First Trip Observations / Questions

Finally able to take our first trip with our 2016 Jayflight 29RKS, after purchasing new in April!
Everything worked great. My 2016 F250 diesel did an outstanding job towing. Averaged 11 mpg.
Need help with a couple of observations?
Our residential queen bed in the front ,with under bed storage ,seems to sag in the middle. Need recommendations on adding support if anyone else has experienced a similar problem?
Our shower unit is in corner with curved doors. We noticed in one of the corners of the pan a soft spot. Is this something to be concerned about?

Thanks for the help!

Glad the TT and TV are playing nice and your trip went well.

Our bed sagged, too. Our dealer replaced the framing underneath with larger lumber. I believe they used 2"x3". That fixed the sag for us.

I don't know if this is a usual Jayco fix or something our dealer did. It was done when several other warranty items were addressed and the dealer never mentioned it when we picked the trailer up.

For a quick fix for the bed you can make yourself a 2x3 or 2x4 brace underneath the frame to keep the weight on that and not sag.

yeah that was my thought as well. My wife would like the underbed storage partitioned, so I'm thinking i could partition it and use that as support for the middle of the bed.
