Looked at this model today and it definitely looks like it would fit the bill especially when it comes to finding a TV.

However, where do people brush their teeth? Shave? On the kitchen sink?

What about cutlery and cooking utensils? No drawers?

Looks like you can reach through the doors under the bed into the front belly storage. Does it work to have baskets or boxes there for clothing?

Thanks

Check out the Lance owners forum. There are quite a few people there that have the 1575's and I'm sure they can give you ideas.

There are plenty of lance owners here too. Folks have done the toilet spit for brushing teeth for many years. You can search user Cpaharley. He has many good posts to read and is a lance owner. Welcome to the forum Skelshy!

This is a free site. You may have to wait a day or two before they check your id out. I'm interested in the Lance too --- just don't have any dealers close that have one.

I take it you are not an owner of any type of RV before this? I currently have a popup. Definitely no drawers, closets, or handy storage on board.
The answer to your questions depends on how you camp. We always use public bathrooms for all personal clean up. We have used, on occasion, the sink on the pup.
A common way to store some kitchen items are plastic bins and we use (again, very common), a 3-tier plastic bin setup which holds most of the small, day-to-day items used in for food prep and eating. It sits on the dinette table.
IF you are new to RV'ing, you may want to post questions in the thread for 'newbies' (Beginning RVing) to which you'll get all kinds of good advice.

Thanks. We were comparing the 1575 with other models with more conveniently located storage such as actual drawers. From the responses I take it the issues can be worked around at the cost of convenience and clutter. Thanks to all who responded

I own a lance 1575 and all I can say is there is a ton of storage space hidden around the TT. Cutlery goes neatly into the drawers hidden behind the cabinet under the sink.
We have found that we like to put tupperware tubs in the different cabinets in order to keep things organized.
Overall we have much more cabinet space then stuff to put in the cabinets.

And we have no issue using the kitchen sink for brushing and shaving.

There is a closet next to the refer you can put some shelves or plastic bins for clothes, the dinette has under seat storage and you have access to the underbid also. there is a lot of storage available under the bed, dinette and the kitchen. the bath has a medicine cabinet for your toiletries. there are 3 shelves under the countertop and the over heads have a shelf. I doubt you will run out of room
