Hi Everyone, We hope you enjoyed our video! Do you prefer a MID bath or REAR bath in a Class B motorhome? Please say hello by leaving a comment below! Also, please feel free to ask any questions or just tell us about yourselves. We want to get to know you and share our RV experiences.
Class B's are so pricey but the compact size makes them easier to drive for most people. The refrigerator is so small and the midbsth is tight but it beats not having a bathroom! I definitely prefer the rear bath model. Seems more functional.
We like mid bath because it divides sleeping from living. You can leave it as a bed and still have a living area up front and/or let your partner sleep while you're up front having coffee, working, etc. We did find a model from another manufacturer that offers rear couch/bed as well as large fridge and freezer up front.

We're in the rear bath camp - the Sequence 20L though. That one has the galley on the driver's side and then two long benches that convert to twin beds or can be configured as a queen size. The advantage is that neither of us has to crawl over the other to get to the bathroom in the middle of the night and at our age we do need to do that 🙂It might have a bit less storage, but that's just a matter of planning and outfitting properly. We're short-trippers, not full-time residents so spending a month in the 20L is doable. The mid-bath units seem to accentuate the "small" factor of the coach and the bathrooms ought not have showers - they're just not something I'd want to do for a month or even a week. Using a bed bag gives us an always "made" bed that we can slip into at night and in the morning just zip it back up do it's a seating cushion during the day. The solar and internet/cell booster that's standard equipment along with the extra alternator in the engine bay gets rid of the generator but we can run the a/c on battery (3000W inverter). There are a couple of other manufacturers who offer something similar so it's not just something Thor builds.

Love the rear Bathroom!!! The middle bathroom make the whole Rv very tired and you can not breathe. Also it will make smelling for use no careful 。 the rear bathroom can easily ti clean it up . And the sitting area really open up

I’m in love with the second rig. The rear bath set up makes for more space over all. I’ve seen a similar rig but with Jack knife beds. Not bad for Class B
I'm not a class B person, way too compact. I also don't like having to put the bed together, Jenga style. But if I had to choose, rear bath would be better than mid bath. It seems to have more room and you can actually shut the Bathroom door. I like that the second model has a fridge with a separate freezer (though still small) and the convection microwave. I was very impressed with the amount of storage, especially in the 2nd one. If I were to ever get a B van, it would be great to have a bed that goes down and a rear bath. That might mean watching TV from the swiveled front seats or bed.

I like the rear bathroom style. There just seems like there is much more room. It would be great for 1 or 2 people. One downside for both is having to make the bed constantly.

Rear bath for me. I love the second one sleep system. I am very short so I could just sleep on one. The one near the bath so I did not have to crawl over the bed to get out. Also I could sleep head to window instead of using both pull outs. I really like the second one for the larger frig too.
Hey BerT Great choice! Thanks for watching and commenting! ❤ Mike and Susan BTW, let us know what you think of RV Camping Magazine, our free digital and video magazine! rvblogger.com/rv-camping-magazine/
I prefer the mid-bath model with the couch at the back. It gives you two areas to sit and if one prefers the bed can be available all day. The bathroom area in the Coachman Nova and Beyond models allows one to close the doors. The total bathroom area (if the storage in the back bathroom model is subtracted ) is about the same in both models. I also don't care for the open bench seating with one's feet dangling off the floor in most twin bed models.
Rear bath functionally is the better option in open living space, a clear walkway front to back door, rear sprayer/power outlets and ladder, the hide away pull out bed creates more space (Gaucho bed folds away into a couch) with pet water bowl slide away, night stand/power tower in gaucho pull out is great feature. What company platforms make this rear bath layout on a Ford Awd Transit?
We think the rear bathroom is a great floor plan in a Class B RV. Coachmen Beyond 22RB, Thor Palladium & Talavera 1910 and Chinook RV Bayside models have with rear bathrooms. Thank you for watching our RV tour video and commenting.

So glad to see what that bathroom is like which would be a deal killer for me! There's no room to do anything! I would definitely get the other model with the bathroom in the back.
I love the rear bath floor plan too! Only using one side to sleep is a great idea. Thank you for watching our RV tour video and commenting. We appreciate your support!
I like the rear bath. Seems to give more room in the middle of the van. But I don't like the price. I find class C's are much much cheaper. I love camping but don't own any camper.....yet!

