Yes, that was in interesting tour. Embassy, builds to high quality standards. Under $200,000 is not too bad. I like that Embassy is looking for innovation not just copies the same old floor plans and colors.
Oh! I'm in love with this new Embassy model, the Cape Cod! Who is it for? A solo retired woman who wants to visit friends and relatives with her little dogs any time of the year without having to worry about slide-outs, propane, generators, or a black tank! This B+ is absolutely perfect for me! 😊
As always... great tour and information! We LOVE our Embassy SL Class B... and love Embassy too. Great service, fantastic quality, and wonderful people! 8:49 I think you meant Hydronic, not hydroponic!! 😄
Looks like much-better-than-average construction, with some neat features not available in the "usual", and that AC unit / battery bank sounds awesome ! I will have to check if they also build on the standard-length Transit.
Love almost everything about it ! I would love to see greens and blues for color. To me beige, brown and white is boring. Love the toilet ! Everything was done up nicely with the storage and pantry. Take care and be safe when you travel !
Laveo is a great idea...have looked into it and one cartridge is 15 to 17 uses...I think many more people would choose this option if it were more affordable...to my estimation cost is 1.70 - 2.00 a flush. Without a black tank people have converted what would be the black tank into additional gray tank.
No cook top? Where do the 3 mattresses for the couch/bed store at when not being used? Is the only way to charge the batteries when boon docking the alternator? Are there Solar options? Generator option?
It looks like you have to bring your own induction cooktop. Two of the mattress pieces are probably the couch cushions ... they didn't show where the 3rd one is stored.
After viewing 2 more videos on Embassy’s website it looks like Susan is correct about the couch cushions. The 3rd cushion was stored in the rear storage compartment. The table from the bedroom can be moved to in front of the couch. It can be ordered with the portable induction cook top. I like the idea of it being portable and not permanently installed for flexibility. As of now I believe it is prepped for solar on the roof and with wiring pass throughs. Solar options available on future units. Looks like they keep making improvements. All in all a very nice and thought out RV, Now I just have to win the lottery 😁
I would love that toilet if only if it was not so expensive to use but holy moly 75 bucks for 3 refill kits which totals 45 flushes can you imagine taking two grandkids so 4 people were in there flushing even for a two-week trip?
@@Tatiacha You don’t have to flush after every visit. If it’s yellow let it mellow, if it’s brown flush it down. Several options for #1. A little cat litter or other products to solidify and stop odors. Just another option
@@foghornlh7592 of course but even putting that into play the cost is the most expensive way to pee and poop out there, far more than composting, far more than dumping a black tank. Also it has to be emptied far more often then either of the other options.
So many things I really like, insulation, storage. But...the microwave seems high and using that storage/step seems odd. Also wonder where the 3 matresses are stored (or the 1 if the 2 cushions are used) and no cooktop!
This is a very thoughtful and innovative, in many ways, RV. We have been using the Laveo Dry Flush in our LTV Wonder RTB and really like it. Sure beats having to deal with the black water and it is nice to see it used in a new design. I'm very impressed with the electrical systems and creature comfort's --very well thought out. Question, however--is the HVAC system pure electric? No propane? Noticed that there was no cook top in the galley--hidden induction? Storage is generally adequate, but didn't see any hanging storage for coats, etc. Would that be an option? So now for some concerns: Ford has been having issues with the eco boost engine and the ten speed transmission. Our experience is that not every Ford dealership is equipped or will even consider servicing a "motorhome", hence warranty work is sketchy at best. The coach portion of this RV is impressive, indeed, but the chassis, not so much. Very nice presentation!
Foamcore fiberglass is the way to go. But that length and rear overhang...ooofffff. BTW, "Not enough storage" means you're bringing too much junk with you.
What is the OCCC? I hope it's better than most. Because class C's and Class B's have serious issues with OCCC, Mfg and dealers avoid informing customers. With auto level, We looked at Tiffin and Leisure... 750-900lb. Winnebago 1000lb. Grand Design's new Class C 1,040 lb. We purchased Winnebago Navion 24J almost 1,300 lb with every option except auto level.
I was thinking the same thing. With all the features and such a large water tank the OCCC might be interesting to see. Really disappointed that they didn’t mention this as it’s such a key consideration.
@@RVLifestyle When Terry demonstrates the sofa bed, he mentions three different thicknesses of mattresses. But there are only two sofa cushions that are shown - the seat and the seat back ... that's why it seems that the 3rd mattress piece is missing. Or did I miss seeing the 3rd one?
Nice with innovation and quality very apparent, BUT...Did I miss something? Even checked Embassy RV's site and didn't see it. Specifically, the kitchen with the extended discussion of the countertop, sink, TV and storage, I didn't see a built in cooktop - induction or gas - or even a separate single burner stored in the drawers to be placed on the expanded countertop. But it did have a trash can! Lack of a cooktop seems like a major omission. The only reason I look for it is, while I like induction which the industry is trending towards, with a Pacemaker, the Electro-Magnetic Field (EMF) generated by induction can be an issue as that is how they work! Among the manufacturers, Medtronics recommends a 2' distance (impossible in a Class B, but doable in B+) while Abbott Labs (mine) totally omits Induction from their positive or negative list.
We don't have a Laveo toilet but per their website, you get about 15 flushes per refill - then you pull it out & dispose of it - put in a new refill (a refill costs around $20). Worth looking for reviews if it's something you are interested in. We have a black tank and after looking at videos and reviews of the Laveo, I'm happy to keep the black tank vs. dealing with the cost of refills and the garbage to dispose of from the Laveo. You have to empty grey water anyways - it's easy to do the black tank at the same time.
The Laveo apparently permanently entombs each "flush" by sealing the nkn-degradeable mylar tube. So each flush is sealed, like a bag of potato chips. I don't like the idea of "never degrades" sewage in the landfill. More forever plastics, and leave a buck or two per flush on the sink. And make sure to order spares. It certainly is a neat clean solution though.
@@KAW5 Nice! A couple of people have asked about the sofa bed - is there a 3rd cushion for it stored elsewhere in the RV? The video shows two sofa cushions which become the mattress pieces, but it mentions that there are 3 mattress pieces.
In my opinion Not so great for the price! Don’t like the poop situation and I don’t see a stove top. And no hanging closet space. Too tight and a lot of fluff if you ask me!
Great video! We have an Embassy Class B and love it! The Customer service is awesome! Terry Rocks!
Great video. Embassy RV is a top notch builder. I visited their factory in 2022 and was very impressed.
Thank you for the feedback!

