Hi CT Readers
I am thinking of buying a newer, even a new motorhome and wonder why nearly all manufacturers use such light colours for the soft furnishings? It is so very impractical, even more so if you have a dog or dogs, as many people who own caravans and M/Hs do. You only need to be caught in the rain to end up treading dirty footprints onto the carpet and/or dripping water onto the seating which on such light coloured, fabric, may easily leave a stain.
I have just spotted a new M/H, far more than I want to pay but I could persuade myself if I was very enamoured of it, however, the furnishings are a very light grey with a very thin line of a burgundyish, colour. Personally, I would much prefer the burgundyish colour, for all of the furnishings, with a light grey trim and a burgundyish carpet, rather than the light grey and it would be way more practical. If that had been the case, I would definitely have considered purchasing it as the interior of the van itself is of a type I am looking for
Are light coloured furnishings really what customers want, or is it just me who is not that keen on them?