I prefer the Rear bath on a class B. It's much roomier. The downside is the origami (assemble yourself) bed. In a perfect Class B, combine a rear bath & a drop down bed.
Just a thought - having rear bath with the pop up bed - I'd sleep in the top bed n leave bottom set up as couch/dng would be cool! I personally feel class B's are too pricy.
Hey Sandy Great point! Thanks for watching and commenting! ❤ Mike and Susan BTW, let us know what you think of RV Camping Magazine, our free digital and video magazine! rvblogger.com/rv-camping-magazine/
I prefer the rear bath for the space. I wonder if you have had the chance to look at any class b or b+ that have murphy beds? If not you should! The murphy beds are way easier!

Mid bath in Nova C for myself and wife . I Iike the large bed (large queen) that the couch system allows. I'm 6'2"and can put my feet in the middle cut out at night . Can ,also, crawl out and use bathroom at night fairly easily. This is hard to do on RB models if the large bed is set up. I guess one would have to be able to spin 180 degs. to position oneself to access the RB. The actual bathroom area is about the same as the RB model so no advantage there. The Nova C has a large 7 cu. ft. refrigerator with only a 3 c.f. model available in the RB version.
Thank you so much for sharing you experience and advice on Class Bs with mid or rear bath. This can be very helpful to our viewers! Thank you for watching our RV tour and commenting Charles.

I wish our Van designers would seriously reevaluate how we make RVs versus how the Europeans or Japanese do it. The fit and finish of Europeans and designs are years ahead of most things we can buy in US on very similar chassis' dimensions. What about offline power sources with all the new battery and solar options? I will definitely will not pay 140K and have my knees sticking out of the bathroom. I do not think our manufacturers are thinking hard enough and most of our US products are not well thought through. What about streaming options like the new Elon Musk's options for satellite based internet connection, security cameras... sorry to be negative. I think we have the knowledge and technologies, but most of our manufacturers are too greedy and put cheap particle board cabinetry and outdated 1970's A/C units like the ones shown. Seems they are more interested in volume sales, rather high quality products at more reasonable prices. with each year products improving more and more and give the EU companies a run for their money. We can do better than what we are doing. I am unimpressed.

I've been during research on what type of class B layout I would like the rear bathroom is more practical as far as space goes compared to mid bathroom.
Without the experience of owning one, I would say a rear bath is a great option for more space! Thank you for watching our RV tour and commenting Vixen.
Hey Jill, Great choice! Thanks for watching and commenting! ❤ Mike and Susan BTW, let us know what you think of RV Camping Magazine, our free digital and video magazine! rvblogger.com/rv-camping-magazine/
Rear bath for me. Plus you get a bigger fridge which is always a plus. I am still deciding whether a B or C is for me. I will be solo with my dog and cat, so the length is not an issue.
Hi Nancy, That's a tough decision between a B and C... B is easier to drive, gets better gas mileage C has more storage space and room inside... Thanks for watching and commenting! Mike and Susan

