2016 308 bhds
I purchased a 2016 BHDS in December last year. We used it, and the furnace quit running. We thought we may have run out of propane, and one bottle was empty. We attempted to remove the bottle, but couldn't. There wasn't enough clearance between the top of the bottle, and top of the compartment. We checked the other bottle, and it was still full. The furnace still didn't work, but all burners on the stove did. Back to the dealer. 2 days later the trailer was fixed under warranty. Bad circuit board. No charge. I asked how to remove the propane cylinder, and the dealer tried also. The only way to get them out was to bend the compartment door frame. The dealer called Keystone. Their answer was there is no fix, and you have to bend the frame each time you change the bottle. This does not seem to be an acceptable way to design a 5th wheel.
This is just a heads up for anyone thinking about purchasing this rig. Make sure you check the propane bottles, and how to remove/install them. Since Keystone isn't going to do anything to fix this issue, I'm just going to switch from the 30 lb cylinders to 20 lb instead.
