Hey everyone welcome back to another video! Today I am super excited we are taking a look at this awesome class B+ Motorhome the Jayco Melbourne Prestige 24RP! Now what I love about Jayco is that they gave you a CHOICE! You can get this Motorhome with the bunk over cab or you can option it with storage over the cab and when you do that it removes the bulky bunk and it makes a nice smooth profile! I love the fact that Jayco gave you choices and options!
I prefer bunk over the cab, but even if it wasn't for sleeping on, I like having that open space for storage, rather than having cabinets up there. Can pack some outdoor items that won't fit in a cabinet, like an inflatable kayak or SUP, a bike or two, musical instruments, etc.
agree I like the open space to make the storage how I want.
I find that the cab over makes me feel claustrophobic and makes the rig seem "tippy".
During the height of the pandemic in early 2020 when most of us in the United States were confined to our homes for almost 3 months, I came across Matt's RV Review channel after watching some videos of Van Life. Matt has such high energy and really funny when he speaks that it's hard to change the channel and I can see why the channel is closing in on 200k subscribers. I won't be surprised in in 2 years the channel will hit 1 million subscribers. Keep up the good work Matt and Andrea.
I find it really funny that he, Matt does the superman jump prior to the RV tours and reviews. Andrea is also awesome, and they have such great chemistry when doing the tours and reviews. I can actually feel the anxiousness of Andrea when making the corner towards the back of the RV if there's a ladder that leads to the roof because she knows that Matt's about to go up the roof and it can get dangerous specially going down from the roof. I'm sure that Andrea wishes that there isn't a ladder at the back every time they do a review...LOL.
I like the originality of the 3 things that we love about the RV and the 3 things we dislike about the RV. Also, they don't mind if they disagree on what they like or dislike about the RV. Also, the triple P's are great...Prime Pooping Positions. Give me porcelain or give me death. "Is this picture...art deco"?
I can't afford any of the RV's being reviewed just yet, but I will continue to watch the channel because it's a great entertainment for me and my son. Perhaps one day I'll come down to Florida and get one class-c and drive it back to Virginia.
I would choose no bunk. I want the extra storage, because I'm a solo traveler. Additionally it's easier to not have that overhang for a first-time rver. I feel like it will be easier to drive when I don't have that extra distraction above the bunk.
The bunk over cab offers so much more versatility, and it also offers a much larger area for storage👍
Matt, I agree...bunk over the cab...you can use it for storage or for bringing one of the grandkids! (Jane in SC)

Can I invest from Australia
Hello 👋
How favourable is the market now . I want to invest in cryptocurrency
Can I start with $6000
This one is spacious!
Agreed! I love the bunk over the cab, love that it has 2 carseat hooks and how easy it was to set up the bed!
Very nice. This was the size RV I initially thought I would buy, but decided we needed bigger because we planned to do monthly stays in Florida in the Winter. Likes: warranty, benz, paint, wind sensing awning, cabinets, prefer the storage over bunk, storage under couch, tv position, dislikes: no external tv, no ladder (deal breaker), wet bay door (deal breaker) , msrp (can get a nice Class C for less), ccc, no oven, window where headboard should be at head of bed, plastic shower 'door' (deal breaker).
If they had a slightly smaller sink and angled the toilet slightly it would work much better! Kitchen is great but I completely agree about the refrigerator!
Definitely choosing the bunk. More versatile and a window! Bathroom needs reworking. Nice colours and layout.
The bunk bed can give you both!
So beginning with the upper bunk, order professional oversized storage cubes (guessing 5). Once filled, line them all up in a perfect row on top of the bunk bed, spanning all the way from one side to the other side. You can pull this off so well it'll look like Jayco put this together! Then simply move them to the passenger seats when the overhead bunk is needed! It's a win-win!!!
Storage over the cab!!!! That was AWESOME!!!!!!