Hey Lina Great choice! Thanks for watching and commenting! ❤ Mike and Susan BTW, let us know what you think of RV Camping Magazine, our free digital and video magazine! rvblogger.com/rv-camping-magazine/
Rear bath is so much better thought out than the Mid bath. the kitchen and frig and convention microwave. I would have like to see a fold down counter shelf in the entertainment area for more counter space but the rear bath is very but I never understand why they are soooooo expensive compared to larger, more powerful small class A motorhomes..if they would market class Bs at a decent price they would take over.
Hey Lyndon, Great points!!! Thanks for watching and commenting! ❤ Mike and Susan BTW, let us know what you think of RV Camping Magazine, our free digital and video magazine! rvblogger.com/rv-camping-magazine/
Hi Mike, The rear bath is definitely the more popular model! We would get tired of transitioning the bed for sure! Thanks for watching and commenting! Mike and Susan
Your reviews are very helpful! I appreciate your honesty when you know a feature could be an issue. I’m liking the 20K model. I prefer the rear bathroom though I’m not liking the placement of the bed. It is between this and the Winnebago Travato 59K. What say you? I’d like your input.
Thank you❤️! Winnebago makes a great product. As for floor plan, I think the Travato wins. I'd prefer to walk in to the kitchen area vs my bed/sofa when entering the RV. Could always trying renting one first to see you the floor plan best fits you. And check customer reviews for quality craftsmanship and customer service. That might make a difference to you. Thank you for your support!
@@RVBlogger I’m concerned about the Thor brand and their reputation!! I hear their warranty service and CS is not good at all! I really wanted a smaller camper van for the ease and the ability to take it and park it anywhere but unfortunately Winnebago doesn’t have a smaller version of their Travato 59K. Being that you guys are pros at what you do, I’d love any suggestions. I’m basically looking for a smaller version of the 59K but from a reputable company. 🤷🏻♀️
I understand your reluctance. We bought a 2020 Thor and have constant problems. But we did purchase a third party extended warranty through Wholesale Warranties and we are very grateful for that. It's come in handy several times. We don't have a lot of intel on the Class B RVs but we'll definitely look around in Tampa.
Rear bath gives more room. I wish more travel trailers & class C would do wet baths and do away with those small shower pans. Making the entire bath area wet would really open up the room to take a comfortable shower for us larger folk.
Look at the smaller of the InTech Terra and OVR travel trailers. They have an unbelievably roomy wetbath. I am 6'3"+, 220 or so and found it very roomy. One thing they do to keep it so roomy is that there is no sink in it, which I think is an excellent tradeoff.
I'm watching in March 2023. This is a needed video. I have been seeing class B with the wet bath behind the driver's seat. I prefer a front and rear lounge. Can you give some measurements of the wet baths and other important measurements. The 20k rear bath looks good. More open feel.
So glad you found our video and it's helpful to you. I'm sorry I don't have those measurements but you could probably check out the manufacturers website for details. Thanks for watching and commenting!
One thing I’m curious about is if the designers have thought about having a long bath on one side and a full-size bed on the opposite, kind of a split design I see the differences between the mid bath and the rear bath. You have a lot more room with the rear bath, but I’m not crazy about the bed set up. The mid bath is really cramped but the bed is pretty decent
Love the rear bath but since there is lots of storage, the bathroom clothing storage should be a sink or something else. I would think clothing and cabinetry would become damp and possibly mold.

Hey Mike and Susan! Ya know for as much money as these things cost (a house on wheels), the bathrooms in these things are just too small for my comfort. I think for younger folks, they are okay. When you’re younger your tolerance is a bit different. And you’ll have many years to pay that thing off! Ha! I just know for me, at my age (58), I don’t have tolerance for such a small space. I think they are amazing though. I’d rather have something bigger and something where my grandkids could come along sometimes. Not enough room to spoil em! ❤️💜💚
Hey Paige, That's fair! We definitely understand both sides, wanting smaller and bigger :) Thanks for watching and commenting! ❤ Mike and Susan BTW, let us know what you think of RV Camping Magazine, our free digital and video magazine! rvblogger.com/rv-camping-magazine/
The wardrobe beside the mid-bath could be made a little smaller, thus giving more room in the bathroom. Let's face it, if you need to wear suits and evening dresses all the time, you would be in a hotel or a larger RV set-up. The seat behind the Captains chairs do not need to be wasted space, because if they are designed correctly they could double as a second bed area, suitable to sleep a third person, or perhaps a fourth as well. The KEA class B's had a set-up like that in their M-700 model, but I believe this year they dropped it. Some of the big RV companies are not very flexible to individual requests for customisation, and those that allow such changes are mainly superficial and cosmetic that an owner could probably do themselves anyway, but they can charge huge amounts for these minor changes. They tend to appeal to the majority and stick to just one or a few configurations. Smaller, custom build companies are far more flexible, and tend to be value for money. Some are poor quality but many can produce a finish as good or often better than the bigger corporations. Considering it is such a big "investment" in dollars, you should be able to buy what you need, but often, the choices are confined to the "lowest common denominator" with the big RV builders.
All great points and we completely agree. There is no perfect RV, even custom made. There will always be something sacrificed. Thanks for watching and commenting.
Thank you so much! That's a great question that I don't really know the answer to. I believe the models Scope, Tellaro and the Sequence 20A do but not sure if other models have the Skybunk. Might have to check with the manufacturer. Thank you for watching our RV tour video and commenting.
Rear baths are the best, you have more room, it opens up the feel and the location gives as much privacy as possible from the others while also making it possible to enter from the back, get cleaned up before going in. I'd like to see a built in pull laundry cord for wet suits and such to be hung and dried with the aid of a fan. I love the ability to have a bathroom sink, I don't like the idea of what you wash and do in the bathroom being done in the kitchen sink. I would like to see a composting toilet, like natures head, instead of a black tank. I don't like using the chemicals, or dealing with a black tank.

