Just returned from a month-long trip around Lake Superior in our new 400, very pleased with it. One minor annoyance (a window tab needed adjusting) and only one fault - on two occasions drawers fell out despite the lock knob being depressed. Anybody know how to make them more secure?
We really enjoyed the brightness of the interior with its big windows - after 25 years with a truck camper it's like day and night!.
About half the trip was boondocking. FWIW, our propane tank was 50% full when we returned but we did use a portable BBQ a lot. The battery never fell below about 80% but it was admittedly very sunny every day. The solar power did a great job. The ALDE worked perfectly, and although I did retore the air cushion a couple of times I wonder whether simply turning off the pump and opening the hot water drain under the camper for a few moments would achieve the same thing - without having to take the bed apart?
All in all - delighted.

Drawer lock knob adjustment is not difficult and is rewarding. Might need shims/thin washers under the "stop" to improve engagement.2023 TAB 400 with modifications in process.

BillCB "I did restore the air cushion a couple of times. I wonder whether simply turning off the pump and opening the hot water drain under the camper for a few moments would achieve the same thing - without having to take the bed apart?"I have had this exact same thought, why not design a more accessible way to perform this function. So far I haven't had to do this much but if I did I would research this further.
