We rented the Columbus from Tom and Marisca as our very first camper experience. We were shown in advance via handy videos how most things in and around the camper worked in practice. The pick-up went smoothly and after loading our own things we were soon on our way to the Ardennes. The Columbus drives and maneuvers very smoothly and can easily keep up on the highway. Inside there is a surprising amount of storage space. The refrigerator is large enough to store food for a few days. We even took a 12V fridge with us to cool some extra drinks. We had a very nice and carefree week in which we got to know the motorhome better and better. After this first experience, I fear that we are currently infected with the motorhome virus for life. Time flew by and fortunately Tom and Marisca were very flexible in the time of return, which allowed us to really make optimal use of the camper. Despite the fact that we really enjoyed it, we did notice a few points of improvement on the Columbus. We discussed this with Tom and Marisca when returning the camper and will mention them here in our review for the sake of honesty: * The fly screen on the sliding door is difficult to open and close and needs to be repaired. * The roof window does not close 100% and the window at the dining area could not be opened due to a defect. * The GPS could use an update. * The float of the fresh water tank does not work 100% correctly, so it is a bit of a guess as to the exact water level. * The awning slat needs to be checked * The bed slats need to be replaced due to sagging. * We personally also found that the existing inventory of kitchen utensils was very worn out. We therefore replaced most of it with our own camping gear. As indicated, these are all comments/suggestions with a view to optimizing the enjoyment of using the camper. No insurmountable problems. Hence the 4 stars. Once tackled, the Columbus certainly deserves a big *****! August 2024