I agree! At first, I wasn't a fan. But after thinking it over, I do like the storage over the cab. Especially, for a solo, full-time RV traveler.
Thanks Matt and Andrea. I like every thing you liked, my dislikes are small, tight bathroom, price, and price! Too expensive for small motor home. I just as well get a small class A motor home. Oh well, still looking!
I like the overhead bunk model. You have a bunk for guests, of course, but you have a lot more storage space than the non-bunk model, in this area. This model of RV doesn't have too much storage in the bedroom area, so I would use the bunk storage area for suitcases or plastic bins for clothing.
Matt, on your last video of the Baystar you were seriously on one.. you were crazy with jokes and voices and looks at the camera.. glad to see you’re back in this video.. lol.. you and Andrea are both so good-! I see how hard you guys work for America..! Respect Yo! I’m talkin’ here..
Thank you ☺️
Best Class B+ floorplan that I have ever seen, blowing the doors off of any Class B sardine can on the market👍👍👍
I prefer the storage over the cab. Would really love if there could be storage over the cab AND a skylight!
I wish there was a way to substitute the sofa, for maybe a love seat, maybe put in a full size bed, and add a washer/dryer. I'm leaning towards the bunk up front, because I like all the light. If it were me, I'd probably pull out the cushions and use it for storage. I'm really liking the Class B's over the Class C's because there's more practical space. Oh, and I love what they did with the TV. The whole floor plan worked out great.
I absolutely love the cabinetry , love the euro look. I do wish they had more and bigger storage outside storage space , where you could have a nometic ref / freezer. but realize this is not possible unless you can actually make these taller. oh well can't have everything in something this small but do love this class b+
In 2021, we cancelled our Melbourne Prestige order and went with the Thor Gemini 23TW and glad we did. Ford Transit chassis, AWD, twin turbo gas engine and much better cargo carrying capacity. Also, the Gemini has much better tech for house controls. Finally, the cost was about 40k less than the Prestige.
Always amazes me when the MSRP is less than a Winnebago Revel Class B Van when you get so much more in these RVs.
I would take whichever (storage or bed) gave me more CCC
he ignores andrea a lot lol, she says what about the ccc and he just moves on lol, she even said it twice and he'll just ignore it lmaooo he does it every video, cracks me up lol
Hi Matt and Andrea! Great Rv! My dislikes are the wet bay outside under the slide the toilet being tight against the wall. The refrigerator too small. My likes are the choices of bunk or sliding cabinets. The Murphy bed and countertop are my likes. Thank you Matt and Andrea!
Main competitor to this is winnebago Navion 24D. Side by side comparison and Winnebago wins hands down.
Just once, in one of these reviews, I’d love to see them make up the bed, and have an average size person get into it in a sleeping position. The beds always look small.
Love your reviews! I like the kitchen counter space, plus the Murphy bed and the storage. The things I wasn’t excited about would be the location of the toilet (too close to the wall) plus the refrigerator was too small and the outside storage needed different doors to access.
I like the storage over the cab. I don't really need a bunk over the cab . It's where the entertainment center is and storage. I do like the counter space ,but the bath is small, I'm 6'6" and need a little more space. Mine is a little tight in the shower but k make do . I have a 26 foot Lexington .
I don't like that outside door, either. The refrigerator is fine. I love this except I don't like a dinette. The storage cabinets over the cab option is great!
Great storage. Looks pretty good. Great review guys. Happy Friday everyone.
I like the size. Glad there is a choice on the cab. I would have to actually see it in person to choose.
Not a fan of the Murphy bed. I would prefer a daybed type set up. Where you don’t have to fold anything. That’s a really sweet rig!
Absolutely love the cabinets. Sleek and easy to clean.
I am NOT a fan of Murphys (how YOU doin'?), but this layout and positive comment from Matt makes me rethink my options.
