I have sleep apnea and badly need a small nightstand to place the surge-protector cutoff switch for my Bi-Pap. I need to have the electrical outlets for the Bi-Pap and the heatedhumidifer at a higher level than the Bi-Pap and humidier so water from the latter can't accdentally slosh onto any exposed electrical connection. At home I do this with physical separation - the surge-protector is on a shelf of my headboard while the Bi-Pap and humidifer are on a nightstand to one side of my bed.
I can put the little plastic platform with the screwed-in-place Bii-Pap and humidifer on the floor of a Cruiser by the bed without being in danger of my feet stepping on them (I checked), but must have the surge protector up by my head. This is not possible given the itty-bitty nightstands for Cruisers until just recently. I was considering screwing the surge-protector into the wall by the itty-bitty nightstand, or into the tiny thing, given that Cruisers have sturdy enough frames to permit this.
But Crossroads has just announced the CF335SS with the nightstand on oneside of the bed which I so desperately need. This looks very good. I hope they make a Patriot edition of it available as I definitely want 50 amp service and a second air conditioner.
My own other qualm about the CF335SS is that its entertainment slide has a big pop-up television. My wife and I much prefer the smaller TV and computer desk of the original version of the CF32CK Patriot and the non-Patriot CF31RK, as we both use computers for entertainment, and need space for two laptops. We'll replace one of the recliners with a small computer desk.
But the newly released CF335SSis very encouraging. We intend to buy in the winter of 2011-2012 and there is plenty of time for marginal improvements to it. I just wish our local dealer (Best RV of Turlock, California) gets one soon for us to look at. They had a CF32CK in the fall which we liked very much.
