Hello everyone I am looking to buy a slide topper for my 2016 267bhsw. My slide out is 12ft but I was wondering what size should I get....thanks and HAPPY CAMPING!!!
Hi Tebeuler, Go www.makariosrv.com
they have a chart with recommendations as to the size that you should get. I purchased three last year from there for my 2017 Eagle HT 27.5RLTS. best pricing around.
I am trying to still figure out what I want to do....I have read great reviews and horrible ones...if anyone has any input please let me know...I want the good, bad and ugly on the details about these slide topper...
I had slide toppers on my old rig, and I really liked them. My new rig doesn't have them but we'll probably add them next year (I have to fight with my husband over whether we do that first or get the solar panels).
Pluses:
-no more wet from the rain being pulled into the trailer when we packed up to go home
-slightly quieter due to extra "layer" above the roof of the slide
-slide was much cleaner
Minuses:
-could not easily inspect top of slide anymore
-if we got snow or ice, needed to clear it off the toppers so they wouldn't get damaged and sag
Can't go wrong with slide toppers. They keep the unit warmer/cooler, keep down noise of rain, don't usually need to be cleaned off before putting slides in...So far we haven't been able to put on our present RV, but we're working on it. We feel it is a necessity.
We have slide toppers.
Pro's; Keeps slide cooler
protects top slide seal
keeps debris off slide
looks good
Con's; flaps in the wind? We have never experienced this
large slide toppers tend to pool water [which slides right off when retracted]
Get 'em, you'll love 'em.
