At this point don't concern yourself with that. Go enjoy it, after all the key word is "bought".

BTW, folks speak kindly of their Bullets here.

We have had our Bullet for over a year and have no complaints with the quality. Everything has worked as advertised. Of course we have made a few mods to better suit our style of living-tilting/adjusting tv mount and a larger/smart tv. And are working on LED lighting one fixture at a time. Otherwise, all is good and we have thoroughly enjoyed our Bullet.

ours has been a great unit, we upgraded to LED lighting, 24 inch LG TV and Jacks antenna. Over 50% of our nights out have been dry-camping.

Enjoy yours!

We had a 2011 286QBS. The clothes rod in the bunkhouse closet fell down, due to very short staples holding it up. Gorilla Glued it back and all was well. Now have a Premier 22RB and can't find anything to complain about so far, except the microwave is up so high my wife has to use a stool to reach it.

All in all, I'm pretty happy.

Enjoy your Bullet!

We just got our 2015 Bullut 308BHS in April. It was a 7.5 hour drive home from the dealer. We spent our first long weekend in the camper. So far we've expereinced a few more than expected issues.
1. Propone tank tray bolts - 3 of the 4 heads broke off
2. Mini fridge (empty) in outside kitchen put hole in shelf it sits on
3. Cowling over tires on slide out came loose
4. Bathroom sink drain pipe shattered under sink
5. Had to re-seal crack between diamond plate and front of trailer

I'll say I'm a bit disappointed but Value for what I payed for the trailer is still good. I hope these initial bumps in the road are over quickly and we're in for a long life time of camping weekends.

Good Luck and enjoy!

We just got back from spending the winter (4 months) in our Bullet248. We are very pleased with how it is put together. I also replace all the bolts holding on the propane tanks---please check yours. We also replaced the mattress with an innerspring pillow top.

If anyone has found another TV mount for the 22" TV attached to the upper cabinet, that will allow you to tilt it down, please let me know.

Enjoy! Happy travels!

We bought a 2014 Bullet Premier 33BHPR in October of 2013, The only problems we had with it was in the bedroom the trim piece was not installed on the vertical part of the bed frame and the fitting for the black water wash out was loose and sprayed water all over the bathroom sink cabinet. Other than that we have had no issues. We love our Bullet and can hardly wait to use it again.

We haven't had a single problem with our '14 230BH we purchased three weeks after our friends purchased a 2013 212 with an outside kitchen. They on the other hand, have a trailer that should have gone back to the factory.
Warped closet doors, bulges in a wall, trim coming off... I have a hard time believing they both came off the same assembly line, they are night and day different as far as fit and finish, and had I seen all the things wrong with theirs before I purchased ours, I probably would have bought a different trailer. I'm glad I didn't!

Smile 2014 Bullet 272BHS

Just completed a 4k round trip with 4 adults from Austin to Utah National Parks, Colorado, and New Mexico. Towed with 2014 Ram 1500, hemi, 8 spd, 3.92 rear end. Trailer: other than a few minor issues (loose screws on one fender cowling, one window knob came loose, one tail light burned out, gas water heater fuse blew) we had no major problems or complaints. We traveled/camped through rain, snow, sun, and mountains.

Some additions/modifications: moved 24" tv to bed area: installed 32" smart tv, jacked tv audio to speakers, added 4 towel rack to bath, added grab bar to screen door, installed battery cutoff switch, replaced mechanical front jack with electric jack (a must), carried electric drill for raising/lowering stabilizers, added 2 1/2" gel mattress toppers to all beds, removed side curtain panels from dinette area (creates more usable room at table), added extension cord to bunk areas since plugs are inconveniently located, used clip on fans in bunk areas.
Plan to add rear grab bar, change light fixture over dinette (keep hitting heads), may add awning over slide-out.
All in all, we are pleased with our new trailer and plan more travel in the near future.

230 bhs

We bought a 230 BHS in April and have been without an exception, thrilled with the camper quality.

It's been through torrential rains and steady winds with no leaks. It tows like a champ behind a Tundra. We walk like elephants and it doesn't rock. The refrigerator cools quickly on propane or electric. We sleep like the dead on that mattress. Maybe we stay up too late...

There was a chunk of Styrofoam in the black water tank valve that lead to a small leak, but I think that has passed through the system now. Small leak = 1 TSP of liquid when I took off the sewer cap after 5 days of camping. I don't consider that an issue.

She's a keeper!

We have the 2011 28RLS Premier Bullet. We bought it new towards the end of 2011 so this is our third summer with it. We have been extremely happy with it. This season we removed the u-shaped dinette and replaced it with a table and chairs. I think we're going to be happy with the change. Enjoy your TT and stay safe.

We bought our 2013 last year and have been relatively happy with it. There have been some issues but nothing that we haven't worked through. Enjoy!

Love ours

We bought our 2014 Premier 34 bhpr this spring and totally love it! We havent done anything extra to it because it already has everything we wanted. We really looked at a LOT of TT's before chosing this one. The bed is comfortable without us adding a topper, super spacious with the island kitchen, hubby loves the 42 "tv. I am in love with the outdoor kitchen.

We bought our 2014 Bullet 272BHS over Memorial Day weekend and just love it! We took it on two close to home weekend camping trips (approx hr drive from home each) to work out any bugs.We then took it from OH to Yellowstone National Park just last month. We put on over 3500mi during that trip alone. We have had zero problems with the quality at all.

Of course after living in it for a bit we made some minor mods like additional towel rack for the bathroom and dishcloth bar in the kitchen area. All said we have spent 21 days in it so far and have another few small trips then on to Niagara Falls for the Labor day Weekend. We couldn't be more thrilled with our Bullet!!!
