Thank you for that write up. I just bought a 2020 28MKS and brought it home last night. I too was concerned with the water hookup and the need for another hose and y-pipe for the second grey water tank. After reading your write up I feel a little bit better about it.

Hi all,
wife and I just bought a 29TBS on Monday, brought it home and filling it up with all the usual stuff
The location of the Jensen stereo is unusable except from the passenger side of the "master bedroom" as it faces forwards rather than towards any of the seating. We love having all the storage and counter space in the RV, teenage daughter loves having a room of her own. Not sure how we are going do deal with / organize the front storage yet for power cable, water, etc.
Can't wait to take it out on it's shakedown trip.2019 Ram Rebel

Transcend 265BH
We are considering the 265BH and as first time RV purchasers, we are looking for consumer reviews for guidance and reassurance. Seeing you have had your rig for a time now, are you still happy with the GD Transend?
Living in Ontario Canada I have concerns with the build of the flooring as well as the stick and tin construction. We do realize this is considered an entry level rig and there are some trim level options we will no going to have available.
Thanks in advance for any advice and / or guidance review.

Transcend Video Tour
Hi All,
I'm glad to be part of this Transcend community and having a place to learn from everyone. We continue to enjoy our Transcend. Like so many others, we haven't been able to camp this spring. However, I'm looking forward to getting out again soon.
Judy and I thought it might be helpful to create a video tour so that you can get a better sense of what a Grand Design Transcend camper is like. You can find it on YouTube at: https://youtu.be/Dsxspt5SkbI and we added it our review post at: https://traveltrailsail.com/grand-de...-28mks-review/
Hope you find it helpful.

We have had the 29TBS since spring 2019 and love the thing. We purchased it from Outdoor Travel in Hamilton.
We have only had a few minor issues (screen door latch, interior trim fell off and seam popped in dinette pillow).
I spent about 5 weeks in the trailer last summer and so far 2 weeks this year.
The major upgrade I have done is adding the Mor Ryder Solid step. Daughter kept falling off rickety stairs so I installed the solid steps.
The outdoor kitchen shelf is only 1/8" ply wood which wouldn't hold anything up, so I installed some bracing to reinforce it.
We also put a memory foam topper on the mattress.
Some other upgrades I am considering are adding JT Strong arms to the stabilizers and getting the BAL hide a spare to get the spare tire off the back.

I'll save you the trouble, buy something else. I've had 2 Transcends, both were garbage.

Well the second one started within a week of taking possession. Its been a slough of electrical issues, overheating issues, and of course, more plumbing and leaking issues. It's a list.

Our 2021 Transcend 245RL was purchased in October. We’ve had it out twice and here’s the problems we’ve had.
1. On our first trip, we noticed water leaking from under the shower. The plumbing fittings underneath he shower (accessible via the bottom drawer in the bedroom) needed to be tightened. Minor fix.
2. We opened to slide out window in the bedroom which is an emergency exit. (Comment - the 245RL has an exterior door in the bedroom. Why does it need an emergency window exit?) After opening the window slide out, the screws securing the slide-out lever came loose. I was unable to reattach the screws at the park and had to duct tape the window from the outside until we got home. Relatively simple fix by replacing the screws with a screws and bolts.
3. However, the emergency exit window has a screen that attaches with 2 flexible tabs on each of the 4 sides. The screen came off on our last trip and I cannot put it back. It appears that all tabs have to be perfectly aligned before it is inserted into the frame. If it’s not perfectly aligned or inserted on side first and then on the other, it will not snap in and lay flat in the frame. Still haven’t figured out how to replace the screen.
4. On our second trip we saw water leaking from under the sink. The fittings for the sink drain needed to be tightened. Simple fix.
We haven’t used the AC yet to know how it will cool in a warm climate. Other than that, we’ve been happy. The solar panel was installed and we have the 12V refrig. The layout is nice and the trailer is a manageable length for towing."TEXAS, the greatest Nation that became a State"