This video was to demonstrate the differences between a Class B RV with a mid bath and a rear bath. To be consistent we used to two Thor models. This is not an ad for Thor or are we paid by Thor. Thank you for watching.
Rear bath is way better - more spacious living & showering areas! If you can't even shut the door while on the commode, well who needs THAT! 😄 I still don't understand why they can't design campers to be spacious & homey like they did the ones from the 70s. Everything is so compressed in modern vehicles & too much emphasis placed on styled cabinetry rather than maximizing functionality

We are looking for a 19’ RV with a DRY bath (separate shower and toilet). Not a fan of wet bath where you shower on top of the toilet. RV manufacturers, come up with a design which smartly separates the shower and keeping the toilet dry. 🙏🙏🙏🙏

Definitely the rear bath. I need the bigger fridge, the extra bathroom space, the black tank, and the more open feel. It's pretty awesome.
The Rear Bath Model is winning!

Bathroom in the back is the way to go.
So much more room. It can also act as a mud room. Easy in and out.
Hi Bryan,
The rear bath seems to be the popular option!

We like mid bath because it divides sleeping from living. You can leave it as a bed and still have a living area up front and/or let your partner sleep while you're up front having coffee, working, etc. We did find a model from another manufacturer that offers rear couch/bed as well as large fridge and freezer up front.

The rear bath set up makes for more space over all. I’ve seen a similar rig but with Jack knife beds.
Not bad for Class B
Hi Robert,
Thanks for watching and commenting!
Mike and Susan
I'm not a class B person, way too compact. I also don't like having to put the bed together, Jenga style. But if I had to choose, rear bath would be better than mid bath. It seems to have more room and you can actually shut the Bathroom door. I like that the second model has a fridge with a separate freezer (though still small) and the convection microwave. I was very impressed with the amount of storage, especially in the 2nd one. If I were to ever get a B van, it would be great to have a bed that goes down and a rear bath. That might mean watching TV from the swiveled front seats or bed.
Hey Patty,
That would be great !

I like the rear bathroom style. There just seems like there is much more room. It would be great for 1 or 2 people. One downside for both is having to make the bed constantly.

Rear bath for me. I love the second one sleep system. I am very short so I could just sleep on one. The one near the bath so I did not have to crawl over the bed to get out. Also I could sleep head to window instead of using both pull outs. I really like the second one for the larger frig too.

I prefer the mid-bath model with the couch at the back. It gives you two areas to sit and if one prefers the bed can be available all day. The bathroom area in the Coachman Nova and Beyond models allows one to close the doors. The total bathroom area (if the storage in the back bathroom model is subtracted ) is about the same in both models. I also don't care for the open bench seating with one's feet dangling off the floor in most twin bed models.
Those are all really great points! Thanks for watching and commenting.
Rear bath is the way to go!
Completely agree! 🙌 Thank you for watching our RV tour video and commenting. We appreciate your support!
the best is still the rear bath
I also prefer the rear bath. Bigger bath and better living space for sure. Thank you for watching our RV tour video and commenting!
Rear bath functionally is the better option in open living space, a clear walkway front to back door, rear sprayer/power outlets and ladder, the hide away pull out bed creates more space (Gaucho bed folds away into a couch) with pet water bowl slide away, night stand/power tower in gaucho pull out is great feature. What company platforms make this rear bath layout on a Ford Awd Transit?
We think the rear bathroom is a great floor plan in a Class B RV. Coachmen Beyond 22RB, Thor Palladium & Talavera 1910 and Chinook RV Bayside models have with rear bathrooms. Thank you for watching our RV tour video and commenting.