I'd go bunk over cab a) sunlight, b) sleeping area and c) you can store stuff anyway so what's the diff. Having said that, the "European" rollout shelves were pretty cool. 👍
You guys are always a hoot to watch and I'll never understand why Andrea hates opening those bottom drawers, but I love what you guys do. 👏👏👏
P.S. Where was the art deco on the Murphy? 🤔
The bathroom is depressing. I like the way the whole thing is laid out. I Love the Bed over the Cab. Love You Two. You two are So Great together
Hey Matt this is Leonard from NC I like the bunk over the cab! But the reason why is I'm a truck driver, I have been driving 18wheelets since 2009! So I like the bunk
Bunk over cab. Murphy bed is nice, but too short. Cabinetry is beautiful!
we own a Jayco before and the small fridge was a pain in the ass for us with the kids even or so. ..my son has a Jayco trailer but I thin k his fridge is larger ..great video
Angled decorative mirror, the kind with a pattern so you can't really see your reflection, positioned to reflect the light from the window would really open up that toilet space.
Perfect sized motorhome and it would be a perfect motor home if only the outside storage doors were side-opening and the storage under the dinette had drawers. All the same features of Mercedes vehicles makes it a pleasure to drive. I like that there are no flimsy legs on the Murphy bed and I like the bunk over the cab. The tp holder is definitely too far away for us shorties who are the ones who will fit in that tiny bathroom-haha. Thanks again for a well-done review.
I still prefer the Entegra Odyssey 26MB. It still has a better floorplan. It has an outside kitchen, a U-shaped dinette, a TV AND a fireplace across from the sofa. It might not be on the Mercedes but that only makes it less expensive.
Nice RV. I would definitely go with the storage over the cab. Don’t need the bunk. Love the option.
In general I don’t get excited over class B or B+ size RV’s. This could be a exception.
❤️ Bunk over the cab.
❤️ storage cabinets over the dinette
❤️ decent counter space.
👎It’s a class B
👎Murphy Bed
👎Outside Shower
😱MSRP is outrageous
😱 Sales price isn’t much better.
My dream RV. I would like a fireplace though.
Another excellent video. A lot to like about this Motorhome.
For me- the bunk over the cab makes it more versatile. You can take a grandchild, or in our case, if a friend joins us somewhere along the trip, they can spend a night up there. You still have the versatility for bunk storage.
I like the counter space, drivability, overall layout and the bed looks reasonably comfortable.
I agree with Matt, that the space to the bathroom wall is very tight.
Outside storage door needs to swing out, not up.
Cargo Carrying capacity?? 950 or 1400? 900 is a deal breaker for us.
Thank you for another excellent video
They should swap the toilet and the sink position in the bathroom and I think it would work fine.
"Stop fast forwarding the video"
Me who just forwarded a little bit: 👀
Storage over the cab
Very similar to the smaller models made by Sunliner, AVIDA, Apollo and Jayco in Australia. Difference we not great fans of the Mercedes, but use the IVECO, Renault and DUCATO bases. Much larger Class C's use Japanese Truck bases.
Bunk over the cab. Doesn't limit the storage space like the cabinets do
This is a really nice Class B+ motor home! I would like to say maybe if they made the sink and vanity smaller you could angle the toilet and achieve a PPP! Also I agree, the fridge is way too small! The wet hookup area is not well placed either, agree again. I think the price is too much. Great vlog guys and thanks! Today you both were sweating to the oldies with Matt & Andrea (all you needed was Richard Simmons to be there! haha!).
Even tiny Richard Simmons wouldn't fit in that bathroom.
🤣
I’ve got a leisure travel van Murphy bed (FX) love the floor plan!
I've never owned or drove RV but I'd rather have bunk over. Cabinet nice but the bunk over is more convenient
Bunk over the cab is my favorite
The refrigerator is a deal breaker for me! WAMP, WAMP, WAMP! Along with the outside storage doors! Otherwise, I absolutely love this motorhome!
Hi everyone!
