans with functional office areas. And as great as this looks, some smaller fifth-wheels/trailers would be awesome to see.
I'm still waiting for a 5th wheel with a front living room and "Mid Bunk" That would be absolutely revolutionary in the fifth wheel architectural design, arguably a 3 private sleeping area fifth wheel.
Other than installing the Fisher Paykel dishwasher at floor level (big mistake) the rest of the 5th wheel is genius. It front office is a dream as is the rest of the layout.
Wow, this unit has the best of everything. I like the hidden office, aside from disrupting the family while they're watching TV so you can come out. Outside kitchen needs a fridge and a sink for cleaning fish, why don't more have a sink? I like a separate grill away from the RV. Don't need the cooktop, you have that gorgeous stove / oven / micro just steps away inside. Never been a fan of 2 sets of steps inside, up to the living room, up to the bath & bedroom. Otherwise a gorgeous RV. How much $$$? Thanks JD.
Really love this! But my SRW F350 can’t do this much. First manufacturer to do a hideaway front cap office and front living in a 2 axle low profile fifth wheel can take my money!
Everything is beautiful! The hidden room could be for anything. I do wonder why the dishwasher was installed low to the floor instead of under the counter as some RVs do. So much bending over. I also always wonder about the W/D set up. Why are there never the type of stackables that are attached to each other and the washer has a top loading lid? Maybe the manufacturers and designers expect only strong and flexible purchasers.
I’m living I’m river stone full time and can say that they don’t hold up well, the wall insulation has settled in many area’s causing extensive heat intrusion, the roof is garbage, it rides on a lippert Frame that’s having pin box issues and all that wood cabinetry doesn’t like any water getting on it because it will permanently stain it. They are better than most but they are still put together carelessly.
Would be nice to see built in shelves or something in the front office where the front cap is. There seems to be wasted space maybe? As the window is somewhat deep so I don't know what else is in that space.
I agree that the front office is super super cool... However, I think the layout of that front office would have been much better if they would have put the cabinets along the sides and the desk along the front cap. I work in IT and all of our users now at my company who spend a lot of time in front of their computer all want multiple monitors even when they're working remote. Heck many of those users even want 3 monitors. Those side desks don't offer much room for multiple monitors and don't provide much desk space in front of you. A desk along full length of the front cap would have been way way better for people who want a serious office.
We absolutely love this floorplan, it's everything we have been looking for and with the best manufacturing! Everyone says Riverstone is THE best! We love more of the white cabinets, but this isn't bad --just not our first pick and likely not the one we'll be decor wise. Curious about the tanks, I'm finding limited and conflicting info -- do you know the sizes for fresh water, gray and black tanks? I saw online one said 48 gallons fresh which can't be right!? That's so tiny! Thanks for the awesome insight on this video, look forward to more!
I bought a Riverstone and after 18 months everything in it was falling apart despite only having one person living in it and babying it / not moving it. And Forest River made getting anything fixed a drawn out nightmare. So while they look nice, buyer beware.
Really nice unit for a single work-from-home person or a couple who share sleeping space, but really wouldn't work for me, despite loving the dedicated/private front office with great windows. I'm planning to be traveling with my sister and so really want a second 1/2 bath as well as 2nd private sleeping area AND dedicated/private office space, something I can really only see happening with a toy hauler...the rear garage space is just SOOO flexible (I also plan to garage a small "get-around" car on travel days). Color scheme in the unit reviewed, meh. Also saw what looked like a couple of floor heat registers, which is a deal-breaker for me, although I love how the full water manifolds are showing up in more RVs these days.
With the TV hanging on the door of the office, I wonder how quiet it would be in the office if someone is watching TV in the living room while I'm trying to work in the office.
Blows my mind that I’m this year we can’t build a RV that works. Like really oh look at this window shade. WHAT? I don’t give a sh@t Let’s put a tv in a spot that only works for two people. So disappointed that manufacturers can’t figure out what people need😊