I prefer the Rear bath on a class B. It's much roomier. The downside is the origami (assemble yourself) bed. In a perfect Class B, combine a rear bath & a drop down bed.
That is a great idea! Would love to see that sometime!
Rear bath as a bigger size man. With the doors open a rod between the door and with a curtain it would give you a big bath/dressing area.
Hey John,
Thats an awesome idea thanks for sharing!!!

Just a thought - having rear bath with the pop up bed - I'd sleep in the top bed n leave bottom set up as couch/dng would be cool! I personally feel class B's are too pricy.

Mid bath in Nova C for myself and wife . I Iike the large bed (large queen) that the couch system allows. I'm 6'2"and can put my feet in the middle cut out at night . Can ,also, crawl out and use bathroom at night fairly easily. This is hard to do on RB models if the large bed is set up. I guess one would have to be able to spin 180 degs. to position oneself to access the RB. The actual bathroom area is about the same as the RB model so no advantage there. The Nova C has a large 7 cu. ft. refrigerator with only a 3 c.f. model available in the RB version.

I wish our Van designers would seriously reevaluate how we make RVs versus how the Europeans or Japanese do it. The fit and finish of Europeans and designs are years ahead of most things we can buy in US on very similar chassis' dimensions. What about offline power sources with all the new battery and solar options? I will definitely will not pay 140K and have my knees sticking out of the bathroom. I do not think our manufacturers are thinking hard enough and most of our US products are not well thought through. What about streaming options like the new Elon Musk's options for satellite based internet connection, security cameras... sorry to be negative. I think we have the knowledge and technologies, but most of our manufacturers are too greedy and put cheap particle board cabinetry and outdated 1970's A/C units like the ones shown. Seems they are more interested in volume sales, rather high quality products at more reasonable prices. with each year products improving more and more and give the EU companies a run for their money. We can do better than what we are doing. I am unimpressed.

Rear bath for me. Plus you get a bigger fridge which is always a plus. I am still deciding whether a B or C is for me. I will be solo with my dog and cat, so the length is not an issue.

That's a tough decision between a B and C...
B is easier to drive, gets better gas mileage
C has more storage space and room inside...

The quality of the B will be much better and they are much safer from a crash stand point. If it's only 2 of you, class B would be more than enough.