Matt and Andrea great energy love the RV!!😀
Storage would be my choice
The bunk over cab is perfect for big bags of shift....like a giant trash can to go with the cabinet big enough for a trash can. Funny how you always say “they’re giving you” like the rv is free
I would like the storage over the cab.
I guess it depends on how many people will be sleeping in the camper as to whether or not to get the bunk over the cab.
Hey Matt and Andrea! If you have kids/grandkids then get bunk, if not then not. Problem, as always with Merc’s is tge CCC. If only 900 lbs, then no bunk. If 1400, then would get bunks. Looked for a comment with actual CCC but did not see it. Need to fix that low CCC to make this really workable for us. Stay safe!
I like bunk over cab - but want a gasoline rv with the exact size overall &ref rig
Just a quick question! When can expect to receive my porcelain t shirt? I haven't gotten it yet.
I prefer the bunk on top. You can use it for storage, but still have the option to use it as a bunk
I'm thinking the toilet and sink should be switched. And the toilet should face the sink & shower. The top bunk looks better but I need storage. Great video!
doors on slide side need to open all the way horizontally.
First comment 😆. I like this but I feel the price is a bit too much.
Congratulations
The bunk vs cabinet is why different cargo capacity
Not enough power outlets
Don't know if it has solar power for boondocking
I prefer the storage over the bunk because there's just 2 of us.
It has plenty of room for my dog kennel.
I do like how much weight the overhead bunk can handle
Don't like the way the left outside storage doors open.
What is up with those exterior doors not opening all the way? How could you possibly use that wet bay ??
Matt, you win one you lose one. We would choose the bunk over cab, but The toilet paper IS a far reach. Love this one even with the negatives.
Without question it’s the bunk over. Storage and real estate.
Three Things We Like, Counter Space, Over the Cab Option (we will take the dynomite storage option instead of the Bed above the cab), Two Burner Stove. Three things we dislike about this unit (love the slam latch but) doors under the slide out that are needed!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Absorption Fridge, this is so YESTERDAY!!!!!!!!! SLIDE OUT, nice space but when is a slide-out going to fail.......when you most need it, and a number 4, it is not a Pleasure Way Plateau, oh ya, they do not make the XLMB any more, that is the measure of a C, or B+!
LIKE THE KITCHEN THE COLORS THE QUEEN MURPHY BED DON’T LIKE THE COOKTOP IT NEEDS THREE BURNERS THE SMALL REFRIGERATOR THE WETBAY OUTSIDE DOOR THE SMALL BATHROOM MATT AND ANDREA LIKE THE CABINETS FOR MORE STORAGE MATT AND ANDREA CAN I SEE THE OTHER ONE IN A VIDEO PLEASE
love the storage over the cab. wish it was an option on more models!! Too bad about that much too small space for the toilet
Love the counter space!!!!! Wowee!! BUT there's no oven! Hate the microwave. God the counter space is awesome! The tp holder is to far away! If an oven wants in this thing, I'd seriously consider.....
Storage over the cab. I hate the wet bay! The toilet is a problem. Matt is relatively short. I bigger person would have a very difficult time.
I love the option of storage instead of bunk bed especially the slide boxes. I have to agree with 3 pros and cons. The toilet placement keeps us from considering a purchase. Hub is 6'5 the toilet just will not work. However all said I really like the unit.
I would much prefer the bunk I can use the bunk as storage but have it as a backup bed just in case, you can't use the cupboards as a backup bed LOL
Gotta have the bunk over the cab, really like the lay out on this one. For how small it is.
We have a bunk over the cab, and it's great.
I prefer the storage over the cab.
Love the colors and interior; but the that tiny fridge has to go. And need more room for the toilet. Also the outside storage needs to have swinging doors instead of doors that lift up. To hard to get to.
Bunk over the cab. Then you have the choice between storage or a non paying customer sleeping spot
Interesting unit.
WoW... Like the price.
Already has tankless hwt, so I'm good with that.
