Class A motorhomes are considered the top tier of RVs, since they combine an incredibly spacious interior with luxury amenities to make the living space as comfortable – and as close to taking your actual home with you – as possible! One obvious downside to larger-than-life class A motorhomes though is that their gargantuan size can make it tricky to maneuver in tight spots on your travels.
Choosing the best Class A motorhome for you won’t just entail the technical aspects of driving one – you also need to look into your preferred floor plan to find a layout you’re comfortable with and do your research into the interior facilities of each toe ensure you’ll have everything you need on the open road.
Thankfully with smaller Class A vehicles that measure under 35 feet, you don’t have to make the choice between comfort or smoother handling, as smaller class A motorhomes are the best of both worlds. You should consider the commitment and factors that come with buying a Class A RV though – are you comfortable driving a vehicle this size and does your license permit it? Do you have the budget?

2019 Thor Freedom Traveler A30
The Freedom Traveler RV by Thor is just under 32 feet long, but the full wall slide-out really makes a difference to the living space.
Speaking of maximizing space, this Thor RV features a power-controlled drop-down bunk over the cab area to instantly give the driver and passenger oodles more headroom compared to other fixed styles of over-cab beds.
The chassis area is pretty cool all-round, with a retractable coffee table and flip-out table at the passenger side to serve as a work station.
The Freedom Traveler is a very social-orientated RV since there are multiple cup holders dotted around, including some behind the jack-knife sofa, so even guests sitting far from a table will always have a place to rest their drinks.
Entertaining guests and kids is no problem when you also have an electrical outlet and HDMI cable inside a storage cabinet above your sofa, so you’re ready to set up a DVD/Blu-ray player to enjoy on the 40 inch TV above the dinette.
For the smaller size of A Class, we’re also impressed by how comfortable the bathroom is with a large glass corner shower and generous storage space at the sink.
The master bedroom is also well-built with plenty of wardrobe and closet space surrounding the Queen bed, plus a 32-inch TV built into the cabinet which flips up to reveal yet more storage space.

There is a full-sized broom cupboard, pantry and multiple drawers at the kitchenette for plenty of food storage and place for your cooking utensils.
The ACE 27.2 can sleep 8 thanks to a dream dinette, sofa bed and an over-cab bunk which retracts you don’t need it and family entertainment is covered thanks to the 3 LED TVs on board (including an external 32 inch screen to enjoy under the power awning).
To help traveling families find enough space in the RV, Thor has included neat little storage and space-saving solutions such as the flip out table at the passenger side of the chassis for an extra spot to for your on-road snacks or to do some work on the go and storage drawers in the dinette seating.
The bathroom in the Motor Coach ACE may seem a tad pokier compared to other A Classes, but where it lacks floor space, it makes up in attractive décor (a porcelain toilet versus plastic for a more residential feel) and a pull-out storage drawer in the shower well.

The 2020 Coachmen Mirada prioritizes safety and comfort for an RV that’s driver and family-friendly.
First off, it has a tight turning radius with a sharp wheel cut to aid general maneuvering and parking and a great safety feature while you’re driving the coach is that your windshield screen will only come down far enough to keep the sun out of your eyes whenever the engine is on. Swiveling chairs in the cockpit also make the chassis super accessible and comfortable to get in and out of.
As for family-friendly features, kids will greatly appreciate the Wi-Fi boost system on board, which boosts the signal of your Wi-Fi up to a mile and a half away, so staying connected is easy if you’re far away from a camping ground.
lus, outside speakers built into the LED-lit awning will make a great place to hang out and enjoy your external HD TV while Dad fires up the grill at the external kitchen.
For an A Class measuring just over 30 feet, the Mirada is incredibly well-equipped with all the amenities you could need plus extra touches.