Your reviews are very helpful! I appreciate your honesty when you know a feature could be an issue. I’m liking the 20K model. I prefer the rear bathroom though I’m not liking the placement of the bed. It is between this and the Winnebago Travato 59K. What say you? I’d like your input.
Thank you❤️! Winnebago makes a great product. As for floor plan, I think the Travato wins. I'd prefer to walk in to the kitchen area vs my bed/sofa when entering the RV. Could always trying renting one first to see you the floor plan best fits you. And check customer reviews for quality craftsmanship and customer service. That might make a difference to you. Thank you for your support!
@@RVBlogger We are actually thinking about maybe getting something smaller. We’re looking at the Thor Scope 18G. Are you familiar with it?
We haven't seen it in person yet. Hoping to at the Tampa RV show. It looks pretty sweet and not a bad MSRP for a Class B.
@@RVBlogger I’m concerned about the Thor brand and their reputation!! I hear their warranty service and CS is not good at all! I really wanted a smaller camper van for the ease and the ability to take it and park it anywhere but unfortunately Winnebago doesn’t have a smaller version of their Travato 59K. Being that you guys are pros at what you do, I’d love any suggestions. I’m basically looking for a smaller version of the 59K but from a reputable company. 🤷🏻♀️
I understand your reluctance. We bought a 2020 Thor and have constant problems. But we did purchase a third party extended warranty through Wholesale Warranties and we are very grateful for that. It's come in handy several times. We don't have a lot of intel on the Class B RVs but we'll definitely look around in Tampa.
Rear bath gives more room. I wish more travel trailers & class C would do wet baths and do away with those small shower pans. Making the entire bath area wet would really open up the room to take a comfortable shower for us larger folk.
That is a great idea. A large wet bath is better than a small dry bath! Thanks for watching and commenting Scott.
Look at the smaller of the InTech Terra and OVR travel trailers. They have an unbelievably roomy wetbath. I am 6'3"+, 220 or so and found it very roomy. One thing they do to keep it so roomy is that there is no sink in it, which I think is an excellent tradeoff.
I'm watching in March 2023.
This is a needed video. I have been seeing class B with the wet bath behind the driver's seat. I prefer a front and rear lounge. Can you give some measurements of the wet baths and other important measurements.
The 20k rear bath looks good. More open feel.
So glad you found our video and it's helpful to you. I'm sorry I don't have those measurements but you could probably check out the manufacturers website for details. Thanks for watching and commenting!
One thing I’m curious about is if the designers have thought about having a long bath on one side and a full-size bed on the opposite, kind of a split design
I see the differences between the mid bath and the rear bath. You have a lot more room with the rear bath, but I’m not crazy about the bed set up. The mid bath is really cramped but the bed is pretty decent
There are definitely pros and cons to both. You might be on to something with you design idea! Thanks for watching and commenting.
Love the rear bath but since there is lots of storage, the bathroom clothing storage should be a sink or something else. I would think clothing and cabinetry would become damp and possibly mold.
There's a curtain that goes around and I'm pretty sure there's a strong fan.

Hey Mike and Susan! Ya know for as much money as these things cost (a house on wheels), the bathrooms in these things are just too small for my comfort. I think for younger folks, they are okay. When you’re younger your tolerance is a bit different. And you’ll have many years to pay that thing off! Ha! I just know for me, at my age (58), I don’t have tolerance for such a small space. I think they are amazing though. I’d rather have something bigger and something where my grandkids could come along sometimes. Not enough room to spoil em!

The wardrobe beside the mid-bath could be made a little smaller, thus giving more room in the bathroom. Let's face it, if you need to wear suits and evening dresses all the time, you would be in a hotel or a larger RV set-up.
The seat behind the Captains chairs do not need to be wasted space, because if they are designed correctly they could double as a second bed area, suitable to sleep a third person, or perhaps a fourth as well. The KEA class B's had a set-up like that in their M-700 model, but I believe this year they dropped it.
Some of the big RV companies are not very flexible to individual requests for customisation, and those that allow such changes are mainly superficial and cosmetic that an owner could probably do themselves anyway, but they can charge huge amounts for these minor changes. They tend to appeal to the majority and stick to just one or a few configurations. Smaller, custom build companies are far more flexible, and tend to be value for money. Some are poor quality but many can produce a finish as good or often better than the bigger corporations. Considering it is such a big "investment" in dollars, you should be able to buy what you need, but often, the choices are confined to the "lowest common denominator" with the big RV builders.
All great points and we completely agree. There is no perfect RV, even custom made. There will always be something sacrificed. Thanks for watching and commenting.
Rear Bath because of the open feel of it

Hi @rvblogger! Great video. Curious....can you put a SkyBed/pop up on the 20K with a rear bath?

Hi Penny,
No one prefers the mid bath! Looks like the rear bath model is way more popular!

Rear baths are the best, you have more room, it opens up the feel and the location gives as much privacy as possible from the others while also making it possible to enter from the back, get cleaned up before going in. I'd like to see a built in pull laundry cord for wet suits and such to be hung and dried with the aid of a fan. I love the ability to have a bathroom sink, I don't like the idea of what you wash and do in the bathroom being done in the kitchen sink. I would like to see a composting toilet, like natures head, instead of a black tank. I don't like using the chemicals, or dealing with a black tank.

Rear bath is way better - more spacious living & showering areas! If you can't even shut the door while on the commode, well who needs THAT! 😄 I still don't understand why they can't design campers to be spacious & homey like they did the ones from the 70s. Everything is so compressed in modern vehicles & too much emphasis placed on styled cabinetry rather than maximizing functionality
