Not every travel trailer needs a wild floorplan or a long list of gimmicks to attract buyers. The Coachmen Apex Ultra-Lite sticks with a traditional approach, and that’s a big reason why it continues to sell across a wide range of floor plans. From compact couples’ trailers to large family bunkhouses, the lineup combines manageable towing weight with enough interior space to feel comfortable on longer trips. Find out what you need to know in this comprehensive overview of used Coachmen Apex Ultra-Lite features.
Key Takeaways
- Floor plans range from 23 feet to over 34 feet, with options for couples, families, and everyone in between.
- Furrion appliances are common across the lineup.
- The Apex-Lite sticks to a more traditional design than a modern one.
A Kitchen Focused on Storage and Counter Space
Across the lineup, kitchens are well-equipped and practical. Furrion handles most of the appliances on the majority of models, including 12-volt DC compressor refrigerators, ovens, vent hoods, and air conditioners. Some models also use a Furrion control setup, which many RV owners prefer over older Dometic systems that have developed a mixed reputation over the years.
The kitchens make up for any limitations in usable space. Cabinet storage is ample throughout, and counter space tends to run larger than expected for the lightweight category. The backsplash also extends beyond the stove and continues behind the sink on most models, giving the kitchen a more finished appearance.
A Bathroom Built Around Usable Space
Bathroom placement varies across the lineup. Many floor plans stretch the bath across the full rear width of the trailer, creating more open floor space than most mid-size travel trailers offer. Others shift the bathroom toward the middle to accommodate bunk rooms or alternate living configurations. Buyers looking for a larger bathroom setup will probably notice the difference right away, regardless of which floor plan they choose.
The sink area across most models includes a generous amount of surrounding counter space, leaving room for toiletries, small appliances, or extra storage containers. A built-in linen closet adds even more storage in the bathroom area on most floor plans. At the opposite end of the trailer, bedroom configurations vary — most include a queen-size bed with hanging closets on either side, though exact layouts differ by model.
How Is the Apex Ultra-Lite Built?
The Apex Ultra-Lite uses solid pocket-screwed cabinetry throughout the interior, giving it a sturdier feel than many lightweight competitors. The floor uses a laminated design intended to reduce the likelihood of water damage. The walls use Azdel composite laminates on both the interior and exterior. The roof also uses laminated construction, which remains popular because of its lighter weight and added rigidity.
What’s the Slide Access and Tank Setup Like?
Most of the Apex Ultra-Lite is accessible with the slide retracted. It houses both the U-shaped dinette and either theater seating or a sofa, depending on the floorplan.
The trailer holds fresh water and gray water. The gray water system is split between separate kitchen and bathroom tanks, each with its own dump valve, adding another step during setup and breakdown at campsites.
Are You Ready to See the Apex Ultra-Lite in Person?
There’s a reason floor plans from this line never really disappear from dealer lots. The Apex Ultra-Lite stays focused on usable space, solid construction, and practical design instead of chasing trends, and for plenty of campers, that’s probably the better move. Contact Travers St Louis RV today!