True to Coachmen style the 2019 Mirada 32SS model is a motorhome that puts the emphasis on home opposed to vehicle. The interior décor has a residential-style throughout – from the traditional lamp lighting in the main living area to the frosted glass pantry and porcelain toilet and glass corner shower in your bathroom.
To make things even more comfortable, your main seating area is a large L-shaped lounge couch to accommodate extra guests. Plus, it even doubles as an extra bed (which is perhaps most comfortable for one, but two small kids who don’t mind sleeping top to tails could perhaps fit here too!).
Other homely touches as you move through the Mirada coach include the fireplace below your LED TV for a cozier feel, and this can be used instead of your main furnace if you like, since it’s powerful enough to keep everyone toasty in the living area. A full-sized residential refrigerator, spacious counter-tops and 3 ways to cook your meals will also make this RV a home on the road.
With a King size master bedroom, dream dinette and a retractable over-cab bunk, you have a total sleep count of 7 in the Mirada.

The Winnebago Vista LX measures 30 feet across and has 3 slide-outs to make the best of its space. Families of 4 to 6 could sleep comfortably here thanks to a Queen master bed, True-comfort sofa bed and even a retractable studio loft bunk above the cab area.
Where family travelers may run into an issue though is that the shower and toilet are housed in separate rooms – while this may not be such a big deal as a traveling couple, this could feel cramped and a tad messy with small kids in tow.
Elsewhere, the Winnebago Vista is a pretty well-designed motorhome with great space-saving elements. Starting in the chassis, you have a flip-out table at the passenger side with cup holders and storage cubbies galore for maps, phones etc.
And instead of a dinette booth, you have a slide-out dining table with 2 free-standing dining chairs, and when these chairs aren’t in use (for a cook-out under the awning, for instance), then the sideboard has a retractable LED TV to enjoy from the sofa opposite. Or else, retract the TV back into the counter-top and use the space as a buffet table or work station.
The Vista LX has great storage potential and removable furniture for more versatile use of your RV when you arrive at camping ground. You also have a decent kitchenette and comfortable sleeping quarters to suit couples and families of 4 or more.

You also have a vast amount of closet and drawer space, plus an LED TV above the vanity that flips up itself to reveal yet more storage space to store a DVD or Blu-ray player.
To accommodate as many family members as possible while out on the open road, Forest River has included a residential-style double-door refrigerator which is new to the 2020 model – this thing could hold enough food for a fortnight of camping! There are also 2 slide-out counter-tops at each end of the long kitchenette for even more space while cooking.
On the downside, the bathroom is pretty small for an A Class trailer of this size, so this may not be a case of “more the merrier” with many kids on board. For sheer size, comfort and entertainment value everywhere else though (2 AC units, 2 sofa beds and 4 TVs in total), this is a pretty sweet deal.

As for a standard entertainment feature, the Alante 27A has an outdoor entertainment system consisting of a widescreen LED TV complete with speakers and a stereo system, plus power outlets for DVD and mp3 connectivity – a sure-fire hit with kids big and small!
Accommodating your kids stuff will be no problem with all the overhead cabinets and generous storage in the master bedroom too – a double mirrored wardrobe and deep drawers surrounding the bed.

And speaking of traveling with young kids, the over-cab drop-down bunk (which operates as quietly as a mouse!) comes with padded railings to prevent little ones rolling out of bed at night.
As for enjoying entertainment with the family, you have a choice between enjoying your LED TV from your theater seating with cup holders for a cozy movie night or – when the weather’s good – your external TV and entertainment center which combines with your external kitchen to make a great spot for family barbecues while kids watch their favorite shows.

Other residential features in the Jayco Precept include the cozy theater seating in the living room and the full-size wardrobes and closet space you get in the master King bedroom.
You should note that the toilet room in the Precept 31UL is separate from the shower which could be a drawback for some, but thankfully the toilet area has great storage capacity in the form of ample drawer and cabinet space beneath the sink vanity and a double door mirrored medicine cabinet up top. Nice touches like a ring hook for your towels and a large window may also help sugar the pill here too.
To extend the living space when you have guests or all the family in tow, the dinette booth, lounge area and master bed are each in a slide-out and even when the RV is at full capacity, you can take the party outside thanks to your outdoor entertainment center of a widescreen LED TV on a pivot bracket with external speakers – sure to be a hit with young kids and grumpy teens!