Sounds like me!
Same here. I think I've finally found my RV! I love that there is no black tank!
Very good video. Been there and enjoyed our visit. A happy wannabee ❤
It’s elegant luxury in a compact form!
This is well made and gorgeous.
Gorgeous B+ and lots of storage. Thank you for sharing!
Gorgeous and well thought B+. I was looking for a class C under 30ft but that B+ has all that I was looking for ! Really Love 💗 it
Very much love the insulation. This should be standard in industry. And better windows.
And the zero propane.
As always... great tour and information! We LOVE our Embassy SL Class B... and love Embassy too. Great service, fantastic quality, and wonderful people!
8:49 I think you meant Hydronic, not hydroponic!! 😄
It's sooo nice❤❤❤❤ great video!!
Love the model! What about a stove or cooktop?
It comes with an induction burner that is stored in a drawer and can be taken outside to use.
Loved your review! You keep it real!
It's really nice, a good addition to the B vans.
Winner. Love to see a Bottom Freezer Fridge for the “Bad Knees” Generation. Also needs a Window covering behind the Pullout TV for Glare.
Looks like much-better-than-average construction, with some neat features not available in the "usual", and that AC unit / battery bank sounds awesome ! I will have to check if they also build on the standard-length Transit.
Besides WalMart parking lots, where is this thing gonna boondock with 4” of ground clearance and a zero-degree departure angle?? 😂
There are a lot of boondocking options between a Walmart parking lot and off road 4 x4 trails.
Love almost everything about it !
I would love to see greens and blues for color.
To me beige, brown and white is boring.
Love the toilet !
Everything was done up nicely with the storage and pantry.
Take care and be safe when you travel !
I believe there are color options.
Good tour. I did not see a stovetop burner in the galley, but maybe I just missed it. I like the price!
@@davidcamp3598 Embassy typically does a portable induction appliance
Only an hour from my house, tempted to visit the factory
Take me there.
I wish that gray water lever was on the Dolphin! Finding and pulling out that darn hose is a PITA!!!
Nice love the laveo? And batters just grate

I love the amount of storage, the beds look so comfy. But I see one disadvantage - no cooktop? Or did I miss it?
They use an induction stove you store away when not in use.

