Overall we're pretty pleased with the 24R. There are drawbacks to that model, but also, pluses.
The removable pedestal table is not idea for "dinning" at least not with the recliner lounge. The seating sits way back, very comfortably, but this puts you a long way from the table. To eat off of the table you have to sit on the front edge of your seat. So, what's more likely is you pick up your plate and hold it in your lap so that you can sit back.
Our unit came with attachments in the arms of the recliner to affix small side tables which we use instead. NOTE: they have discontinued this in the recliner. I doubt they can be a retrofit if your recliner doesn't have the attachments built into the armrest of the chair.
So, far the Jabsco toilet has been fine. I have some issues with it though. It's very loud and has a plastic seat. I have checked their website and they do make a "super quiet" version, but I haven't checked to see if it's a direct replacement or not.
The lack of pantry space is an issue. We use the cabinets over the recliners. But this lack of space is a recurring theme. Because Winnebago used a combo LP/Induction cook top there is next to no counter space. There really should only be one induction cooktop or perhaps two but the LP cooktop takes up LOTS of space. A dual induction unit would at least provide a flat surface. We've purchased a raised cutting board to go over the propane cooktop.
The twin beds have been good. We put the center cushions in place once to see what it was like and it was bigger than a king bed - but difficult to get into or out of. So, we currently put the largest cushion in our attic at home and have the smaller cushion between the two twins with a board on top to use as a bedstand. We may do some customizing there to add more capability perhaps some storage.
There's one disappointment with the cabinets in the bedroom. The cabinets are not flat inside. There is a rather large metal box at the back of the cabinets. It's purpose is to accommodate the top of the shades. But for some reason they made it 3X the size that's really needed. I'll attach a photo.
Also, the two cabinets at the foot of the twin beds that are intended for hang up clothes are pretty useless for hang up clothes. They are too short. The clothes hang so low the bottom 1/3rd are bunched up on the bottom of the cabinet. We may just build some shelves in there for shoes and clothes. We don't need much in the way of hang up space.
I see you have the 24D - that would be the only other model I'd be interested in - bigger kitchen, the pantry, larger bathroom. Hang up Closet. BUT, I'd hate to give up the gear garage, it's fantastic.
Each model has pluses and minuses. We do love the "two rooms" of the 24R and that's why we choose it.
Here's the cabinet photo. They don't look that intrusive but the bottom of the cabinet is only 10" deep and these boxes take up 3 1/2" of that leaving 6 1/2" of flat surface at the bottom. And the cabinet is 12" tall but the box takes up 3 1/2" of that height, too. NOTE: I saw a video of the 2026 24D and it had a much smaller box in the cabinets. I'm not sure if this is a running change on other models, too. Or just on the 24D.
