You can't begin to call a Class C a comparison to a Class A, Try full-timing in a Class C ...

We bought a used 2004 Concord 235S n 2005. It's a perfect size for two adults (sometimes with 2 grandkids). It drives like an SUV and has plenty of power going up hills. We've driven it places you wouldn't think of taking a big rig. We looked at a lot of B+ RV's before we decided on this unit and we love it!

I have had my 2007 Concord 300TS for two years. With the exception of some minor plumbing problems initially the coach has been trouble free. It is roomy, comfortable and has plenty of power. I tow a 2003 Buick Century and have had no problems. The ride is comfortable and I am very pleased with the quality of the unit. I agree with two previou comments. 1. The bathroom could be a little larger it is pretty tight. (Minor inconvenience) 2. Leveling jacks would be a real plus.

We've had our 2004 Concord 235 for about a year and have had very few problems with it. The construction appears to be very good and it is a pleasure to drive compared to the bus type Dolphin. Compared to other Coachmen products, this seems to be an unusually well-built rig. Wish I had the 300 with three slides, but maybe later. Would recommend.

Bought the '07 300TS and really enjoy just about everything about it. Plenty of room w/3 slides, sleeping area is fine but bathroom could be larger (small price to pay overall).
Absolute pleasure to drive around, including pulling toad. Plenty of power and quality is excellent so far. Highly recommend it.

I just wanted to add that buyer beware. I purchased my 2005 Concord 275DS from Giant Recreation World at Ormond Florida. We decided year later to see about upgrading bigger unit. They offered me trade on mine with 6000miles for $35,000. We paid out the door around $90,000. There is something really wrong with this picture. We still have the Concord. They also repair but will not tell you what they did. At over $85 an hour for service. I had blown fuse the stopped radio. They charged me $200 to replace the fuse. Just something for you to think about when making your considerations.

We bought our 27' 2005 275DS concord new in 05 and it has the diesel power stroke. It's a little tight for space but we do get good mileage 15-19mpg with toad jeep wrangler. I try to keep the water and holding tanks down to minimum for trips and fill at destination. We had a roof leak and generator problem fixed at dealer. We are having problems with the exterior skin of the coach. Manufacture warranty did repair and had unit for long time. We really like the unit and the way it drives. We have property in the back country we travel to and it is easy to handle. The one thing it should have is the auto levelers. Getting setup level is a pain in the butt.

The only negative comment I have is; I don't care for the stove next to the sofa. It could be hazardous & a cleaning problem.

I'll be picking up a used 2004 Concord 235, downsizing from a '99 35-foot Dolphin. The Dolphin is just too big to unwieldy on the road (for me, anyway). Trying to take it down tree-lined streets was an adventure. I'm hoping to get good service with the Concord and be able to take it places I couldn't take the Dolphin. Will update later.

We have a 2005 Concord that we traded for our 2002 40' Fleetwood American Dream. The Fleetwood was just too big, too expensive to own and operate and too many problems. We looked at everything we could in smaller coaches and decided on the Concord. For a start, it gets about 13 mpg compared to the Fleetwood 7 mpg (if we were lucky). We love it!!! We've had almost ZERO problems in almost 2 years. At this stage with the American Dream we'd had dozens of problems. Unless you're a fulltimer why would you want a 40' monster, our Concord is great for touring. 2 thumbs up!!!

This is a really nice coach. The 3 slides on the floorplan shown look great. We have a 2005 Concord 275DS with 2 slides and we like it very much. The large bay window at the back is really nice. The quality and fittings of the Concord are good. We had a few electrical problems to start with but they were all taken care of by the dealer. I wish we had the 3 slides shown in the floorplan but all in all I like our 2 slide coach very much and I recommend the Concord.