Trelino, less wasteful.
Love the quality & insulation.Love the storage! Beautiful RV!
Not sure about that toilet situation. Price probably warranted but out of my reach.
what is the OCC? Any chance of getting the AWD chassis next year?
I want Jennifer to talk more when you are inside. I want to hear her opinions on each thing as she is more likely looking at decor and cooking.
So many things I really like, insulation, storage. But...the microwave seems high and using that storage/step seems odd. Also wonder where the 3 matresses are stored (or the 1 if the 2 cushions are used) and no cooktop!

There is NO propane.
I believe the Ford chassis would be as serviceable as any other B+ out there, especially at dealerships in smaller towns.
Did I miss the cooktop and hanging closet?
@@grumpy039 comes with portable induction cook top.
Foamcore fiberglass is the way to go. But that length and rear overhang...ooofffff. BTW, "Not enough storage" means you're bringing too much junk with you.
Is there a table to eat at and where are the mattresses for the couch stored?
Warranty? Very nice love all of the storage.
Great review~
The big back window/ is it really a window you can see through?
Wish they would do the Sprinter AWD chassis.
Seems like it is on AWD chassis if you go to the manufacturer’s site.
Where’s the cook top? Is it propane or induction?
Induction
Should have installed bidet..... 17:37

Needs a screen door, don’t want the dogs running out the door😮
Nice van
If all the RV manufacturers adopt that toilet, Matt's new business venture is going to go out of business.
It looks really nice but where is the stovetop? Do they make a black tank model?
No black tank model, ever, by Embassy. Cooktop is single induction burner.
that toilet is a firm no go
What are the dimensions of the garage door? Can two folding Lectric e-bikes fit?
My exact question. It looks very tight, wish the opening was much larger
@@J.W.W. I dont think they would. Instead, they could be transported on the hitch.
@@RVLifestyletoo bad, the garage isn’t nearly as good as the Wonder
Where was the third sofa piece?
No cooktop? Looks like the faucet would be blocking the tv view.
And water marks on the tv?
What’s the length of this RV and the wait time??
How do I find a dealership? There's nothing on their website about sales.
They do not use dealers. They are out of Elkhart Indiana.
Just wondering how many miles to a gal?
First 😊
How do you cook anything other than in the microwave?
A single induction burner is included.
how do you cook? you never showed the stove.
A single induction burner is included.
Why is the door black??
And is there a screen?
Nice B+ van, too bad the pass thru isn’t big enough for road bikes.
I don’t like that ecoboost or any turbo engine, they don’t last and have more problems
I don’t quite get the sofa with 3 mattresses.
It's an extra bed - from what I saw, you use the two couch cushions as mattress pieces, and there must be a 3rd piece that you store elsewhere.
@@susans6510 The third is the seat back
@@RVLifestyle When Terry demonstrates the sofa bed, he mentions three different thicknesses of mattresses. But there are only two sofa cushions that are shown - the seat and the seat back ... that's why it seems that the 3rd mattress piece is missing. Or did I miss seeing the 3rd one?

It comes with a single induction burner. I instead use a smaller electric burner, leaving my induction burner at home.
Sleeping on a battery is highly dangerous. Read the book by Arthur Firstenburg The Invisible Rainbow. 🌈
Do the leaves come with the motorhome? Lol…Nice unit….Uncomfortable looking sofa…..Nice wiring
Beds look too short for my 6’ 4” frame
How much $$$$$?
Wouldn’t the toilet smell after 25 flushes? Yes I don’t want a black tank.

Is the fake/made up ….B+ classification helping sell class C?
Yes B+ is a marketing term. It is a Class C. But all the companies making them call them B+
How do you dispose of the pee and poo ?
In the trash, same as you would disposable diapers.
