I'm on my second.
First was a 21SW DF I bought new in Feb 03, sold Sept 09, and now I'm on my second, a 2010 model 811 long bed camper.... I've had it almost a month
Delivery day of the DF:

Delivery day of the 811, on a truck that isn't even broke in yet.

We've had two: a 1996 Nash 26J purchased new--it had many custom options that were later incorporated into the Arctic Fox line. Sold it in 2002 and bought a new AF 25R. This trailer will probably be with us for awhile!

| Our first was a 2000 27-5L, then a 2003 26Z and now a 2004 27-5L. If NW comes up with a decent 5th wheel toy hauler in the 30 foot range that will be my 4th.

We are on our first, it's an AF
Note:
We went smaller first fiver (32 ft) was not a Northwood product.
The AF 27 5L has a better floorplan which makes it seem bigger

Notice that most start out small and then get bigger. Oh ya, just one for us.

We went smaller, not larger. The 25R has more storage and a bigger bathroom than the larger 26J. Go figure!

The bath in the 25r is one foot shorter than the bath in the 22h. Doesn't seem like much until you get in and shut the door.

I know--but try on the bath in the 26J sometime--(new models might have enlarged it) or the 27T has the same bath as the 26J. The bath on the 25R is huge compared to the little side bathrooms!

| One of the best things about Northwood trailers, most models anyway, is the large bathrooms. One of our criteria when we started looking at RV's back in '04 was to have a good sized bath. Most trailers less than 26 ft. had the dinky corner bath with the bed wedged in the opposite corner. Neither would do for us. When we saw the 17c with the big bath, we were sold and it could be pulled by our Dodge Dakota. When the grandkids started to want to go along, we needed a larger trailer and made the mistake of the 19b, the main issue being the smaller bath. So far, the 22h has been great, we don't mind the sideways bed in the front because we like the couch and the large bath is a real plus. Our Tundra tows it very well and it is easy to get into spots in some of the tight camp grounds we have been in, even private ones that say they are big rig friendly, which is a stretch of the facts in some cases.

We're on our first, it will be a year in January.
Our second will likely come in 4-5 years when the oldest is getting too big for the smaller bunks. I'm hoping Northwood will have a 30' 5th wheel with either bunks or in a toy-hauler configuration with a slide by then. The 27-whatever model was nice, but I want a full height ceiling in the master bedroom.