That is huge, when opened up.
Love the middle screen for radio and gps, it's a great model.
I think I would rather cabinets over the cab, except i would like to see the TV, in the center space with smaller cabinets on either side..
Nice dinette. Nice sofa. Love the storage under the sofa.
Hope you don't need something in the drawers when the bed is down.
Kitchen kinda small, but so is the whole unit.
I definately do not stand to wipe....lol
Otherwise a great little unit.
Nice review
I like the exterior colors
Bunk over the cab serves 2 purposes (sleeping + storage) so why not have both options? Plus if you really just want storage the bunk will still offer more space - maybe just not as secured.
Hey so here we go with a class B+ .:. We got 👍🏽👍🏽 HEATED SEATS CANADA 🇨🇦 🇺🇸 the Mercedes cockpit rocks it out 👍🏽👍🏽 .:. (Now for the regular likes) .:. Bunk over the cab 👍🏽 more sleeping capacity and the only way to boondock; rear bathroom 👍🏽 full width; paint job 👍🏽 rocks the exterior; bonus we sleep 5, seat 5 👍🏽 and eat 5 .:. Small cooktop 👎🏽 and we’d trade some space for a bigger fridge (freezer); sofa feels too close👎🏽 to the TV; tough to access generator and wet bay 👎🏽 under the slide out - side swing is better, outboard hinges inboard latches 💯; bonus 👎🏽 no roof access .:. at less than $200 grand MSRP we can get a bigger class C with double the ccc 👎🏽👍🏽 we can take the Melbourne downtown for dinner and parallel park on the street #vanlife .:. Thanks for the review M/A
Can the bed stay down with the extension in? Instead of being out.
Absolutely bunk it's big plus imo 👌
Bunk for sure!
I wish they would make a corner bed model like the Winnebago View 24J or Coachmen 24CB, these full wall slides kill the CCC, I think the 900lbs is probably right. The corner bed also helps with the pitiful outside storage too. The cabinetry is just beautiful though, really gorgeous. Agree on the drawers under the dinette. I think I would choose no bunk overhead, seems less intimidating to drive. And your stuff can't fall down, even if you can't fit as much as the open bunk. For 165k, I think I would pass solely on the DINKY fridge alone, listen up Jayco! I just passed up a fairly decent deal on a Coachmen 24CB due to the dinky fridge.
I love the corner beds too! I don’t think they put enough thought into how the end user is planning on using these sometimes. On their behalf I will say that sometimes they put in less storage space because if it’s all used and the tanks are filled it would quickly be over the cargo carrying capacity. Most folks are exceeding their recommended capacities as it is which can lead to disasters and causes lots of extra wear and tear.
The bathroom sucks but the kitchen is very nice. This would be good for folks that plan to use the bath house at campgrounds most of the time and want the open floor space for pets tho. If someone had cats they could cut a cat hole under the dinette seat for the litter box and those kitties would love that bunk!
TP holder is too far away Matt.
And we like the storage instead of the bunk over cab
I would never choose black
This if difficult if I do have my 3 grandchildren with me I need the bed and the cub boards 😂
No hinges under the dinette seats, no problem. Go to Home Depot and for about $25.00 you buy a pair of piano hinges and screw them down. I did that to my Entegra Vision. The price is too much for what you get.
Not a fan of the Euro cabinets, with the shine, the curve, it seems like they are too long and you have to back your head up to open. I like the option of no Bunk, but wish those cabinets were larger. And that wet bay, that door is very inconvenient. All those things make me want to "move on".
I will say, the Murphy bed, the bathroom (with exception of the toilet), kitchen counter space, and the Murphy bed, are all tops! (I had to mention Murphy bed twice.)
I prefer no bunk. But I don’t like the Murphy beds. Wish they’d figure it out.
i like storage, always!!!!!
Storage overhead. I don't understand people trying to cram four, five,six.... people in these small motorhomes
