Living Area Features

The living area in this travel trailer has a three-seater sofa that’s perfect for relaxing and chatting. What’s even better, it doubles as a sleeper for those extra guests. You won’t find a factory TV here, but there’s a spot ready for one, complete with HDMI wiring. There’s also a double bunk in the back by the bathroom.

Kitchen Features

In the kitchen, you’ll find everything you need to whip up a meal. There’s a nice space under the sink for your trash can, which is always a plus. But, keep in mind, there’s no fancy folding cover for the stovetop, so you might want to bring along a cutting board for extra counter space. It’s a bit tight for counter space, but it’s workable.

This RV brings the weight and cost down while bringing in some modern touches.

Bathroom Features

While the bathroom isn’t huge, it’s got what you need. Right-handed folks will find it more comfortable due to the placement next to the shower curtain. There’s a vent fan up top (yes, they kept it!), and the taller ceiling means no head-bumping for the taller folks among us.

There’s plenty of space around the toilet!

Bedroom Features

The bedroom in the SLX 260BH keeps it basic with a camp queen bed. You could switch it out for a true queen if you like, though you’d be doing a little dance around the edges. You’ll find TV hookups here if you want to add a little entertainment to your private retreat.

There’s enough space for a full queen bed here if you want it!

Traveling in the 2024 Jay Flight SLX 260BH

Here’s where the SLX 260BH really shines. It’s lighter weight and less costly, making it a breeze to tow with most half-ton vehicles. And Jayco didn’t forget about the important stuff – the RV still boasts a centralized air system, plywood decking, and the structural integrity Jayco’s known for.

These are import tires, good quality import tires, but not the Goodyear Endurance tires RVers typical look for.

Features on the Outside of the Jay Flight SLX 260BH

The outside of this travel trailer keeps things simple. You’ve got double propane tanks, magnetic holdbacks on the baggage doors, and a spot for a telescopic ladder.

Potential Problems With the Jay Flight SLX 260BH

Every RV has room for improvement, and the SLX 260BH is no exception. The kitchen could use a bit more counter space, and a countertop extension would be a handy addition. Also, while the import tires are reliable, some may prefer the Goodyear tires found on other models.
