Building my Christmas list. Newbie with new trailer
We bought a 26BHS and love it.
Now, what are the essentials I need to put on the ole Christmas list.
Already have the hoses.
I'm thinking:
Leveling blocks
New thermostat
Looking for more suggestions so I can pass out the list in a few weeks to the fam.
Thanks!

Water filter,Tire Pressure Monitoring System, 20 to 30 amp adapter. There are several items one can use to make life easier but not strictly necessities. I have a public shopping list on amazon that I use for when I run across something I think might benefit our experience

That is my current list. We have been vamping for a while and have most of the necessities already so you might not find much useful but it may give you some ideas. What helps me is that if I find something remotely interesting I will add it and then go back and review it later to see if I need it now or want to ask as a gift. As an example we just bought our new trailer in May so I added some things to it and then when I bought them I removed them

The stock shower head has no real pressure, regardless of water pressure to the coach. . The Oxygenics gives a good spray with nice pressure, even if the CG water pressure is low.
The stock shower head reminds me of the Seinfeld episode when they all got low flow shower heads. Lol!

Great stuff. Is there a model that you'd recommend on Amazon?
I love the idea of improving the shower and would enjoy a good recommendation.
Happy wife, happy life!
