    Just mine, and if not, why?

    I have a 2017 Reflection 315RLTS which I have been living in for 2 years. One thing that has really puzzled and annoyed me is that there is no outside electrical outlet near the steps, or any place outside near the door. Did they just forget to put one on mine, or was it just not done on this model, and for heaven's sake, WHY NOT?

    On our 2016 Reflection, there was an outlet just inside the basement (on the back wall) on the passenger side of the trailer - and a port for an extension cord in the bottom of the plastic trough on that side. Does yours have that?

    They don't have outlets on the outside of the rigs, as far as I know. On our rig, there are outlets inside the front storage bays, with a place to run a cord in.

    Yep. My 2020 is the same way. Interesting though they added a cable connection for outdoor TV, (curbside back) but no plug to run it...lol

    Our 303 has an outlet on each side of the pass-through basement compartment, as well as another outlet on the dining/recliner slide, near the rear of the curb side. I’ve never looked for an outlet on any other model, I just know that at least our 303 has one on the outside.

    It’s under cover (and snow) right now, so I can’t see it but, I believe that there may also be a TV hookup there as well.

    Not sure I'd want one near the steps or near the front door. Tripping hazard?

    We have an outlet by the front door on our Solitude 310. When we use it, it's either with an induction cooktop on a small table right under the outlet (no cord running anywhere) or an extension cord running behind the stairs to the area underneath the rear awning. No safety hazard either way.

    Most RV campground posts have an additional 25 amp outlet on them, you can run an extension cord from there. My Momentum has an outlet near the door, not a tripping hazard.

    All trailers should have an outlet on the outside on the camp side. I've set up a TV outside for football using a small folding table to set the TV on. Plugged my Sat dish rec and TV into the outside plug. Beats having to run extension cords.

    What second chance said on our old reflection. But even worse, they put an outside plug on our new Solitude right behind the door. So when you plug into it the door will not stay open/contact on the magnets. And if the door blows in the wind a cords plug can punch a hole in the door. It's pretty useless.
