Bullet Premier 32 BHPR
Hello
We are looking at the 32 BHPR, I really like the floor plan as well the outside kitchen and the weight as I have a half ton chevy.
I looking for the pros/cons to this trailer. We sold our pop up last year but we have looked at a lot of trailers and this one seams to stand out.
Thanks for any information on this trailer and 1st time travel trailer owner.
Indy

Hi and good luck. We own the Premier 31bhpr and love it. Had it 2 years and plan on many more. Same outside kitchen as the 32 I believe. It tows great and just looks good. We towed with a 150 for a year and it did great. Hope it works out, I think you will be happy with it.

We have owned a 2014 32BHPR for the past year. Used to own a 32BHL Springdale for 10 yrs prior. Although we enjoyed the Springdale when our 3 kids were younger, we love our Premier! We love the outdoor kitchen. Use it more than we thought. It is always handy to quickly wash hands or get the quick utensil. It is nice having the awning over it so that you can use even in the rain. It really saves on running in camper wear and tear. But when you do go inside, it is luxurious. It has unbelievable storage for all your needs. Still has bunks for older kids with large beds and headroom. Only minimal issues when picked up. You will find that with any trailer, but this one was minimal! I pull mine with GMC Sierra 6L with ease. Better hauling than my last camper. Good luck, this is a nice trailer!

I love my windows. Whole exterior much cleaner than last camper. Less streaking with seamless windows and you can leave open even with a a steady rain.

Only thing with the frameless, is that sometimes you have to tap the glass to pop the seal to open them.. Other than that, they're awesome.

Looked long and hard between the 32 BHPR and the Cougar 33RBI... Purchased the 33RBI wife and I looked over the floor plans and walked in and out for what felt like forever. I don't pick it up till middle of February. Wife wanted table and chairs.. (instead of the dinette) they had to build us one.. This is our first trailer, we decided the "back room" on the 33RBI would be more useful when our son got alittle older. Did you look at the 33RBI?

To ggrant119,
Looks like you made a great choice in the Cougar. Our first camper had the rear bedroom that served us well while our kids were growing up. But now that they are older (ages 20,18,&16) we love our Premier 32bhpr. They prefer to be with the adults now, and they love the larger beds. I see the Cougar also has the outdoor kitchen. Not having one on our first camper, I can't believe how we lived without one. Another thing to consider is the front slide on the Cougar. I am not sure how big the awning is, but this slide will decrease your awning space and you will prefer one that is over your outdoor kitchen. For some this may not be an issue, but we enjoy the outdoors even in the rain and the extra protection is nice to pull the picnic table under and have room to move around. We have never had the table and chairs, but I think that is a preference issue. But then again, all of it is. We have camped a lot with our family and I know what we like. I think the big thing is getting away to spend time with your family. We also considered the Cougars when we were looking. We chose the Premier and just love it. I think they are both nice trailers.

Our Premier is the small version, but we also have the frameless windows and really like them. They look sleek and can be left open even in a hard rain.

Our 2013 Premier 32BHPR, we switched all lights over to LED. We had an electrical issue where one of the bathroom lights wouldn't take the new LED bulb and blew the fuse so we have one light in there that is just turned off until we figure it out. Other than the door trim insulation issues (there was NO INSULATION around any of the exterior doors on our unit I would check yours to make sure you aren't in the same boat) we have been just peachy. We also had a lot of condensation build up in our top bunk so we installed a vent up there and no more issues with that! We added the vent cover and we are airing out nicely. We are living full-time in this unit as of July 2014 and love it. I have noticed with a few windows the knobs need a tighten here and there but I love these tinted frame less windows. Seriously though check the interior door trim to see if they actually put insulation in there.

on another note and speaking to the outdoor kitchen, is your countertop sagging? I parked next to another 31 Premier bunkhouse last week and thiers was and then I noticed mine was too.

We have a 2017 26RBPR and have had 2 of the frameless windows blow out. We had replaced the first one but hardware is separating from the glass so we will need to do it again as well. They look great but I hate to think everytime I use the unit, I will need to park it to replace another window. Anyone else had this issue?
